Likely, another flop, but this one is getting some serious attention. If nothing else, it perfects using a few effects of magnetism for acceleration. The comments are Lail worthy too.
Interesting. I wonder where the energy comes from...
I'm eager to see more tests of this thing. I don't know anything about how magnetic fields would affect the potential energy of a moving system, which SOUNDS like the effect being harnessed.
I imagine it's something like that. Maybe it's in Google patents...
Lol, open source perpetual motion. I can just see the DIY cult and hippsters at "MAKE Magazine" folks with homemade vacuum generators
No that perpetual motion MEANS they'd would be possible, it's just what 'd I'd think would be the next logical step. (If it can be perpetual in an atmosphere / gravity well, remove the air and see if you can violate thermodynamics)
In reality as we know it tho, if nothing else they could make for an efficient kinetic battery / flywheel too.
Yeah, an oddity at the very least. Maybe they said the same thing about computers.
It's been theorised that natural laws can be locally altered, you know.
Everyone knows the only way to get perpetual motion is to take a cat. Put it inside of a turbine. Attach cables to its feet, tie the cables into the interior of the turbine. Next put a piece of buttered toast face up on its back and drop it down a turbine tunnel.
Cats always land on their feet + buttered toast always landing butter side down = perpetual spinning = infinite
power from turbine.
Now if anyone else will vouch for this then I could maybe get peta off my back.

You mean this thing (http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Murphy%27s_law_application_for_antigravitatory_cats)?
Bharlion:
Your lack of any intellectual input whatsoever is astounding.
Is there any additional information on how it's built/what the "explaination" is?
