Spaceminers, an entrant in both the 2005 and 2006 Space Elevator Games, has posted four videos on YouTube. As I did not attend the 2005 Games, and I arrived at the 2006 Games AFTER the Space Miners had attempted to qualify, these are all new to me so I’m very glad they have been posted.
The first is their “pre-qualifying attempt” from the 2006 Competition:

This next one is a Solar Powered Space Chair, unveiled at the 2005 Games (I like the music in the background – we need to do this at next year’s Games!):

These last two are from some internal testing (I don’t know when the tests actually occurred – the videos were just recently posted):

Thanks for posting these guys…
