Techno- Report #09 - The Boring Company
In the technology report we will deal with the most delicate issue in the world of large metropolises, when we live in overpopulated cities we find traffic jams, and this has caused us to spend much of our lives in endless queues. Through the times different projects have arisen in order to solve this problem, from the invention of traffic lights, special schedules for certain numbers of plates and the most successful solution but still did not disappear the traffic, the magnificent invention of subway trains. So it was that Elon Musk, the founder of the electric car company, after having written on the social networks that he was tired of traffic, because it turns out that in a short time he decided to make a project aimed at solving forever the great problem generated by traffic. Let's see what it's all about.
A dozen media and thousands of people came to know the initiative of the company called The Boring Company, which will be responsible for promoting the materialization of what will be a system of underground tunnels, where they can drive autonomous electric cars at high speed.
The prototype presented is called hyperloop, was excavated at the headquarters of the company SpaceX and has a distance of 1.77 km, perhaps the most striking for the moment is the rapid way in which it intends to make the tunnels, which has a tunnel boring machine system of the latest generation, which has cost about 8.77 million dollars, the same could build the tunnels faster, as it has a system can dig the hole, clear earth and place the concrete walls ensuring them all at the same time.
The speed that is expected to arrive inside the hyperloop and propel the electric cars at more than 240 kilometers per hour, depending on the destination.
The eceptics have not paid much attention to the project, and within the public who could get into one of the cars, compared the trip with a roller coaster, others with the transport from the airport. The tunnel is completely white and narrow.
Not everything was perfect, the cars did not arrive at the expected speed and at first they had problems with the tunnel boring machine.
Personally I think that the invention is not bad at all, and according to its projection has many opportunities to be a great project that could revolutionize the world of transport in this century, and although many mock me seems to be the most serious initiative to end the traffic, many cities were delighted with the project, not only for the usefulness for cars, but for other problems such as electricity, sewage.
So let's hope that these colleagues manage to materialize this noble initiative, although Musk himself commented that the first stretch will not be ready by the scheduled date.
Now it would be the third company of Musk, Tesla, SpaceX and Boring Company, who with great enthusiasm managed to create a festive atmosphere to capture the imagination of the guests.
One of the things that caught the most attention was the entrance to the tunnels, where a medieval castle-style watchtower is set up, with its respective brick façade, the same Musk said in interviews, that he wanted to hire personnel to wear armor, remembering the top of the tower as John Cleese in Monty Python and The Knights of the Square Table and shouting insults at people with French accents.
