A given address contains the proposal to equip the International Space Station with the long rope and to create on that base a Space transportation system. The rope itself is fixed to the "bottom" surface of the station and at equilibrium state is located along the Earth radius down the Earth center. When oscillations are excited the whole system looks like a Space oscillator. The rope's tag is equipped with the special device with the docking unit, where to the payload is delivered by the rocket from the Earth. A given system has the multifunctional purpose.
- The rope system could execute the function of booster and by means of existing rockets to deliver the payload of much bigger mass forward to the station and back to the Earth.
- The rope system could be the base for creating of alternative system of station angular orientation.
- To utilize the rope system to launch small satellites from the station and to return them back.
