Witnessed a curious experiment were residents who came last night in the science Museum "Elemento". They showed how a small magnetic disk floating in the air as if he is affected by the laws of gravity. And it wasn't the focus, but the real levitation.

the Levitation of the magnet is made possible by cooling with liquid nitrogen under him superconductor.

Experiments with quantum levitation offer hope for the invention of technology that allows cars to fly. However, it is just a dream, because the materials-superconductors reveal their physical potential only at extremely low temperatures (-185 °C).

in Addition to quantum levitation Minsk showed in the Museum and other interesting experiments with liquid nitrogen.
