University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

Abstract: To leave Earth’s gravity well and ascend into Cislunar space takes ingenuity, and the engineering feats of many. Now to propel humanity further into space, rockets will need assistance to provide the large requirements of mass to be used for space structures. Tsiolkovsky’s Rocket Equation greatly limits the advantages of rockets and leaves an opening for Space Elevators to assist in a dual space access approach. By moving a large amount of mass routinely, efficiently, environmentally friendly and with daily launches towards space. Along with the apex anchor situated at 100,000 km for emergency assistance across all Cislunar space, and to act as both storage facilities and a construction zone. Space Elevators are the railway to space and can supplement rockets by transforming how mass is transported to Cislunar space and beyond.
