Update: Antigravity and Weapons Systems

Antigravity cannot exist unless something like an antigraviton exists. Heck we havent even discovered the graviton yet. As much as I would like to wish that it were possible, it simply is not according to my knowledge. False antigravity systems rely on electrogravitic systems.

Ok as much as I hate to admit it Westpoint was right for the most part. I did some research and newer computers using newer systems aren't affected. Apparently a magnet strong enough to screw up one of the newer systems would have to be powerful enough to rip the iron out of your blood stream kind of like in X-Men 2. But older systems such as most floppy disks are easily ruined by magnets. So ok go ahead and laugh I was wrong for the most part. But don't try this experiment on an older computer everybody.

CD only if you could see the smirk on my face Damn id like to have a magnet that could rip the iron out of people bodies I could point it at the sky and bring down a commercial jet or helicopter

Hey theres anti-matter. Theres an opposite to everything, including gravity. Probably something in another dimension that causes matter to move away from other matter.

No antimatter is not opposite gravity. It still has positive mass and still behaves normally, the only thing usually different are the charges, spins etc.

I think you missed my point. The point is theres an opposite for everything. Anti-matter was just an example as its the opposite of matter, in a way.

It may be opposite in the manner I have said, but the mass will still be positive. You wont have "antimass" in a manner of speaking. An antielectron (positron) and an electron will attract due to electrostatics and as well as gravational forces, although it is 10^40 times weaker.

Why will a Spindizzy take off? There was also that American flying triangle with three annodes.What happened to it??
