Antigravity Method 9 of 15, Magnetic Gyroscopic, Group IIC
Filmed 1991-1996, 9 of 15 methods of levitating an object known to the author John Iwaszko, edited from the video Antigravity the reality made in 1996. The antigravity method shown in this edit, at the time was classified as part of Method 5-Static Magnetic & Gyroscopical Magnetic Levitation which has now been reclassified by the author as Method 9 - Magnetic gyroscopic, Group IIC. This method shown is very spectacular and in the past prior 1983 was considered an impossibility to achieve, as it seemed to violate Earnshaw's theorem that states that a collection of point charges cannot be maintained in a stable stationary equilibrium configuration solely by the electrostatic interaction of the charges. This was first proven by Samuel Earnshaw in 1842. It is usually referenced to magnetic fields, but originally applied to electrostatic fields. Static levitation means stable suspension of an object against gravity. There are, however, a few ways to levitate by getting round the assumptions of the theorem; the method shown is one example of how we can bend the laws of nature. The spinning top can levitate delicately above a base with a careful arrangement of magnets so long as its rotation speed and height remains within certain limits. This solution is particularly clever because it only uses permanent magnets. Ceramic materials are used to prevent induced currents which would dissipate the rotational energy. This device can also be considered as a sort of diamagnetic. By rotation, you stabilise the direction of the magnetic moment in space (magnetic gyroscope). Then you place this magnet with the fixed magnetisation (in contrast to the "fixed magnet") in an anti-parallel magnetic field and it levitates.
