Rossi Cold Fusion 18-Hour Test Success

For those who think that cold fusion is the energy source of the future you’ll be heartened by the news that pioneering engineer and inventor Andrea Rossi ran an 18-hour test of his cold fusion device successfully without any mishaps.

Many people believe that future cold fusion will run everything from large scale power plants to personal power plants, cars, space craft and even small electronic devices. The emerging technology behind creating and containing cold fusion has been in the works for years.

Now, however, Andrea Rossi ran a successful test using warm water, 0.4 grams of hydrogen, nickel powder and some super secret (pinkie shake and decoder ring) catalysts.

According to NYTeknik, “The ‘energy catalyzer’, demonstrated to invited scientific observers in January, is producing heat by an unknown reaction. The device’s reactor is loaded with nickel powder in the presence of secret catalysts, and pressurized with hydrogen. When the device is ‘ignited’ by the application of heat through an electrical resistance, a reaction emitting about 10 kilowatts of heat output starts. Rossi’s hypothesis is that the energy derives from a nuclear reaction in which a nickel nucleus captures a proton (the hydrogen nucleus of) to form copper. This could be regarded as’cold fusion’.”

Rossi brought up the idea that there was some sort of fraud going on behind this event. He basically said that at the end of his career he has nothing to gain by using smoke and mirrors to get the desired results.

This may just be the cold fusion breakthrough scientists have been seeking for years. If Jimmy Durante were alive today he may just say, “Cold fusion? Hot-cha-cha-cha-cha!”
