I was thinking probably around 2073.

What people are calling "artificial gravity" is not really gravity at all, in my opinion. Things such as an elevator going up or down, or a roller coaster, etc. etc., based on how it all functions. Here's my idea... iff'n you stand firm-footed on the surface of the earth holding a helium balloon, that balloon floats upward. However if you apply the constraints of artificial gravity that people have speculated, then that balloon will not float -- it will simply fall to the floor just as any other balloon would. Hence, so-called "artificial gravity" is hardly the real mccoy -- it's just an act of perpetual motion upon a still-standing object.

I think there's a chance it has ALREADY been invented. It would be disruptive to the economic well being of oil companies so could well be suppressed. I saw a UFO once and it made no sounds of propulsion and moved lazily across the sky just like it was using anti-gravity. Even if they don't share it with the citizens doesn't mean the government wouldn't use it.

Never. Gravity is a spin-2 (rank 2 tensor) theory. It does not have a repelling interaction.

One form of anti-gravity has already been 'invented.' Ride a roller coaster, a high-speed elevator, or go into orbit aboard some spacecraft and you'll experience it routinely.

Anti-gravity of what, machine?
Buoyancy force and centripetal force are kind of forces that
pointed to the opposite direction of gravitational force. Sometimes.

I would love to to fly over the busy highways that have turned into parking lots at rush hour and smile and wave as I go on my merry way. BTW, I just "got" your avatar name. It takes me a while but I get there eventually. You really have a great way with words!

If you know anything about Buxminster Fulerine, then it has already been demonstrated with super-conductivity. Unfortunately, most of you who use yahoo (no offense intended) are dumb, cannot or will not read, bother to read scientific journals etc. So what is the point in even asking.

we already have.
super conducting magnets can create anti gravity situations
its in German, just hang in there and check it out

it's already there for astronaut training and stuff, but i have a feeling it's gonna have something to do with magnets when it's commercialized.
