Introduction

Are Superconductors the Future? was the topic of my seventh grade science fair project at Hopewell Junior School. Hopewell Junior School is in West Chester, Ohio, USA, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio. The science fair was on March 17, 1998.

This documentary was created for my science fair project in March 1998, and was posted on the Internet in April, 1998. The purpose of Are Superconductors the Future? was to help people who do not know what superconductivity is to get a simple understanding of what it is, and how superconductors can change the future.
