If you are talking about magnetic levitation in the traditional sense, and not magnets as a component of a mechanism based on some other phenomenon, then I would bet that the answer is no. read more

Gravity acts on mass. Magnetism can only be used to create an (appearance of) a zero gravity room for objects which have their ratio of mass to magnetic moment carefully calibrated, and which are oriented in the right direction. read more
