Usually, levitation was just apart of those magic shows. A thrilling thing to see, when the magician uses his mind to lift a spoon, or even a person. However, scientists from our nation have discovered a way to levitate that smallest objects. With the use of quantum mechanics, they were able to discover a force that comes into play when they used certain combinations that repelled one another. With this, the tiny objects will levitate, and create friction-free parts for tiny devices. Scientists hope that with this new technique, they may use it to create small nanotechnology machines. Although they have not yet levitated an object, Federico Capassoa physicist at Harvard University said that, "This is an experiment that we are sure will work." I think that modern technology and science has come such a long way. Levitation used to just be entertainment for amazed viewers in a magicians show. But now, we can use it for much, much more than that.
