What if we could transmit electricity across an entire country without losing a single watt? What if maglev trains, quantum computers, and fusion reactors got a massive upgrade overnight?
In this episode of Physics or Bust, we dive into one of the most promising (and misunderstood) frontiers in modern physics: superconductors—materials that conduct electricity with zero resistance. But not just any superconductors… we’re talking room-temperature and ambient-pressure superconductors—the holy grail of energy and tech.
