Скачать или смотреть Europe's longest Hyperloop tunnel has opened

In the Netherlands, the longest tunnel in Europe for testing Hyperloop technology has been opened. This system involves moving capsules with passengers or cargo inside low-pressure tubes, allowing for very high speeds due to reduced aerodynamic resistance. Besides high speed, its advantages include energy efficiency and reduced infrastructure costs. Estimates suggest that this mode of transport will consume ten times less electricity than cars and airplanes. The new loop was built as part of the Hyperloop Development Program, where the public sector collaborates with 25 private companies. Several startups and research institutes from Switzerland, the Netherlands, Poland, and Spain will use the loop. Financial support for the Center is provided by the Province of Groningen, the Dutch government, and the European Commission.
