On 19 December 2018, Elon Musk unveiled a 2-mile (3 km) tunnel below Los Angeles. In the presentation, a Tesla Model X drove in a tunnel on the predefined track (rather than in a low-pressure tube). According to Musk, the costs for the system are US$10 million. [50] Musk said: "The Loop is a stepping stone toward hyperloop.
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 ...
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 ...
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 concept of the Hyperloop was popularized in 2013 by Elon Musk, not affiliated with HyperloopTT. [7] [8] The project was to develop a high speed, intercity transporter using a low pressure tube train which would reach a top speed of 800 miles per hour (1,300 km/h) with a yearly capacity of 15 million passengers. [9] [10] [11] HyperloopTT's ...
Elon Musk is into transportation, whether it's an electric car or a spaceship. Today, he detailed a plan to revolutionize a portion of public transit. It's called the Hyperloop, and it's meant to ...
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.
For a little over a year Tesla and SpaceX visionary Elon Musk has been talking about a revolutionary new way to travel called Hyperloop. Today he announced his designs in a 57-page document ...
