      Nothing wrong with that! Take Denver for example. Trying living intown and the housing market is easily 500k for a 2 bedroom 1000sqft condo. Small bungalow houses (same sq footage, approx 1000sqft) in intown Denver neighborhoods are 675k to 1.5 m. It's almost impossible to live there. Even in smaller towns/suburban areas of metro Denver are thru the roof. If you could live in Wyoming and get a bigger house for 150k-200k and could commute to Denver in 12 mins, that works for some people.
      Not that want to live in Wyoming so maybe not the best example but you get my point...maybe?

  • @ElGrecoDaGeek
    @ElGrecoDaGeek Před rokem +69

    It's quite upsetting, given the quality of B1M's content that they gave HyperLoop this sort of press without dealving into the feasibility of the project. The concept is certainly physically possible, that is not in doubt, the problem is, is it feasible over any serious/useful distances without serious roadblocks what would explode its cost to build and maintain. Just consider the challenge of maintaining and creating the vacuum over such distances, let alone if the vacuum fails during use. At speed such a failure would mean insta-death for anyone inside one of these pods. As for the likely-hood of such failure, the longer the tube the greater the failure risk. For one, a pressurized tube in the vacuum of space is nothing compared to a vacuum under the pressure of the atmosphere.

    • @DanHarkless_Halloween_YTPs_etc
      @DanHarkless_Halloween_YTPs_etc Před rokem +1

      The video covered the possibility of vacuum failure, and I was satisfied with Virgin's explanation that it would just slow down the train, not result in "insta-death for anyone inside". But I do agree that the video ignored the energy costs of maintaining vacuum when talking about how little energy the loops would actually use for _propulsion._
      When it comes to the "insta-death" thing, I was a lot more worried about the possibility of someone crashing into a tube and then the train colliding with the break. However, it seems like the raised, seismically engineered supports should reduce that risk down to pretty much just intentional terrorism (or acts of war), and not normal accidents.

    • @ddwkc

The car (I think there was only one carriage, not a train) didn't operate in a hard vacuum, but instead acted as a piston. The station would increase or decrease the air pressure in the tunnel to push or pull the car.
      NYC didn't go for it. The tunnel was sealed up, rediscovered, and then demolished. The scene in Ghostbusters II where they broke into it was actually City Hall Station, I believe, which is funny since City Hall Station is where the old tunnel originally was.

      @@johndexter8487 I cant tell if this is sarcastic or not. I will answer as if its not. The Golden Gate is a straight that connects the pacific ocean with the bay of San Francisco. The bridge is named after the straight. That straight sees a huge percentage of he total US market in imported and exported goods. The Port of Oakland alone is the fifth busiest container port in the United States. Thus the bridge was built as tall as it is to accommodate the worlds largest ships. The concrete structure in the picture would clearly block the main channel and the large ships would no longer be able to pass.

He explained to me, that due to temperature changes the metal tubes extend and getting longer. To prevent anything from breaking, these U turns give the tubes the ability to bend a little and not cause demage at where they are ending. How does Hyperloop deal with that, cause to me looks like the exact same problem?

    Still, how is this supposed to work in practice? There has to be at least two "loops" at each destination since you can only travel at one direction for each loop. Then how many can actually fit inside one of the pods, and how many pods can you use at the same time without the risk of crashing into each other? How will they turn the pods around into the opposite direction without blocking the incoming tubes? How can you really made this efficient for the masses? Would it perhaps be more efficient with an actual loop? With no need to turn around since there won't be any end to the loop, it just goes around and around.

      Anyone can try, no problem. As you attack any engineering problem you must have as many of your requirements and challenges defined early on. In the case of public transportation, one of the top requirements is 'COST EFFECTIVENESS'
      The moon landings were never worried about making it cost effective. It is still not even remotely cost effective to go to the moon. Not even close.
      While this hyperloop is technically possible, the soul-crushing number of details will ensure it is vastly more expensive than anything we currently have. Who is going to pay through the nose for many decades while the system is burning cash? Keep in mind, it takes 10 years to design and validate a new airliner (that is mostly known art). An entirely new concept in transportation with a million unknown challenges will literally take many decades and then we will know if it is practical.
