NOT IF ITS IN A VACUUM OH SNAP SOLVED THAT PROBLEM.

the only issue is the small issue of portals not being real... that's just a small problem though.
If you had water travelling between portals powering a turbine in a vacuum it would obviously be a closed system. Since it's a closed system the water has nowhere to go when it evapourates and eventually condensates, the system would reach equillibrium and the water would seem to stop evapourating.
So there you go, it would work, the only issue is the small issue of portals not being real... that's just a small problem though.

If only there was a way without portals to get water to a high place and then let it flow back to the place it came from....
Now you're thinking without portals.
Portals happened.Anyway what happened to the funny in this thread?
How about just the sea evaporating due to sunlight, the moisture forming clouds, which falls as rain over the land?Yep, take the Bioshock approach by piping water into the Earth's mantle to boil it, let the steam rise up, cool, condense and fall back down. Easy peasy.

Too easy.
