Amazing and just defies our understanding of contemporary physics.

Hoverboards anyone?

 

I kept imagining myself standing on that coaster. So freaking cool!

 

magnets y u so cool???

 

 

Burn the witch at the stake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :d

 

Kind of made me think of UFO's....disc shaped objects, and how they float/hover.

 

At first I thought "Super-conductor... bid deal"... but damn that's pretty insane

 

As I was watching the video I said "woah" then started laughing because I thought it was a Neo-esque thing to say.

That picture was perfect!

 

^ Same

 

It's called the Meissner Efftect and it has been known for decades. The real breakthrough will come when they don't have to dunk it all in liquid nitrogen to get it to work like that.


Once someone figures out room temp superconducting it is

 

thats crazy

 

 

I thought the same thing. I think UFO's don't use gravity while near the surface of a planet, I think they're using the magnetic field produced by the planet itself. Think of the magnetic field the planet makes and you have yourself a huge *** battery.
