Travel Around the World in Just 6 Hours!!!

Is this the time of a completely new mode of transportation? May be. Evacuated Tube Transport Technologies(ET3) may take over all the conventional transport mechanisms in the near future. Scientists claim that this method of transportation is safe, green and affordable to all. This mode of transport is literally space travel on earth and the most amazing part of it is that we can travel around the world in just 6 hours!! Amazing! 

Here are a few points to be noted

• Capsules carrying 6 passengers are accelerated along an evacuated tube.
• This technology can provide 50 times more transportation per kWh than electric trains or cars.
• Speed: Interstate - 600km/hr, International - 6500km/hr.
• The weight of the capsule is just 183kg.
• ET3 is open consortium of licenses and you can contribute to its development too.

The video below describes the technique briefly.

For those who're interested in this, here is a video which explains the concept in detail.
