The concept of antigravity, commonly referred to as a non-gravitational field, is making an area or an item devoid of the effects of gravity. It doesn't mean balancing the force of gravity with another force, like electromagnetism or aerodynamic lift, or the lack of weight under gravity felt in free fall or orbit. Anti-gravity is a recurring concept in science fiction, particularly in the context of spacecraft propulsion. In Newton's law of universal gravitation, gravity was an external force transmitted by unknown means. In the 20th century, Newton's model was replaced by general relativity where gravity is not a force but the result of the geometry of spacetime.Anti-gravity is not possible according to general relativity unless special circumstances are used. Quantum physicists have postulated the existence of gravitons, massless elementary particles that transmit gravitational force, but the possibility of creating or destroying these is unclear.
"Anti-gravity" is often used colloquially to refer to devices that look as if they reverse gravity even though they operate through other means, such as lifters, which fly in the air by moving air with electromagnetic fields.
