Gravity is produced by energy within space.


So, lets use some logical deduction to figure out what might cause ANTIgravity...

Antienergy?

What is antienergy, though? Energy that rather than bending space time in towards it, actually...pushes space time away from it!


This is actually a real phenomenon within the universe, called "Dark Energy".

But sadly, we're not really sure what it is and how it got there...yet :p

If we could understand and use Dark Energy, we could produce antigravity.

Theoretically using negative mass could produce a similar effect, but our understanding of "AntiMatter" is very limited at the moment, and we produce very little of it.

Scientists have theorized about it. Gravity is a force that has to be coming from somewhere. We know that gravity is a force that operates at the sub-atomic level. When something has mass it is subject to gravitational force. However, we know that things with mass are ultimately made up of things without mass (waves or energy) Somehow when energy is organized into an object with mass, gravity is a byproduct. No one completely understands how this happens. If they did, they could answer your question.

Also, there are materials that are known to block a percentage of gravitational force. It takes a lot of it to see the effects however. Areas of the world with high concentrations of gravity blocking material create "mystery spots" as they are sometimes advertised. At such places you can experience oddities in gravitational force. Beware, I have also heard that there are places advertised as such that employ optical illusions to trick people into thinking they've seen something amazing. I once visited a place in the redwoods of southern Oregon that I believe to be genuine. I surveyed the area and took measurements of what I saw. The anomaly I observed was definitely not an optical allusion.

here is a mathematically proven concept of 'negative mass'.It should not be confused with anti-matter because what we term 'anti-matter' is simply one 'type' of matter capable of annihilating another type of matter,it's all still 'positive mass'.Several novel space craft propulsion concept all theoretically rely on 'negative mass' which some physicist have claim to have discovered but in extremely small quantities .Some of these propulsion technologies are the Mach-Lorentz thruster or Mach Principle,then we have the famous alcubierre drive and finally 'antigravity'.All mass is positive.If you remove mass it turns to a zero value.If you go beyond zero or in other word below it you would have 'negative mass'.I think it exists all around us in infinitesimal quantities but we just cannot detect it.Yet.Gravity is a property of Mass.So I think antigravity will be the property of negative mass .I think we already feel the antigravity effect as the so called Dark Energy.

Anti-gravity already exists in the ions which form the ionosphere around the earth.
Particles ionised in the flame of a candle are repelled by gravity and cause the conventional shape of the flame - without gravity the candle's flame shape would be completely spherical.
I wonder - do gravity waves really exist ?.

The only answer I can give you is to ask NASA. You might try going to NASA's website, they might have info on how to try it. Sorry for the poor answer. I don't think it's possibly without lost and lots of money though. Best of luck to you and yours.
