You mean like anti-gravity? No.
But anything lighter than air will rise - hydrogen, helium, hot air.
You could fill a space ship with one of these. But that still won't work, since the space ship would still be too heavy for hydrogen or helium to raise it.

Here is an idea...
Since the Earth has a magnetic field, in theory, if you can produce a really strong magnetic field around and object you should be able to float and move in this magnetic medium.
Here is the trick. The magnetic flux of Earth is not intense enough to cause a reaction with the object unless the object can produce a really big field.
The energy required for this is huge. Besides, all those electrons need to be made to move in a specific pattern to create a magnetic field. Using cooper wire just won't cut it.

No, Orville, you CANT create lighter than air machines!
Yes, blimps use them all of the time, it just depends which envirnment you are in. If you had a blimp full of normal air on Saturn, it would rise at an amazing rate, because it's atmospher is mugh more dense than ours.

If I knew, I would not post it on the Internet. I would patent it and become mega-rich.

fermented beans produce gas which may be used for propulsion.
