Take a look at the experimental Hyperloop track in the Nevada desert

The test track is 500 meters long and 3.3 meters wide, and is expected to be piloted in the first half of this year.

Although for many people, Hyperloop is still something that is only available in science fiction movies, but recent images from Hyperloop One show that the technology is gradually entering the real world. These images are about the construction progress of the Hyperloop test track in the Nevada desert, where the ships will be piped in a vacuum tube with super-fast speed.



 


 

Specifically, this line, called DevLoop, is about 500 meters in diameter and 3.3 meters in diameter. It will be publicly tested by Hyperloop One in the first half of this year. People can visit the train after 30 minutes drive from Las Vegas

 


Although the images above will not make many people excited because the experimental train is too short, but now many companies are excited about this super-fast train project. In previous years, Elon Musk introduced the concept of a vacuum tube train for everyone, so they could turn it into a real product.

  

There are companies like Hyperloop One and Hyperloop Transportation Technologies are trying to race against each other to launch ships as soon as possible to the public. It is known that Hyperloop One has encountered many difficulties in recent months. The company made a dramatic rupture last year when its co-founder, Brogan BamBrogan, was charged with trying to lure employees and take over the company
