though a rocket seems like it moves straight above, it actually revolves around earth many times before reaching its target orbit.
And here I was thinking a rocket goes straight up into space. Glad I picked this up here. There's no telling what one would learn on the steemstem tag everyday.
Superb article by the way. If the space elevator finally sees daylight, even I could fulfil one of my dreams of seeing space. We hope it wouldn't be too expensive though.
