About
In superconductors, the 'Meissner effect' expels a magnetic field when entering a superconductive state, usually at extremely low temperatures in labs. Following the LK-99 controversy, the race to develop a room-temperature superconductor is intensifying. If achieved, it could revolutionize power transfer, quantum computing, medical equipment, and green technology. Is it a pipe dream, or will the 'Meissner effect' be confirmed at room temperature this year?
