The largest magnet on Earth is, in fact, the Earth. Our planet acts like one big bar magnet, with a magnetic north and south pole. However, it is not the strongest one on the planet. The most powerful, non-destructive magnet resides in New Mexico and was made by humans. In 2012, researchers at the Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico built one that could generate a record-setting magnetic field of 100 Tesla, a unit used to measure magnetic field strength.
To put that in perspective, the huge lifting magnets that swing cars around like they are mere toys are only around 2 tesla. The magnet created by the researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico clocks in at 100 Teslaâa magnetic force that is 2 million times stronger than Earthâs magnetic field. The magnetic energy is so intense that it even emits a shrieking sound when turned on. Because it is so powerful though, it can only be turned on for a few seconds, then it must be turned off.
The magnet isnât necessarily the strongest that has ever been created either. However, it is the first that does not involve destruction or explosions in the process. With magnetic fields that strong, even the magnet needs help managing the strength of them. Before, powerful man-made magnetic fields were generated by using some form of explosives to compress the field inside the magnet as it pulsed. Using this method, researchers could reach measurements as high as 1,000 Tesla, but only for a few microseconds. With the 100 Tesla magnet, researchers can use it again and again.
So whatâs the point of creating a super powerful magnet besides the fact that it sounds really cool? The man-made magnet is actually a valuable resource in furthering research on superconductors, quantum behaviors and a number of other magnetic phenomenon.

Remarks by the President on Teaching American History and Civic Education
East Literature Magnet School
Nashville, Tennessee
1:05 P.M. CDT
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all for coming. Thanks for that warmwelcome -- really warm welcome. (Laughter.) Across America today,Americans are reciting 31 world -- words that help define our country.In once sentence we affirm our form of government, our belief in humandignity, our unity as a people, and our reliance on Providence.
And this pledge takes on a special meaning in a time of war. Ourenemies hate these words. That's what you've got to understand. Theyhate the words, and they want to erase them. We're determined to standfor these words, and live them out in our lives. Our allegiance hasnever been stronger. We've never been more determined. And we mustwork to teach our children to love our nation as much as we do.
I want to thank you all for coming today. I particularly want tothank our Secretary of Education for traveling with me -- Rod Paige. Ipicked Rod out of a lot of really good candidates because I wantedsomebody to be in Washington who had actually been on the front linesof educating every child. We didn't need any more theory inWashington. We needed people that actually done. And when we talkabout raising the bar and challenging the soft bigotry of lowexpectations, so that every child can learn, when we talk about havingan accountability system to make sure no child is left behind, ourSecretary of Education has actually done it. He ran one of the largestschool districts in my state, our state, and he did so with class anddignity. And the children of Houston, Texas are better off for it.
Mr. Secretary, thank you for coming. I'm also proud to be sharingthe stage with another superintendent -- Pedro Garcia. Mucho gusto,Pedro. (Applause.)
Pedro is a good leader. It's very interesting -- we were talkingbefore we came out here and Pedro was a part of what they callOperation Pedro Pan -- Operation Peter Pan. So, by the way, was amember of my Cabinet, Mel Martinez. When both Pedro and Mel were youngmen, their parents wanted their children to grow up in freedom. Sothey put them on an airplane to a foreign land. They had great faithin America, faith -- so much faith in the ideals of our country thatthey were willing to trust their teenage children with a stranger in aforeign country. And they came and were loved. I don't know, Pedro,whether your mom and dad came, but Mel's mother and daddy came.
And I want you all to remember these stories about Pedro, who's nowyour Superintendent of School, or Mel, who's in my Cabinet, that thiscountry offered so much hope and so much promise, because we believe sostrongly in freedom that people, such as the Garcias and the Martinezeswere willing to give up their children so they could grow up in a freesociety.
I love the story of Pedro Pan. I love the job you're doing, and Iwish you all the best. And I'm also so appreciative for Kaye, KayeSchneider, the principal of East Literature Magnet School, for openingup this school. She said it's been an amazing experience. I bet ithas, with all these -- (laughter) -- all these advance people and allthe entourage here. But thanks for opening up this great school. I'mhere because this is a center of excellence, a school that refuses toleave any child behind, and it starts with having a good solid, soundprincipal. So, Kaye, thank you very much. (Applause.)
I want to thank all the teachers who are here. Thank you fortaking on a noble profession. (Applause.) Old Sam Houston, he used tolive in Tennessee. And at one time he had been the governor of Texasand a senator from Texas. And he was a famous Tennessee guy, and hewas President of the Republic of Texas. And they said, of all the jobsyou've ever had, Sam, what was the most important one? He said,without hesitation, teacher, because he had been a teacher.(Applause.)

I want to thank the mothers and dads who are here. Thank you forcoming. You, too, are teachers. The best education starts at home, byloving your children with all your heart and all your soul. I want tothank the students who are here. Thanks for letting me come by andvisit with you.
I appreciate very much elected officials who have come today:Senator Fred Thompson, Senator Bill Frist, Congressman Zach Wamp,Congressman Van Hilleary, Congressman Bob Clement, Congressman BartGordon, Congressman Ed Bryant. I want to thank your Mayor, BillPurcell, for coming as well, the Mayor of Nashville. Thank my friend,Lamar Alexander, for being here.
But most of all, I want to thank you all for giving me a chance tocome and share some thoughts. It is very important for our youngstersto understand history, the history of our country, the ideals that makeour country strong. This morning at the Rose Garden I kicked off anational initiative, and I'm going to describe some of what we're goingto do to make sure that we teach more history to our children.
Especially important in a time of war that our children understandthe context of why we fight. You see, ours is a history of freedom.One of the most precious ideas we have is freedom for everybody. Welove our freedoms. We love the idea of being a free society. Andthroughout our history, people have fought for freedom. Whether it'sbeen in the Revolutionary War, or the heroic struggle to end slavery,or civil rights wars in the United States Congress, or whether it'sWorld War II where we fought to free people from tyranny, the historyof this nation has been a history of freedom and justice.
Our children are growing up in a difficult time for America,because they see on their TV screens the fact that America is now abattlefield. When we were kids, a lot of us were kids, growing up,oceans separated us from danger. We were confident in our ability toresist evil because evil could never make it to our shore, unless itwas created internally. But now we've entered a new period where we'revulnerable. It's tough for our children to comprehend that, I know.
But you've got to understand why we're vulnerable, and that isbecause there are people in the world that hate the fact that we lovefreedom. People cannot stand the fact that your great nation not onlyallows, but encourages people to worship an almighty God in any waythey want to. We welcome that in America. (Applause.)
We speak our mind freely. All you've got to do is remember it's anelection year. (Laughter.) We believe in a free press. And we're notgoing to change. We love our freedoms. Our history has taught usthat. And today, we love them just as strongly as others in the pasthave.
The other thing the children are learning is the notion of peopleserving something greater than themselves in life. You know, I thinkone of the most defining moments of the recent American history wasFlight 93. Flight 93 is an amazing lesson. Laura and I had the honorof going to the site there in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, the other dayto hug and cry and visit with and smile with if they wanted to smile,with the family members of those brave souls who were on thatairplane.
But it's a lesson of people loving freedom so much and loving theircountry so much, that they're willing to drive a plane into the groundto save other people's lives. What a powerful message, that part ofbeing an American is to serve something greater than yourself. Part ofbeing a citizen in this great land is to not only take from the land,but to give.
So today, when you realize there are military people looking incaves in Afghanistan, or moving around the world to try to fighttyranny and terrorism, they do so to serve something greater thanthemselves -- because of a strong ideal, a strong sense of purpose, astrong sense of country.
You've got to understand there are some in this world that simplydo not adhere to the ideals we believe in. In Iraq, they don't puttheir hand over their heart and say, 'Liberty and justice for all.'They don't believe in liberty. The dictator who runs Iraq doesn'tbelieve in justice. He only believes in liberty and justice for thosewho he decides get liberty and justice.
Magnet Worldwide
There's a lot of talk about Iraq on our TV screens, and thereshould be, because we're trying to figure out how best to make theworld a peaceful place. There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I knowit's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, fool me once, shameon -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again. You've gotto understand the nature of the regime we're dealing with. This is aman who has delayed, denied, deceived the world. For the sake ofliberty and justice for all, the United Nations Security Council mustact, must act in way to hold this regime to account, must not befooled, must be relevant to keep the peace.
Part of the American history teaches us that we must lead toward amore peaceful world. Part of the history of the world shows that asthreats develop, we must deal with them before they become too acute,unmanageable. Part of our history is, is that we're a peacefulpeople. We love and long for peace, that we want peace for generationsto come. But sometimes we must act in order to achieve the peace.
And all our history says we believe in liberty and justice for all,that when we see oppression, we cry; that when we found out that younggirls in Afghanistan could not go to school because they were in theclutches of one of the most barbaric regimes in the history of mankind,we acted not only to uphold doctrine and to fight the war againstterror, we acted to liberate people. Our history shows that we're nota nation which conquers; we're a nation which liberates.
History is important for our children to understand, to give them abetter sense of how to understand what we do and a sense of what itmeans to be an American; a sense of importance of serving somethinggreater than yourself in life.
The first initiative that we're going to put out is called We thePeople, which will encourage American history and civic education allaround the country. There will be a grant program to encourage thedevelopment of good curricula and a lecture series, and essays by highschool students on liberty and justice and freedom.
We've got a great store of documents here in America, and so we'regoing to put out a program called Our Documents, the National Archivistis going to work with us to make sure all of the archives of Americaare now on-line, so schools can easily tap in to find out how ourhistory developed through the archives of the country. It ought to bea really interesting way for our students to learn more about America.
We're going to have a White House forum there in Washington, D.C.-- obviously; that's where the White House is -- in January or Februaryof next year, to call in experts as to how better teach our history,and at the same time, teach the ideals that make us a great nation.We're going to do our part at the federal level; it's very importantthat you all do your part here in Nashville, Tennessee, and insist upongood civics lessons, the true lessons of history, to make sure ourchildren understand the ideals that make us great.
And one of the things our youngsters and those of us not quite soyoung can do -- and this is important -- is to celebrate patriotism byloving your neighbor like you'd like to be loved yourself. You see,it's important to realize that one person can't do everything to changeAmerica, but one person can do something. Every child who hurts, whoreceives your love, is part of changing America for the better, is partof fighting evil with acts of kindness and decency.
I met Harry Ingle, Jr., at Air Force One. He's an East LiteratureMagnet student. He's a junior. He was out there because he isinvolved with mentoring children. He's a soldier in the army ofcompassion here in Nashville, Tennessee. He's a part of the truestrength of America, which is neighbor loving neighbor. Those of uswho are on our feet, helping those who aren't on their feet. He's apart of the light that can help shine into corners of darkness, wherethere may be despair and addiction and loneliness.
No, part of patriotism is not just to put a hand over our heart,but part of being a patriot is to serve the ideals of this country byserving something greater than yourself.
I want the students here to understand that this great nation ofours longs for peace, but we also want to practice compassion. And youcan be a part of the compassionate future by helping somebody in need.
It is an honor to be here at this fine school, in this fine city,in this great state, to celebrate with millions of students all acrossthe country the Pledge of Allegiance, the Pledge across America. It ismy honor to be here to remind people the great ideals of the greatestcountry on the face of the Earth.
May God bless you all and may God bless America.
