How can a magnet pull something toward it without ever touching it?

In this video, we explore what's really happening in the invisible space around a magnet — where magnetic fields come from, why some materials respond to them, how magnets can both attract and repel, and whether a magnet can eventually "run out" of magnetism.

From electrons and magnetic domains to the invisible fields that produce real forces, we'll break down one of the strangest everyday phenomena in physics.
