There has been significantly debate about what is generally called “free” energy-energy that may supposedly, with the proper technology, be drawn straight out of the atmosphere, and in very abundant supply. The debates are about whether the stuff really exists or not, what it would truly price had been it to be harnessed, and if it does exist is it really as abundant and efficient as it’s being made out to be by proponents of study and development into this prospective alternative energy source.
When 1 hears the phrase “free energy device”, 1 may be hearing about 1 of numerous different concepts. This may possibly mean a device for collecting and transmitting energy from some source that orthodox science does not recognize; a device which collects energy at absolutely no cost; or an example of the legendary perpetual motion machine. Needless to say, a perpetual motion machine-a machine which drives itself, forever, once turned on, consequently needing no energy input ever again and never running out of energy-is impossible. Nonetheless, it’s not so easy to say that a new technology for harnessing the energy “floating” in the atmosphere is impossible. New technologies replace old ones all of the time with abilities that had just been “impossible”. Harnessing the power of the atom for providing huge amounts of energy was “impossible” until the 1940s. Flying human beings had been an “impossible” thing until the turn of the 20th century along with the Wright Brothers’ flight.
The biggest claim of the proponents of “free” energy is that enormous amounts of energy can be drawn from the Zero Point Field. This is a quantum mechanical state of matter for a defined system which is attained when the system is at the lowest feasible energy state that it could be in. This is known as the “ground state” of the system. Zero Point Energy (ZPE) is sometimes referred to as “residual” energy and it was first proposed to be usable as an alternative form of energy way back in 1913 by Otto Stern and Albert Einstein. It is also referred to as “vacuum energy” in studies of quantum mechanics, and it is supposed to represent the energy of totally empty space. This energy field within the vacuum has been likened to the froth at the base of a waterfall by 1 of the principal researchers into and proponents of Hal Puthof. Puthof also explains, the term ‘zero-point’ just means that if the universe had been cooled down to absolute zero where all thermal agitation effects would be frozen out, this energy would still stay. What isn’t too recognized, even so, even among practicing physicists, are all of the implications that derive from this known aspect o quantum physics. Nevertheless, there are a group of physicists-myself and colleagues at numerous research labs and universities-who are examining the details, we ask such questions as whether it may be achievable to ‘mine’ this reservoir of energy for use as an alternative energy source, or regardless of whether this background energy field may be responsible for inertia and gravity. These questions are of interest simply because it’s known that this energy might be manipulated, and therefore there is the possibility that the control of this energy, and possibly inertia and gravity, may yield to engineering solutions. Some progress has been made in a subcategory of this field (cavity quantum electrodynamics) with regard to controlling the emission rates of excited atoms and molecules, of interest in laser research and elsewhere.
