Safety Design of Hyperloop for Passengers
Hyperloops have been a great idea for about two centuries, there have been many iterations and concepts, however, not really functional prototypes. That is due to the fact that the technology behind this system is very advanced and close to a space environment in terms of the lack of an atmosphere and the lack of friction. It uses the best of both words in reducing friction to the minimum and therefore increasing speed and running (near) supersonic with environmentally free clear energy. It only requires the use of a tunnel and pods which will run inside it and with the use of magnets as propulsion and braking means to accelerate and levitate.
