Mini USA looks set to take a world lead in fuel efficiency with its April 1st announcement. It's no April Fools joke, but they gave information on its new magnetic propulsion system that will extend ...

Despite decades of feverish and fraudulent research, the perpetual motion machine remains elusive. By perpetual motion, gadgeteers really mean perpetual work. An object in motion, as Galileo and ...

Remember that zany Irish company Steorn, who claimed to have built a working perpetual motion machine that could produce clean, free energy out of a few magnets and some plastic discs? Well, they're ...

Perhaps the most persistent nonsense in physics: the perpetual motion machine. Bad ideas come and go in physics. But there’s one bit of nonsense that is perhaps more persistent than all others: the ...

We see our share of pitches for perpetual motion machines in the Hackaday tips line, and we generally ignore them and move along. And while this magnetic levitation motor does not break the laws of ...

We recently published an article on the Power Electronics with the headline, “Unique Motor Uses Only Permanent Magnets – No Electric Power Required.” We received a firestorm of criticism that this ...

Perpetual motion is motion which continues indefinitely without any external source of energy and in this experiment, the aim is to determine whether energy could be created out of nothing using a ...
