NASA Levitating Mice With Magnetic Fields

nickholmes:

“… NASA built a device to simulate variable levels of gravity. It consists of a superconducting magnet that generates a field powerful enough to levitate the water inside living animals…”

This is effing crazy/cool.

How far away are scientists from making a hoverboard like in Back to the Future?
