Some possible alternative to Gravity or Inertia

So most Worldbuilders who are interested in Space Travel in their world have to think about or work around gravity and inertia. <br><br>After some research these are the most common ways of handling these two basic forces of physics:<br><br>- Artificial gravity through acceleration and rotation <br>- Simulating gravity through magnetic fields<br>- Inertia dampeners that cancel the accelerating force acting on the body<br>- Advanced gravitation manipulation ( warp drives and all these other technologies which we as of now don't understand)<br>- Higher tolerances of Humans to g-forces<br><br>But after researching a lot of these topics I wondered what other ways there are to circumvent these forces. <br><br>So I would be really happy if you could post or link any other ideas or theories that you have encountered which circumvent inertia and gravity through a physics based (For the lack of a better word) method or technology.<br><br>I personally think that a lot of settings go for the inertia dampeners because they are so easy to integrate into a story or lore. But a lot of other technologies could have large implications on the setting. <br><br>For example if we somehow manipulate magnetic fields to simulate gravity on a ship humans could potentially live a full life in space without any side effects from micro-gravity environments.
