Buckle up: China unveils maglev marvel, redefining the future of high-speed rail

China has set a new world record with its fastest maglev train. The one-tonne prototype, developed by researchers at China’s National University of Defense Technology, accelerated to 700 km/h in just two seconds. A magnetic levitation train floats above the track using superconducting magnets, allowing it to lift and move forward without touching the rails. Video footage of the test shows the train flashing past almost too fast to be seen by the naked eye. The acceleration technology used in the
