Now floats up to twice as high!!

The Levitron has been called "...the best new science toy in a generation" by members of the American Association of Physics Teachers. This new and improved Omega Levitron floats even higher, and thanks to the Starter (which Science Museum Gifts throws in absolutely FREE), it's even easier to use.

The Levitron floats in mid-air by harnessing the lifting power of two opposed permanent magnets. Once set in motion, it's stabilized in space through the gyroscopic effect that the spinning produces, and will stay floating for more than 2 minutes. Though still a challenge to operate, the specially designed Starter makes it easier to give the Levitron the initial spin it needs to take off!
