Gake To The Future
No, it's real, I just wanted to do the pun. :D It sounds basic and shite though:
"The hoverboard uses magnetic levitation with liquid nitrogen-cooled superconductors and permanent magnets to give the hoverboard 'frictionless movement' of a kind that had been thought impossible, according to Lexus."
(www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/11695267/Lexus-has-created-a-real-rideable-hoverboard.html)
Looks like we're stuck with sensationalised everyday science until someone actually makes a breakthrough in understanding/harnessing gravity. And then what would anyone want a hoverboard for? I'd opt for "Floaty Sneakers" instead. :)
