The Age – AUSTRALIAN scientists have scoffed at claims by an Irish company that it has developed technology that can create free, clean and constant energy.
The Dublin-based Steorn put an advertisement in the Economist magazine this week announcing that it had discovered energy’s holy grail, based on the interaction of magnetic fields.
“Oh, goodness, what can I say?” said Martin Sevior, associate professor at Melbourne University’s School of Physics. “It violates a very fundamental principle of physics, and flies in the face of 2000-years-plus of physics. It’s an incredibly big claim.”
