- Portable device traps humid air, forming small, man-made thunderclouds
- Researchers compare their tech to harvesting ‘electricity from lightning’

Just like the replicator on Star Trek: The Next Generation, a new clean energy prototype promises to work wonders out of thin air.
The researchers call it Air-gen, a mobile electricity generation device that uses a network of protein nanowires to turn the ambient humidity in the air into contained, synthetic thunderstorms.
This ‘human-built, small-scale cloud,’ these scientists said, can produce electricity ‘predictably and continuously’ in a wider variety of conditions than sun-dependent solar cells or wind-dependent turbines.
The team hopes to see Air-gen scaled up for mass use across the world – in environments ranging from the Amazon rainforest to the Sahara.
‘The air contains an enormous amount of electricity,’ according to the study’s senior author, Dr. Jun Yao of Massachusetts University Amherst. ‘Think of a cloud, which is nothing more than a mass of water droplets.’
‘Each of those droplets contains a charge, and when conditions are right, the cloud can produce a lightning bolt,’ Dr. Yao said, ‘but we don’t know how to reliably capture electricity from lightning.’
Yao’s Air-gen solves this problem by replicating the conditions of energy-rich thunderclouds, trapping that charged water vapor inside a network of tiny, nano-scale pores.
Luckily, Yao said, a lot of different materials can be used to harvest energy from this technique.
‘It just needs to have holes smaller than 100 nm (nanometers) – or less than a thousandth of the width of a human hair.’
In fact, when his team first started testing this technology three years ago, they used a specialized material of protein nanowires generated from a bacterial culture of Geobacter sulfurreducens.
Essentially, Yao and his team confirmed that they could continuously harvest electricity off a petri dish using their ‘Air-gen effect.’
The 100 nm-size is so important to the process, the team says, because it scales to what chemists know as the ‘mean free path’ – the distance a single molecule of water vapor can float in midair before it bumps into another.
With these tiny pores, the researchers realized that they could create a build-up of electrical charge as water molecules passed through their nanotubes. The effect is almost like balloons generating static electricity, if they were forced to pass through a tube made of thick carpeting.
The Air-gen system creates a charge imbalance, in essence, as the upper end of the pore system builds up a charge in contrast to the lower end, just like the two sides of a battery.
‘The idea is simple,’ Yao said, ‘but it’s never been discovered before – and it opens all kinds of possibilities.’
Free unlimited energy resource- bull-shit!
Did not Nikola Tesla do something similar 100 years ago???
If this system is good, it may well disappear from public scrutiny and be used just for the elites. It will only be made public if the elites can make money from it by charging the plebs to use it. Such is Satan’s system.
Pentagoliat will harvest it for its
usual negative means .
Energy is all about difference, with direction not mattering. Wogs might have a better chance than Whitey of getting a new invention past Yid-man, but we have waited 120 years so far
In 1935, Tomas Henry Moray, built a working etheric energy generator which, which generated 50kW continuously, the operation principal is really simple, you excite the ether and it yields is energy. Claims are made that ether contains up to 2,73 google watts of energy per cubic centimeter.
(A googol is the large number 10 to the power of 100. In decimal notation, it is written as the digit 1 followed by one hundred zeroes: 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.)
Nicola Tesla, Gabriel Kroon, Don L Smith, Tom Bearden, Floyd Sweet, John Bendini, and many more have successfully build similar devices.
Remember cold fusion? LOL
Free energy they say, you’ll never see it.
The closet thing to free energy is a gallon of gasoline.
If you have an econo car, a gallon of this magic fluid takes you down road 50 miles.
Now that is some free energy if you think about it.
Yeah, right. I wonder how long this one’ll run for. My guess is we’ll never hear about it again (like all the rest). It’s “amazing” how “scientists” continue to break the fundamental laws of physics to produce click bait BS.
Thank you Tony O’Neill you beat me to it ! Breakthrough my ass !
“They” had this technology already for years this is just how they are going to slowly introduce it to the public; just like wireless. This Dr. Jun Yao is in on it and his team didn’t invent/discover shit; he is just the figurehead meant to usher this Darpa-owned technology to the public. Ask yourself why are they getting rid of natural gas, and petro base vehicles; forcing us to go electric when the current grid is unable to sustain such an endeavor. It’s because they have free energy devices already that could power the “globe” but they will not let it be known until we are all under their full draconian control.
