The '''New Mombasa Orbital Elevator''' was a [[Space Elevator]] located at the heart of the [[East African Protectorate]] city of [[New Mombasa]] on [[Earth]]. It was used for lifting heavy ordnance from the surrounding port facilities into an orbital station at the top of the elevator structure, a transport method much cheaper and more efficient than booster rockets filled with expensive fuel. | The '''New Mombasa Orbital Elevator''' was a [[Space Elevator]] located at the heart of the [[East African Protectorate]] city of [[New Mombasa]] on [[Earth]].
