I've been watching videos about this thing called the Hyperloop and it is essentially a capsule that floats on air and gets pushed through an enormous tube.  Don't let me lose you... This form of travel will have you hitting speeds of up to seven hundred MPH. 

The Hyperloop has been in the works for a while now and they already have some of these capsules built and they are just waiting patiently in the desert.

At first glance you might think that it is just a very fast and slick looking train but that is where it gets interesting.  This thing is literally floating on a cushion of air and once they fire this thing up inside of it's tube... it is going to go extremely fast.  Not only is it going to be a very handy form of travel but they explain in the video how efficient and good for the environment.

So here we sit in 2016... I'm thinking to myself.. When is this thing going to be ready?  Well believe it or not we will be seeing this in four to five years.
