    OH HELLO THERE! Good news! There will be another video coming out either end of this week or next week. Along with the trailer for season 1 of "Could You Survive The Movies?" Also, "Could You Survive The Movies?" will be free to watch. First episode comes out October 21st. If you were wondering where I have been it is because I've been working on that show for the past 7 months. Can't wait for you to see it! HUGS

      Not exactly what this video is about, but there are actually labs that are using custom made magnets with customized poles to have special uses. Like for instance, there are some magnets designed to act as a door knob allowing it to twist but when "locked" the poles would align and hold it firm. Pretty cool stuff if you ask me. There were other uses but I only remember the doorknob one

    Here’s the thing about quantum levitation and quantum effects, once a material like iron gets incredibly hot, it can lose its Magnetic direction and almost become like a molten soup.
    However, if you have incredibly strong magnets forcing the issue while it’s in flux, they would essentially align its magnetic field lines. Forcibly

    Some questions that it would have been nice to see answered in the video:
    -How much weight could this actually support?
    -How strong is the magnetic field? Do you have to tug hard to move the puck away from the track? Would there be resistance or repulsion if you tried to push the puck against the track?
    -What happens when the puck warms up? Does it gradually lose the ability to levitate? Or does it suddenly turn off like a switch once it gets above a certain point?

      Space Spiff20 Space being cold is a myth. Temperature is a property of matter, no matter no temperature, thus space is just... space. There is nothing to transfer heat to up there, which is why in certain cases overheating is a larger issue than any cold and why the ISS has massive radiators (radiation is the only means of expelling heat).
