Nikola Tesla
(Nikola Tesla, 1856-1943, born July 10, 1856) is a world-renowned inventor, physicist, and mechanical engineer. Engineers and electrical engineers. Of Serbian descent, he was born in Croatia (later incorporated into the Austrian Empire). Tesla is considered an important inventor in history. He is also known for his contributions to electricity and magnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His patents and theoretical work on modern alternating current electrical (AC) systems, including polyphase power distribution systems and AC motors, helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution.
In the United States, Tesla’s reputation in history or popular culture rivals that of any other inventor or scientist. After he demonstrated wireless communication in 1893 and became the winner of the Battle of the Electric Currents, he became highly respected as one of America's greatest electrical engineers. Many of his early results became precursors to modern electrical engineering, and many of his discoveries were of groundbreaking importance. In 1943, the U.S. Supreme Court recognized him as the inventor of radio. Tesla never cared about his financial situation and died at the age of 86, poor and forgotten.
Tesla’s legacy can be seen everywhere in the modern world of electricity. In addition to his achievements in electromagnetics and engineering, Tesla is also considered to have contributed to various fields such as robotics, ballistics, information science, nuclear physics, and theoretical physics. In his later years, Tesla was regarded as a mad scientist and was noted for his claims to create bizarre scientific inventions. [1][2] Many of his achievements have been used with some controversy to support many pseudosciences, such as UFO theory and New Age occult theory. Tesla's contemporary admirers regard him as "the man who created the twentieth century"
He is a great man forgotten by the world. He invented the alternator, and Edison loved the DC power generation he invented. machine, trying to suppress Tesla. If Tesla was not forced to give up the patent rights of alternating current for the world to use for free ($2.53 per horsepower), then his dream is to provide the world with inexhaustible electricity. Energy. His life was very miserable, and I sympathized with him very much, but he was a peerless genius. It is a pity that not many people remember him.
He was born in Smilyan, Croatia, Yugoslavia on July 10, 1856. His father was a pastor and his mother was the inventor of the egg beater. In 1882, shortly after Edison invented direct current (DC), he invented alternating current (AC) and built the world's first electric machine. Alternator, and created the multi-phase power transmission technology. In 1895, he manufactured the generating set for the American Nicaragua Power Station, which is still one of the world's famous hydropower stations. In 1897, he invented Marconi's wireless communication. The theory became a reality. In 1898, he built the world's first radio-controlled boat and patented radio-controlled technology (U.S. Patent No. #613.809). In 1899, he invented X-ray photography, among other inventions. Including: radios, radars, fax machines, vacuum tubes, neon tubes, missile navigation, planetary defense systems, etc. Even the magnetic density unit named after him (1 Tesla = 10,000 Gause) shows his contribution to magnetism. .
When he was young, Tesla was very smart and could quickly complete complex calculations in his head. Teachers always thought he was cheating.
Tesla can speak multiple languages ??fluently. In addition to Croatian, he also speaks 7 languages: Czech, English, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, and Latin.
In middle age, Tesla became close friends with Mark Twain. , they spent a lot of time in the laboratory and other places.
Tesla never married because he could not handle intimacy. At the age of 40, he said: "A certain French actress kept coming. Coming to me, I can barely concentrate. It's such a shame, sometimes I feel so lonely.
"(A certain french actress kept comming to me and made impossible for me to concentrate. It's pity too. For sometimes, I feel so lonely.)
Although he devoted his life to continuous research and obtained about 1,000 items A patented invention, but his lifelong research was not for his own benefit. Unfortunately, entrepreneurs of his generation took advantage of the love and talent of this talented scientist, defrauding him of his research results and honors, and became rich because of his inventions. . But Tesla was in poverty and suffered from financial difficulties for many years. Sometime between the evening of January 5 and the morning of January 8, 1943, Tesla died of heart failure alone in a New York hotel at the age of 86. Tesla was deeply in debt when he died.
Why has such an extraordinary scientist been forgotten by history? Because although his alternative inventions have made great contributions to mankind, they have also made great contributions to mankind. In order to cause many profitable companies to collapse instantly, those who suppressed him include Thomas Edison, J. Pierpont Morgan, who supported him and then abandoned him, etc. After his death, the US government manually and secretly deleted historical records and reports about him. Most of his research results were confiscated and classified as top secrets, so his name was erased.
