Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was a Serbian-American inventor, physicist, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer.
Larry Page, who wept after reading his biography at the age of 12, was planted by Google.
Elon Musk's spiritual icon, in 2003, named his company after him in honor of the idol.
He devoted his life to continuous research and obtained about 1,000 patented inventions, including: alternating current, radio communications, X-ray photography technology, radio, radar, fax machine, vacuum tube, neon tube, missile navigation, planet defense system and so on. Nobel had awarded him an award, which he had given up because it had been awarded at the same time as Edison.
Serbian currency on Tesla
Tesla has more than 1,000 invention patents. The system of scientific inventions in today's world is still built on tesla's legacy.
But the inventions we can recognize and adopt now are only those of him before he was 40 years old. His inventions after the age of 40 have all been blocked.
It is said that before Tesla's death, he was still doing research on super-energy particle weapons, and also proposed the concept of "beam weapons". But it wasn't until March 1983 that President Reagan came up with the Star Wars Program.
In response to the devastating nuclear threat, Tesla's concept of beam weapons has finally been taken seriously by the U.S. government.
Tesla described it in his own manuscript that his own special particle emitters could produce enormous amounts of energy at the end, simply by saying them (referring to their own inventions).
Can be used as excellent prevention and control equipment, can easily and quickly force 10,000 enemy aircraft to land or even crash from 200 miles away!
From his own description, it is easy to know how powerful his weapon is. However, unfortunately, due to the lack of supporters and the lack of a certain basic substance, some things can only be shelved, and finally there is no progress until Tesla's death!
If this technology is studied from then to the present, reaching a high level of sophistication, do you dare to say that nuclear weapons are the absolute hegemons of the weapons industry?
After Tesla's death, the War Department contacted the FBI, which confiscated all of his design drawings and experimental works and listed them in high secrets, and the US military's research on his papers has not stopped.
One document states: "[He] had 80 suitcases in different places containing his research manuscripts and experimental plans..."
Of course, Tesla is forgotten, in addition to the government's "ban", there are other reasons:
Tesla was a man ahead of his time, he saw too far, his inventions were too advanced, and at the time he was often regarded as a scientific heretic, and even considered a Martian.
It's one thing to make great inventions, it's another thing to get people to acknowledge them. In that era, there were too few visionaries and too little tolerance for innovation.
However, for this scientific giant who has been nominated for the Nobel Prize 11 times, let the sage 9 times, and refused to accept it twice, what is forgotten by the world?
As this quote from Tesla stands under the bronze statue of Tesla in Silicon Valley:
"The present is theirs, and the future I'm committed to researching is mine."
