Thanks for the corrections, was done after a few whiskeys last night. Yes I saw the space elevator a while ago, very interesting, this was more a thought experiment in propulsion. Is the escape velocity that you quote from the surface? That's the next bit I need to look into.
Thanks Dave
Hi I've been scratching my head late into the night, and come up with some ideas for a moon pod, I could use a sanity check on the maths and basic idea. Very interested to hear feedback. Post comments here or on my blog...
