Groundbreaking speed: Chinese researchers accelerate a ton-class maglev vehicle to 700 km/h in 2 seconds and bring it to a safe stop. This breakthrough test redefines the limits of superconductor electromagnetic propulsion. | China Xinhua Sci-Tech

#China has set a new world record in superconducting electric maglev propulsion, accelerating a tonne-level test vehicle to 700 km/h in just two seconds. The breakthrough was achieved by a research team from the National University of Defense Technology on a 400-meter maglev test line. The result marks a major advance in ultra-high-speed electromagnetic propulsion and offers new technological possibilities for future maglev transportation and aerospace testing. #cgtnreels | CGTN

This is the Maglev train! A marvel of technology that connects Shanghai airport to the city center in just 8 minutes! 🇨🇳 It reaches speeds of up to 431 km/h (268 mph), making it the fastest train in the world! In 2032 Japan will start Maglev service from Tokyo to Nagoya and connect in under 40 mins! | Davidsbeenhere
