The moon has one-sixth the gravity of the earth so magnetic levitation can use 35 times less power to do the same work. NASA will leverage this to make thin sheets that can rolled out to make lunar ...

Stockholm-based American designer Simon Morris has combined science with a stroke of design wizardry to create a surreal, gravity-defying light bulb. Currently raising funds on Kickstarter, Morris has ...

Researchers may have unlocked the potential for gravity-free technology. A new study published in Applied Physics Letters highlights how researchers have made huge breakthroughs in magnetic levitation ...

Magnetic levitation is used to float everything from lightbulbs to trains, with varying levels of success, but usually it requires a power source. Now, scientists in Japan have developed a way to make ...

Researchers have developed a novel electromagnetic cell sorting technique for separating different cell types.

Magnetic levitation (MagLev) technologies are rapidly evolving, offering transformative methodologies in materials characterisation, precision engineering and process automation. By balancing ...

Magnetic levitation is a beautiful thing to watch. Seeing small objects wobble about while seemingly hovering in thin air never gets old. If you want something suitably distracting in this vein for ...

The development of electrodynamic suspension (EDS) systems has significantly advanced magnetic levitation transport, offering robust levitation and guidance through electromagnetic interactions. At ...

NASA is shipping a new magnetized platform to space to gather insight about the best 3-D cell culture techniques for scientists. Credit: Nano3D Biosciences, Inc. Biologists grow cells in vitro to shed ...

The Levitating Cybertruck model isn’t just a static replica; it’s a dynamic display piece that floats above a magnetic base. This 1:24 scale model demonstrates the growing trend of incorporating ...

It’s time for everyone’s favorite game: speculative engineering! An anonymous reader wrote to our tips line asking how the levitation system of the STORY clock is accomplished. We took a look and can ...

Dr. Christian Rudolf, an expert in parallel kinematics and magnetic drives, provides insights into PI's journey in developing magnetic levitation solutions for the semiconductor industry. “What makes ...
