Greetings dear community, today I come to tell you about another of the companies of the man of the moment Elon Musk, I really thought I knew everything about the richest man in the world but this detail escaped me, it is The boring company.

The boring company is a company that builds tunnels, the idea with these tunnels is to end the traffic, since our friend Elon Musk plans that tesla electric cars are the ones that circulate through these tunnels, this is really a very futuristic idea The idea is that there are tunnels upon tunnels.

The tunnel system has the name of loop for cities where you can travel at 240 kilometers per hour and super loop to travel between cities, the speed that is reached in super loop is expected to be 960 kilometers per hour. This is like an ultra fast underground highway, that's the idea.

The main challenge that the boring company has to solve is that of the cost of excavations, since on average digging a kilometer of tunnel costs between 60 and 200 million dollars depending on the terrain, the boring company affirms that it can build each kilometer for 6.5 million dollars, it is due to the standardization of tunnels to 12 feet or 3.7 meters is also due to the fact that all the company's equipment is designed to work with electrical energy. Many geologists claim that the tunnels are surrounded by uncertainty; it is known how it begins, but not how it ends.

To drill the tunnels The boring company created some drilling machines that can drill a kilometer in 5 days, a feat of engineering. As a curious fact, man has traveled 384 thousand kilometers from planet earth, however, he has only been able to drill the earth at a depth of 12.2 kilometers, but in those kilometers several tunnels can be built.

It is true that he is being pointed out as insane, but in the past he has been right, I think this is a project for the future, I think it will take decades and I think it is not something that was needed in America and Europe but in Asia in a few decades , so as crazy as the idea seems to me, I am not betting against Elon Musk.

Thank's for read
