Just a regular elevator, not a space elevator, not a hyper-tube, not a launch pad.
You get in, the doors close, you pick a floor, Ficsit approved elevator music commences.
I need it, its my asthetic.
I live in low income apartments in Michigan. Theres a lot of bullshit that comes with these types of places that I just have to accept, but this is where I draw the line. Only one out of two elevators has been working for the last 2 months and both of their safety certifications expired February of 2020. The landlord knows and doesn't seem to care. Is there anything I can do to go over her head about this? I can't afford to move or get on the landlords bad side so it would be ideal if any action I take would be anonymous. If I need to provide any more information, please let me know and I'll add what's needed.
Edit: I don't know if it's important, but I, along with most people in this building, am on disability.
The colonel awaits patiently yet concerned before the docking hatch, Isichiel to his left, Billy and Rollyus to his right. The hatch hisses out steam and the doors open. Out comes a space marine, a cape draped over his cataphracti terminator armor. The marine's dark green and grey armor glistens in the light. The Space marine holds in his left hand his helmet and his right hand holds the hilt of his sheathed sword. The helmet-less face looks down at the colonel, the first generation marine takes his hand off his sword and holds it out. The colonel steps forward and shakes it before stepping back. The marine lowers his hand back upon his blade's hilt.
Space Marine: Colonel Walter Stahlfaust.
C: Chapter Master Hunyadis, we are honored that you have chosen to visit us.
MH: I hear you plan a crusade within the Steppos Cluster. Is this true or is it a ploy like the scorpion riding upon the turtle's head?
C: I plan to reclaim the entire steppos cluster. I also do not plan destroying the crusade and myself during the process.
MH: Why was I not consulted? The Thebian System is within it's boarders.
C: We were not certain if you wished to ... assist us in the reclamation of the steppos cluster.
MH: Why would I not wish to not only serve the emperor in crusade, but to also reclaim the systems once granted to my chapter as their worlds of protection and recruitment?
C: I ... was merely uncertain about if the honorable and fearsome Imperial Sphinxes, defeaters of renegades and masters of such a mighty fleet would assist in my relatively local crusade.
MH: Are you implying you wish to keep it within the boundaries of the Steppos cluster?
C: That is the original plan. I do not wish to overextend, even with such a powerful crusade at my disposal.
MH: Interesting. As the raven does of the fox, I may have underestimated you colonel.
C: I am honored you even thought of me at all honorable chapter master.
MH: I shall have my ship refuel here and rally my chapter to join your crusade.
C: Thank you.
MH: Mention it not, for would I be a true servant of the emperor if I gave him my faith yet denied him my service?
C: I am uncertain, I would believe not.
MH: Hm, an answer I have heard from many, yet not from many I have heard their uncertainty.
C: I presume a good thing?
MH: Yes. I shall return to my vessel, I look forward to battling alongside you holy saint of the emperor.
C: As I do you honorable chapter master.

My friend and I have been loving the game but this "final" hurdle just seems to be too much. To finish within any reasonable amount of manufacturing hours requires thousands of machines and it's killing my drive for the game. The game needs some way of copying productions with some end game content to reduce repetition. Perhaps some construction drones that copy a blueprint/zone would be applicable so we did not have to build the base processing anymore.
I'm curious how everyone else is tackling this challenge.
This is for a school project, but I couldn’t find the information anywhere and my teacher said she doesn’t know it either. That’s why I decided to post here.
I’m researching the physics of a space elevator, but I’ve got no idea how to calculate how heavy the climbers can be without the cable breaking. I also don’t know if it’s different from calculating the maximum mass of a climber in a normal elevator. Does anyone know where I can find more information about this?
Hi all, I read a science fiction book when I was a kid (maybe 2008) about a space elevator that’s threatened by terrorists. I don’t remember if it was YA or for adults. I remember something about trials to be an astralnaut (I swear they use this word instead of astronaut), the protagonist doesn’t make the cut to be one of the three astralnaut a who go up, but then someone gets sick so he gets in as a replacement. There’s also a love interest who agrees to be engaged to someone else so she can be allowed to go up— I think she was a scientist? I remember there being a French astralnaut too. Thanks!
Can’t you place a space elevator below or above the equator? The tether would leave the ground at an angle but it would be parallel to the centrifugal force from the planet’s spin.
Hey everyone, first time posting here. Im having trouble remembering an exploration/platformer game that included an elevator to the moon (not a space elevator per se but a literal elevator like what you'd see in a hotel), a pyramid with a lava level inside, and a puzzle involving a hedge garden maze with a cage in the middle. I think the goal was to collect a certain number of jewels or objects.
I know this sounds bizarre and it totally was a very weird game. It was a first person 3d modeled game but looked very indie or amateur, but it was really interesting.
Any ideas?
In the deep stone crypt raid, you travel into space on a space elevator. When I first saw it, I was amazed at just how fast you go into space, so I decided to do some math.
Assuming the orbital platform orbits Europa at the same distance as the ISS orbits the Earth (408km),
(Accounting for Europa's 4.1x smaller size, distance is now 99.5km)
And it takes 8 seconds (roughly) for the full animation of you travelling into space to go from start to end.
You travel at an average 12,400m/s, which is 36.3x the speed of sound.
A rocket leaving the earth's orbit travels at an average 7,900m/s.
Wtf.
(Of course, this could be completely wrong as I can't find anywhere the actual height the orbital platform orbits at, but I was just curious).
Look at the walkway where Kylo Ren met his dad. No rails on that!! Rails would prevent sagging as well. Kylo and General Hux walk around in the Starkiller Base Control Area with no rails around anything. Kylo is seen on one in SKB when he tells Phasma that Rey is just learning her powers. Vader walks over one at his house on Mustafar to meet Krennic. In the command center on Scariff, there are people walking around on an elevated workspace above the lookout window with no rails. The surfaces are slick, and I bet those shoes are Cole Haan with no treads.
Is it because rails would take up visual space and make the scenes less impactful? Or do these people really not fear falling? Strangely enough, there were rails when Jyn ran out to reset the satellite dish.
Ive discovered there is no autosave when I tried to load the game after trying to send the next package in the space elevator while it was empty and succeded...
Is there a way to reset the space elevator?
