There’s no speed limit in a superfluid universe. Now we know why. – Livescience.com
In the cold, dense medium of a helium-3 superfluid, scientists recently made an unexpected discovery. A foreign object travelling through the medium could exceed a critical speed limit without breaking the fragile superfluid itself.
