You simply lifted the mass, you exerted a "FORCE" against a "FORCE" that was present. You did not "GIVE it that energy like we are taught in schools today, because you do not provide that downward "FORCE" you did not make it fall. Awesome video. Keep up the good work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DzEUxmiPMA&feature=share https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ Gravity is in fact, a conservative force, but because it is a constant, consistent force, applied whenever it's source is present, just like a magnetic field...it CAN be used to convert the provided force into energy. https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ Doesn't it require energy to move an object with mass any distance? But, if a force moves an object with mass any distance, how is that not the same? https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ Here’s an epiphany... according to astronomers isn't our cosmos constantly expanding? Isn't it also expanding at increasing speeds? Doesn't that mean that everything is “perpetually moving” further and further away from everything else even while I lie motionless asleep in bed? Perpetual motion in reality, in existence right here, right now. The devil is in the details. https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/green-tech/sustainable/gravity-powered-lamp1.htm https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ You did dot “give” the object that energy. You did not “provide” that downward force, you simply exerted a force against a force. The force exerted by your arm against the downward force of gravity. As that object is lifted upward, yes it gained potential energy. You did not provide it that energy, it gained it by virtue of its elevation. https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ “Lift” an object 12 inches, stop, and then open your hand on the ISS, otherwise in space. Q. How far did the object travel? A. Twelve inches. “Lift” an object 12 inches, stop, and then open your hand on Earth. Q. How far did the object travel? A. Twenty-four inches. https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ The entire purpose for posting these ideas was only to hopefully explain and describe the operation of how an upward curved magnetic propulsion field can in fact be designed and built to actually drive a worthwhile and useable load. I was told by a very important and helpful attorney, to whom I owe much gratitude, that I have designed and built a “cool toy “. After humiliating myself with a inadequate and faulty comparison to a conventional motor design, I only hope that one person that read this may understand what it was I was actually trying to describe. As I have described with the pendulum, it is a rotatable mass, while with the magnetic propulsion field, motion is not constrained solely to the rolling of a chrome steel ball, motion can be transferred to a central fulcrum, pivot or otherwise a bearing mounted rotor. I used the example of a ten pound pendulum, you can use a one ounce pendulum, it does not matter, a magnetic propulsion field can be constructed to provide the upward driving force to propel and gravity will always provide the downward force which places the driven element back into the starting position of the curved propelling magnetic propulsion field. If the rotating element weighs ten pounds, or one ounce, it will have the capability to drive any lesser driven load than its own weight utilizing a driving magnetic field with a gravity re-set making it so much more than just a cool toy. Good luck Andrea Rossi, I hope your Energy catalyzer can transform our world! http://www.youtube.com/user/michaelqshaw?feature=mhum#p/u/0/1l2wWl2DRfw https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ Already been done, but without the gravity mimicking garbage. http://www.youtube.com/user/PESNetwork#p/a/u/0/tgTcHAZaIyE All that they are doing is harvesting the downward force of gravity on the downward portion of a low RPM rotation. As you can already see in the video provided by the PESwiki website, the AOGFG Gravity Motor Prototypes 9 and 10 are visibly driven by a motor with an external power source. Any supposed over-unity is only possible gains from the designs shifting center of gravity, otherwise, from the downward fall of gravity portion of rotation. https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ What would happen if you built a motor that on the shaft we had rotors that rotated clockwise and then the next one rotated counter clockwise ... What would be the forces that could create anti-gravity or a force field to mimic gravity? The smaller the rotor plates the more effects could be produced. https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/ https://aeytimes.com/ideas/517/Harvesting_gravity_2/
