A quantum computer managed to 'photograph' elusive electron pairs—the very ones that make a material superconducting. Previously, their existence was only guessed from indirect signs. Now scientists can design superconductors on screen, bringing closer the era of lossless energy.

🎯 Quantum computers were originally conceived as simulators of quantum systems. Back in the 1980s, [scientist:Richard Feynman]Richard Feynman[/scientist] argued that we need quantum devices for such tasks.

🎬 In the sci-fi movie Avatar, they mine unobtanium—a room-temperature superconductor that enables incredible technologies.
