A couple of more videos…

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…

One thought on “A couple of more videos…

    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.
