The Coldest Atoms in Space Could Transform Quantum Physics
Show notes
Scientists aboard China's Tiangong space station have achieved a remarkable milestone in quantum physics, cooling rubidium atoms to an extraordinary 9.7 picokelvin.
By creating an ultra-cold quantum state in microgravity, the team gained unprecedented opportunities to observe atomic behavior and explore new precision experiments in orbit. The breakthrough could help shape the future of space-based quantum research.
