Where to buy yttrium barium copper oxide?

He's trying to recreate Podkletnov's experiment, which allegedly created an anti gravity 'beam', by the sounds of it. Why anti-gravity should form a 'beam' when normal gravity doesn't is the most suspicious part. Oh, and that others have repeated the experiment and not got the same results, of course.

Why is it always spinning things that create anti-gravity, btw? When I was a kid, some nutter reckoned if you attached three gyros spinning all at 90degrees to each other you had anti gravity. That didn't work either.
 
Hey, as an anti supermarket person, I know wherewith I talk.
Tescos does sell clothes now, my dad buys his pants there. They also sell CD's and every kind of food you can think of. They are the largest supermarket chain in the UK, and have no doubt started selling clothes in part because of competition from wal-mart, (also known as Asda over here, since they bought it out.) They, in common with all other supermarket chains, are currently crowding out the small local shops by creating small local supermarkets, but their spiritual homes are the huge aircraft hangers you find in the edge of town. Most Tescos are large, by UK standards.

You can make YBaCUO7, or whatever, we made some in I think 3rd year at university. But you need the chemicals and some lab space. Why not just try and bribe a chemistry student?
 
You do realise that this isn't an anti-gravity device? All you are doing is observing the Meissner effect. All the Yttrium barium copper oxide is going to go into its superconducting state where its magnetic induction turns to 0. This means that any magnetic flux lines that originally went through the YBaCUO are forced out and the superconductor floats.
Sorry to disappoint you
