#头条创作挑战赛#在人类漫长的历史长河中, there are always some outstanding people whose ideas and achievements transcend their time and amaze future generations. Among these great figures, there are three gods who are considered to be the most like time-travelers, and they are Nikola Tesla, Leonardo da Vinci, and Wang Mang.
Nikola Tesla, known as the man closest to God, is full of legends in his life. Tesla had a super-genius life experience, and his ideas and designs were regarded as miracles by his contemporaries, and even gave him the nickname "Time Traveler".
Tesla was an inventor, a physicist, and an engineer. In his later years, he devoted himself to the electrical industry. He held more than 700 patents during his lifetime, and his achievements are remarkable.
When Tesla was 30 years old, he independently designed the Niagara Hydroelectric Power Station. The hydropower plant is still in operation today, which shows that its design is sophisticated and forward-looking. Many people know a lot about Tesla's deeds, and today, we're going to take a deeper look at his unrealized ideas.
In his autobiographical memoirs, Tesla mentions that the most regrettable project he failed to realize in his life was the "World System". He envisioned the precise transmission of information, including pictures, words and sounds, by radio. Without modifying existing equipment, only annunciators need to be installed all over the world, and the sender and receiver can easily transmit information instantaneously and even send voice together with just one electronic device in hand. Moreover, the cost of this method of delivery is low, and the price cannot be higher than that of some kind of high-end watch.
When we hear about Tesla's vision, it probably doesn't seem too outrageous, because it's very similar to what we do today with the Internet and mobile phones. But keep in mind that the web was invented in 1969, the first civilian commercial phone was sold in 1973, and Tesla died back in 1943. This is enough to prove how advanced the "world system" envisioned by Tesla is, and it is no wonder that Elon Musk, the world's richest man, regards it as the ultimate idol.
Leonardo da Vinci, who was considered by many to be just a painter, made the Mona Lisa a priceless. However, painting is just a side hustle of the great god.
Leonardo da Vinci was proficient in sculpture, architectural design, invention and creation, construction machinery, geological survey, mathematics, astronomy and many other fields, almost everything. His talent made his contemporaries wonder, could one person really have enough time to study so many subjects?
Unlike Tesla, many of Leonardo da Vinci's ideas are mostly based on thinking ideas and fail to put them into practice. This also makes many people think that he is only good at talking on paper. But if you have the opportunity to read the more than 5,000 pages of manuscripts left by Leonardo da Vinci, you will immediately change that opinion. Because the manuscript contains countless designs that have been proven to be viable by later generations, some of the ideas are centuries ahead of their contemporaries.
Albert Einstein, who was also a physicist, once said that if Leonardo da Vinci had only studied physics in his middle life, the level of science and technology would have been greatly improved. Leonardo da Vinci was one such person who would change careers after he had studied a subject to the extreme. Perhaps because of this, he didn't have enough time to test whether his idea was true. After all, life is finite, and like Tesla, he spent most of his short life seeking wealthy people who could support him.
And the third figure who is suspected of being a traverser is Wang Mang, the usurper of the Han Dynasty on the mainland. Today, the best evidence of the identity of the traverser is the vernier caliper. You know, this seemingly modern tool has a history of 2,000 years, and it's hard to imagine how the designer Wang Mang did it.
But the evidence of crossing over Wang Mang's body is far more than that. Immediately after his accession to the throne, a series of new policies were promulgated. The first was land reform, in which Wang Mang directly abolished the privatization of land, took back land from the imperial power and nobles, and distributed it to the common people, unlike his contemporaries, who regarded the world as the land of the emperor. This was a groundbreaking and forward-looking move at the time.
The second is the abolition of slavery. In those days, not only was there a hereditary system for officials, but also for slaves. Wang Mang, regardless of the interests of imperial power, directly abolished this system and advocated equality for all. This concept was very advanced at the time, even surpassing many modern concepts.
The third is the planned economy. In order to make the social resources can be reasonably distributed, Wang Mang asked the imperial court to recycle and redistribute the resources, forming the initial social and economic prototype. He also introduced a system of loans for the poor and low-cost housing, which showed that he was thinking ahead of his time.
It has to be said that Wang Mang's thinking is 2,000 years ahead of his contemporaries, and it is no wonder that even the great writer Hu Shi said that he was the first socialist in Chinese history.
Nikola Tesla, Leonardo da Vinci and Wang Mang, three characters who are suspected of being time-travelers, their thoughts and achievements fill us with curiosity and awe about history. They are like messengers who travel back to the past from the future, leaving a precious legacy to mankind. Their stories also make us wonder what the potential of human wisdom really is, and whether there are more untapped possibilities.
Looking back on history, we marvel at the talent and vision of these great people. Their existence makes us believe that in the course of human development, there will always be some pioneers who break through the limitations of the times and open up the way for the future. Their stories will always inspire us to explore, innovate and move forward towards a better future.
Although our knowledge of these three time-travelers is only the tip of the iceberg, their legends have been deeply engraved in the long river of human history. Let's continue to follow in their footsteps, explore the mysteries behind them, and feel the inspiration and power they bring to us. Perhaps, one day in the future, we can also create miracles that transcend the times, just like them. #爆料 ##头条热点#
