NYU Hyperloop is back!

Our team of almost 100 students from a variety of disciplines are so excited to continue our project in-person at NYU. We're here to build a high speed train that uses magnetic levitation to zip you through NY at speeds over 600 MPH. We’re revolutionizing the future of transportation and mobility and we want you to be part of it!

We have recently launched an NYU Rising Violets crowdfunding campaign. Here is the link: https://risingviolets.nyu.edu/project/27892
Over the course of the next few weeks, we'll show you why you should donate. We really appreciate your support!

Stay tuned for updates.

Thank you to Mr. Stephen M. Schoenwiesner for the donation to our recently ended fundraiser on our Rising Violets page!
NYU Hyperloop is extending a shoutout to Ariane Schoenwiesner, a computer engineering sophomore on the levitation team, for her great work thus far!

With the fundraiser now completed, NYU Hyperloop would like to thank all of our donors, as we raised $1,457! This money will go directly towards building our pod for SpaceX's Hyperloop pod Competition!

Thank you to Carmen Larsen, CEO of AQUAS Inc. for her generous donation to NYU Hyperloop on our fundraising Rising Violets page!

Here is a glimpse into what SpaceX had to say about our pod and our plans for the future:

"'We're really focused on refitting our initial design. We got a lot of feedback from SpaceX and they definitely appreciated the simple approach we took to the pod,' Casey said. '[SpaceX] agreed with the fact that it's scalable. We weren't able to do any testing in the competition because we didn't have our main wheels set up. But for weekend two we're planning a full dynamic test in a full-sized tube. Hopefully our pod will be able go up to 150 mph around the test track.'"

Promoting Shanghai for first Hyperloop GROUND travel at speeds faster than a jetliner for the price of a bus ticket? What was once the stuff of science fiction has now become the fodder of space-age technology.
