Entrepreneur and Tesla Motors CEO Elon
Musk will publish an “alpha design” for Hyperloop, an entirely new form
of public transportation that is faster than the bullet train and
potentially self-powering, on August 12.
Details about Hyperloop are slim, but it’s clear that as always Musk has lofty ambitions for the project. He has described it in the past as a “cross between a Concorde, a railgun and an air hockey table,” although that says little as to its form factor or underlying technology.

Musk, the man behind both Tesla Motors
and SpaceX, has spoken about a high-speed transportation system known as
the Hyperloop, a tube transport system that would allow passengers to
travel at high speeds. The proposed system could reduce trips between
San Francisco and Los Angeles to minutes, and reaching the East Coast
from California could take under an hour. Crazy as it seems, the company
ET3, based out of Longmont, Colorado, has already been hard at work
making this a reality...
