The Boring Company: Tunnels to Tomorrow
The Boring Company: Tunnels to Tomorrow
Elon Musk’s Boring Company started as a joke—traffic sucks, so dig tunnels. But by 2025, it’s no punchline. The Las Vegas Loop, with Teslas zipping underground, cuts commutes from hours to minutes. Musk’s drills are rewriting urban transport.
The tech is deceptively simple: faster, cheaper tunnel-boring machines. Musk slashed costs by a factor of ten, aiming to honeycomb cities with transit networks. Hyperloop dreams may have faded, but these tunnels are real, scalable, and quietly revolutionary.
What’s next? Musk hints at cross-country tunnels or Mars bases. Skeptics scoff, but his track record—SpaceX, Tesla—suggests betting against him is unwise. He’s not just digging holes; he’s digging the future.
