…Alive enough to send lawyers my way, anyhow. The original domain name for this blog included the words “Steorn” and “Orbo”. When Steorn made it clear in their forums last year that they don’t approve of domain names that include their trademarks, I changed this site’s domain to dispatchesfromthefuture.com. I stopped promoting the original domain […]

Irish president Mary McAleese visited the Steorn offices on October 4th.   Irish president Mary McAleese beside Steorn CEO Sean McCarthy   While this is further evidence that Steorn is still up and running, she unfortunately was not there to announce a prosperous future of free and clean energy. Instead, she was commenting on the […]

After 3 1/2 months of almost complete silence from Steorn, CEO Sean McCarthy granted an interview last week which was published today at the Free Energy Truth blog. The difficult questions were left unasked, but the interview does give a feeling for what Steorn’s been up to lately. Here are some excerpts: On what they’ve […]

This week a video emerged showing the successful engineer and inventor, Thieu Knapen, discussing Steorn’s technology, which he has personally tested. His conclusion is unambiguous: Orbo generates free energy. “Then I saw things that… I didn’t believe.” Knapen founded the Dutch company Kinetron in 1984, where he invented the microgenerators used in watches that are […]

Today the Free Energy Truth blog announced that coming Friday will be an interview with someone who claims to have independently replicated the effect behind Steorn’s free energy technology. If true, this would be the first time that anyone outside of Steorn has been able to replicate the effect and talk about it publicly. Of […]

It’s now been over a month since CEO Sean McCarthy or any other member of Steorn has spoken publicly, to either the press or the forums. Whether they’re hard at work or falling apart, they’re just not talking. The situation in the developers’ club (SPDC) isn’t much different. Apparently Steorn has given SPDC members a […]

Far from disengaging from the media and quietly skulking away into obscurity, Sean McCarthy gave a fairly in-depth interview to the technology site Engadget that was published today. Much of it is an elaboration of what we have heard already: the reasons for the failure of the demo and Steorn’s plans moving forward. Sean directly […]

Prior to their recent failed demo, Steorn made a number of preparations that would seem to indicate complete confidence on their part that the demo would be a spectacular success. They readied a stunning and provocative demonstration space, called in the media, and were set to stream the event live over the web. They also […]

Amidst all the talk about Steorn’s spectacularly failed demonstration, it’s easy to overlook the most interesting new bit of information that did come out of all this — Steorn finally revealed what a working Orbo looks like. It appears that their press package for what they seem to have anticipated would be a successful media […]

Soon after deciding to cancel the planned demo, Sean made an appearance at Kinetica to apologize for botching the event and to take questions. Below is a video of his talk, taken by Steorn forum member Zen Master Lee.     Sean accepts full blame for the failure and presents an explanation for it that […]
