And if we could figure out how to make this stuff, it would be incredibly useful: It’s thought that metallic hydrogen would be a superconductor at room temperature, meaning that it would be perfectly conduct electricity.

如果我们能弄清楚如何制造这种东西，那将非常有用：们认为金属氢室温下是， 这意味着它可以完美电。

When you have a type 2 superconductor in a powerful magnetic field. you get this thing called the Meissner effect, which means that you can actually lock on to it and hold it in place and manipulate it.

当你一个强磁场中放一个 2 型时，你会得到一种叫做迈斯纳效应的东西，这意味着你实际上可以锁定它并将其固定适当的位置并操纵它。

They also haven’t checked if the material is conductive, or even if it’s actually solid — which are pretty important tests if you think you’ve made a solid metallic superconductor.

他们也没有检查材料是否电，或者即使它实际上是固——如果你认为你已经制造了固金属， 这些测试是非常重要的。
