Physicists have 'solved' mystery of levitation

By Roger Highfield, Science Editor
"Levitation has been elevated from being pure science fiction to science fact, according to a study reported today by physicists."......."The Casimir force is a consequence of quantum mechanics, the theory that describes the world of atoms and subatomic particles that is not only the most successful theory of physics but also the most baffling."

Where's Cuddles excellent post on quantum physics - I couldn't find it - I remember her talking about Casimir .....

Hmm, interesting, but I'm not entirely sure where the "mystery of levitation" comes into it. We've been able to make things levitate for ages, especially since the discovery of high temperature superconductors. The Casimir effect is strictly very small scale. If this works it will be useful, as they say, for engineering on the nano scale or smaller, but it has nothing to do with levitation.
