One of the coolest, most ingenious things I’ve seen since Musk landed a rocket upright back onto a barge at sea.

Yeah it is pretty cool. The vacuum chamber is the trick, and from what I've seen the launch tube is kind of a sally-port system where the rear door closes as the projectile is still in the tube and then it breaks through the outer door film, or a series of baffles.

This might have changed by now though.

Very useful and clever use of, centuries old Centrifugal Force.

Wonder what makes the tremendous amount of Elect Power needed ?

Wonder what lubricates the bearings ?

Incorrect. The bearings are lubricated with the juice from minced baby-whales and the electricity is from hydroelectric motors fully powered by the tears from the baby whale's mothers.
