Magnets allow you to lift much heavier objects, such as trains on magnetic pads. Magnetic fields can also be used to levitate objects that are not specifically attached to magnets, but this requires ...

Scientists are researching a way to move objects using only light which could open the door to interstellar travel. Although the research by a team at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) ...

Japanese start-up 'Hoshinchu' creates floating bonsai trees by harnessing the power of repelling magnets to make the miniature plants levitate. 'Hoshinchu', a Japanese start-up in Southern Japan, has ...

Magnetic levitation systems harness the unique properties of high-temperature superconductors and permanent magnets to achieve frictionless, contactless motion. The core principle underpinning these ...

Stanford Medicine researchers invent an electromagnetic device that can gently sort different types of cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: Cells at the bottom ...
