ZPEnergy.com - Energy from Space - Crazy Dream or Real Possibility ?

An older but very good article by Marco Bischof published in the Diwan Magazine.

Summary: Time and again we hear or read about claims of inventors, who believe they have invented machines powered by "Free Energy" from space. Engineers and scientists asked for their opinion about this usually state that such „perpetuum mobiles" (self-powered engines) are not possible according to the laws of physics. Not long after such announcements, we usually read reports making the whole thing appear as fraud or self-deception of the inventors. However, this matter cannot so easily be dismissed. Even if many of these inventions are indeed doomed to failure because of self-deception, fraud, or a lack of technical or scientific knowledge, certain findings of modern physics show that energy from space need not necessarily remain science fiction...

Current Affairs
The RQM Shareholders’ Meeting in September 1997
In September 1997, Jean-Marie Lehner, president of the board of directors and managing director of RQM Raum-Quanten-Motor AG at Rapperswil, Switzerland, invited the shareholders for the 4th regular shareholders’ meeting to Jona near Zurich (see Schöttl, 1997). In spite of the many critical questions from the 200 shareholders as to when the production and sale of the apparatus would be taken up and bring the long-desired dividend, Lehner managed with eloquence and tactical cleverness to obtain another raising of the stock from 4 to 6 million Swiss franks. He argued RQM was in need of new capital for the quick solution of the technical problems which repeatedly had occurred but basically were manageable. The biggest shareholder, the Leipzig company Genova, holding 25% of RQM with an investment of 4 million franks, presently was not willing to pay in additional funds. They now have massively lost voting power through the raising of the stock. The creation of new shares reserved for the RQM staff which would have shifted the voting balance to the advantage of the staff was not accepted by the shareholders. Like the raising of the stock, it was supposed to prevent the alleged unfriendly takeover by some „raider".

The RQM Testing Station in Switzerland
The program of the shareholders’ meeting included the inspection of the RQM laboratory in an industrial building in the nearby village of Neuhaus, where the RQM testing station is operating since 4 years. According to a statement of the company, it has produced surplus electrical power up to a month before the meeting, but at the inspection by shareholders, experts, and the press its efficiency mysteriously was again lower than 1. In the summer of 1997, a scientific assessment by Professor Gruhn from the Technical College of Leipzig still had attested an efficiency of up to 4 to the RQM testing apparatus. Another fact is that the RQM prototype, in spite of the promise made by RQM to bring generators of 200 kilowatts output on the market by 1996, today shows an output of not even 1 kilowatt. However, I have to concede in favor of RQM AG that they now at least possess a working prototype, while in 1993 on the occasion of the first issuing of stocks, they did not even have construction plans for it and got the Eureka Inventors Prize in Brussels with a non-functional dummy. Lehner stated at the shareholders’ meeting that in 91 countries patents for the space-quantum motor have been registered and/or licences sold. For 1998 he announced the entry into the US market and the quotation of the RQM stocks at the NASDAQ risk capital stock exchange.

The State of Affairs February 1998
According to Inge Schneider of NET-Journal (Zurich) (Schneider, 1998) major RQM shareholders contradict Lehner’s announcement that the breakthrough for RQM is imminent. On March 1st, the electrical mains network at RQM will be sealed to make an unquestionable examination of the input and output of the RQM installation possible. Then the input and output is to be measured by offical authorities, and in the case of good results, they intend to inform the public. But even after the achievement of good results, it will take at least a year and a half until the generator can go into mass production. Thus, it may well happen that other inventors who already now achieve „over-unity" with somewhat less PR and capital, will get in front of RQM. Inge Schneider points out that yet this spring the free-energy apparatus of Nelson Camus from Los Angeles, which was presented at their conference from December 6 (see Schneider 1997 und 1998), will be installed in a hotel in the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland. Although Camus presented his electricity bill as a proof that he no longer was drawing any electricity from the mains, Mrs. Schneider emphasizes that she has become prudent from many years’ experience with the „free energy" scene and will not believe it before the device has been installed and tested according to the conditions of the hotel owner and his consultants...
