So lets say your energy creation method works.
No suppose the portal guns can only be made out of... I dunno, let say... an orphan? What then? |

potentially, this method could generate enough electricity, if magnets were involved, to power a home. With enough magnets, rods, and portals, one could power the world without using a a drop of fossil fuels.
Using the power of graveity to power the could alter the Earths rotation or axis. Just think about how every thing has gravity, how much is determined by its mass. The rod isnt just being pulled tward earth but pulling earth tward it. Because the population in the northern hemisphere is greater than the southern one, there would be more of these machines there then in the south. This would have a pull on the north end that isnt as strong on the south end.Changing the earths rotation could change world climate soo much that it could cause a mass extinction to every animal not given stable homes by humans. If the days become longer, night time would be freezig cold EVERY WHERE and days would fry us. And lets not forget the possibility that we drift to close or far from the |

Theoretically, let's say that there is no friction caused by the rod passing through the portal, and that gravity remains constant, meaning that it will always drop from the ceiling towards the floor, letting the rod go would mean that it would continually fall, even though it has been soldered together. This would then mean that once it reaches terminal velocity it will remain at terminal velocity until acted upon by another force, creating, in essence a perpetual motion machine that will never slow down, or speed up, or stop for that matter unless acted upon by another force. If portals are invented in my lifetime I will try this, and see what happens, and potentially, this method could generate enough electricity, if magnets were involved, to power a home. With enough magnets, rods, and portals, one could power the world without using a a drop of fossil fuels. |

If you let the orange portal fall, it would bend the bar, if you had enough force to move the portal at all.
If you shoot another portal, the rod will mend into the wall at one end and break at the other. |

no skye is wrong, read the question again. "the rod is long enough to meet the other end" do the distance between portals being in front of the other would make a rod of the same distance look like its never ending. hence the capability to solder them together. |

RedWarp, I'm not trusting the opinion of someone who doesn't know how to spell 'break' properly in that context. |

@misho, just consider that the portal gun takes a lot of power. It doesn't just generate perpetual motion. Rather, it creates the required energy shift by a constant stream of power from the gun, which explains why the portals go away when you die. |

Play the game. If something is in the portals, they will not move. You can't close a portal on something. |

Ok I can answer this!!! When you solder the 2 polls they connect to teachother from end there but not there other ending sides so its just a long pole now in too close of a sync of potarals to get out and seemingly enough would be stuck, if one portal is changed the other will let it out of the vortex due to interdimentional theroies and relative space within "connecting realms"... With the last picture it would be inpossible because the pole would "come out" of the portal and hit its origianl causing it to move in the same action as the starting strand. Also yellow portal is troll portal! |
