Nikola Tesla, Our Father of AC Current
The Wardenclyffe Tower
located in Shoreham, Long Island, New York.
One of the most important inventions of Nikola Tesla was was the
electrical transmitter. Shortly after leaving his Colorado
research facility and returning to New York, Tesla began
construction of an gigantic version of this invention, to be
known as The Wardenclyffe Tower. Constructed between 1900-1905,
the tower stood 187 ft into the air, with a 68 ft metal dome The
purpose of the tower was to transmit wireless messages across the
Atlantic and, as he had told his financier J.P. Morgan, provide free energy to the entire globe.
Tesla believed this to be a simple procedure, and later confirmed
through experimentation, that the Earth conducts electricity
naturally, much like a metal ball. Tesla hypothesized that Earth
could be charged from a single location and energy could be
safely extracted from any other point on the globe's surface.
The Earth could be pumped with electricity and anyone on its
surface could remove it by simply placing a wire into the ground.
This energy could be withdrawn in unlimited amounts for unlimited
uses, free for all the world's people!
The Wardenclyffe Tower was never completed. Morgan refused Tesla
the funds necessary to complete construction, and finding
alternate financing proved impossible. The Tower at Wardenclyffe
was later dismantled under F.B.I. supervision.
Now the Wardenclyffe Tower and facility is listed in the National
Historical Site, and on July, 1976 a plaque bearing the following
inscription was placed near the entrance to Tesla's Wardenclyffe
laboratory by the people of Yugoslavia:
IN THIS BUILDING DESIGNED BY STANFORD WHITE, ARCHITECT, NIKOLA
TESLA, BORN SMILJAN, YUGOSLAVIA 1856, DIED NEW YORK, USA 1943,
CONSTRUCTED IN 1901-1905 WARDENCLYFFE, HUGE RADIO STATION WITH
ANTENNA TOWER 187 FT. HIGH (DESTROYED 1917), WHICH WAS TO SERVE
AS HIS FIRST WORLD COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM. IN MEMORY OF 120TH
ANNIVERSARY OF TESLA'S BIRTH AND 200TH ANNIVERSARY OF USA
INDEPENDENCE - July 10, 1976
Doesn't it seem ironic that such a device existed back in the
early 1900's. Tesla had the right idea but the Government could
not find a way to place a meter on free energy. It seems such a
shame that we cannot work for mans benefit instead of a monetary
benefit of a few people and governments.
