Whether it was the new room-temperature superconductors or the advanced superalloys, the sudden influx of revolutionary materials brought incredible convenience to the Noah's structural modifications. Naturally, it also triggered a massive wave of public invention.
Putting all vital engineering aside, the sheer volume of amateur gadgets and creations was enough to give the Federation's top brass a massive headache.
The room-temperature superconductors, in particular, captured the public's imagination. Magnetic levitation trains and cars had existed for a long time, but suddenly people were building magnetic levitation elevators, maglev backpacks, maglev skateboards... an endless stream of random, mostly useless toys flooded the community sectors.
Frankly, if people really wanted to float in the air using superconductivity, they would be better off just taking a walk up in the Noah's low-gravity zones.
