In today's world, we are all concerned about natural resources and infrastructure. Hyperloop One is a company that is trying to address future transportation needs with a very unique idea. Hyperloop technology functions like the pneumatic tubes that everybody uses at the bank. It uses a vacuum tube that will transport passengers in a pod up to 600 mph. For example, it would take 20 minutes to travel from Las Vegas to Los Angeles. If you drove your car it would take you almost 4 hours. The hyperloop solution would not only speed transportation, but would also significantly reduce pollution and dependence of natural resources.
Elon Musk, the entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, is involved with this effort and based on his past performance, we should expect great things. Although there are still some challenges to address like gravitational forces and maintenance of the vacuum, the prototype being built in Nevada is promising.
I like how the Hyperloop One company is saving natural resources and reducing pollution. It is great how people can get to certain destinations at a faster rate. This is a radical idea that will change the world.

This is such a futuristic idea and if this is executed well and is made safely it will be an amazing invention.
