antigravity
Opposite of weight
Antigravity is a hypothetical force that counteracts or nullifies gravity.
In science fiction, antigravity devices allow spacecraft to hover or objects to float: The ship's antigravity drive hummed to life.
The concept appears in physics discussions as a theoretical possibility, though no such technology exists.
Antigravity also describes the illusion of defying gravity: antigravity yoga, an antigravity lean.
