description
A hyperloop is a theoretical mode of high-speed transportation sketched out by serial entrepreneur Elon Musk. Musk envisions the system as a 'fifth mode' of transportation: an alternative to boats, aircraft, automobiles, and trains.[1] Musk, who has expressed his intent to develop a prototype hyperloop, stated that it "could revolutionize travel",[2] but the technological and economic feasibility of the idea has not been independently studied.

WHOS IDEA?
THE HYPERLOOP WASPROPOSED BY ELON MUSK
CREATOR OF PAY-PAL, TESLA MOTORS AND SPACEX
WHY WE NEEDTHE HYPERLOOP
“HIGH SPEED” RAIL HYPERLOOP
ELON PROPOSED THE HYPERLOOP AS AN ATLERNATIVE TO THE COSTLY CALIFORNIA “HIGH SPEED” RAIL
Safer
“HIGH SPEED” RAIL HYPERLOOP
Expensive Slow Faster Lower cost
More convenient
Immune to weather
Resistant to Earthquakes
Not disruptive to those along
the route
Sustainably self-powering
ELON PROPOSED THE HYPERLOOP AS AN ATLERNATIVE TO THE COSTLY CALIFORNIA “HIGH SPEED” RAIL
THE PRICE TAG
