In 1937, scientists Pyotr Kapitsa and John Allen first observed and described the strange super-fluid state of helium at near-absolute zero temperatures. They found that when they cooled the liquid helium down below the lambda point (2.17 Kelvin) the boiling liquid suddenly fell still and took on amazing new properties. The individual helium atoms blurred into one another and became a single super-atom known as a Bose-Einstein Condensate.
This was a demonstration of Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle, which states that the more precisely the momentum of a particle is determined, the less precisely its position can be known. Particles below the lambda point have almost no movement so their momentums are almost entirely “known”. Therefore their positions become so inexact that they begin to overlap each other. In this situation atoms stop acting like discrete things and become nebulous smears of quantum probabilities.
If you physically scoop up a portion of the super-atom, the elevated part acquires more gravitational potential energy than the rest. Since this is not a sustainable equilibrium for the super-fluid, it will flow up and out of its container to pull itself all back into one place. It will also flow with zero friction since it has no energy to lose.
