Reader Chris Radcliff has sent me links to photos of a Space Elevator model which is being displayed at the San Diego Science Festival<\/a>.\u00a0 It looks like a lot of work has been put into this and I congratulate the builders on their effort.<\/p>\n

Chris has this to say:<\/p>\n

Here are a few early iPhone photos of the space elevator model at the Expo:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

It was an incredibly busy day, with over 60,000 people estimated at the park. We had continuous crowds around the space elevator model, and Adrian talked about it continuously from 10:00am to 6:00pm. It was quite a hit!<\/em><\/p>\n

I’ll send more photos (and a better write-up) when I’ve had some time to collect them up.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cheers,

Thanks Chris!\u00a0 And, on a personal note, having just shoveled out my driveway (again), the weather sure looks nice there!<\/p>\n
