    samples need to spin inside the magnet at nearly the speed of sound to get the best data. The spectrometer contains a series of chambers, with the outside chamber forming a vacuum jacket. The outer chamber is then filled with liquid nitrogen, which is at a temperature of minus 321 degrees Fahrenheit. Inside the chamber, a superconducting magnet sits in a broth of liquid helium, which is even colder, at minus 452 degrees Fahrenheit, or just a few degrees above the lowest known temperature in the
