Actually, If you want some good examples & explanations regarding the "Meissner" effect relative to superconductivity... Here's the link from Florida State University's/ University of Florida & Los Alamos National Labs - National High Magnetic Field Lab:
It is really neat how the field wraps around it instead of directly acting on the material. The ability to hold itself in different parts of the flux pattern. I.E. the ability to tilt, different heights or run offset to the center of the field. Normal mag levitation cannot do that. The natural currents running through the material pull off what would take a lot of hardware and sophisticated software normally. Neat post.
Too bad nobody has found a way to do that with gravity fields...well for that matter they cannot explain gravity yet. I am none too sure it rides on a particle like all the quantum guys want to believe.
