The Importance of Math and Science in Planetary Transport

In theory you could walk to any place on a planet if it had a complete orbital ring and space tower net. Such structures rely on active support, power hungry methods of makin engineering,. relying on energy bundance or super conducting materials. And they give us the option for towers that rise up over skyscrapers, like skyscrapers doe over regular houses, reaching right into space. Indeed, you can even build planets out of them. On the flip side of all that, i should note that walking is likely to always be an option too.
