The earth doesn't spin in a perfect circle, it acually wobbles a little bit on the axis, so there isnt a stationary point of the poles. Also, although it would be very minute, continental drift might effect the location. |

Impossible to build, a space elevator, perhaps. But these guys seem to attempt to build one anyway: http://liftport.com/ They've tested a climb-robot and set-up a carbon nanotube-factory. See here for "common misconceptions": http://liftport.com/research3.php |
