Vactrain: Travelling by Train from Shanghai to London in 1 Hour
Acerca deste livro eletrónico
A vactrain is a conceptual design for an extremely high-speed rail vehicle that is currently under consideration. It is a maglev line that operates in tubes or tunnels that are only partially evacuated. Because of the decreased air resistance, vactrains may be able to move at very high (hypersonic) speeds with just a little amount of power, reaching speeds of up to 6,400-8,000 km/h (4,000-5,000 mph). This is five to six times the speed of sound in the atmosphere of the Earth as measured at sea level.
