Cold atom experiments belong in space. Advantages of microgravity include longer free-fall observation times and the ability to confine and manipulate delicate atomic samples with remarkably small forces, which has led to extraordinarily cold temperatures. Mixtures of different atomic species overlap perfectly, as they do not feel different tugs from gravity, and there are no density gradients across samples.
