	HistoryLink Essay: Space Needle -- A Snapshot History
		The Space Needle, a modernistic totem of the Seattle World’s Fair, was conceived by Eddie Carlson as a doodle in 1959 and given form by architects John Graham Jr., Victor Steinbrueck, and John Ridley.
		The concept for the Space Needle was born in Stuttgart, Germany, when in 1959 Seattle World’s Fair Commission chair Edward E. “Eddie” Carlson dined in a restaurant atop that city’s broadcast tower.
		The Space Needle’s scale and novel shape were originally accented with a garish paint scheme, including “Orbital Olive,” “Re-entry Red,” and “Galaxy Gold.” During the Fair, the tower’s base housed an exhibit devoted to “Dentistry Through the Ages of Man,” and the top house peak blazed at night with a giant natural gas torch.

	Kamla v. The Space Needle Corporation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Space Needle moved to strike the declaration on grounds that it contained inadmissible hearsay that is not proper evidence on summary judgment under CR 56(e).
		Finally, the court held that Space Needle was not liable for failing to warn Kamla of the moving elevators because the hazard presented by the elevators was obvious.
		Space Needle admits that it retained authority to enforce safety measures, that it controlled the elevator at the time of the accident, and that it could have shut down the elevator before Kamla's accident.

		Space Needle got a better deal, but not without a price (it was later discovered that a Yes album released within months of Moray Eels bears an uncanny resemblance to Dean's Space Needle design).
		Space Needle had been given complete artistic freedom by Zero Hour so the label had no idea how the record sounded.
		The Moray Eels Eat The Space Needle came out both quietly and noisily; too quietly for the level of anticipation they had built with Voyager, and quite noisily on record, as the record dove full on into the sphere of guitar squalls and cymbal crashes.

		The Space Needle was burdened by slow response times for a critical point-of-sale application over the network.
		It was clear to The Space Needle that another alternative was required — moving the data to another point-of-sale application was not a feasible alternative.

		Space Needle : The Moray Eels Eat the Space Needle
		Space Needle has a couple of trademarks that it employs on this record, which include starting a variety of songs in a very quiet, almost inaudible way ("Where the Fuck's My Wallet?," "Hyapatia Lee") and using ray-gun-like feedback.
		If Space Needle could take the length of its pop flops and apply that to their tedious, extended musical passages, they could create a record that has explosive dynamics across the board.

	MISCMEDIA.COM: Space Needle
		While the future the Space Needle predicted (it helped inspire the look of The Jetsons) never happened, and the age it came from passed long ago, it remains a beloved symbol of Seattle and an icon of a bygone belief in a late-industrial, pre-computer tomorrow.
		The revolving, donut-shaped dining room evokes what was considered wondrous in '62: Space Patrol uniforms on the servers, fine suits and dresses on the clientele, rich paneling on the walls, rich food on the tables.
		In its 35th year, the uniforms and the decor have become more commonplace (the walls are now as grey as the view on an overcast winter day; the ceiling has that speckled-relief effect made infamous by suburban condos).

		NASA Studying Space Elevator Concept By Mal Gormley Originally published September 9, 2000 The concept is older than space flight and has been proposed by such respected space travel visionaries as Arthur C. Clarke and Konstantin Tsiolkovsky: Construct a colossal elevator in geosynchronous Earth orbit and attach it to a tower on Earth.
		The Space Elevator concept is a structure extending from the surface of the Earth to geo-stationary Earth orbit (GEO).
		With the space elevator, the counterbalance above the geosynchronous point acts as an opposing force, not unlike tying a bunch of helium balloons to a cable.
