We kick things off with a profile of LiftPort, a commercial space endeavor operating out of a small garage in rural Washington State that has been funding its dreams of spaceelevators through crowdfunded Kickstarter campaigns.
We were certain that this was just a "pie in the sky" concept, but apparently engineers are hard at work designing those futuristic spaceelevators that promise to eventually whisk cargo and humans to the final frontier at a fraction of the cost of rocket-based delivery systems.
