carbon nano-tubes
since we all know the problems with producing nano-tubes on earth involve
nonsymetrical formation of the cylindrical tube, in a micro-gravity envyroment
this effect should be minimized considering the lack of gravity factor to the formation process
this effect on earth could be due to fluctuation in the gravity consant in the core, or the magnetic fied, since magnetic fields have been shown to effect the formation of the tubes in experiments
thus you might need to be out of earths magnetic influence to have a consistant tube,
or if in microgravity a constant magnetic fiel;d may be enough to counteract this effect
let me know some ideas, peace
we would love to have an intro of you. so please do that if you don't mind.

I thought you would answer the questions posted in the intro topic in the general discussion.
i did
so do you have any ideas on carbon nano-tubes

ok i was working doing carpentry and my foreman asked me why we don't use
a vacume system for the space elevator
i thought it was a good idea
althought the transfer of gas back to earth may be tough
but it was a decent idea

Need pumps, and they oughtta be multistage. Also need pumps at different intervals of height, also can't cross the h'i't o' atmosp'r ....... Teth'ring is simpler... But hi, can do this for elevation upto 77 km. After that, too tough. ......
ok
77 km
could it be used to cycle the air flow for the station in orbit?

Yes, need pipes, long enough to encircle earth at 70-77 km height. There is apparently nuttin' on that height, but weather sats and such...... and they dun'need air. But good idea, may be forcibly throwing pac'ts o' air.
