levityksiin
Levityksiin is a term used in Finnish-language speculative and fictional contexts to describe a class of phenomena and technologies aimed at achieving controlled levitation and reduced effective weight in materials and devices. In discussions where it appears, levityksiin encompasses both the underlying physical principles and the engineering approaches that would enable non-contact manipulation of objects through various means, such as magnetic, acoustic, optical, or aerodynamic forces.
Etymology and scope. The word is encountered in a variety of early or exploratory writings and is
