National High Magnetic Field Laboratory at Florida State Reviews

I have never visited, however I have researched as much as I could about the work being done there. I think it is much needed research in magnetism being done.
But I feel something important is missing from their research. I see no mention of Daniel Mc Farland Cooks patent of 1871, US patent # 119825
.
This patent describes a Electro Magnetic Battery that produces unlimited amounts of electrical power. I would think in this time of energy shortages a facility that specializes in magnetic devices would be in the forefront of investigating a magnetic based device that can produce unlimited amounts of electric power. I hope someone there reads this and starts research of this patent to discover for themselves how it works. It is a simple device in construction, however its operation is some what difficult to understand.
However, I figured out how it works and I am not an expert in magnetism.

I would think a researcher trained in magnetic devices in such a facility could also. I hope so for the good of the planet. I hope this review sparks a interest in this patent at the facility. Thanks Steve

It is the biggest magnetic field lab in the world. Every year they have an expo day when you can visit all the tools and machines.

If you ever get a chance to tour the facility, it is full of amazing technology. As a user facility, research opportunities are endless.

This is a world leading laboratory for magnet science and related technology. THe scientist and engineering are some of the best in the world.

Excellent site to tour if you're in the area, my group enjoyed it and I learned a lot to.

I loved the facility, and the researchers they are preforming is excellent. Also the staff is friendly and helpfull

Fantastic tour and they have summer camps for kids through 12th grade

It was a great experience formy girls They were so small but it made them very interested in science.

Really fun to visit during their mind-blowing open house once a year. I even won a quarter shrunken down to the size of a dime with immense voltage. I recommend you check out Camp Tesla - one of their summer camps.

Great Scigirls workshop. Hopefully we can start a club at our school.

Science, education, and world records: what's there not to love?

One of the coolest places on earth if you like science or psyics

Science! If you haven't been, you should go to an open house.

The loby and visitor entrance is toward the left, in the glass building. Smart people, fun science, definitely come by the next open house

Everyone should tour this lab. The guide is amazing. He was patient, gave the group lots of time to look and answered every question. On questions he could not answer he found a physicist or some staff person to provide the answer. There is so much to see!

Just there to do a job. But a get place with good people.

Good atmosphere to study and good program.. plus cafeteria

Very cool presentations and demonstrations are held here. Go to their open house and see for yourself! It's cutting edge technology.

Nice place. Registration is needed in the front desk for visitor.

If you like science and you have a Saturday to spend once a year going to this open house, you need to do it it is neat the kids will love it and they will never forget it. Plus you might learn something too. I know I did

No reason other than my sister works here and that makes it fun.

Did their monthly tour! Awesome information! Awesome place! Learned a lot!

Steve, if there was a way to create even a little bit of energy for free, we would be all over it. I can't find the full text of that patent, but it sounds like one of many older patents with ideas for such things. In physicist's terms, it violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Even if we can't create energy, we can develop ways to store and transmit it more efficiently. The Mag Lab is a world leader in researching and using superconductors, for example. Many of our magnets use superconductors instead of regular Copper wire. It saves a lot on the power bill!

WEnt to the open house- lots of really neat things to see

The linguini was a bit overcooked, likely due to the fact that my magnet was resistive rather than superconducting. However all was forgiven as the concierge recommended a superbly paired nanovoltmeter for my application. Also the breakfast bar - or was it the tool shop? - had an excellent selection. Well done NHMFL!

I loved the Open House this year with a good friend.

We come to the Mag Lab open house every year and it is always kid friendly, informative, cool, and fun!! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable! Food vendors are good too!

Really amazing science is being done here. Everyone we met was incredibly friendly and willing to answer questions.

The yearly open house is amazing if you're in the area I highly recommend you check out this incredible factory of science! Amazing resource for Tallahassee.

I have worked here for almost 20 years. Great place to work. Great people with a passion for science and safety.

They had a great open house today. Fun for everyone!

Carlos was absolutely wonderful as we took close to 50 5th Grade students though the lab. The tour was great! The hospitality was fitting and the students learned a lot! Thanks Carlos!

We try to come to the NHMFL Open House every year and find something new and amazing every time. This is a very cool experience for children (and adults) of all ages. I'm looking forward to attending in the future!

That's really wonderful .
Dear people in this beautiful company, I've got an amazing idea of Mag-engine!! Giving free energy all the time be frank with you, I'm working on that unique transportation free engine. Best Regards, Salem.

It's the biggest mag lab in 'Merica. 'Nuff said. Go Noles!
