Jakob Misbach Staff Writer Everyone loves to take a luxury vacation from their hard work every once-in-a-while. But for some, the sad reality is that they simply can’t afford to take a plane or go on a cruise. Instead, their trips have to be more modest, which usually means they’ll be driving to their destination. And driving means wasted time out of the fun in the vacation. With life in the 21st century however, there’s always a way to solve these so-called problems. Hyperloop One is one of the hottest topics you may hear about endlessly in the summer of 2017, and most definitely for many more years to come. Why, you may ask? Three words… High-Speed Transportation. During the summer this year, Hyperloop will host a competition where thousands of engineers will strive to create an efficient, safe, and clean prototype of the first 700 MPH transportation train that could take tourists the same distance as planes, at the same speed, for five percent of the cost. In the CEO of Hyperloop, Rob Lloyd’s words, “We’re not saving you money; we’re saving you time.” Time does play a huge role in the high-speed train, but to be completely honest, it also saves you a lot of money. "We're not saving you money; we're saving you time."
