You've travelled on the land a several times; flown between
cities or countries in an airplane; journeyed from a place to another in a train
or sailed in a boat from a point to another. In August, SpaceX and Tesla Motors
CEO, Elon Musk, revealed his plan for a high-speed, pod-based transportation
system called Hyperloop, which will be designed to take passengers from San
Francisco to Los Angeles in just 30 minutes. A commercial airplane like the
Boeing travels at a speed of approximately 600mph. According to news from the
company, Hyperloop will travel in a tube with speeds of around 800 mph.
According to sketches, the capsule would ride on a cushion
of air forced through multiple openings on the capsule's bottom.
The company, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies Inc. has
requested the help of Patricia Galloway considering her experience in the $30
billion project to expand London's rail network.
By March 2014, the company aims to have an updated detailing
on how a prototype would be built and an actual prototype before the end of
2014.
