China's Maglev Shatters Speed Record
Scientists at China's National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) have achieved a groundbreaking feat, accelerating a 1.1-ton experimental maglev vehicle to an astonishing 700 kilometers per hour in just two seconds on a 400-meter track. This record-setting test establishes a new world record for both the fastest acceleration and peak speed ever recorded for a superconducting maglev system, signaling a major milestone for future high-speed transportation.
