What causes levitation?

Levitation is accomplished by providing an upward force that counteracts the pull of gravity (in relation to gravity on earth), plus a smaller stabilizing force that pushes the object toward a home position whenever it is a small distance away from that home position.

Consequently, how do you levitate and fly?

Can I levitate? Normal things, even humans, can levitate if they are placed in a strong magnetic field. Although the majority of ordinary materials, such as wood or plastic, seem to be non-magnetic, they all exhibit very weak diamagnetism. Such materials can be levitated using magnetic fields of about 10 Tesla.

Is levitation scientifically possible?

While believed by some in certain religious and New Age communities to occur as a result of supernatural, psychic or "energetic" phenomena, there is no scientific evidence of levitation ever occurring, and alleged cases of levitation can usually be explained by natural causes such as trickery, illusion, and Subsequently, what is quantum locking? Quantum locking is a newly defined quantum effect which allows a Type II superconductor to levitate pinned in a strong magnetic field. Neodymium magnet configurations were used to create various magnetic field strengths in which the cooled superconductor was quantum locked.

Consequently, do flies levitate?

What makes something hover? Vents or currents of slow-moving, low-pressure air are ejected downward against the surface below the hovercraft. The trapped air currents can create an air cushion on any smooth surface, land or water! The cushion greatly reduces friction, allowing the vehicle to glide freely over the smooth surface below.
