In 1891 Nikola Tesla stated:
Tesla continues:
When you think about empty space, what comes to mind ?
If you’re thinking is similar to 18th Century science then you probably assume that in the deep voids of space there is a
whole lot of emptiness. You believe that empty space is just that: empty.
And indeed, any visual observation using our very own eyes reveals two clearly distinct things: solid objects and empty space.
Looking through the lens of a telescope, this observation tends to reveal the same thing: in deep space there is solid matter (stars, planets, dust) and huge regions empty space.
But then again, we have more than just our eyes. Here on Earth we know, even though we cannot see it, that air is not just empty. We are breathing something. And in this invisible air, seemingly empty by primitive beings, can be tremendous energy. From a cool summer breeze blowing the leaves in the trees to a hurricane hurdling tons of water & debris crashing the shores of the southern States - the power of this invisible force is undeniable.
Thus, nature proves that what we cannot see, can still exist. So perhaps Nicola Tesla was on to something. That empty space is not empty after all.
We are surrounded by a quantum vacuum for which we call the universe. In the 1700’s the scientists assumed that the vacuum consisted of mostly emptiness. Further examination however, has revealed that energy still exists even when all traces of matter are removed.
In laboratories scientists have created environments which closely resemble the most farest regions of deep, dark, and seemingly empty space. What happens ? Energy is still there.
One such experiment that proves this effect is that with liquid helium. Every liquid freezes when it gets cold enough. Or so we thought.
Temperatures in laboratories are now reaching near absolute zero (-273.15 Celsius; the coldest temperature theoretically possible). What scientists have discovered is that liquid helium does not freeze. They have effectively removed all variables: with no other gases present and without any temperature. Yet something is keeping liquid helium liquid.
That something is zero point energy. It’s the only thing that is left when you remove all other energy from a system. It is the zero point energy field.
Is there an energy source available ? is it possible to extract power from zero point energy ?
That is the real subject of debate. It is no longer a question of whether or not zero point energy is real, that much we know is true, but whether or not energy can be extracted which fuels mainstream controversy. In addition, there exist powerful special interest groups who intend to keep a lid on any power source which can be used to acheive over-unity electrical output. Devices that would produce more output than input - and which would break free society from the clutches of the electrical grid.
