Hyperloop

Today Elon Musk, founder of visionary companies SpaceX and Tesla Motors, unveiled his plans for a new high-speed commuter transportation service between Los Angeles and San Francisco. It's called the Hyperloop (click here for more info). For about $20 (one way) you'd get in a 28-person capsule, be propelled through a tube at 760 mph and reach the other end in about 35 minutes! Here's how I feel about taking such a trip...

I want to ride the Hyperloop

I want to ride today

To speed from San Francisco

To the beaches in L.A.

I’ll climb aboard a Hyper-pod

And hear the engines whine

Suspended like a hovercraft

While speeding down the line

Careening through a Hyper-tube

Propelled by solar power

I’ll reach my destination in

About a half an hour

Yes, I want to ride the Hyperloop

The future’s here today

Elon’s got the master plan

Let’s get this underway!
