Antigravity, free energy machines just don't stand up to scrutiny

Tabletop fusion breakthroughs are too hot for ideologically entrenched scientists

Bad Patents, Evil Corporations and the Rise of Intellectual Imperialism
(NaturalNews) According to a press release from Ireland-based technology company Steorn, the company has recently developed a micro generator that can provide energy with greater than 100-percent efficiency; the micro generator apparently provides free, clean and constant energy.

Because the technology is said to run without an external power source, and requires no other energy to perpetuate its energy output, it would have to violate the Principle of the Conservation of Energy, a fact that the press release openly acknowledges.

The Principle of the Conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only change form, and it is one of the most basic principles of physics. Steorn's technology is reported to not only produce energy at more than 100-percent efficiency, but to do it without any degradation of its component parts, and without any identifiable environmental source of energy.

The project began in 2003, the press release states, and by 2005 it was seeking independent validation from a third-party source. As the technology basically constitutes a perpetual motion machine -- accepted as a physical impossibility within the scientific community -- many academic institutions approached flatly refused to look at it. The press release claims that some institutions did run tests on the micro generator, but all refused to publicly release their findings.

Over the years, many people and organizations have claimed they created perpetual motion machines, but all have been revealed as hoaxes. Because of this, both the U.S. and U.K. patent offices will not issue patents for such machines. Steorn has bypassed this by obtaining patents on the all-magnet component parts; the machine reportedly has no electromagnetic parts.

As of early 2006, Steorn began seeking a jury of 12 qualified experimental physicists to define what test parameters would be necessary to prove or disprove the generator's efficacy. This challenge was put forth in a full-page ad published in The Economist, a magazine chosen for the "breadth of its readership."

"We chose it over a purely scientific magazine," the press release states, "simply because we want to make the general public aware that this process is about to commence and to generate public support, awareness, interest, et cetera, for what we are doing."

NewEnergyReport will continue to follow this story as it unfolds.
