The Space Elevator, is a proposed structure designed to transport material from a celestial body's surface into space. It would nevertheless be a giant leap for humanity to explore the universe if the "stairway to the heaven" is made possible in the future. The question remains - is it a sci-fi concept or a reality? However, I think there is probably some good chance at achieving this grand dream due to the discovery of carbon-nanotube which is 10 times lighter and 500 times stronger than the steel. Hence, I believe it will be just a few decades away before this grand tour de force is achieved. Hail to the future!
