"But how-" "Quantum flux tubes" "Ah right. Gotchya."

Surprised this glitch hasn't been patched yet.

0:16 Wow. Seen this type of levitation before, but I never knew that it could stay locked into place, no matter which way you turn it.

They look like levitating pies. I feel inspired and hungry

KZfaq recommendation brought us together again.

Better late than never...recommended by youtube after 8 years....at that time i did not even had a smart phone..

When I read the word Quantum in the title: *Me : It's big brain timeeeee!!!!!!!!!*

2011: we’ve created quantum levitation! There will be flying cars in a few years for sure!!! 2019: gamer girl’s bath water sold out and gave men’s herpes

I wonder how mindfucked the guy who discovered this was lol

it blew my mind how this simple device can produce the sound of an entire orchestra!!! AMAZING

After 8 years, YT recommends me this. Anyone here with same occurrence?

Amazing. Congrats to who ever figured this out. Simply brilliant

Just imagine the possibilities for wheel bearings...

Elon Musk *heavy breathing*

graphic design 101: you dont put white text on a white background

theoretically, flying/ levitating cars would be possible if we had roads as magnets

"The disk is locked in space" "its possition can be adjusted" I believe you ment the disc being "locked in the magnetic field"

It would be so cool if transportation systems were like this....Well, except without the need for sub freezing temperatures.

Absolutely fascinating! I could play with this all day! I'd think up various obstacles to create a kind of rollercoaster track where I could almost get a perpetual motion. A never ending, constant action/reaction affect except for one problem... When the temperature of the superconductor goes up, quantum flux tubes disintegrate... Perhaps the other fascinating characteristic of superconductors is the way they will maintain ANY position in a given space. 15 degrees or 35, 40, 65 92, 07, etc., etc. ANY angle as if it were a spinning gyroscope. I know that the superconductor was discovered in 1911. But I remember learning of this first High Tc superconductor when it was first discovered in 1986. It hit all the news stations and at the time, all they demonstrated was a black, hockey puck-like object floating weightlessly above a magnet after it was taken from a dish of liquid nitrogen. That was it, LOL!! They didn't demonstrate anything more than that but I knew I was looking at something a lot more significant than some kind of "cold magnet being repelled by the like poll of another cold magnet", which is what one or two of my brothers dismissed the demo as. They and several other people I spoke to about the previous night's TV news announcing this new "Superconductor thing" all failed to see the importance. They likened it to the mag-rail trains in Japan. I tried to tell them that this was very different on so many levels but they really didn't see it. I couldn't really blame them because the first televised announcement was so typical of poor, 'slam-bam', hack-job journalism. It lacked any detail or explanation let alone the physics that drove it all. 34 years later and you can bet that the "known applications" of this superconductor and its various spin-offs barely scratch the surface of what's really going on. Unfortunately, there's the organizations that have applied it to weapons and they then lock it up. But if they'd only use some of the money and motivation to apply it to clean-energy operations and transportation, it would be a much more worthwhile endeavor. The problem is that once a military operation finds a new destructive use for any new discovery, they lock it up so that it can't be expanded into the uses for commercial and/or civilian applications. This endless circle of discovery-to-military-to-public blackout has and will continue to get more constricting. It's been holding us back from commercial earth and eco-friendly advances for decades and I think it's behind our failure to convert all transportation to an alternative form of locomotion. FWIW

Alright, now that KZfaq brought us together again bc science let's save them aliens!!!

Am i the only one thinking: TRAINS!!!!! TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINS!!!!! I effing love science

That was beyond cool! Thank you for taking the time to video this and share.

KZfaq recommendation brought me here and boy this made my day, good job guys...... This is remarkable!!!!

Something about the excitement of the researchers is so wholesome and pure

Excellent video, nice lab, and Mozart.. Perfect.

Now build a city in the sky!

There’s nothing “quantum” about this: it’s just that lenz’s law states that any change in magnetic flux through a conductive loop will create a current that will create a magnetic field that will cause a force oriented against it’s source. So the magnetic flux doesn’t change, because if it did it would create ideally infinite eddy currents in a superconductor. So the superconductor stays where it is

Its simple if you can't explain it just put a word quantam

Superconductor + Earth Mag Field = BTTF Hoverboard?

Shaped like a UFO... coincidence? I think not.

That's just too awesome! Thanks for teaching me something new and entertaining as well. Good Day to you Professor.

Ah yes, flying pancakes. Just what I needed, KZfaq

Levitation, amazing science, I hope it can be utilized for good use in near future !

2011: in the future we’ll have flying cars 2019: creeper? Aw man

Just saved me a trip. My calendar has just been freed up for Sept 20th. Thanks!

Coat your disc with mono atomic gold. Might not need to be cooled, just an electric current of a certain frequency.

Honey you remember that sapphire I got you for our 35th anniversary? Run it!

With this kind of technological advancement, we can bend space and time, and create portals to who knows where!

The last version would make the craziest rollercoaster ever 😂😂

And the outer loop is configure with mercury to keep the structure cool when the hertz are activated . Or do the levitation horizontal and vertical rings at the same time in a smaller form with the electrodes on the outer shell of the mercury

This is what the world should spend their money, time, and energy on, go look for the answer of high temperature superconductors, fuck planetary wars, it's all of us on this planet "agains" the universe! Let's focus on this friends

fricctionless, there's air fricction, theres just not fricction involved between the lane and the super conductor, this is cool but not energy efficient, as the superconductor needs to be super cooled, and that takes a lot of energy.

KZfaq in- 2011: not gonna let it happen 2012: this year too~ 2013: not yet 2014: doest want 2015: be patience! 2016: nope 2017: wait 2018: just waittt.. 2019: here we go

It's been 8 years...they should have a flying saucer by now. 2019: I'm a non-binary transgender polar bear and my pronouns are they/them/their.

I am not normally impressed by much. But this is damn impressive! I dare 288 people to do better.

You can build a railway with this Oh wait they already do that

the best visual explanation I've seen, thanks!

When a member from a flat earth group recommended a video which was really non-related to the hot debates of water curving around spinning rock, but still here I am watching patiently till the end.

Does anyone know where I can buy the sapphire crystal?

so thats how the aliens travel in flying saucers, except they use the earth as the magnet

If you like this check out the hoverboard that using this technology its made by one of the big car companies too and theres a skate park where you can use the special board thats super cool

Very very interesting. Could you tell me what is the geometry (NS poles of the different magnets)? Are all inner ones with N up and the outer ones with S up? Are all of them oriented NS radially in the same direction or opposite? Are they alternating? Thanks!

It isn't levitating, it's simply failing to fall.

2011- maybe found a way to create flying cars 2019 - earth is flat

If you freeze a superconductor in a magnetic field and then take the magnet away, does this turn the superconductor into a super strong and light weight magnet? How high could this levitate over magnets? Would it need a spin for stabilization?

Are the poles magnetic fields to big enough to do a similar thing? Also what makes the levitating object go up or down? Is it the magnet or the cold? Have you ever changed the variables in mid hover?

I'm going to make it at my home Sapphire crystal - ✔️ Super semiconductor - ✔️ Gold - 😒😒😒😒

lets build a somewhat large magnetic loop in space (removes need of LN2 and air friction), make a capsule with superconductive coating and we have a space slingshot without any power requirement right?

with such great music everything is beautiful.

When you put it upside down the plate does a plate support the weight of that verse what I meaning is if you were to weigh it on the scale does the plate support the weight of what it's spinning

That was so cool man...!!!! I loved it

Mono atomic Gold is a super conductor, without the dry ice. I wonder if it would behave the same way ?

With light being energy and particle, having to coil up fiber optics and firing a super high power laser in a infinite loop, would it exhibit a magnetic field and levitate using this type of material? The glass would of course need to have no defects, or it would also dissipate heat from the light absorption. Ruby would be the ideal material for both the laser and the levitation device. Any thoughts?

Very coo but that’s been around for awhile. We need to find away to do it without the cold. It was very well done though, nice job! Love the music!

I wanna know the math for force applied and force absorbed then I would like to know how to calculate/determine the information for the calculation depending on super conducting material, is there a level of superconductivity? If there is how is it determined and what is the evidence? Also is that superconducting level directly connected to the amount of force that is able to be applied with out breaking spacial entrapment aka motion or “the first question asked” or are all my thoughts wrong and should I have not asked these questions yet.

place that magnetic disc inside a vacume with the object levetating and it eliminates air friction.

Nice video. Curious as to what keeps the discs at fixed heights with the double levitation...?

If you increase/reduce the power on an electro magnet can you force the disc to rise/decend ? Also how can you maintain it in a supercooled condition?

We are living in the future, Tell you how I know I read it in the papers,15 years ago Now we're all driving rocket ships And talking with our minds Wearing turquoise jewelry, And standing in soup lines... Yeah we're standing in soup lines! -John Prine

Hollup, Frictionless? for how long, If you make a rail like that in a vacuum, would that be perpetual motion?

This was it cool experiment and thank you for using appropriate music.

Physics behind Quantum levitation 💯 stress level. Now you showing double levitation..!! I die.. 😵😵😵

Do you guys just put the word 'quantum' in front of everything?

Will the magnetic disks carry an non super conductor atop of it while it's levitatating?

Since there's no friction, if you put this in a vacuum and pushed it would it run at a constant velocity forever?

how much force can hold? What speed can handel without fly away? The rail can be made by electromagnets or have to be permanent magnets?

So thats how they fly those UFO´s in sort of way?

Correct me if Im wrong but it loses velocity as it travels along the ring because though the flux is constant along a magnetic ring theoretically, the realistic factor accounting into the superconductor to lose velocity is due to friction occurring for flux in actuality is 0.99 or so rather than ideal 1?

If were to add a small propeller to the saucer, how much motion would it take to dislodge the saucer from the magnetic rail?

I have some questions. 1) I want to recreate this, but need to know where to get/how to make the 500 micron thick sapphire disc 2) Why didn't you apply the coating to the permanent magnets in the first demonstration.

Use the word Quantum for everything. Makes you sound smart.. I'm going to take a Quantum dump now.

So does the superconductor need to be extremely cold or can it be extremely hot and work as well? If so lightsaber possibility.

I’m so glad this was on recommend videos!

What if the disruption was longer? Would that cause the connection to disconnect and fall off? And if so... what is the fields breaking point?

When you get done playing around I'd like to have my pancake back I haven't had breakfast yet

got to love this music :)

So let me get this straight. If the disc is not touching anything other than air than the only thing creating friction is the air resistance? So if you do this in a complete vacuum would it not create perpetual motion?

I would like to know if there is any way to create a quantum lock using electromagnets instead of cooling the magnets at low temperatures using liquid nitrogen Thank you.

i think we just figured out UFO technology..... :P

so ufo is the superconductor and earth is supermagnet

What if you did that with the same exact setup reversed on top of that one one magnetic ring going one way and the other the opposite and a a structure holding both of them in some type of opposite polarity or use 2 top 2 bottom opposite with a crystal nitrogen gold disc with graphene coating and set the hertz over 1000 hz at different variations within the structure like ticks of a clock so you can control direction. Something like this to activate the flux and thrust in a specific angle and speed

This is incredible -- I wonder if this will change travel in the future? No more tires... a hover craft (maybe something like Luke Skywalker's landspeeder?). -- Thanks for the upload!!

I wish we could somehow use this technique in the future to travel without the use of fossil fuels....😕🤔

8 years on Me: discovers this 🤯 Also me: Where are the flying cars though?

I wonder if you press or pull on it, does it feel the same as magnetic levitation?

How far could the affect be scales up, and what role, if any, dies gravity play?

the big bang theory should add this in new season

they need to get superconductors into the streets

20 years ago, I read this event in a scientific magazine. What I imagined in my mind was exactly this video. Faith didn’t give me any chance to comoletely satisfy my physics hunger. I would be the one to take place in these projects :’(

Let’s hope they don’t patch this bug boys. This one is pretty dope.
