Zero Point / Vacuum Energy -2 Page 1 - 2 Introduction
The existence of Zero Point Energy is not controversial in today's accepted physics, but it's practical aspect is. The extraction and use of vacuum - zero point energy is for all intense and purposes a modern perpetual motion machine that would violate the thermodynamic law of conservation of energy.
This fact alone, obviously makes discussing and researching areas of practical applications of ZPE as untouchable as they come. The mere fact that a scientist may be investigating the possibilities that one or several of our already accepted laws (in physics) may be incorrect or incomplete would make them heretics in the eyes of their fellow scientist. Of course, most revolutions in science & technology usually happen by people who dare to walk the edge (or Fringe) of known science, and aren't discouraged by "Laws" that forbid investigations to the contrary. Remember, that not too long ago, most people were convinced that the earth was as flat as a pancake until of course Christopher Columbus proved them wrong. The ironic thing about this whole flat earth theory was that the ancient Greeks not only knew (and clearly stated) that the earth was spherical, but had also calculated the circumference of the planet to within a few hundred miles. Kind of makes you wonder what was going on in peoples minds during Columbus's days. In any case, it's important to looks at things in terms of possibilities and not absolutes and exclusions. Below are the next 6 videos in a series of (11) discussing the possibilities of extracting and using some of this vacuum energy. Enjoy! This next video is # 6 This next video is # 7 The next video is # 8
The next video is # 9 The next video is # 10. This is the final video # 11 Once again, one cannot overstate the practical aspects to using vacuum energy rather than current methods of energy production. We should also take a moment to consider what, if any ramifications there may be if we were to open a hole in the vacuum field. The first question that comes to mind is, can we close it at will and control how much energy can be extracted, or are we opening up the flood gates? I have a suspicion that we're going to find out soon enough. Why? Because if there's one characteristic property to human nature, is that if we can, then we probably will.
