I've already replied to Hansen's text below: this is an addendum to my
own reply.

So, let's see...in the magnetic levitation experiments, as actually
performed, the change in magnetic field strength is 10 to 16 T (i.e.,
from an initial value of zero to an end value of 10-16 T). Why aren't
those frogs cooked, Mr. Hansen, if changes in field strength result in
heating currents in the levitated body? Please don't tell us that they
take hours to build up the magnetic field strength to those levels,
because they don't.
