Anywhere On Earth In Under an Hour
What a time to be alive.
Elon Musk and Space X’s theoretical BFR (Big F’ing Rocket) would be capable of taking people from any city to any other city on Earth in under one hour.
…for roughly the cost of what we pay for full fare economy in an aircraft.
Possible?
Remains to be seen, but it sure is great to know that things like this are being attempted to be engineered.

And, another take from Dave Pell:
Elon Musk has previewed a rocket SpaceX is calling BFR (for Big F#cking Rocket) “suitable for transporting humans safely to the surface of the moon in 2022, to a Martian colony by 2024–and from New York to Shanghai in less than 40 minutes.” FWIW, IDK whether BFR will be a BFD FTW or just a POS, but Elon Musk is moving closer and closer to a conclusion we’ve all come to: It’s time to GTFOH.
