Vacuum-Tube Hyperloop
Passenger and cargo pods traveling through near-vacuum tubes at speeds up to 700 mph using magnetic levitation. The low-pressure environment eliminates air resistance.
Why It Matters
It could make a 350-mile trip take 30 minutes at a fraction of airline cost, connecting cities into mega-regions and reducing short-haul aviation emissions entirely.
