Globasyst: Good for miners. Bad news for mine owners.

Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to watch the news without having to hear about another mining disaster?

That day is coming. Soon, we hope, because we’re running out of ecosystems to pollute.

One of the most misleading phrases in the English language is the term ‘Safe Mining Practices’.

There is simply no such thing.

One of the biggest issues in Australia currently is the creation of the Adani Mining Project. In early 2019 this story hit the news:

February 12, 2019

The Australian Marine Conservation Society has slammed Adani today for their second licence breach in two years, in which coal-contaminated water overflowed from their Port at Abbot Point into the Nationally Significant Caley Valley Wetlands during last week’s heavy rainfall.

That’s right. While they were still in court being prosecuted over the release of coal contaminated water into the waters surrounding the Great Barrier Reef, they did it AGAIN.

One of the busiest departments in any mining company is their PR and Marketing Department. Their job is to make it seem like Mining Giants are just big, fluffy teddy bears who are there to create a wonderful comfortable future for us all. Nothing could be further from the truth.

In the case of the Adani mine in north eastern Australia, the debate has been mine Vs Great Barrier Reef.

The Great Barrier Reef is responsible for the creation of arguably the most beautiful and vast system of beaches on our planet. It is the basis of around $20 billion in annual revenue for Queensland and the Adani mine is in the process of killing it.

By comparison, the Adani mine has created a couple of thousand temporary jobs and the mine itself has been criticised as ‘Not Economically Viable’ so why is it still going ahead? You need to dig a bit but you will find a handful of people making a hell of a lot of money building infrastructure projects and other related business to support it. The answer therefore is GREED.

But this is just one of countless stories from around the globe. Do a search on ‘Environmental Mining Disasters’ and you will have reading matter for the next year or so.

But Globasyst is not against mining – OR MINERS.

We just want to get it done somewhere it doesn’t impact our ecosphere. We want to do it out in space and its not that difficult.

In the course of identifying appropriate asteroids for habitat creation and food production, we will also be looking for mineral resources. While earth is huge in terms of mass, we are only technologically capable of accessing 0.0006% of it, and that’s if we somehow get rid of all the oceans and make every square inch of the planet a mine.

What we actually have access to is more like 0.000006%.

The asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter contains material which is estimated to be around 4-5% of the Earth’s total mass. It doesn’t sound like much but the key here is the fact that it has been broken into manageable chunks by the formation of our solar system. We can access, and potentially mine, ALL of it. That means that in this tiny area alone we have more than 5,000 times more minerals than on all of the earth.

That’s why we LOVE miners. We are going to need a lot of them to convert all this wealth. If you want to talk about creating mining jobs, this is where it starts – Globasyst.

Collision Protection

Getting the elevator built is one enourmous challenge but once its up there we don’t want it getting blown out of the sky.

globasyst globe assist

There are currently thousands of pieces of debris orbiting the earth from the fingernail sized chips of paint which cracked the shatter-proof glass of the space shuttle to objects weighing tens if not hundreds of kilos.

These objects are orbiting the earth at speeds in excess of 28,000kmh. A 50calibre bullet has an initial velocity of just over 3,000kmh.

This means that relative to the space bridge, any object in low earth orbit will impact with nearly ten times the force of a 50 cal bullet. The effects of such an impact on the space bridge’s tether, or indeed the orbital platform itself would be devastating.

To address this issue the project will need to build a substantial protection network as well as looking at a way to clean up our near earth orbital zone and minimise this threat.

There are currently a number of proposals in the scientific community which address this issue and we will put together a team whose goal is to design the appropriate measures.

The Elevator Shaft

globasyst globe assist

To create the elevator shaft or tether to our Space Station, we first of all need to construct the strongest and most durable material know to man.

In short we are talking about a material strong enough to carry up to than 50,000 times its own weight. This material also needs a substantial degree of flexibility as well as a range of other factors.

While this all may sound like fantasy at the moment scientist have in fact developed a potential solution to this problem. Click the button to find out more.

The little blue stick has to be strong enough to carry the enourmous green ball.

It's a challenge...

Once we do have the material strength problem solved, however, we then have the issues facing engineering, design and functionality. I know I have my preferences as to how this may be tackled but, needless to say, this is one of the major areas of the project where an expert team is crucial.

Once again it all relies on funding but then that’s exactly what we are here for.

At present the most promising option as the linked article explains, is Graphene.

Graphene is a fantastic 2D material. It is 200 times stronger than steel, transparent, flexible and conducts electricity better than copper. However, graphene can only be made commercially in little bits with the current technology.

Take for example, the ‘200 times stronger than steel’ property. You can’t make full use of that at the moment because the current commercial state is to produce graphene from graphite using the top-down method. This makes graphene as nano plates that are typically 400 nanometers long. To give an idea of how small this, look at the edge of a piece of copier paper, which is 100 microns (100,000 nanometers) thick. You could fit 250 of these graphene nanoplates across the edge of that piece of paper.

That’s all great but then you have to stick these plates together and we start getting into some real high tech areas of development.

Read through the attached article and do a bit of a search yourself.

Once we can afford to do the research, its a small jump to our next EUREKA moment.

The Orbital Space Station

Easily the most expensive aspect of this operation will be the creation of the Geosynchronous Orbiting Space Station (GOSS).

This is the top floor of the elevator and will effectively be the weightless mooring from which the construction of the entire network will begin. It would be almost impossible to build the elevator’s tether from the ground up. The only practical way to construct it is to build it in orbit and feed it back down toward the Earth’s surface.

There are two ways to build the GOSS.

globasyst globe assist

The first is relatively simple. We just ship everything necessary up on the back of rockets. Easy as this sounds we’re talking potentially thousands of tons of mass in order to achieve this and the base ratio for fuel to mass in order to achieve orbit is 10:1.

That means for every ton of equipment & people to be lifted we need to burn 10 tonnes of fossil fuels.

This might be technically doable but the environmental cost will need to be considered very carefully and it’s highly likely that it will not be worth the risk.

The second option is to identify a suitable candidate in the asteroid belt and attach a propulsion unit to it. We can then nudge the asteroid back towards our planet and park it the necessary orbit above our Earth Base.

This is technically a more difficult proposition but the bulk of the operation would be done remotely using robotics and the payoff would be potentially enormous.

The asteroid we use would be selected based on the materials it contains and how useful they would be in constructing the space station and tether. By doing this we would shortcut our way to having the ingredients necessary right where we need them – already in orbit.

This whole aspect of the project is for the big brains and we need to get them on board first.

That takes exposure and interest so share us with gusto. We love your support.

Earthside Base

globasyst globe assist

The Earthside Base will be ground floor for our space elevator.

The location will need to be on or near the equator in order to use the earth’s rotation to follow the Space Station’s geosynchronous orbit around 50,000kms or more above us.

There is a chance such a base could be built on land but it’s important to remember, the Space Station above is not locked to a static location.

The most promising location for our Earth Base will actually be out in the ocean. This will give the Earth Base the option to shift position, to some degree, and there are any number of reasons to do that including bad weather or collision. Mobility could come in real handy.

It will take an enormous amount of material to create this floating platform but we have a pretty innovative solution for that issue. Ever since it was first created, plastic has been finding its way into our oceans from all around the world.

Over time this plastic has collected in five major zones across all our oceans. Most of it, however, has collected in the middle of the North Pacific Ocean in a huge plastic ‘slick’ referred to as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

Click the link above to find out more on this.

Essentially the Pacific Patch alone is around the same size as Australia and contains what is estimated to be a mass of several hundred million tonnes.

What we are proposing is simple. We fit out ships specifically to net and collect this plastic. Once they bring it aboard, it gets placed in a furnace and melted down.

As it cools, bubbles of gas are blown into it to give it buoyancy. Then it is extruded and 3 meter square cubes. These cubes are then inserted into modular frames that form the foundations for our floating Earthside Base islands.

Simple, right?

There are certainly other ways to create an Earthside Base but with this method we’re finding a use for all the plastic crap that is currently choking the life out of our most important resource – the ocean.

Let’s not forget, more than 80% of the oxygen we breather comes from the ocean. Surely it would be a positive move to try and clean it up.
