Science = Amazing = Always. What do you get when you combined high powered magnets with superconductors that are cooled down using liquid nitrogen? Levitation!
Scientists however, have also developed a room-temperature superconductor, allowing you to easily build your own metamaterial superconductor and easily keep it controlled.
The new age of science! Redefining physics daily!
I can’t wait to see if the studies in anti-matter pay off (ie, at the underground labs in South Dakota). It won’t be long until we find ourselves in space (hopefully).
what a bouse
super conductors are awesom especially levitation
Woah the spinning looks almost computer animated.
WHAT IS THIS SORCERY.
but will it blend?
no high definition? WHY?
the super conductor makes the magnetic field repulse!!! that is why it
involves a spinning due to inability to find the north pole and south
pole!the levitation happens until the liquid nitrogen reaction is over…..
where can i find dat kind of superconductors ??
Sweet.

Superconductor on a Möbius strip …
Hello,
I am doing a similar train in Seville (University of Seville, Faculty of
Physics) but I have some doubts. Maybe you can solve that:
First, I bought some YBCO disk (about 22 mm diameter any 7-8 mm high) but,
when I freeze the YBCO it not levitate. I don’t know why. I think that
it’s overly thin.
I want buy another type of superconductor or other YBCO pills with other
form, but I don’t know where I can?
Can you help me?
Thanks you very much.
Ahh…so exciting!

i wish we learnt this stuff when i was in high school.
Mario Kart 8 in real life confirmed
table of possible achievements:
1st:super conductors that work on room temperature
2nd:levitating cars
3rd:Mario Kart 8 in real life xD
you should have put a little battery powered propeller on it.
Yeah Science bitch!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re using smoke to hide the wires. Nice try you silly magician
Why doesn’t the nitrogen fall out of the little tray?
I can’t wait until the streets are lined with super magnets and cars have
superconductors instead of tires.
*More superconductivity goodness*

Awesome vid – thanks
+Ellie Beckett this is what i ment by science – I WANNNA GO!
awesome! love it! but I hate how each time that thing came around he had to
help nudge it. I wanted to see if it would do a couple rounds on its own!
It is not levitating! >:(
It’s locked in the magnetic field. If it was levitating you couldn’t have
hung it upside down, which is possible with the Meissner effect.
Is it safe for him to handle liquid nitrogen with his bare hands?
is this what they call quantum levitating? or is that different.
So if you were to cool everything down and put it in space somewhere very
cold like behind the moon, it would keep going for a seriously long time !!
he talks like he bit on his tongue
Juggalos, take notes.
All I want for my bday is a levitating superconductor on a Mobius strip…
Science!
lithle lithp
This makes me so happy. Scientific explanation that can be applied to real
world conductors and is demonstrated with a mobius strip train track.
“You to keep it dry” he says. *Covers it with liquid nitrogen* he does.
So i’m guessing that this apparatus wouldn’t work in space because of
little/no gravity creating little/no electric field = no magnetic field to
repel or attract. But if you ran current through the superconductor
manually would it work then?
Does the magnetic field cause “friction” on the superconductor? As in, will
the superconductor still stop moving if it is placed in a way that there is
no air resistance?(exclude gravity)
When he says “the other side of the track”, he’s wrong: a Möbius
strip/track has only one side!
MONO ATOMIC GOLD??? Its a super conductor at room temp!!

The world’s largest mobius strip is a roller coaster called Grand National
at Blackpool. You board the train on the right track, and return on the
left track, and vice versa.
I need to buy that kind of super conducter and magnet. What to say in
market? Please…..
(Material of super conducter and magnet)
Some materials, when cooled to a critical temperature, electrical
resistance instantly drops to zero and magnetic fields are completely
ejected.
A feature that could completely revolutionize power distribution, power
storage, electric motors, computers, and more.
Is this real or is this one fake to
Maybe ….
This is the future of transportation people
This is actually an example flux pinning, which is the sort-of-inverse of
the Meissner effect. The magnet spins on a straight axis defined by its
poles, so it is being repulsed. If the cube were being levitated it would
roll about all over the superconductor like a glass bead on/1/4 in. above a
marble floor, instead of returning to the exact same position and
orientation when moved. Still, it’s a cool demo.
Does this only work with the same magnets you use when you set the lock?
If you set the lock with a weaker pair of magnets than the track will it be
in a different locked height above the track?
