Brendan Quine – ThothX Space Elevator



2016, Science & Technology
Presented By: Brendan Quine

Imagine if you could build a tower straight into space that allowed rockets to launch horizontally instead of vertically saving 30% in energy. This dream may become a reality thanks to Chief Technology Officer of ThothX Brendan Quine. Brendan, whose goal is to build a functional space elevator joined our Gee Whiz pod this year to discuss the logistics behind building a tower into space and why this method of launching is more effective and energy saving. Watch this talk and learn why we need to adopt this method of space travel and just how rock’n’roll space really is.
