Would it be possible to use the magnetics of the earth with modern mag-lev technology to create a fully functional magnetic hovercar?
A concept coming out of china seems to suggest it is possible. Take a look!
Now of course the biggest challenge to overcome will be the fact that this concept would only work in that particular area in china, given that it’s based off of the magnetics of the minerals in the ground.
Nevertheless, i’m sure humans could come up with something (magnetic asphalt maybe? Magnetized Solar Freaking Roadways? Possibly…).
