Your next cable?
 
Wondering if this will have home audio applications.

THAT, if indeed works at room temperature, will revolutionize many things and yes, it would put an end to all other cables. :yes: I’m a bit skeptical but it’s possible.

I know a bit about superconductors from a previous career.

Radiology. Magnetic Resonance Imaging and cryogenically cooled superconductors. :yes: As well as the first “freestanding” radiation oncology facility with a tissue sparing 3D collimator in Philadelphia back in the day.

Can you freeze my head, my son wants to save it when that day comes. :lmao:

Do you prefer a specialized cryogenic clinic or DIY approach for that? :lmao: https://www.phchd.com/us/biomedical/...SAAEgIX7_D_BwE

A bit off topic but SpaceX and Celestis did launch 152 human remains (cremates) into orbit for a “space burial”. The cost varies on whether one prefers zero G and return to earth, to be in orbit indefinitely or deep space.... :scratch2:

Cool 😎

Apparently someone had seen and remembered this 1960s movie:
