Musk floated the Hyperloop idea in 2013 as a way to transport people faster than either high-speed rail or even regional air travel. People would drive into a giant tube, and then be whisked at ...
The above-ground Hyperloop testing tube in Hawthorne had sat idle for several years, drawing complaints about road and pedestrian access, as well as questions of its purpose. Elon Musk's Hyperloop ...
Elon Musk started working on the Boring Company in 2016, as part of his plans to build a Hyperloop — a futuristic form of transport that aims to move people and cargo around underground tunnels ...
Concept art of hyperloop inner workings. Hyperloop is a proposed high-speed transportation system for both passengers and freight. [1] The concept was published by entrepreneur Elon Musk in a 2013 white paper, where the hyperloop was described as a transportation system using capsules supported by an air-bearing surface within a low-pressure tube.
Last year, Hyperloop One, a well-funded startup inspired by Musk’s vision (though not directly affiliated with Musk), threw in the towel after nearly 10 years.
The concept of Hyperloop transportation was first introduced by Robert H. Goddard in 1904. [19] [20] The recent plans for a version of vacuum train called Hyperloop emerged from a conversation between Elon Musk and Iranian-American Silicon Valley investor Shervin Pishevar when they were flying together to Cuba on a humanitarian mission in ...
Elon Musk said his proposed, high-speed transit systems, Loop and Hyperloop, "will prioritize pedestrians & cyclists over cars," in a Twitter thread on Friday. Before either system can become a ...
Hyperloop pod competition test track. The Hyperloop Pod Competition was an annual competition sponsored by SpaceX from 2015 to 2019 in which a number of student and non-student teams participated to design—and for some teams, build—a subscale prototype transport vehicle in order to demonstrate technical feasibility of various aspects of the Hyperloop concept.
