The first stage of the competition among developers of booths took place in the end of last year, the second took place in the summer. Then the representatives of the company said that will continue the tradition and make the third stage. Now the company Elon musk has opened registration for the competition which will take place next year. It is expected that during the third wave of testing, the developers will demonstrate the truly breakneck speed on their capsules.
The winner of the second stage was the team of German engineers, whose capsule was able to be dispersed in the vacuum tube to 324 kilometers per hour. But the Musk and Tesla is interested in building your own Hyperloop transport system, so, too, have reserved something interesting. Last week, its engineers decided to test a capsule of its own design and managed to overclock it right up to 355 kilometers per hour.
Elon Musk is confident that SpaceX test site is very well suited for running Hyperloop technology — it was there, according to him, has created all necessary conditions in order that the capsule could reach the necessary speeds.
Despite the fact that to implement the idea of a vacuum transport system is still far, a test track gives developers the opportunity to run their own offspring at different stages of their creation.
