...niobium, a metal that becomes a superconductor and shows no resistance to electric current when cooled to extremely low temperatures. The sphere will be placed inside an evacuated quartz shell, also coated with niobium, and suspended in an electrostatic field. Suspending it in this manner will allow it to spin in a near-perfect vacuum without touching anything; it will be free from all friction. The gyroscope container will be kept in a bath of liquid helium at a temperature of-452°F. to make the niobium coating superconducting. In this supercooled state it will shield the gyroscope from...
...against him on the Teen-Age Party ticket in the last election. Mary Quant, who designs those clothes, Vidal Sassoon, the man with the magic comb, and the Rolling Stones, whose music is most In right now, reign as a new breed of royalty.
