A West Texas company says it's found a remarkably simple way to slash air cargo costs as much as 65% – by having planes tow autonomous, cargo-carrying gliders behind them, big enough to double, or potentially triple their payload capacity.
So the problem isn’t trains near houses, it’s train crossings near houses where horns are required. Fix the crossings to not require horns and you’re golden.
We have a commuter rail that used to sound its horns all the time, so they fixed the interactions and most if not all intersections no longer require horns.
More like a trailer, good luck to those pilots in turbulence have you ever tried driving a car with a trailer that catches a strong wind?
I think the real shipping breakthrough most people are looking for is low power neutral buoyancy without having to travel at hundreds of miles per hour.
Directly measuring gravity waves first happened pretty recently in 2016 using LIGO, there’s a possibility through future observations at different frequencies someone might identify a means of manipulation. When humans first discovered electricity & electromagnetic fields it took awhile before batteries and generators, etc. It’s not guaranteed but isn’t impossible either.
Like a train
They will do literally anything that’s not on rails to reinvent the train…
Tbf, the NIMBY fuckwads make it difficult to build new train routes
The government really needs to grow some balls and get better with this stuff.
Just draw some lines on a map. Offer everyone 1.3x the value of their house (or however much) and take it off them. For the greater good.
Often you don’t even need more property. Just utilize existing rail systems. So much unused or barely used rail in this country.

Because they’re required to.
Strange. Trains don’t even have horns in my country as far as I know. At least I have literally never heard one, and I take the train quite often.
They all do, here. The6 blow them when coming up to road crossings to give warning that you better not be on the tracks.
Whoops, reinvented trains again.

Speaking of air cargo. Why exatcly there are no moder zeppelins? They seem like a perfect way to transport cargo

Anti gravity drive wen?
probably never.
