    Superconductors Can Levitate Magnets When Cooled

    When certain materials are cooled below a critical temperature, they become superconductors, meaning they conduct electricity with zero resistance. A remarkable effect of this is the Meissner effect, where they expel magnetic fields, causing magnets to levitate stably above them without physical contact.
