Hyperloop One, a super high-speed rail technology company, announced today that it conducted a comprehensive test of its super high-speed rail technology in a vacuum environment for the first time on May 12. In the test, Hyperloop One's super high-speed rail vehicle-using magnetic levitation technology, achieved a speed of 70 miles (1 13 km) at the test site in Nevada.
Co-founder Shi Owen? Bishop called the test a "historic moment" for Hyperloop One and thought it was as important as the Wright brothers' "first flight".
Hyperloop One is preparing for the next phase of testing, with the goal of increasing the speed to 200 miles (322 kilometers) per hour. The concept of super high-speed rail was put forward by elon musk on 20 13. Theoretically, it can transport passengers or goods at a speed of 750 miles per hour (1207 km).
Pisif said in a statement, "Hyperloop One fully tested the super high-speed rail system for the first time and achieved an unprecedented feat."
In June 5438+last year1October, Hyperloop One began to build a 500-meter-long "DevLoop" test lane. Hyperloop One said that it will continue to test DevLoop in the coming months to "verify its new generation of components and software". In the next phase of the test, the vehicle will travel in a longer test lane at a higher speed.
