What does a room temperature super conductor allow us to do?
It would allow us to transfer electricity with virtually no loss of energy.
What does it mean? More efficiency? No heat generated?
And faster computers
Yes, because less heat. So we can crank it higher with no drawbacks. (Simplified reasoning I dont know a lot about circuit boards)
