Abstract

The Space Elevator is the most suspicious Space Vehicle transportation method on the articles and Sci-Fi today. Simple description of space elevator is a cable with one end attached to the Earth and the other end 47,000 km long in the space. low budget, all over cost, ride quality and various safety issue concern with the space elevator. In that structure designed to transport material form surface to geostationary earth orbit and deep space. All research shows that the idea about how to design and construct the space elevator in theoretically, its practical realization could follow from the mass production of high strength materials and components. This paper is focused to the major issue related to the space elevator concept tented to focus on either environmental or safety concerns. The environmental issues deal with the effects of the natural environment on Earth and in space would have on the space elevator system. Some of these concerns led to safety issues for public travelling on the space elevator as well as for others on earth and in space some serious failure. As a result of which we save the space elevator components with various environmental hazards and taking precaution of them.[4][1]
