India could have its own Hyperloop system within 38 months
India could have its own Hyperloop system within 38 months
“Past and present modes of transportation simply do not compare to the impressive abilities of Hyperloop technology. This efficient, low-cost vision of the future could be making its way to India in the next few years, according to Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) co-founder Bibop Gresta. He argues a system of high speed tubes that transport people and cargo could help ease the challenges associated with extreme population density and a dearth of infrastructure…”

Difficult to imagine India’s passengers on top of this train riding along.
While reading this article I was thinking of that Californian high-speed rail, which will be finished by 2029. I mean seriously?! 2029 for just a train?!
Pope As far as you can tell? Based on what?
Pope What facts? Please enlighten me.
Pope All of your ‘facts’ come from professional troll Thunderfoot? A guy who built his online career by trolling feminists and creationist kooks? I highly suggest you expand your horizons.
Lin Русский сказка LA to SF does not have a hyperloop. There was talk about making one, but there is no hyperloop open for public use yet. It’s a tech still in testing stages.
Pope How can something that hasn’t existed fail utterly? Are you still mining that Thunderfoot troll for info? An LA SF hyperloop has never existed. Again, you may want to check your facts before your ignorance embarrasses yourself further.
Pope No it didn’t fail because It never existed. Find evidence for me that it existed. And I have no problem calling out those that come into my collection to post things like “as far as I can tell it is pretty much bunk” without facts to back it up. I still live in a world where facts matter. So what you call rude, I call defending facts.
Pope There is NO Los Angeles to San Francisco hyperloop. I live in LA, I drive to SF alot. There is NO Los Angeles to San Francisco hyperloop. The test you’re talking about was the first prototype to test the tech, I certainly wouldn’t hope you expect version 1 prototypes to be commercially viable products and services do you? So again, you’re basing your ‘bunk’ conclusion on a track that was just over a mile long. Furthermore, there was no promise for that test to get to 600mph, that’s for a final commercially viable product, and they stated as much and expect it to get to 350mph once they complete the test track:

Elon’s first SpaceX Falcon launch blew up. Now he has contracts with NASA and the International Space Station. I’m still not quite sure what you’re argument is. Are we that desensitized to reality that we expect perfection immediately? Nothing is obvious.
Your guy Thunderfoot is notorious for trolling for attention and publicity and to get clicks. He makes a pretty penny off his YouTube channel. I recommend you research your sources as well.
Pope It’s not a hyperloop at full capacity. No. It was created as a 3km test track to test the technology. It won’t reach 600mph immediately. As a student of physics, I’d expect you to understand velocity. Simply put, if you drop something from a plane at 1000 feet it will hit the ground with less force and speed than if you drop that same object from 5000 feet. The test track was to test the tech before they scale up, otherwise, they’d spend an obscene budget on something that doesn’t work. So try it with 3km, then scale up, which is what they’re in the process of now.
Pope
It’s not a hyperloop at full capacity. No.I didn’t say it was. So now you’re changing what I say.
I was answering your question “Are you saying that the test hyperloop is not a hyperloop?”
My answer was “It’s not a hyper loop at full capacity. No.”
So no, I’m not changing what you say, you’re removing the context of what I say because it’s more convenient for your narrative. _
Mhkay or MhNot, if the track was long enough to reach that velocity, it very well could have. No one will know until it is scaled for that purpose. Everything else is pure assumption. Assumption is not fact.
I didn’t claim it would reach 600mph immediately.
Your exact words were: “The top speed was about 60mph (90ish kph)… just a little short of the 600mph promised!” -Pope
Simply put, if you drop something from a plane at 1000 feet it will hit the ground with less force and speed than if you drop that same object from 5000 feet.
That isn’t true. You’re forgetting for one that doesn’t happen in a vacuum and two there is a thing: Vₜ
If there’s a vacuum, it would increase the rate of speed and velocity, yes, but when you put something into a vacuum, it does not reach immediate torque. We can come close to immediate torque (not so ironically as Elon has in his Model S Teslas), but we cannot reach immediate torque. Especially in a test track 3km long. Yet. And, again, that was not the intention of the test track, so this is a moot point in its entirety.
The test track was to test the tech before they scale up, otherwise, they’d spend an obscene budget on something that doesn’t work. So try it with 3km, then scale up, which is what they’re in the process of now.
Yeah I know that.
Then your original ‘bunk’ comment as well as the one pointed out above were baseless: “The top speed was about 60mph (90ish kph)… just a little short of the 600mph promised!” -You
Pope In any case, this conversation is getting pointless now since you’ve demonstrated by proxy through your comments about knowing that it was a test and that they would scale up, that your original comment that the hyperloop “is pretty much bunk,” is pretty much bunk.
Iacovos Florides you made my day!
Huhhh
Design is well but practicaly difficult for work
Hi
Cool
Cool
Y my
M.
Cool
wow
Remember t9 omega protocol thanks
