On May 12th, Hyperloop One completed the first full system test of its hyperloop technology in a vacuum. The company released a video showing its successful test. The hyperloop vehicle reached speeds of 70mph pulling in 2G's along the first-portion of the Nevada test track much longer than the open-air test last year which lasted about two seconds . The 28 feet long pod is built with structural aluminum and carbon fiber uses electromagnetic propulsion and mag-lev technology.
Check out the video with a congratulatory bottle.
In October, Hyperloop One began construction of its 500-meter-long "DevLoop" test track, which became operational last April. The company says it will continue to run tests at DevLoop in the coming months to "validate its next-generation components and software." The next phase of testing will showcase the Pod gliding along a longer track at faster speeds.
