Anti-gravity

With science fiction of the past becoming reality, and current science fiction becoming a reality slowly as well, here is something that I was wondering if it would ever be possible: anti-gravity.

Will we ever have anti-gravity vehicles like in such films as Star Wars? Yes, I know it's not possible in this day and age, unless you count magnetically levitated trains.

How can we achieve anti-gravity right here on Earth? Maybe it could be done by considering the Earth's mass.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Earth's mass is 5.9736 × 1024 kg, so what is we had somehow develped a completely new type of metal, that's as strong as steel, but has the mass that is less than that of Earth? Wouldn't that mean that if we made a vehicle out of those types of materials, it would be like a leaf that is falling from the tree. Because of the leaf's light weight, it simply glides through the air until it reaches the surface. But what if we had constructed a vehicle that weighs less that a leaf, less that anything known on Earth, would that have the characteristics of negative mass? Or would it need to somehow have a greater mass than Earth?

What I have just said above doesn't quite make sense to some people. That's because everything on Earth has the mass which is less than Earth (obviously), but it's just a mind puzzling thing to think of. How, and if ever, will anti-gravity will be developed?

You could've said that more politely.

I guess dark energy, which is basically a hypothetical construct to explain the fact that galaxies are expanding away from the center of the universe faster than our current understanding of physics says they should be, could be credited with some sort of anti-gravity, um...power or something. But we've yet to actually detect anything like that, much less collect some or use it for anything.

Far more likely would be a vertical take off / landing type craft, or even some sort of hovercraft, except with vastly more powerful engines that are much smaller than what we've got today.

As far as the whole leaf thing, no. I don't think you could make a vehicle that's strong as steel and yet weighs as little as a leaf. Unless you attached a great big hot air balloon to the top of it.

i assume you would have to have something with such a high negative charge, that is repels against the earth. i think ioit might be possible, seeing how gravity is one of the weakest forces in the universe

I've now rejected the leaf thing completely.

All my life I thought gravity was the strongest force in the universe, but then I learned more and more of magnetism.

One idea I had for creating anti-gravity on Earth was to artificially manipulate it's magnetic field so that vehicles with an opposite charge could levitate on it. However, I began to reject such an idea out of fear that artificially toying with Earth's magnetic field would destroy the planet.

Very good point there about dark energy. Let's assume that luminous energy is dark energy's opposite. There's so much luminous energy at the center of the universe, with so much dark energy among the different galaxies, stars, planets, etc. that the 2 forces are repelling each other.

When you think about it, if dark energy isn't the force that would levitate "anti-gravity" vehicles, maybe it would be a field of luminous energy repelled against our own dark energy.

Or is dark matter the opposite of dark energy?

You shouldn't say that. At any point in time our view of the future is limited by what we know. There were scientists by the end of the 19th century that said there was nothing else to discover, as in real scientists not common people. Anti-gravity may seem absurd but if we were to travel 200 years in past, everything we have today seemed impossible even for scientists. Eventually, some major breakthrough may come along and a whole new branch of discoveries is uncovered.

Hell, even things like time-travel can't be 100% dismissed.

I tried moon boots myself. Not at all like what we saw in Arthur. :(

The more likely invention would be a focused point of artificial gravity. If you created an artificial point of gravity above a vehicle, it would negate the "real" gravity that the earth is creating, and cause you to float.Franklinstein

Where did you hear of such a thing?

What would happen if we took a large, superconductor, under a city, and used it combined with a large, rotating electromagnet?

Maybe when we find out what gravity actually is. Until then, we will have to achieve anti gravity by simply applying a force in the opposite direction.Overlord93

Then the closest thing to hovercars we have is hovercraft. Then again, does a hovercraft really touch the ground very often, or does it only appear to be touching it?

No, none of us can predict the future. All we can do is assume where technology would go in the next 50 years or so based on scientific and technological development.

But yes, I'd like to talk to xaos more about physics. :)
