高20公里
通往太空的電梯獲專利
加拿大太空公司Thoth上月獲得「太空梯塔」的美國專利，可望讓太空人搭乘電梯送上同溫層，再由太空船接駁，大幅減少太空旅行的成本。構想的太空塔高20公里，為全球最高杜拜塔的20倍。

ABSTRACT
A freestanding space elevator tower for launching payloads, tourism, observation, scientific research and communications. The space elevator tower has a segmented elevator core structure, each segment being formed of at least one pneumatically pressurized cell. The pressure cells may be filled with air or another gas. Elevator cars may ascend or descend on the outer surface of theelevator core structure or in a shaft on the interior of the elevator core structure. A payload may be launched from a pod or deck at the upper end of the spaceelevator tower. The space elevator tower is stabilized by gyroscopic and active control machinery. The space elevator tower maintains a desired pressure level through gas compressor machinery. Methods of constructing the space elevatorare also disclosed.
