Russia Will Develop Space Elevators - Part 2

Moscow, Russia (RIA Novosti) Dec 04, 2006

In the last few years, the Space Research Institute has studied the possibility of building a space-elevator cluster that would deliver payloads from the Earth to the Moon and back. Theoretical studies and experiments showed that the cluster should comprise two cableway systems, one in a low circular and the other in a low elliptical Earth orbit, and one cableway in a circular equatorial lunar orbit.
