BREAKING: While a new War for Oil erupts in the Middle East A Physics Paper just quietly dropped TODAY that will eventually make Oil, and the entire current Energy Industry, irrelevant. Ushering in the era of Zero-Point Energy @Harold "Sonny" White, PhD Here is the breakthrough

Traditionally we think of the vacuum as just that - empty But since 1947 there has been experimental confirmation via the Casimir effect that it is not empty. Rather, its filled electromagnetic modes whose lowest energy state is not zero

These "Zero Point" modes represent an enormous amount of energy For each cubic meter of empty space, there is 10e80 more zero point energy than the sun releases in an entire year Yet its always been thought to be impossible to get energy out of the vacuum, for a simple reason

The standard view of the vacuum via QFT is that this energy is in the ground state, the lowest possible state, and fluctuations arise from the Heisenberg uncertainty principle This means zero average energy, with no spatial gradients - so, no way to get 'more' energy out

The paper just released today by @Harold "Sonny" White, PhD instead models the quantum vacuum as a dynamic, compressible, acoustic medium with a quadratic dispersion Instead of random noise, the quantum vacuum can have structure, meaning waves, dispersion, resonances

Whats important is that this is emphatically not some "crack pot GPT physics paper" The lead author is a distinguished NASA scientist More importantly, their analytical model reproduces all the 'larger scale' predictions and measurements of quantum mechanics Exactly

This sounds like a subtle difference - sure, the quantum vacuum is like an acoustic medium But this means it is not pure zero-mean fluctuations, just noise, thats unusable Instead, it means the vacuum can have local structure, that it is in effect a dynamic medium

The company behind this is Casimir Space, lead by @Harold "Sonny" White, PhD , which has a public website available Claiming something that will change the world forever: Demonstrated extraction of power from the quantum vacuum using a nano-fabricated chip 25uA at 1.5 Volts

This sounds tiny, but, its already enough to power low-cost miniaturized sensors More importantly, though, is that this forever changes our relationship to energy, and even the Kardasehv scale Usually, all energy is downstream of fusion reactions Not any more

The energy density of empty space is so vast, it dwarfs the energy released by stars and galaxies To reach a Kardashev Type 3 civilization with one cubic meter of zero point energy extraction You only need to extract 10e-80 percent, or 0.000...[80 zeroes]...1% per second

This doesn't require billion-dollar fusion reactors or radioactive fuels, or dyson sphere megaprojects Casimir is producing unlimited power-chips using conventional semiconductor fabrication methods that produce tiny 'casimir wells' that can trickle-charge energy indefinitely

This means humanity already has all the tech infrastructure required to extract usable energy from the quantum vacuum, previously thought impossible And we can stack this indefinitely, larger and larger, to megawatts and then gigawatts This unlocks the Star Trek-level tech

It's early days for Casimir, but the paper published today and claimed milestones on their website make it unambiguous Energy, what underpins all technological progress, industrial scale, and civilizational abundance Is essentially unlimited, with no fuels, no pollution

What's more - you can actually come see Harold White present his technical milestones and explain this technology in-person, in just three weeks At NYC Deep Tech Week @Deep Tech Week, presented by @M31 Capital

people are rightfully pointing out that we can still use oil to put microplastics into our bodies
