- IIT Madras with the support from the Ministry of Railways, has developed a 422-meter-long, India's first hyperloop test track.
- With this, 350 km can be covered in just 30 minutes.
- This is referred to as the 'fifth mode of transport'.
- Hyperloop is a high-speed transportation system for long-distance travel.
- It allows trains to travel at very high speed via special capsules in vacuum tubes.
- It involves an electromagnetically levitating pod within a vacuum tube thus eliminating friction.
- It will be allowing the capsules to reach high speeds of over 1,000 km/h.
- A Mach is around 761 miles per hour at sea level on a standard day.
