Comments on: Tesla’s Tower of Power https://www.damninteresting.com/teslas-tower-of-power/ Fascinating true stories from science, history, and psychology since 2005 Sun, 03 Sep 2023 10:58:49 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.1 By: mcmoor https://www.damninteresting.com/teslas-tower-of-power/#comment-74635 Sun, 03 Sep 2023 10:58:49 +0000 https://www.damninteresting.com/?p=703#comment-74635 To pump energy and disperse it (not focus it in anyway) over the entire Earth and then somehow focusing it again on the other side of the world “with only 420 hp” sounds like something that horrifically breaks 2nd law of thermodynamics, in the same tier of all those perpetual motion machines that we all know work.

It’s like knowing that sea contains millions of tons of gold and claim everyone can get it freely “with only 420 hp”.

Gene warping was also speculated to be one possible outcome. Once humanity has altered their gene pool only Jesus himself could undo the damage.

I’m sorry, but I can’t fully follow your understand. I’m not sure why.

Will you please rephrase it?

Thanks.

It is my estimated opinion that Nikola Tesla was the greatest American scientist ever. He is the inventor of the alternating current (AC), wireless communication (wifi), the induction motor (electric engine), remote control, neon lamps & wireless electricity. This last invention is what disturbed Thomas Edison into not only firing Tesla but ruining him to the point that no one else wanted to work with him either. Edison’s reasoning is that if electricity couldn’t be metered then you couldn’t make money off of it. Skimming through the above comments, a couple of them have caught my attention enough to reply to. One concerned Mr. Tesla’s obsession with the number 3, having a pile of napkins handy before a meal, calculating the volume of his meals & a fascination with pigeons. Of course all this means he’s weird, as anyone with OCD will do the same thing with certain objects & concepts. It is a facet of genius. Another commenter wondered why the tower that Tesla put so much money & effort into didn’t work. The fact is it did work. Which is why it was dismantled. Edison & other energy magnates didn’t want Tesla distributing cheap if not free electricity. Oh, how magnificently different our world would be today if other scientists of his time didn’t see him as a threat to their pocketbooks.

I offer the following with apologies to Tennessee Ernie Ford: “Another day older and closer to death.”

Since the Earth itself is simply a giant magnet Why can’t technology be developed to tap into that potential source of power already surrounding us.
I watched a you tube video today that was a little over 12 minutes long. The frame at 11:33 had detailed pictures of an ankh and one of those sun things that reminded me of these light bulb magnet things, and I couldn’t help but wonder if they weren’t part of a technology the Egyptians hadn’t quite lost yet. (I’ll post that video behind this post)

Imagine a world where you don’t have to have wires coming to your house or batteries in your car. the power comes out of the air simply because the earth itself is a giant electro magnet. check 11:33 does it suggest a technology that
we haven’t explored.
