Elon Musk – Hyperloop vacuum tube

Elon Musk claims his tunnel construction company, The Boring Company, could build it for “1,000 times less” than the projected $19.8 trillion cost.

Experts proposed a project for a $20 trillion hyperloop called the “Transatlantic Tunnel” linking New York and London.

The tunnel, which would rely on advanced vacuum tube technology to enable trains to travel at speeds exceeding 3,000 mph, could theoretically make the trip between the two cities faster than most domestic flights. In fact, the project estimates that it would take under an hour.

Notably, a similar structure already connects France and the U.K. Built over six years, the Channel Tunnel links Folkestone in Kent, England to Coquelles in Pas-de-Calais, France.

However, skepticism remains high, especially considering the sheer scale and timeline of such a project.

For perspective, the Channel Tunnel stretches only 31 miles. Given its length, the Transatlantic Tunnel would take a staggering 782 years to complete.

While vacuum technology developments bring the dream closer to plausibility, it’s clear this futuristic underwater train is far from becoming reality.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
