Craig Pearson, of MUM faculty, wrote a book about levitation; i dont think it was published yet; but, it includes the spontaneous levitations of St Joseph of Cupertino, a Catholic saint from the Middle Ages. of course there wasnt much Science back then, so there is not scientific "proof"; however, the suspicious Catholic Church was convinced of what he was doing; they dont make just anyone a saint; in their way, they investigate things quite thoroughly. this passes for me as: as scientific as you can be for that age; this monk did float into the air.
