First proposed by Elon Musk, the theoretical transportation system we call hyperloop would propel people- or cargo-filled pods over long distances through steel tubes. Magnetic levitation and big ...

The year is 2030. You’re in a sleek pod-like capsule that’s levitating inside a low pressure steel tube and accelerating across the country at speeds of more than 600 miles per hour. This is Hyperloop ...

Elon Musk's literal (transportation) pipe dream, Hyperloop One, just hit another critical milestone: The first Hyperloop test track—or really, test tube—is finished. The 1,640-foot long tube doesn't ...

Hyperloop set a new public speed record this month, but with a figure just shy of 300 miles per hour, you could be forgiven for thinking the super-fast train is a bit of a slowcoach. The vacuum-sealed ...

Well, Elon Musk can relax now. Having previously announced his intention to at least build a demonstrator of his Hyperloop transporter for high-speed, high-capacity inter-city transport, he now ...

The promise of hyperloop ranks near the top of the spectacular index: a network of tubes that will shoot people and their things from city to city at near supersonic speeds. But even if you never ...

We step away from the bright lights of CES 2018 to take a close look at Virgin Hyperloop One's full-scale test facility in the Nevada desert. Antuan started out in the automotive industry the ...

Five years ago, billionaire Elon Musk open-sourced his plan for a supersonic train-like thing. Today it's still a work in progress. Eric Mack has been a CNET contributor since 2011. Eric and his ...

While researchers have encountered major headwinds in turning the Hyperloop into a reality, the European Hyperloop Center is still hoping to open the first functional tube by the end of the decade.
