They didn't believe me, until two of the dust bunnies showed up and cornered a bunch of zombies.

WHOA! Give those two a raise! Increase their pellets! (Oh. Wait. They make their own pellets, don't they? Never mind.)

I hope this isn't too frightening, but I don't mess with the numbers too much, other than some rudimentary calculations.
I know there are formulas, and places where such things can be looked up, so I just go with the vision part of it.
It seems pretty obvious to me, that every objection raised to the idea of a skystalk on Earth, was dealt with to some extent by moving it to Mars.
The way I see it, a space elevator on Mars would make it an economic powerhouse in the growing system of occupied space.

Yes.
I can't wait to see what comes about when the experiment being conducted by Harmless is done.
What manner of creature shall it be?

What?
Bob. I'm still feeling kinda puny, so cut me some slack, OK?
I can't understand that any more than I can the Pythagorean Theory.

Could also build a space launch rail gun on the moon to sling payloads from Earth lunar orbit into Mars orbit should any resource collection happen on the moon.
Small reactor sould produce enough electricity to power a rail gun capable of such, right?

"I can't understand that any more than I can the Pythagorean Theory" Actually, that's a pretty simple concept, if you look at it geometrically. Both simple and pretty.

This is one of the failed attempts.

Egads, it saw string coming from itself and decided to play with the string.
Horrifically hypnotic, and strangely cute too.

"Small reactor should produce enough electricity to power a rail gun capable of such, right?" My thinking, which seems to be in agreement with many researchers, is that a small robotic factory needs to go up there (the moon) first. It might start with a reactor of some sort, but it would then produce solar cells, electromagnetic rails, and cargo portions to be launched.
The solar cells would provide the power for launch, and probably also the cargo.
