China’s Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge spans 164.8 kilometers (102.4 miles), making it the longest bridge in the world. Completed in 2010 and operational since 2011, the bridge plays a vital role in the Beijing–Shanghai High-Speed Railway, supporting bullet trains traveling up to 300 km/h.

Built over a complex network of lakes, rivers, rice paddies, and urban sprawl, the bridge required over 10,000 workers and four years to complete. It’s designed to withstand typhoons, magnitude-8 earthquakes, and even direct hits from naval vessels—cementing its place not just as a record-breaker, but a masterpiece of civil engineering.

China has just shattered speed records with a full-scale maglev prototype reaching 621 mph (1,000 km/h) — all inside a vacuum tube built for near-zero resistance.

Using high-temperature superconductors, the train levitates without touching the track, moving silently and cleanly with no fossil fuels. The result? A Beijing–Shanghai trip in just 1.5 hours, beating planes on speed and emissions. More importantly, China just proved long-distance vacuum tube travel is viable—a huge leap toward commercial reality.

This isn’t just the world’s fastest train. It’s a blueprint for the future of travel.
How China pulled it off —

In the first human trials conducted by researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai, the new brain-spinal implant showed remarkable results.

Four male patients who had been paralyzed due to spinal cord injuries received the implant.

All of them were able to regain leg movement within just hours of undergoing surgery, and within 24 hours, they demonstrated significant voluntary control. Within two weeks, the patients could walk several meters with assistance.

The system works by detecting movement intentions in the brain, translating those signals, and delivering them to the spinal cord below the injury through tiny implanted electrodes.

This bypasses the damaged sections of the nervous system, reactivating the necessary motor functions.

The procedure is minimally invasive, using electrodes only 1 mm in diameter, and it not only restores motion but also appears to stimulate natural reconnection of the body's own nerve circuits.

These early results suggest that the implant can achieve near-immediate improvements in mobility, potentially transforming treatment for spinal cord injury patients worldwide.
