When NileRed puts the YBCO on top of the row of bar magnets and it ping-pongs back and forth is awesome!

Timestamp: https://youtu.be/RS7gyZJg5nc?t=2496



The best thing about the NileRed superconductor video is it shows him initially failing to reproduce a YBCO superconductor after having already succeeded once before!

It goes to show how difficult manufacture, or in the case of the LK-99 news cycle “reproduction”, of these materials really is, and YBCO was a well documented area of superconductor manufacture.


And that he doesn't know what went wrong but comes up with a hypothesis and tests it and it works.
