No, magnets create magnetic force. It's not anti-gravity, it merely counters gravity with another force.

Another way would be to put something extremely dense and small in the center of where you want your gravity. It wouldn't be artificial though it'd be real and I doubt it's portability.


yea but you could simulate gravity with magnents. a spaceship could be magnetized and everyone could wear a magnetic suit

the problem would be the magnets would fuck up the computers

i only ask because if youre building a spaceship, it would look primitive (and ugly) to have most your living space in something that has to perpetually spin around.  the other aliens would laugh at us. :)


Unless they went through the same thing, you never know

i agree with this statement. cept you could always line the outside of the computer with lead or something. doesn't that keep the magnetism out or something? =3
