space elevator

NASA officials in London, England have come up with a plan to construct an elevator that can take humans into orbit. The idea is that they can build and elevator from earth into outer space. Scientists are even saying that this may be possible within our lifetimes. They say that this elevator would hypothetically be able to take people to a hight witch would be equal to going to the one-hundreth-thousandth floor of a building. Although construction will not start for a very long time, officials believe that this is well within possible limits.
