Qatar, Iran plan 190-kilometer tunnel under Persian Gulf

News summary

Elon Musk's proposed Transatlantic Tunnel aims to connect London and New York in just 54 minutes, utilizing vacuum tubes and magnetically levitating trains for speeds exceeding 3,000 mph. This ambitious project, which could potentially cost $19 trillion, has reignited interest in transatlantic travel alternatives, especially for those averse to flying. Musk claims his company, The Boring Company, could complete the tunnel for '1000X less money' than initial estimates. However, significant engineering challenges remain, particularly regarding the Atlantic's seabed. While similar concepts have been explored in literature since the late 19th century, technological advancements have brought the idea closer to feasibility. Despite its allure, the project’s viability is still under scrutiny, especially given the logistical and geological complexities involved.
