>>13089292Space elevators won't work on Earth, gravity is too high. You can definitely get one working on the moon though, potentially Mars as well and they'd be useful for moving large amounts of freight up and down from orbit. You need a good counterweight though, probably a small captured asteroid.
Anyway /pol/ is too dumb to talk about space related topics with any degree of accuracy, too many "space is fake" and flatearth glowies cluttering up the place.
