The magnet is placed over a super conducting material. Because super conductors conduct electricity with zero resistance, it repels the magnet making it float. The super conductor is usually a piece of YBa2Cu3O7 cooled to below 92 degrees kelvin. At this temperature, the substance changes state from a solid to a bose-einstein condensate and is a super conductor.
