From London to New York.

It takes more than eight hours to get from London to New York by plane. Back when Concot was a
three-hour flight, but if you were told that you could cross the Atlantic in less than an hour.It would
sound unbelievable! would n’t it? Entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and Hyper Technology are behind it.

How is it possible to cross the Atlantic so fast? That is, there is no air resistance, a special vehicle or path in a low friction environment that will run at a speed of about 3000 miles per hour.
and only 54 minutes to reach this path.
Elon Musk popularized this hyperloop concept in 2013. The system that is relatively environmentally friendly.

The longest tunnel.

The longest tunnel in the world, the Channel Tunnel between England and France, which is 31 and a half miles long and took six years to build. A 3000-mile tunnel under the Atlantic would take a few days to build, about 782 years if current construction technology is followed.

How the tunnel will be buried deep in the seabed, floated on stilts, or a floating tunnel tied to the seabed. Each design has its own challenges and doubts. If the long tunnel is under the Atlantic, earthquakes, strong ocean currents, marine biodiversity, shipping, How will everything be handled, maintenance?

Safe roads are not cleaned.Vacuum tubes are not damaged. Any leaks or cracks are not visible. What kind of technology is needed to ensure these?

And the question of maintenance can be raised. The possible cost of this project is said to be around 20 trillion dollars.

How will it be profitable?

How will it be profitable or even economically sustainable?
If a plane ticket costs a few hundred dollars ! it will not cost thousands of dollars to travel through this tunnel ! . If it is beyond the reach of ordinary passengers, if it is limited to the luxury of the rich and transport of special goods, then where is the rationale behind such a huge investment?
How many hundreds of years will the investment money ?

Julvern’s fictional title London to New York in 54 Minutes has a thrill but in reality the road to tunnel construction is mountain-level dams, financing, technology, security, maintenance environment, and commercial realities.

if the project is implemented, it will be an incredible feat in the history of human civilization…
but the current technology economic structure and political, given the good will, it is still in the dream stage.

People love to dream.

After that, people love to dream. Elon Musk, Khyper Loop, and all such innovative ideas show us that civilization is moving forward.

Maybe one day Many years from now, when technology is more advanced, construction
techniques are more efficient and the economic structure is more stable, maybe we will really be able to travel from London to New York in an hour.
