    Em Engine
In summary, the conversation discusses a video showing Tesla's engine that uses EM forces to levitate a piece of metal. The speaker asks for the name and architecture of the engine, as well as any notes from Tesla himself. They also ask for a deeper understanding of how the engine works. Another person states that it is simply magnetic levitation and suggests searching for "magnetic levitation train" and "linear induction motor" for more information.

Hello,

Here on this movie:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2256433507046558974&q=tesla&pl=true

at 19:35

There is shown Tesla's engine, which balances EM forces, that are able to raise a piece of metal into the air which then keeps on staying there.
If anybody is familiar with this, can you provide a name of this for me, architecture of this engine and if possible, some Tesla's notes on the construction of this? And else, if you don't possesses any known websites about the description, can you tell me how it actually works on a deeper level?

Thanks

It's just magnetic levitation, nothing to do with anti-gravity. Google for "magnetic levitation train" and "linear induction motor".

for sharing this video and question. I can provide some insight into this topic. It is important to note that while Nikola Tesla was a brilliant inventor and thinker, many of his ideas and inventions were not fully realized or proven to be scientifically accurate. The concept of anti-gravity and Tesla's anti-gravitation engine (EM) is one such example.

There is currently no scientific evidence or theory that supports the existence of anti-gravity or the possibility of constructing an anti-gravitation engine. In fact, the laws of physics as we understand them do not allow for anti-gravity to exist. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that Tesla's engine as shown in the video is a real and functioning device.

It is important to approach claims such as this with a critical and scientific mindset. While it may be intriguing and exciting to imagine the possibility of anti-gravity and free energy, it is important to base our beliefs and ideas on solid evidence and scientific principles.

In terms of Tesla's notes and the construction of this engine, there is not much information available. It is possible that Tesla may have had some ideas or sketches related to this concept, but without any concrete evidence, it is difficult to say. It is important to keep in mind that not all of Tesla's ideas and inventions were feasible or scientifically accurate.

In conclusion, while Tesla's anti-gravitation engine may be a fascinating concept, there is currently no scientific evidence to support its existence. It is important to approach such ideas with a critical and scientific mindset and not take them at face value without proper evidence and research.
 

Related to Tesla's anti-gravitation engine (EM)

1. What is Tesla's anti-gravitation engine?

Tesla's anti-gravitation engine, also known as the electromagnetic (EM) engine, is a theoretical propulsion system designed by Nikola Tesla. It utilizes electromagnetic forces to create a lifting force and counteract the effects of gravity, allowing for flight without the need for traditional propulsion methods.

2. Is Tesla's anti-gravitation engine a real technology?

Currently, Tesla's anti-gravitation engine is only a theoretical concept and has not been proven to be a viable technology. While some experiments have been conducted, there is no concrete evidence that this technology can be successfully implemented for practical use.

3. How does Tesla's anti-gravitation engine work?

The exact workings of Tesla's anti-gravitation engine are not fully understood, as it was never fully developed or tested by Tesla himself. However, it is believed that the engine would use electromagnetic forces to create a repulsive force against the Earth's gravitational pull, allowing for flight or levitation.

4. What are the potential applications of Tesla's anti-gravitation engine?

If successfully developed, Tesla's anti-gravitation engine could revolutionize transportation and space travel. It could potentially allow for faster and more efficient air travel, as well as enable spacecraft to travel further and faster by reducing the effects of gravity.

5. Are there any current efforts to develop Tesla's anti-gravitation engine?

While there is no concrete evidence of any ongoing efforts to develop Tesla's anti-gravitation engine, there are numerous researchers and organizations who continue to study and explore this concept. However, due to the lack of understanding and feasibility of the technology, it is unlikely to be developed in the near future.
