Basics

  • A Relitively Simple Way to Transport Cargo Fast, from Small to Long Distance
    • (Need to dig for info on how it scales)
  • Similar to Pipeline Transport , but more versitile
  • It is comprable to rail transport in it's versitility
  • It also can be very high speed
    • Need data on this
  • Relitively Simple, as it just uses Pressure Differentials (Can be high pressure on one side (fans+compressors), low pressure on the other side, or both), and Pipe
