And from the June 2002 edition of Scientific American page 15....

" Raymond Chiao...well known for his work in quantum optics at the University of California at Berkeley...argues that a superconductor could transform...light...into gravitational radiation, and vice versa...

"Even if Chiao's contraption works, it wouldn't allow the generation of antigravity fields...as Eugene Podkletnov...controversially claimed to have observed...

"Antigravity requires canceling out a powerful, static gravitoelectric field, yet superconductors have no effect on such fields."

For your interest (and much abridged!)
