For information about other means of achieving orbit (and much more), check this page, under 'papers', starting with 'Dynamic Compression Members', continuing with the three 'Orbital Ring Systems and Jacob's Ladders' papers and finishing with 'Supramundane Planets' through to 'How to Move a Planet'. I remember reading these papers in the JBIS and being quite impressed with them -- I particularly liked 'Supramundane Planets'.
