P.G. Kevrekidis, R. Carretero-González and D.J. Frantzeskakis showcase some recent experimental and theoretical work in the coldest temperatures in the universe involving vortices in the newest state of matter: the atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. The remarkable feature that these experiments and associated analysis illustrate is a new kind of ``classical mechanics'' for vortices, which revisits the integrability of the two-body system and opens up exciting extensions for N-body generalizations thereof.
