The Sky-Reaching Tower Rising From the Ground
Editor: Henyee Translations
At an altitude of 36,000 kilometers, on an astronomical observatory space station, a man wearing a white work shirt stood in front of the thick porthole glass, looking at the vast starry sky from a distance.
There were more than ten towering starships parked in space.
The thick and long robotic arms were stacking the steel skeletons to the correct position. Engineering drones came out of the cabin, entwining the magnificent outline like fireflies while constantly flashing with faint but obvious electric sparks.
The space section for the space elevator was taking shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If one were to take a high-resolution photo of the space station every hour, one could clearly feel the difference by comparing the photos.
"It seems they are really getting to work."
The man who said this was Field, a special observer who was sent here recently by the North American Space Agency.
