A new futuristic mode of transportation could one day eliminate snowy commutes and other hazards extreme weather poses to traveling by safely zooming passengers through underground tubes to their destinations at unheard-of high speeds.
Hyperloops are high-speed capsules that travel through tunnels -- and scientists at some of the companies working on this emerging technology say they could be the perfect solution to traveling or commuting during unpleasant or even dangerous weather.
"We've all been waiting for a flight or having to struggle with driving through snow or rain," Chris Bobko, chief engineering officer for Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, told AccuWeather National Reporter Emmy Victor.
Many companies are now breaking into the world of hyperloops and exploring how they can begin being implemented in various parts of the country. Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, a company based in California, is one of the major players in this space working on the new mode of transportation.
