China is racing to redefine long-distance travel with a levitating bullet that aims to outrun the workhorse of global ...

China's push for high-speed transportation has taken a major leap forward with its experimental T-Flight maglev train. Designed to reach record-breaking speeds, this levitating train could ...

China is racing to build a new kind of train that does not just rival jetliners, it threatens to redefine what “high speed” ...

SHANGHAI, China -- The sleek white train zipped noiselessly out of a futuristic station in Shanghai, carrying Chinese and German leaders -- and hopes for a new era in railway technology. The world's ...

It’s possible to defy gravity using sound waves, magnets or electricity, but today’s methods can’t hoist heavy items high in ...

The magnetic levitation train is propelled forward by powerful electromagnets and hovers about the rail. The concept allows trains to hit speeds of hundreds of miles per hour because there’s no rail ...

A bullet train which 'floats' above the tracks using magnetic levitation could soon hit 373mph in China - making it faster than travelling by plane. A prototype body of the science fiction vehicle was ...

We 100% agree with the recent commentary by Angelette C. Aviles about the maglev dream (“Why Maryland’s maglev dream doesn’t track,” April 21). Instead of a dream, the proposed maglev train has been a ...

The science behind a bullet train's incredible speed has advanced to the point that they no longer need wheels to stay on the tracks. There are some magnetic trains that do use rubber wheels until ...

Transportation accounts for 16.2% of all global carbon pollution, according to Our World In Data. That is an extraordinary figure considering how much we rely on getting around as quickly and ...

SINCE the 1960s, transportation industry planners have sought an energy-efficient design for a train that can glide through air at speeds up to 500 kilometers per hour. This type of train, called a ...
