What can prevent a super elevator to a space station from being invented?

+0
−0

Let's say that space around earth has no debris. Super elevator is some super durable cable between a space station and earth by which some elevator can travel. Space station is in geostationary orbit, so it never changes its position relative to earth's surface.

What can prevent this kind of technology being invented?

(Only in terms of science, not about its usefulness or bewaring of terrorism etc.)


P.S: If more information needed, please tell me, I will provide.
