And, no, he’s not re-invented the (water)wheel.

According to an article in UK broadsheet “The Guardian”, by their science correspondant Alok Jha: -

“It seems too good to be true: a new source of near-limitless power that costs virtually nothing, uses tiny amounts of water as its fuel and produces next to no waste. If that does not sound radical enough, how about this: the principle behind the source turns modern physics on its head.”

It seems Randell Mills has let a number of physicists look at his equipment and data, and they appear fairly positive (except the quantum physicists, who were still uncertain).

Cold fusion, anyone?

I made this same doscovery as a child. around 10 yr. old….....I once operated a “Water Rocket”....It would travel at least 60 ft. into the air, and it was only powerd by water…...what amatures, lol….

Cold fusion, anyone?

But if he’s really succeeded in making the GS of Hydrogen smaller, we’ll be able to pack much more of it into a palladium electrode and maybe get that to work too!* smile

[*] This is basically the principle behind muon-catalyzed cold fusion.
