Inevitable future

Towards inexhaustible energy

From fire to fission, each energy revolution has redefined our society.

Quantum vacuum energy – zero-point energy

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, states that we cannot know certain pairs of properties (like position and momentum) with absolute precision. A profound consequence of this principle is that The void is never completely emptyeven in the absence of matter or radiation, quantum fluctuations exist, small variations in energy that constantly appear and disappear.
These fluctuations manifest as pairs of virtual particles, which are born and annihilated in imperceptible fractions of a second. Although it may seem like a theoretical subtlety, the Casimir effect demonstrates that this zero-point energy is physically real and measurable.

What is the Casimir effect?

Let's imagine two perfectly parallel metal plates, separated by a very small distance (on the order of nanometres or microns). In the space between them, only quantum fluctuations whose wavelengths "fit" within that gap can exist. Outside the plates, however, fluctuations of all possible wavelengths can exist.

The result is that There are more fluctuations outside than inside.This difference generates a net pressure that Push the plates against each otheras if the universe were "squeezing" from the outside. This attractive force has been precisely measured experimentally and constitutes irrefutable proof that the quantum vacuum possesses real energy.

Put simply: the universe exerts a measurable push on two very close plates, demonstrating that "empty space" is not nothing, but something, and that "something" contains practically inexhaustible energy.

Beyond the Casimir effect: a unified theory

This observation opens a natural question: could this principle be extended to all scales? And what if gravity itself were not an attraction, but the push of a cosmic ocean surrounding us?

The monograph Gravity does not attract, it pushes. (published on Zenodo, January 2026) develops this hypothesis in depth. It proposes the existence of a Omnidirectional Cosmic CurrentA universal dynamic substrate that constitutes the authentic fabric of space.

The work establishes 14 fundamental principles that unify scales, from subatomic filtering to cosmic expansion, and addresses phenomena such as instantaneous gravity, dark energy as spatial tension, and superluminal transitivity.

Analogy with the Notatus engine

This same logic of omnidirectional push – the universe pushing from the outside in the Casimir effect, the cosmic ocean pressing in from all sides – inspires, by analogy, the principle of the Notatus engine.

This is an engine which re-uses most of the fluid that moves itpreventing it from exiting the chamber where it acts. It is as if, in an internal combustion engine, the gases that have pushed the piston could be reused cycle after cycle, instead of being expelled and lost.

That's precisely what the Notatus engine does with hydraulic fluid: It reuses it, it doesn't discard itAnd by doing so, the energy required to keep the system running is drastically reduced.

Implications for energy

If the vacuum contains energy, one has to wonder: can we extract a fraction of it? In theory, yes. In practice, we don't yet know how to do it on useful scales. But if we ever manage to harness even a small part of that zero-point energy, we would be facing a source quasi-limitedavailable in any corner of the universe, without combustion, without waste, and without violating the laws of thermodynamics.

Important nuance: Vacuum energy is not "infinite" in an absolute sense. The universe contains a finite (albeit colossal) amount of zero-point energy. But for practical purposes, for any civilisation that mastered it, it would behave as a source inexhaustible in human terms.
And thermodynamics is not violated because the total energy of the universe is conserved. We would simply be transforming one form of energy (vacuum fluctuations) into another usable one (heat, electricity, motion).
