Why do cars still use wheels? Why not just use super conducted magnets so they can hover?

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 27 06:52:06 2011 No.3959705 because there's still too much damn money in fossil fuels

Either:
Room temperature superconductors embedded in Earth's crust, all around the world
or
Really cold present superconductors worth a trillion dollars embedded through the crust.

Neodymium is expensive because China has so far been mining 97% of the world's rare earth minerals. Neodymium is almost always found with Thorium. It's just not cheap enough. We need undersea mineral mining and asteroid mining to make neodymium cheaper than iron is today.

Why is there in cock displayed on that ipod?

Why can't it store as much as all human brains?

Why just one mission and not dozens, as it will probably be handled by the private sector?

Why not neural interface that eliminate the need for handheld devices?
