A couple of more videos…
May 9th, 2011
Two more Space Elevator themed videos I’ve found on YouTube…
The first is an interview with Jason from Team Skyhook. I think they were going to compete in the initial Power Beaming competition, but as I wasn’t there, I’m not sure. The video is recent (April of this year) and talks about an Engineering Expo last year and the SPACE ELEVATOR PROGRAM at the University of Idaho. Really? A program dedicated to this? I will be sending him an email, for sure. The video is basically a promo piece for the University…
.
And the other video I have for you today is one from (I think) Israel. I think this is a beam-powered climber, but I’m not sure. It’s about a year old.
.
It’s amazing how many videos are on YouTube that are found by using the term Space Elevator but are not really related to what we’re interested in…

Im from U of I, currently involved in the space elevator program-that video was from over a year ago, and sadly, the previous team leader and founder (the one in the video), has since graduated. im privledged enough to work on the project in the last 3 years, and continue to keep the project moving forward.
