Most people today have heard of Tesla, the electric car company, and its controversial CEO, Elon Musk. Some might even know a bit about the company’s namesake: Nikola Tesla, the enigmatic genius who was responsible for promoting the electrical system that made our modern world possible. But the story of his rise to fame, incredible discoveries, his continuous battles with rivals and financiers; the conspiracies surrounding his suppressed technologies and ongoing legacy are less well-known. Nikola Tesla’s victory over Thomas Edison for the future of American Power has been virtually forgotten, yet is a fascinating story from an exciting time in history, while his blueprints for a world of free wireless energy and communication have led to an entire industry of conspiracy theories about corporate greed, supressed technologies and abuse of power. If you’re just a little bit curious about discovering who he was, what he achieved, and why his work still matters, then join us, as we dive into the life and times of Nikola Tesla; tragic genius and forgotten prophet of Science.
