Last October, Michel Devoret, John Clarke and John Martinis were awarded the Physics Nobel Prize for the first demonstration of macroscopic quantum phenomena in a superconducting circuit. Four decades after their seminal experiment, many academic labs and companies worldwide engineer superconducting circuits to explore all facets of quantum mechanics from its foundations to its applications in sensing or computing. This colloquium will present the which question the three laureates spectacularly solved 40 years ago as well as the history of this field of research past and present.
