Elon Musk’ Boring Company Announced Its Third Gen Machine is Working
During a launch event in December 2018, Elon Musk announced that its company is working on a third-generation Boring machine, named Prufrock.
The Boring Company has deployed its unique tunnel boring machine and it integrates a few great innovations, so the dream of ultra-high-speed tunnels for transporting vehicles underground is even closer.
Unlike other attempts of traditional tunnel boring machines (TBM), Prufrock is expected to be able to dig quicker and make a difference.
To share the amazing news, the Boring Company has shared an image of a boring machine saying “Prufrock is alive”, on Twitter.
The project will offer the company the opportunity to show off its concept on a limited extent while working on their tunnel-boring technology which hopefully will improve traffic in metropolitan areas.
The Boring Company Finishes 155mph Vegas Loop First Tunnel Last month I attended the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Vegas. I had a list of all the tech I wanted to see, talk to someone about, or try for myself, and I spent two days speed-walking between buildings and booths, scrambling to cram it all in: a 360-degree hologram, an exosuit, a flying taxi, haptic gloves—I didn’t want to miss any of it. By the end of each day, my legs and feet ached—and I hadn’t come close to seeing everything I wanted to. I’m not a step-counter, but other attendees claimed to be walking several thousand steps more than their daily averages. If Elon Musk’s new project pans out, next year’s CES will look totally different, for me and all the other (175,000+) attendees—and it will involve a lot less walking. Last week, Musk’s Boring Company finished excavating the first of two tunnels for a new transportation system that will run underneath the Las Vegas Convention Center ...
The coronavirus pandemic isn't shrinking every part of the job market. For example, SpaceX is looking to hire lots of folks to help ramp up production and testing of its ambitious Starship Mars-colonizing architecture over the coming months — and the company recently issued a public recruiting pitch. "The design goal for Starship is three flights per day on average [per ship], which equates to roughly 1,000 flights per year at greater than 100 tons per flight. This means every 10 ships would yield 1 megaton per year to orbit," Jessica Anderson, a lead manufacturing engineer at SpaceX, said last week during the launch webcast for the company's latest batch of Starlink internet satellites. "This is a significant effort, and we are looking for highly skilled engineers and welders to help us make this a reality," Anderson added. "If you're interested in joining the team, please take a look at SpaceX.com/careers." At the moment, that websit...
Tesla Inc. ’s new Model Y has what people have come to expect from Elon Musk’s cars: It’s lightning quick, handles nicely and has better electronic gadgetry than its competitors. Unlike past Tesla offerings, early versions are rolling off the assembly line looking more like you’d expect from a company with a handle on the finer points of car building, according to Sandy Munro. The manufacturing consultant who’s been tearing cars apart piece-by-piece for three decades offered his initial impressions before digging into the Model Y that his shop took delivery of this week. “I don’t have much negative to say,” Munro said in an interview. “It’s much better than the Model 3 when we got it. We found problems, but the average car buyer won’t even see these things.” Munro and his eponymous firm have been well known for years among Detroit’s automotive engineers for their in-depth analysis of hundreds of cars from virtually every manufacturer. He gained wider noto...
