Vacuum tube transportation system
According to our team, a vacuum tube train can be a significant breakthrough in the transport systems of the future. The main advantages include its cost-effectiveness, security and unprecedented speed of travel. These transport systems can be used for high-speed travel on the middle and long distance, with the aid of which may be provided communication between the suburbs and the big cities.

Technology and basic features
The system will use the pipe with a very low pressure, it will allow trains to move without air resistance and achieve high speeds without significant aerodynamic losses. As a "wheel" can be used magnetic levitation, which also will serve as a source of train movement. This solution will eliminate the friction that occurs when the movement of a train on wheels.
Diameter of the tunnel: 4m
Cruising speed: 800 km/h

Energy efficiency
Due to the lack of resistance to movement, the train almost completely converts electrical energy into kinetic energy of motion. When braking energy can be converted back, and stock in the batteries, which will be located at the stations. The aerial parts of the pipe can be covered with solar batteries, thus the system is almost not need external sources of energy.
