Mystery surrounds the fate of Elon Musk’s proposed Hyperloop transportation technology from Los Angeles to San Francisco

Six years ago, Elon Musk wanted to develop and test his proposed Hyperloop transportation technology. His promise was to hurl passengers through tunnels in levitating, autonomous electric pods at more than 600 mph. its success would reduce the time of a trip from Los Angeles to California to 35 minutes. There were annual competitions involving engineers and students from all over the world to develop and test the proposed Hyperloop transportation technology of Elon Musk. Right now, the Hyperloop system has yet to see the light of day. As a result, the locals began to complain about road and pedestrian access. Hawthorne Councilmember Angie Reyes English asked city staff to request that SpaceX remove the tube. She said - “The city has been very giving and has been very supportive in efforts that SpaceX has had. But ultimately, we have other businesses and other things we need to consider, and to give the community their streets back.” Elon Musk’s Hyperloop prototype tube is gone. What does it mean for his tunneling dream?

There is no confirmation on whether SpaceX or Musk’s tunneling venture, Boring Co., are continuing to develop the Hyperloop technology. A media outlet first reported the Hawthorne tube’s removal this week. They called it “symbolic of a larger retreat” and said the Hyperloop project “has been indefinitely shelved.” However, SpaceX and Boring Co. did not respond to requests for comment. The last student competition was held in the summer of 2019. Since then, SpaceX has apparently abandoned operations at the nearly mile long test tube. Angie Reyes English said - “We just have to clean it up to ensure its safety and to ensure pedestrian right of way.” In view of Musk’s history of shelving tunnel projects, English is not sure whether the Hawthorne project is still running.
