How to levitate scientifically!
There are a few ways to actually levitate something using science, (magnetic, electromagnetic, and acoustic to name a few) but another way, utilizing high voltage, (my favorite!) there is a type of levitation called electrostatic. Jay from plasma channel I know, I know. We talked about him last post and the voltage multiplier he builds. But Jay has found a YouTube channel full of uses for these high voltages. One of which, is levitation. I suggest you go check out his video on electrostatic levitation , but for now, lets look into it step by step. If you read my post on building a 30,000 volt generator, (which I've now adapted into a 168,000 volt) you may now have built one yourself, and of course as soon as I saw Jay's video on electrostatic levitation, I immediately went to try this for myself. And, of course, got many 'o nasty shocks along the way. But here's how I achieved levitation...er sorta, I need a better set up to make it hover like Jay does. My ...
