LiftPort Lunar Space Elevator Infrastructure

“Lunar Space Elevators for Cislunar Space Development”

LiftPort Group and its ‘Best in Class’ team of experts have come together (for the first time ever) with a unique, revolutionary rethink of the Lunar Elevator concept. LiftPort’s Lunar Space Elevator Infrastructure (LSEI) is different.

Imagine a millimeters wide thread, secured on one end to the Moon—with the Ribbon stretching out through the Earth Moon LaGrange point, and beyond—with the other end attached to a Counterweight 250,000 km out; the Counterweight is “anchored” by nothing more than the constant tug of Earth’s gravity well. The proposed (LSEI) is a prototype of Pearson’s (Phase I NIAC) envisioned larger Lunar Space Elevator. The major components of the LSEI include the Ribbon, the Anchor Platform on the Moon, the PicoGravity Lab at EML1, and the Counterweight (CW). Each component requires TRL development before they can be deployed. Each offers a serious scientific benefit.

We propose a truly innovative technological development: initial planning on the first deployable Lunar Space Elevator. The entire purpose of planetary-scale tethers should be to accelerate and facilitate the exploration of space. To realize their full potential it is necessary to advance their technological readiness level.
