H1

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

So development of hyperloop transportation is being carried on in two ways. Elon Musk is sponsoring student design team competitions, and one start-up company is raising investment funding and trying to create a sustainable hyperloop business.

Hyperloop One (H1) reached an agreement with the United Arab Emirates last November to partner in building it between Abu Dhabi and Dubai (Monday's post). This video is their vision of how it will work for a traveler:



They're also talking with European countries about various routes.

Transportation that will be smoother, faster, safer and cheaper - the world wants this to work. H1 expects to have a viable commercial enterprise in operation for cargo by 2020 and for passengers by 2021.

How fun will it be to watch this unfold 😏
