What is WSPEC?

The World Space Elevator Competitions (WSPEC) is an international non-profit organization dedicated to advancing space elevator technology. It brings together teams to take part in challenges that encourage bold ideas and new solutions. Through these competitions, WSPEC promotes innovation across science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) and aims to change the way we think about getting to space.

Our Mission

We bring together student and enthusiast teams from across the globe to explore new ideas for space access. WSPEC creates a place for collaboration, creativity, and hands-on competition. Our goal is to build a strong, diverse community that drives real progress and pushes the limits of what’s possible.

Space Elevator

Participants design and prototype space elevators, tethered structures that could carry cargo into space without rockets. The goal is to create a faster, safer, and more sustainable way to reach orbit, with teams exploring lift speed, payload capacity, and energy use.

Power Beam

Participants develop systems to wirelessly transmit energy to moving targets, simulating how space elevators could be powered without onboard fuel. The focus is on efficiency, accuracy, and reliability of energy transfer, with teams exploring beam control, receiver design, and power-to-weight optimization.
