apart would get pushed together thus pulling the others back apart. This motion could be set up to generate electricity in a generator and therefore allow us to extract power right out of spacetime itself damn near perpetually and for free. Imagine that!
Interestingly enough, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency or DARPA has been looking for novel new ways to power small sensors and unmanned vehicles for various defense applications. NASA also has a similar requirement for small space probes. In late May 2003, I went to DARPA headquarters in Arlington, Virginia and presented an idea much like the Clemons Dumbbells to them. The possibility of extracting energy right out of spacetime intrigued them. It is quite possible that one day in the not too distant future we will be developing and maybe even testing a Casimir Effect energy supply. That would be cool. And a little further down the road from that, say ten to fifty years, we might have solved the Warp Equation correctly, developed a big enough power supply, and be testing a Warp Drive. Now that would be real cool!
