Imagine a school in New York being able to take a field trip to Los Angeles. Imagine a business traveler able to wake up and go from the United States to China for a business meeting, and be back to see his see his family before the day was over in the United States. Imagine being able to go from New York to Beijing in 2 hours. Could this ever be possible? According to this website, it could be, and for much cheaper than you might think.
According to the website (et3.com), it could be built for 1/10th the cost of a high speed rail system and 1/4th the cost of a highway.
et3.com is a website describing a new technology that would allow travel from New York to Beijing in 2 hours, or New York to Los Angeles in 45 minutes. It would be done with a capsule in a vaccuum tube traveling using magnetic levitation technology. Because the tube would be a vaccuum, there would be no air resistance, meaning capsules could go to potentially 4000 miles per hour. It would be safe for passengers even if it went that fast. This is because the acceleration force would be limited to 1G.
ET3 would provide massive benefits to our national and global economies like never before. If the US government or anyone could build a safe and reliable national ET3 system in the United States, we would set an example for other countries which may also build something like this. America could lead the way in transportation!
