Of course it is free energy machine! It says:
"Using magnetic flux generated from permanent magnets, the only
renewable requirement is liquid nitrogen, and in an environment such
as space, liquid nitrogen could be recycled without an energy input."
. . . though the next generation systems will provide the energy
required to generate liquid nitrogen directly from the unit."
There is no energy input as far as I can tell from the descriptions.
You cannot continuously extract energy from permanent magnets any
more than you can from a spring. It appears to be a violation of the
conservation of energy. A perpetual motion machine, in other words. I
very much doubt it works, but if it can be demonstrated, I will believe it.
Anyway, that a catch-all phrase. I even refer to cold fusion as "free
energy" occasionally, and of course that would only be true in the
dollars-and-cents sense, since the energy comes from a nuclear
reaction in that case.
