"This technology could make working and living in 2 different cities a norm" - 100 Dollar one way ticket. Sure

@existnt

I thought the whole point of high speed rail was to avoid being locked in a pressurised metal cylinder!

@MeepRamsay

God. Can you imagine how terrifying it would be to be on that train and then the power shuts down or the train stops or something? You'd be stuck in over a hundred mile-long tunnel that is almost completely airtight.

@saniwada

Elon musk didn’t invent the hyper loop idea, it was created by Robert Goddard in 1904. That’s why musk hasn’t copyrighted the idea.

@airiusadam2889

And when the train stops in the middle of the tracks, safe to say its going to be "breathtaking".

@gerogi.3340

28 Passengers? Wow! I mean imagine that much in one train. And yes, building tunnels able to hold 99% vacuum over multiple kilometers, way better than a two lines of stupid metal. Definetely the future

@Leon-wd3ng

My main 2 concerns are what will happen if:
1. The machine breaks down in the middle of the tunnel for whatever reason.
2. Fails to stop.

@jodybingo

You need better journalists who actually investigate the work they produce.

Can't wait to come back to this video 10 years later and say "Boi, they were wrong! "

@iononionunion8682

this is what we call overengineering. create expensive pet projects with no scalability for a problem with a much easier, cheaper and efficient solution.

@Anonarchist

You can ride the hyperloop right now in Las Vegas at a blistering 30 miles per hour!

@inconspicuousname2925

This is like that scene from the Incredibles. But a longer carriage

@rugs777

Ahhhh it’s almost like a worse version of a train. Good job Elon

@Citizen-of-theworld

Has anyone commented energy required to hold a 99.9% vacuum? Or to install and maintain the vacuum pumps running constantly along the entire length of the tube? That must be a significant challenge and an expensive one at that!

@lotterlisa3859

"This technology could make working and living in 2 different cities a norm". That's called rebound effect. That's why this technology doesn't improve anything. It's an incentive for additional journeys, so it won't reduce pollution and it won't reduce total population travel time.

@ahmedmegahed3898

The concept of the train’s magnets were literally a 2012 meme.

@7_y1ar

My country still upgrading to simple modern trains: how about 50 years and it will be here
