The hyperloop — a near vacuum tube where pods would travel inside via magnetic levitation at hundreds of miles per hour — ...
technology - which is already used in some transport systems - within a vacuum tube. This would reduce friction and air resistance, allowing the train to travel at speeds of 700mph (1,127km/h).
That train only travels 19 miles ... Instead, it features a low-vacuum tube system to reduce friction, which is similar to ...
The hypothetical tunnel between the U.S. and the UK has been branded as a "high-risk" project by one of the world's leading megaprojects economists.
It is based on the world's fastest magnetic levitation (maglev) trains, then made faster by speeding along inside vacuum tubes. The Maglev train speed world record was set in 2015 when a Japanese ...
Researchers at MIT designed a vacuum-tube train system for a 45-minute trip from New York City to Boston in the early 1990s. Like Musk's plan, the design called for a magnetic track. Throughout ...
