Elon Musk is the founder, inventor and CEO of both Tesla Motors and SpaceX. On August 12th, 2013 he released his newest project, Hyperloop. He envisioned this project while pondering a local issue; how do you get from San Francisco to LA as fast and cost-effectively as possible? The current plan is to build a high-speed railway. Yet the name is misleading. This "high-speed" railway would be the slowest of its kind in the world. And due to the high cost of building, maintaining and everyday electricity it is very expensive. The hyperloop is a tube with no friction that generates its own electricity during the deceleration process. It would reach a speed of 400 mph and could take you from city to city in 30 mins. It will create jobs in engineering, construction, etc. Bring innovation back.
