Don’t know why people are so negative on this? We get HUGE amounts of energy for free during space flights, when a spacecraft zips by a planet, and has its direction changed (and also speeds up, I think). Try doing that with rocket engines and you get an idea of how much energy that requires.

So where does this energy come from? Seems to materialize out of nothing but gravity effects, and so if it’s possible out there, why not on Earth, since we also have gravity?

No, none of that is free energy. All if that is an exchange of energy. All of it.

FFS, were you behind the gym smoking weed during high school physics?

That of course is the question.

It appears that in the first method, the energy is derived from a coil in the alternating magnetic field that is in turn operating within a magnetic field

Because the scale of the forces involved are radically different.

The only way to use gravity is to first break free of gravity. That takes lots of energy. Just like when a rocket leaves Earth. It can use the gravity of another planet only because it broke free of ours.

No different than pumping water up a mountain using solar power then use the falling water at night for power.

There is no self-sustaining energy device made by man. Even the sun is slowly burning out.

It comes from the kinetic energy of the planet. Yes, the planet giving the boost slows by some infinitesimal amount.

‘Casue every time something uses a gravity sling to change direction or speed a bit of energy is stolen from the planet.

Significant? Of course not. But, because this is the case it shows that this sort of move (gravity sling) cannot be an example of why perp motion machines COULD work.

They don’t work ANYWHERE. Kinda like every single version of communism.
