A new experiment shows a tiny electric current generated by a stationary cylinder simply rotating with Earth .
The experiment was first tested by Michael Faraday in 1832 , but his experiments failed, leaving scientists convinced it was impossible.
The finding hints at a previously overlooked method of harvesting energy, one that taps into Earth 's spin.
Earth 's rotation gradually slows due to interactions with the Moon and oceans.
Capturing a minuscule fraction of this energy would not disrupt the planet’s rotation significantly.
Instead, it would provide a previously untapped, renewable energy source.
Chyba speculates that future devices might use stronger magnetic fields in space.
