Awesome Astronomy - How Realistic is a Space Elevator?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu9-_p7m-4c

Paul Hill, Ralph Wilkins and Dr. Jenifer "Dr. Dust" Millard host.

Damien Phillips, John Wildridge and Dustin Ruoff produce.

From Nov 18, 2022.

An elevator into space - the science fiction future!

No more explosive rockets - ride an elevator into orbit and open up the solar system for human exploration.

But is that realistic or are there just as many risks with the space elevator?
