A levitating magnet can spin both left and right at once—a quantum trick promising supersensitive sensors. This gets us closer to solving why our 'normal' world doesn't follow the rules of the microworld.

🎯 To preserve the quantum superposition of a real magnet, a vacuum a billion times lower than atmospheric pressure is required—harder than that in interstellar space.

🎬 Like Schrödinger's cat in the form of a magnet—a fantastical symbol of quantum duality, ready to step from thought into reality.
