Quantum clocks that tick on their own: physicists have found a way to achieve eternal oscillations without an external engine. If you observe only part of the system, it seems to lose energy, but in reality the rhythm is maintained by a hidden connection. This is a step toward ultra-precise devices that run without winding.

🎯 Frank Wilczek, who coined 'time crystal,' envisioned matter that moves even in its lowest-energy state — like a perpetual motion machine, but without breaking any laws.
