Using a scanning transmission X-ray microscope, scientists have recorded the oscillations of a time crystal for the first time (what you’re seeing here). Time crystals are symmetrical in both space and time and do not consume any energy while in perpetual motion.
One could also argue this is a form of perpetual motion as well.
Perpetual motion is easy. An object in motion will continue moving indefinitely unless acted upon by a force, for example something moving through the vacuum of deep space.
A perpetual motion machine is another matter. That’s a system whose moving parts can do work indefinitely. But time crystals cannot do work, so they are not perpetual motion machines.
