In August 2013, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk released a 57-page white paper concept for Hyperloop — a supersonic mass transit system between high-traffic cities that lie within short distances. The founder of Tesla Motors and SpaceX envisioned it to be a frictionless system where pods inside low-pressure, vacuum-sealed tubes would transport passengers and cargo at up to 760 miles an hour — approximately the speed of sound. Powered by solar energy, it would be strong enough to withstand extreme weather and earthquakes.

    I think this will NEVER happen, hypersonic speed would be a super bad idea especially in a vacuum chamber like that. It will also NEVER reach a top speed of 750 mph. The fastest land vehicle went 763 mph and, even in a vacuum chamber there is something called FRICTION it slows things down with DRAG. So many people have proved that it is not going to be able to happen, and thats IT.
