About
What is Hyperloop?
Hyperloop is a sealed tube or system of tubes with low air pressure through which a pod may travel substantially free of air resistance or friction.
The Hyperloop could convey people or objects at airline or hypersonic speeds while being very energy efficient.
Elon Muskfirst publicly mentioned the Hyperloop in 2012.
Tesla and SpaceXstarted working on the conceptual modeling of Hyperloop in 2013.
By employing magnetically levitating trains in evacuated (airless) or partly evacuated tubes, allowing for speeds of thousands of miles per hour.
In 2018, Hyperloop One has entered into a MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) with the Government of Maharashtra to build a hyperloop transportation system between Mumbai and Pune.
