TIP-0129: The Talos Hyperloop Network (THN) - High-Speed Transportation SystemAbstractThis proposal introduces The Talos Hyperloop Network (THN), a revolutionary high-speed transportation system designed to support the massive logistical requirements of Project K-Scale and the broader Talos ecosystem. Inspired by Elon Musk's Hyperloop concept and adapted for the unique needs of a planetary-scale AI supercomputer project, THN enables near-supersonic transportation of personnel, equipment, and resources between ground facilities, launch sites, and orbital infrastructure. This system is essential for the construction, maintenance, and operation of the Dyson swarm thermodynamic halo supercomputer. MotivationWhile previous TIPs have established digital infrastructure (TIP-0116 through TIP-0128), Project K-Scale requires unprecedented physical logistics capabilities:
Current transportation systems are inadequate for the scale and speed required by Project K-Scale. We need a transportation system that can:
Specification1. Core Network Architecture
2. Infrastructure Components
3. Pod Types and Specialization
4. Integration with Talos Ecosystem
5. Safety and Redundancy
RationaleThe need for high-speed transportation in mega-projects is well-established:
