Isn’t UCSA claiming to have a perpetual motion machine?
No, not the way a scientist would mean it. A dictionary definition of perpetual motion is “the hypothetical continuous operation of an isolated mechanical device or other closed system without a sustaining energy source.” Based upon this kind of definition, most people believe that perpetual motion is impossible. Two definitions of perpetual are, 1) “lasting for eternity and 2) “lasting for an indefinitely long duration.” We don’t know if anything lasts for eternity since we have not gotten to the end of eternity (as if we ever would). But, we do expect our Hummingbird motor and Sundance generator to meet this second definition, to run for an “indefinitely long duration.” We (and I suspect you) are not so concerned about eternity as we are about what happens while we are here on this earth. It is obvious from nature that as long as you have a perpetual (long running) energy supply that perpetual energy (long running) is possible. For example, our sun has certainly been shinning bright
