Mag-lev rails eliminate rolling resistance, and hundreds of kilometers of sealed tubes would be vacuum-evacuated to nearly eliminate air resistance. Thus, most of the energy you use to accelerate a capsule up to supersonic speeds (don\u2019t worry, there\u2019s not enough air in there to create a sonic boom) can be recovered at the other end with minimal losses.
