@@2bituser569 During the last total solar eclipse of the sun, I knew for 99.99% sure that I was being lied to about going blind when you stare into the eclipse, I was so sick of being lied to, I had to know for sure, for once, for myself. I expected to see multiple moons for some reason, or to go blind, I was ready to go blind, made peace with never seeing again. I had my frigging camera in hand, I was going to wait for the peak, can't really point your camera directly at the sun. You can only really barely glance at the sun without hurting your eyes so I kind of waited until it was about a 1/4th, I had my hand as a sunshield, but I didn't really need it anymore, it was the light of the yellow sun that causes the eye to squint. All I could think is "How in the f*ck is the sunlight lighting up the moon so bright when it's behind the moon?" It looked exactly like moon, except it was like someone's hand slipped when they were turning up the brightness on the moon and it went to +10,000% brightness, it flared with power, you could literally see waves of black light, it is so bright, but so soothing, nothing like the other sun. I could wrap my head around what I was seeing, what am I seeing?! Then I realize, a black sun... all I could think was "They've been hiding an entire sun from me, what else have they been hiding from me, how stupid am I?" The more you learn, the more you see how little you actually know. It gets really close, like could hit a tall building close. After staring at it for awhile, I looked around to see if anyone was around so I could say "Hey look, a black sun!", they probably would've thought I was crazy, but as I looked around, everything was this weird shade of red, purple, pink, black, it was ultraviolet, I thought "Oh sh*t, I really did f*ck up my eyes!... it's not so bad", but it was bad, it was real bad, I wouldn't be able to drive, all the lights the same color, it would be to hard. So I look back up at the suns and the blue sky is gone, it was like putting on those sunglasses that let you see underwater. You see the stars clear as day, these huge celestial bodies of... they reminded me of the ghosts that come down the stars in the 80's Poltergeist, you see everything, every is connected, kind of like (sorry for using so many movie references) that spinny planet thing in 80's the Dark Crystle, everything in the universe is connected, you can see them. then everything moves together, like a clicking clock, it is all...one big machine. Then it all starts to fade, this foul bright blue mist, shroud, vail hides everything, blue light, sun light, white light. The next total eclipse of the sun is really close, not terribly far away. Eastern USA, I'm not sure, I want to go, I'll record it this time. I want to get a hot air balloon and try to fly into it, that would be bad ass.

The Columbia to which you're referring is a floating city in an alternate 1900's reality, set within the 3rd game in the Bioshock series. With this world, a Quantum Physicist, R Lutece, through her understanding of quantum Mechanics, helped build Columbia's foundations in the sky above America. On a side note, it was her obsession with alternate universes that led her to capture and "float" the first atom, to which she endeavored to call quantum levitation.

He was so close to figuring it out. Add in high radio frequency waves at about 10,000,000 micro hrtz and additional spin to modify gravity. The cooper pairing in the electrons is the real substance of the subject and the way the magnetic lattice squeezes the cooper pairs along.
@SharpSharries
@SharpSharries 9 років тому
Quantum levitation is kind of a broad and silly term... basically it just means using enough force to overcome gravity.. or just simply, levitation. The actual phenomenon demonstrated here is called Flux Pinning. It is a variant of the Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect, typically referred to as the Meissner effect. Traditionally, the Meissner effect is attributed to the expulsion of all magnetic fields in a Type-1 superconductor when cooled below its critical temperature. It will levitate when placed above a magnet, but will not be "pinned" in place because the magnetic flux lines just simply go around it and can't penetrate it. Substituting a Type-2 superconductor cooled below its critical temperature for the Type-1 is where we get "flux pinning". This happens because the lines of magnetic flux (tubes) can penetrate the imperfections in the Type-2 (or "high temperature") superconductor's crystalline structure, thus holding it in place as demonstrated in this video. For now, this is basically a novelty.. though it has great potential for practical use. The impracticality is due to the fact that the superconductors have to maintain their critical temperatures and the fact that they are not yet "cheap" to manufacture. This could hypothetically be overcome by a "room temperature superconductor", but we are not quite there yet. We are currently too busy creating VajAnkles and such to be bothered by science. Also, your mother is a whore. (Quantum Levity)... get it? Oh well.

+IamGrimalkin It would be very nice if people (you) had a clue about WHO it was that built that building. it wasn't Arabs...it was a South Korean firm. Even you might know that Koreans aren't Muslims. All the Arabs have is money...lots of money from the oil that they're lucky enough to sit on. If it weren't for oil there'd be nothing.

I have a couple questions, what kind of ice is being used there? It looks like dry ice, but I thought you needed liquid nitrogen to cool a superconductor. Also, does anyone know what kind of superconductor that is?

Is the object's weight still applied to the area it is pinned over? Like, if the magnet weighed, I don't know, 1 pound and the object locked in place weighed 2, would that weight be applied to the magnet?

This is actually a great idea. If this idea works, transportation not only increases, but the durability of the track would permit a far longer use to what we have now. If you add some electronic propulsion through solar energy, you receive a clean way of transporting goods across cities and countries.

There is a magnetically levitating train in Japan, called a Maglev Train. Unsure if it uses quantum levitation. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_Maglev_Train
@joelgabriel3093
@joelgabriel3093 7 років тому
It does not use quantum locking. Quantum locking requires superconductors and thus very low temperatures (about -190C). Maybe one day we can have superconductors and room temperatures, but not today. Rather, it uses electrodynamic suspension. The repulsion caused by magnetic fields are the reason for levitation.

Read the video description. It has a link to a page explaining it. Webpages are best for explaining physics, because you can read it at your own pace, go back and forth and reread things, and the site can have diagrams and equations. UKposts videos are not good for explaining physics. They are best for showing cool things. Perhaps a single popup annotation linking to the site would have been better, so it's impossible to miss.

Also curious about the theoretical science behind this. Since this magnetic field may be radial, removing the forces above may affect some of the displacement. I'm also curious what would happen if the disc was vertically flipped - would it be non-conductive due to the liquid nitrogen, or would it be more attracted to the magnet?

I have a question does the superconducting mass behave like ordinary mass when quantum locked, does it add weight if placed over a piece of rail. Does it create centripetal forces upon rail passing a curve or does it behave as massless?

Whilst on the magnetic rail, is there a top speed the disc would need to reach for it to break from the magnetic trapping?
@goksanbetas
@goksanbetas 10 років тому
Of course, think about it, if we can remove it with our hand than it means that there is a max force that the circuit can out stand before releasing the disc, so if the disc reaches a certain speed, the centrifugal force (I hope i am not confusing names) will eventually reach this max force. I hope I expressed my thoughts properly :)

@matthewjo4653
@matthewjo4653 8 років тому
+Nicole Campos I believe it was rather one large magnet shaped into a ring, making a circular magnetic field. That was why the disk could spin around it (it was spinning inside the circular magnetic field, rather than a bunch of small magnetic fields had the cylinder been cut into pieces).
