Ok. I understand. I am going to have to do some more research on the input costs v. output results. It just seems to me that in an orbital environment, the input energy to induce and maintain the spin would be less than the output gained in power production of the generator...strange.

I am led to believe the thief you mean is friction? What if the surfaces do not touch and the energy is produced by magnetic induction?

Good day everyone. My name is Robert. I have loved science my entire life, but have not pursued a specific direction until now. I often put my work first sadly. It is my plan after retiring from the military for a career in the aerospace industry. I have over 20 years expierence in aircraft...

I was reading a post by spongebob_79 about using counter-rotating rings to generate power and I had a thought. What is the general opinion of using counter-rotating rings mounted to 2 facing sides of a structure and simpily inducing opposite spins on the structures to generate power? Obviously...
