The UNSC possesses several iterations of anti-gravity technology, including the [[Antigravity plate]] used to manipulate gravity fields.

A simpler application of anti-gravity technology is [[Gravball]], a ball game played on "repulsor courts".<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 21''</ref> Other civilian uses of antigravity include levitating sculptures, such as those featured in the atrium of [[New Alexandria]]'s hospital. | |||
