Top to Bottom:  Dr. Obot  cools the semiconductor material with liquid nitrogen, transforming it into a superconductor, creating a strong magnetic field that repels the "floating" metal. Top to Bottom: Dr. Obot's animated teaching style was enjoyed by all.   From explanations of the superconductivity demonstration to theoretical discussions, he kept the teachers on their toes.
