The US wants Hyperloops without investment in national maglev train lines? Smh

I have name to this project too , its a scam , 100 years in making and no one has come up with an actually working real life model . There is no point to make a train in a tube , when you can get same speed without the tube , hyper loop does not even promise the speed Chinese maglev can do . Shanghai maglev does 431 km/h (268 mph) , and that been operating since 2004 ... and even in China they have problem with too few passengers . Wheel based trains are still cheaper to run , when you dont need to use energy to keep the train off the ground , only to move it forwards .

The US does NOT want this BS. It's like you're believing the hype in some weird way. It's very big scam, as far as I'm concerned. On the other hand, people have invested heavily in utter nonsense before--and will certainly do so again after this is history.

Elon Musk is very smart. He take old ideas, give it new name and let other companies spending money to develop it. He dont even own any hyperloop company yet he get most credit for it, this is free PR for him. He know hyperloop is not going to be fast, safe and cheap as he claimed (he make up those numbers just to get media excited). Hyperloop also slow down HSR development and this will make sure private cars (more Tesla) remain most popular form of transportation in future. He is truly marketing genius, he fooled everyone.

Just 4 small questions, 1) how this vacuum tube hundred of Miles long is going to cope with thermal expansion/contraction between day and night and between winter and summer that can amount to tens of yards? 2) how the passengers will evacuate this pod in a vacuum in case of emergency? 3) what happens to all the supersonic pods in transit in case of a major leak along the way? 4) how much more energy compared to a train is going to be used by the thousands of pumps needed to maintain the vacuum over such humongous vacuum vessel.

a) The vacuum tube is compartmentalised so it isn't continuous. It is a vacuum tube so it doesn't contract or expand without a broken seal. b) Each company has different approaches to evacuation, but it is much the same as subway and tube travel. c) supersonic pods will slow if there is a disturbance and pass through the chambers that are non-vacuum seal at a slower speed. d) Typical trains will be cheaper, this is a premium service until energy becomes far cheaper than it is in decades to come.

Like ribbon rails. Being strongly held down. Leaks ar not that bad, it would just add drag and slow the pods down. One atmosphere is 10 tons per square meter so the energy needed is the same as pumping the same volume of water over 10 meters.

Chad Teslaloop vs Virgin Hyperloop

Chad... yeah. Budapest first metroline was built in 1896 in 2 years, and capable to transport 80000 people per day. Chad teslaloop has trouble to serve the promised 4400 per day.

In Australia a single 14m diameter hardrock TBM driven tunnel could easily be driven Sydney/Canberra from 10 launch shafts in 5 years for $20m to allow a proven 600km/h Japanese maglev. The general public would not go in a pressure reduced tunnel like a plane yet but once they get used to an atmospheric maglev then pressure can be reduced via the ten launch shafts to allow 1,000km/h.

Don't follow the Titanic. Rather, use photon wind tunnel mechanism for propulsion. Strange that no one has thought of it even today. It's safe, and twice as efficient in principle.

Only China has a high speed maglev. It is difficult enough that China only has one and Japan has not completed theirs yet after over a decade of development and 4 decades of study. Only a maglev should be attempted at first by either company. First prove they can build that.

LOL - The race is on! Both Hyperloop TT and Virgin are cranking out CGI after CGI and ordering thousands of neon lights! The best BS artist wins!

Interesting, but a couple of things are different. The tunnel that I mentioned is not a sling shot or a spiral one but has a ring shape for continous acceleration and spacecraft is not bullet-shaped but a rocket with an attached reusable launching system. Additionally, It can use a high mountain for safety issue as well as a little bit rare air condition.

So, a fast train, but with no windows. We now have trains with windows but aren't fast. I'm not in that much of a hurry to sit in a windowless can.

The Reupload let’s hope it doesn’t cut of at the end

Both can win and about another fifty companies doing the same.

Ok, so the tunnels seen unsafe, so what to do ?! Cut the tube in half and have an open air top with the electromagnetic tracks in the bottom half and design the fuselage for aerodynamic down force when at speed and have a second electromagnetic breaking track or tracks that can pull and create down force using sensors that keep the fuselage on track at speed. This configuration will allow access to the fuselage if mechanical problems develop en-route. This will also allow atmospheric air get to a electric turbofan used for propulsion. To save power the electro tracks would only turn on when the fuselage is within 100 feet and turn of when the fuselage is 50 feet down the tracks. The electro breaking system can stop the fuselage very quickly and within acceptable G-force limits in emergency's. The onboard computers will be getting information of whats ahead on the track of up 100 miles or more using video surveillance cameras along the track. Snow, in some areas, will be a problem so the tube is replaced with steel runners positioning the electro tracks on the runners at specific heights along the side and bottom of the fuselages along with the electro breaking systems for drainage purposes. The speed this configuration could make is over 4oo to 5oo mph in good weather with the fuselage have a clear lexan ceiling and also most of the side.

I saw it and suddenly it goes private

But it will take forever to dig the tunnels or build them. Or am I wrong?

I wanna keep all the trains all year and every year.

This is like blue ice and boats in the nether

In other news, HS2 price tag is currently £106bn - and when it's finished, then we'll believe it.

All the animations here show vehicles supported by maglev by the design as shifted to maglev on the roof for Virgin and HARDT. This is the second shift in the support technology as Musk had air-pads in his white paper. There are errors in the white paper as well. Aside from the safe separation of small pods at 1000kph (or even 500kph), how do you safely switch tubes at those speeds? (They can’t slow down because the next pod is right behind them.) If they cannot run at short headways they won’t have enough capacity. The video shows a bladed iris as the air lock. Looks fancy. Completely impractical. Virgin at least has a video with the airlock at the platform. All of these basic problems still unsolved and they think it’s just the matter of building a 1 mile test track? Only 1 mile? The Transrapid maglev test track at Emsland was 31.5km long and the initial test line for the SC maglev was 18.5km. Without similar lengths the hyperloop systems can’t be rigorously tested. There are lots of failed high speed ground transportation - Bennie rail plain, Aerotrain. There are lots of reasons hyperloop will join them and very few it will succeed. It’s the gadgetbahn we didn’t need. Musk is no idiot. He isn’t going to lose his money investing in something that is just a hobby. China should have It’s 600kph maglev test track running by 2025. That’s the real story to follow.

Wall Street Journal is playing it safe apparently! Speaking for the people, but being careful enough to not anger the powers-that-be! 😂😂🤣🤣

If this ever comes to be are they building the track underground?
