Supercomputer, IBM roadrunner :
Supercomputer is a computer that performs at or near the currently
highest operational rate for computers. A supercomputer is typically
used for scientific and engineering applications. Currently, IBM Road runner is in the top of Supercomputers.
Supercooled fuel engine for Rockets :
Cryogenic technology is the technology used in latest rockets. They have supercooled fuel engines.
Cryogenic Engines are rocket motors designed for liquid fuels that have
to be held at very low "cryogenic" temperatures to be liquid - they
would otherwise be gas at normal temperatures. Typically Hydrogen and
Oxygen are used which need to be held below 20°K (-423°F) and 90°K
(-297°F) to remain liquid.
The components of the engine have to be cooled to similar low temperatures so that the fuel doesn't boil to a gas in the lines that feed the engine. The thrust comes from the rapid expansion from liquid to gas with the gas emerging from the motor at very high speed. The energy needed to heat the fuels comes from burning them, once they are gases.
Cryogenic technology is also used to preserve the dead body for a long time in a supercooled chamber and experiment with them whenever necessary.

As we move further in Supers....
To go further ahead, we need an unpolluted and peaceful world. Is it possible to achieve this with these existing Supers? Surely not! We need to have Super brains for this. Only then brains will start thinking of our environment and people around us.

But much more has yet to come in the future. Whenever there is a superior thinking about something, the seeds of SUPER will be sown, then and there. Results are seen later by the people, with their hard to believe kind of a change in lifestyle.
