The Launch Loop →

The Launch Loop is an earth to high orbit launch system… [it] can launch thousands of tons per day to high orbit, and can be built with existing engineering materials for a few gigadollars (mostly for the electric power plant that drives it).

They had me thinking this was feasible up until I read the word “gigadollars”.
