Power source that turns physics on its head

"If it's wrong, it will be proven wrong," said Kert Davies, research director of Greenpeace USA. "But if it's right, it is so important that all else falls away. It has the potential to solve our dependence on oil. Our stance is of cautious optimism."

Basically this discovery, if it turns out to be such, would show that the quantum idea which is observed in this case in the orbits of electrons in an atom having particular distances moving out in steps, may not be quantised after all. In turn this means that there is potential power to be had in moiving the hydrogen electron closer to the nucleus, and that quantum physics will need substantial revision. Not surprisingly, there is a lot of controversy, but this idea has more corroboration at the moment than the cold fusion experiments that turned out to be not what was hoped and seemed.
Watch this space, cheap and clean energy could be a payoff.
