Hello, lads. So sorry but the caption is highly misleading saying that Skytran and Hyperloop are one and the same which they are not for two reasons. A. Skytran is simply a monorail one-axis bogie system that allows a pod to travel along the monorail while the Hyperloop is based on the Kantrowitz limits principles of fluid/gas dynamics and B. The Skytran pod is exposed to atmospheric pressure while the Hyperloop works in a vaccuum w/ low pressure. Skytran and Hyperloop's mode of propulsion vary at a great length w/ air bearings or magnetic levitation tech which differs greatly w/ both propulsion sytems of SkyTran pods and Hyperloop pods. Pls note these differences and I suggest they are not regarded as the same. Cheers |
