A Lunar Space Elevator Is Actually Feasible & Inexpensive, Scientists Find
By Sissi Cao • 09/17/19 8:30am

From NASA and ESA (the European Space Agency) to Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, it’s every space institute’s and tech billionaire’s dream to take return to the moon during this century. But while government agencies and space entrepreneurs all focus on building a spaceship to transport humans between Earth and the moon, a pair of young scientists from Columbia University have a distinctly sci-fi-esque idea that may actually work and cost far less than a rocket-spaceship system.

In a paper published on the online research archive arXiv in August, Columbia astronomy students Zephyr Penoyre and Emily Sandford proposed the idea of a “lunar space elevator,” which is exactly what it sounds like—a very long elevator connecting the moon and our planet.

SEE ALSO: SpaceX Is Now One Step Closer to Sending Humans to Mars


The concept of a moon elevator isn’t new. In the 1970s, similar ideas were floated in science fiction (Arthur C. Clarke’s The Fountains of Paradise, for example) and by academics like Jerome Pearson and Yuri Artsutanov.

But the Columbia study differs from previous proposal in an important way: instead of building the elevator from the Earth’s surface (which is impossible with today’s technology), it would be anchored on the moon and stretch some 200,000 miles toward Earth until hitting the geostationary orbit height (about 22,236 miles above sea level), at which objects move around Earth in lockstep with the planet’s own rotation.

Dangling the space elevator at this height would eliminate the need to place a large counterweight near Earth’s orbit to balance out the planet’s massive gravitational pull if the elevator were to be built from ground up. This method would also prevent any relative motion between Earth’s surface and space below the geostationary orbit area from bending or twisting the elevator.


These won’t be problems for the moon because the lunar gravitational pull is significantly smaller and the moon’s orbit is tidally locked, meaning that the moon keeps the same face turned toward Earth during its orbit, therefore no relative motion of the anchor point.

After doing the math, the researchers estimated that the simplest version of the lunar elevator would be a cable thinner than a pencil and weigh about 88,000 pounds, which is within the payload capacity of the next-generation NASA or SpaceX rocket.

The whole project may cost a few billion dollars, which is “within the whim of one particularly motivated billionaire,” said Penoyre.


Future moon travelers will still have to ride a rocket, though, to fly up to the elevator’s dangling point, and then transfer to a robotic vehicle, which would climb up the cable all the way up to the moon.

French start-up launches solar engine
The invention converts the energy produced by PV cells directly into mechanical motion without the need for batteries or power electronics. Its developers claim the robustness of the solar motor can drive water pumps and ventilation turbines for more than 20 years without the need for maintenance.

From pv magazine France.

Auxerre-based start-up Saurea has unveiled an electric motor technology that converts solar energy directly into mechanical rotation.

The company’s first product provides rotary motion able to draw water for agricultural irrigation and to supply fresh air to ventilate buildings.

“It’s the first solar engine in the world,” said Isabelle Gallet-Coty, one of Saurea’s founders. “It revolves entirely around renewable energy and has the particularity of never breaking down.”

Perpetual motion

Unlike conventional electric motors, Saurea’s technology directly converts solar energy to rotary motion without the need for power conversion components, giving the solar engine unusual resilience.

“Electronic power conversion components often need to be replaced,” said Gallet-Coty. Saurea claims it can guarantee maintenance-free operation of its first product for 20 years.

According to the start-up, that will offer financial savings to customers and make the engine particularly well suited for use in isolated areas. The innovative nature of the product has attracted the attention of the EDF Pulse jury, which selected Saurea as one of the finalists in the Sustainable Territories category of its annual competition – the public vote is open until September 26.

Family start-up

The solar engine is the result of research and development work spanning three generations. Inventor Alain Coty has filed five technology patents during his lifetime. His daughter-in-law Isabelle and his son took the product to market and their daughter, Louise, is in charge of business development.

The family business, officially founded three years ago, assembles the solar engines in a workshop in Burgundy in central France and is establishing a distribution network.

Isabelle Gallet-Coty said the sale price of the solar engine is €2,500-3,500, depending on the application. Saurea also offers to deliver the integrated product to pumps assembled by its partners and the start-up intends to expand its product range.

“Right now we are launching our first 130 W mechanical solar engine for pumping air and water applications,” added Isabelle, “for example, to water green walls or power city foggers [which issue clouds of spray and are widely used to combat mosquitoes]. But it’s our intermediate engine. Currently, two more are developed with powers of 50 W and 250 W.”

The question, which goes back to at least 1955 and may have been pondered by Greek thinkers as early as the third century AD, asks, "How can you express every number between 1 and 100 as the sum of three cubes?" Or, put algebraically, how do you solve x^3 + y^3 + z^3 = k, where k equals any whole number from 1 to 100?

This deceptively simple stumper is known as a Diophantine equation, named for the ancient mathematician Diophantus of Alexandria, who proposed a similar set of problems about 1,800 years ago. Modern mathematicians who revisited the puzzle in the 1950s quickly found solutions when k equals many of the smaller numbers, but a few particularly stubborn integers soon emerged. The two trickiest numbers, which still had outstanding solutions by the beginning of 2019, were 33 and — you guessed it — 42.

In April, mathematician Andrew Booker, of the University of Bristol in England, knocked 33 off the list. Using a computer algorithm to look for solutions to the Diophantine equation with x, y and z values that included every number between positive and negative 99 quadrillion, Booker found the solution to 33 after several weeks of computing time. (As you can see, the answer is super, super long.)

Here’s 33 expressed as the sum of three cubes. It only took one of the world’s smartest computers to solve.

Still, this exhaustive search turned up no solutions for 42, suggesting that, if there was an answer, some of the integers must be greater than 99 quadrillion. Calculating values that large would take an insane amount of computing power; so, for his next attempt, Booker enlisted the help of Massachusetts Institute of Technology mathematician Andrew Sutherland, who helped Booker book some time with a worldwide computer network called Charity Engine.

According to a statement from the University of Bristol, this network is a "worldwide computer" that borrows idle computing power from more than 500,000 home PCs around the globe. Using this crowdsourced supercomputer and 1 million hours of processing time, Booker and Sutherland finally found an answer to the Diophantine equation where k equals 42.

And so, without further ado, the question AND answer to the meaning of life, the universe and everything is:

(-80538738812075974)^3 + (80435758145817515)^3 + (12602123297335631)^3 = 42

How does it feel? Glorious? Overwhelming? Like your brain is going to vomit a little? Just be thankful that, unlike in Adams’ search for the truth, the entire Earth wasn’t destroyed in the process.

Passport with US Visa Stamp Stolen? How to get new Visa Stamp?

Passport stolen with US visa

File Police Complaint
The moment you realize that your passport has been lost, you should file a police complaint immediately in the country/city that you are currently in.
If you have the copies of your passport and US Visa, do carry them with you to Police station.
Report Stolen Passport to US Embassy
If your stolen / missing / lost passport had valid US visa stamp, then you should also report the loss to US embassy that issued it to you.

It is possible that your old expired passport carried the US visa stamp, but you only lost the most current active passport (with no US visa stamp).
If your missing passport had no US Visa stamp, there is NO need to report it to US embassy.

Example, if you got your H1B visa stamped in US embassy, Delhi, India, you would report it to them.

Report on US embassy email: Get specific US Embassy or consulate email address.

Lost Passport Email content to USA Embassy
Mention this information clearly in the email:

Email Subject
Passport [STOLEN or LOST or BURNT] with USA VISA – [H1B or H4 or B1 or F1 or ANY OTHER]

Email Body content
Your FULL NAME (First Name + Middle Name + Last Name).
Your Date of Birth (Month-Date-Year).
Your Place of Birth (City + Country).
Your Address in United States (If you are/were staying in USA at time of passport loss).
Your contact EMAIL address.
Email Attachment
Attach these documents to your email:

Copy of Police complaint.
Copy of lost passport – page 1 with your photo and passport number, if available.
Copy of US visa, if available.
Is my Visa still valid if the passport is stolen and Reported missing to US Embassy?
Your US visa is cancelled immediately by US embassy on your report of stolen passport.

The US visa is cancelled automatically to avoid its misuse. Your US visa becomes invalid for travel.

But, if you are currently inside USA and you still have validity left on your i94, you can keep staying in USA even though your visa has been cancelled.
You need Visa stamp only for entering USA. Your stay within USA is governed by your i94 validity.

Secondly, you can normally apply for your visa extensions or amendments like in case of H1B visa. If your application is approved, you will get your nee i94.

Unless you travel outside USA, your situation will remain normal.
If you travel outside USA, you will need a NEW visa stamp from US embassy to re-enter.

I recommend buying a Travel Neck Wallet with RFID Blocking to keep your passport safe and always hanging around your neck.

Missing passport found. Is my US Visa still valid?
You cannot use a visa in your old passport that was previously reported as stolen.

If you reported your missing passport to US embassy, they would have already invalidated your Visa Stamp. Hence, it is no longer valid.

You will have to apply for a replacement US visa at US embassy.

Can US Visa be replaced in USA?
It is NOT possible to replace lost US visa in new passport in USA. You have to travel to US embassy / consulate outside USA to get a new one.
But, your i-94 stays valid and you can stay in USA till its valid.

Can I enter US if my ‘passport with US visa’ was stolen?
If your passport was lost outside USA and it had Visa stamp, you cannot enter USA until you get a new passport and a new US visa stamp.

Apply for NEW Passport
Once you have lost your valid passport, you should apply for a new one immediately with your country’s embassy.

Example, if you are an Indian citizen, you can apply for new passport with Indian Embassy in USA.

Applying for a Replacement U.S. Visa
Lost or stolen U.S. visas cannot be replaced in the United States.
For replacement of a visa, you must apply in person at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate abroad.

Documents required for replacement of lost U.S. visa
Your name, date and place of birth, nationality, your address and phone number.
A photocopy of the lost visa, if available, or the date and place of issuance, if known.
A photocopy of the bio-data page of your lost passport, if available. If not, the nationality and number of your lost passport as well as the issuance and expiration dates, if available.
Written account documenting the loss of your passport and visa: When and how your passport was lost or
stolen.
Copy of the police report for the lost passport.
Scan Passport, US Visa
I strongly recommended to always keep a scanned copy of your passport and visa. This would come handy if you lose the original copies and will help your country’s embassy and US embassy to fetch your records.

You can use free mobile software like CamScanner, or Adobe Scan to scan your document using your iPhone, Google Pixel or Samsung Smartphone.

CamScanner Pro lets you save the scanned file automatically on their cloud server making the file available on every device that you use.

If not using CamScanner premium version, you can either upload the scanned PDF file on cloud service like Google Drive or Dropbox from your mobile.

Hi Mr. Anil, I lost my Indian Passport in USA with Valid USA Visa stamp in it. I have received the new passport from consulate general of India, USA but with no VISA in it. I’m planning to go back to India in some time, Do I have to go for an interview again for a new VISA or is there something like a dropbox service ?

Anil Gupta says: July 16, 2019 at 11:03 pm
You will not be eligible for dropbox as your passport was lost.

You will need to get a new visa stamp to enter US.

Nuts says: June 8, 2019 at 2:34 pm
Hi I lost my Indian passport with us valid visa in New York . I already applied for a reissue of the passport but how am I supposed to get my us visa stamped back on my reissued passport?

Anil Gupta says: June 8, 2019 at 4:18 pm
If you have read the article above, you have go outside of US and get then US visa stamp.
You cannot get new stamp while staying in US as its issued by US embassy.

You also need to send email to US embassy to cancel your lost visa to avoid misuse.

My Indian passport with a valid H1B stamp got stolen in Europe. I have applied for the new passport under "Tatlkaal (emergency)" category. I have flight that leaves in 3 days.

What is the fastest means of getting the H1B visa stamped on the new passport?
US Embassy from which country in Europe will process fastest?

Anil Gupta says: May 22, 2019 at 2:42 pm
You should apply for H1b visa in the closest US embassy. We do not have any data about where you can get it the fastest.

Also, did you create a police report and informed US Embassy by email?

Angela Mclaren says: May 16, 2019 at 6:35 am
The passport with the B1 tourist visa has been lost. The website is directing me to fill in the 1-102 Form. Is this correct ? and if so can you tell me where to submit the form, how much does the replacement cost, and the approximate time it takes to replace the visa

Angela Mclaren says: May 16, 2019 at 6:49 am
I lost a passport with a valid visa to the US. Do I use the 1-102 form to replace?

Anil Gupta says: May 16, 2019 at 8:06 am
Which website are you talking about? Form I-102 is to apply for replacement i94 and not visa.

You should first report your passport loss to police and then to the US embassy that issued your visa. You can find the US embassy address from their embassy website.

I changed my visa from a B2 to an F1 visa while i was in the united states and i got an approved letter but haven’t had the chance to go out of the country to get my new visa in my passport. However, recently my visa that include my B2 visa and passport got stolen. I got my passport but does have my visa. What do i have to do to get my visa back? Do i apply for an F1 visa or a Replacement of a B2 visa? (keep in mind my B2 visa already expired). Lastly can i go to a US embassy in Canada to do it or i can only go to my home country?

If your B2 visa was already expired, then it does not matter as you have to apply for a new B2 anyway whenever you want to use it.

If you want a new B2, you should apply normally.

The F1 visa was never stamped in your passport, so it does not matter either

I lost my valid passport while on vacation in USA, but my B1/B2 US visa is attached to i my old passport which is still with me.
I left USA with a new issued passport, Im worried that my 10 yr. Multiple visit visa will be cancelled

Anil Gupta says: March 16, 2019 at 12:53 pm
Why are you worried that your US visa will be cancelled when it was stamped in the passport that was never lost?

Hi, thank you for this informative article. I am in the process of applying for renewal of my visa. My previous passport expired in 2010 and it had old H1B visa stampings. The current passport has the 2 recent H1B stampings. My previous (old) passport is no longer with me. During the renewal process, I will be submitting the current passport only. Will I run into any issues? Any insight will be highly appreciated.

Anil Gupta says: November 21, 2018 at 7:41 am
Hi Shree,
Did you face any issue with H1B stamping in current passport?
If not, then no need to worry.

Shree says: November 21, 2018 at 9:32 am
Hi Anil, I have not faced any issues so far on the stampings in the current passport. Hopefully, per what you said, they won’t ask for the old passport during the current renewal process. Thanks a bunch for sharing your thoughts! Much Appreciated!!!

Anil Gupta says: November 21, 2018 at 10:14 am
They usually do not ask for old passports if the old passport’s visa stamps have already expired.
Since, you already got newer stamps after the old one, i do not see any issue.

I lost my Passport while traveling back to India from USA at Qutar Airport. I was issued an emergency certificate (EC) for continuing my journey from Qatar to India. After reaching India I got my duplicate (New) pass post issued. My US Visa (Tourist) was issued for 10 years and still has validity for 6 more years. IS there a provision to send my nes passport to US embassy for the Visa stamping for the balance validity period OR should I follow the same procedure of applying for fresh US Visa ?

Anil Gupta says: June 29, 2018 at 6:21 am
You have to apply for new visa in US embassy in the same way you applied it earlier. You can show the old visa copy (if you have it) and they will consider it.

Does the processing of Visa to replace a lost take any longer than applying for a new Visa? Was wondering if it goes through some kind of police investigation process for the replacement .

Anil Gupta says: August 6, 2018 at 8:56 am
If might take a bit longer as US embassy might do some background checks. We can’t really guess as to what they will do.
Normally, if you are re-applying for it in same US embassy that issued it in first place, you should get it faster than any other country/place.
