On Sunday, SpaceX hosted its second Hyperloop Pod Competition, a student-focused event meant to produce new hyperloop pods and prospective hyperloop engineers. HYPERLOOP ONE POD REACHES 200 MPH IN NEW TESTHyperloop was introduced as a technology concept by Musk in 2013. The fastest pod at another SpaceX competition in January went about 60 miles per hour — also created by WARR Hyperloop. “It’s more a policy issue.”Realistically, a working hyperloop system is probably at least a decade away.
