Abstract
The current status of our superconducting magnetic levitation experiment for determining the magnetic flux quantum is described. The flux-up system has been improved significantly by using a Josephson voltage standard. Studies are also in progress to improve the mechanical measurement relevant to the floating body with the goal of reducing the uncertainty to less than 1 ppm
