The 10 Inventions of Nikola Tesla That Changed The World

Note: This article was originally published in
2010, but we repost annually with added info and links, as well as to
present to new readers. Please feel free to add your own information,
article links, or video links about Tesla and his work in the comment
section.

I would also point you to Rand Clifford’s 3-part series: Nikola Tesla: Calling All Freethinkers! which has a wealth of different information than what you will read below.

Nikola Tesla is finally beginning to attract real attention and encourage serious debate more than 70 years after his death.

Was he for real? A crackpot? Part of an early experiment in corporate-government control?

We know that he was undoubtedly persecuted by the energy power
brokers of his day — namely Thomas Edison, whom we are taught in school
to revere as a genius. He was also attacked by J.P. Morgan and other
“captains of industry.” Upon Tesla’s death on January 7th, 1943, the
U.S. government moved into his lab and apartment confiscating all of his
scientific research, some of which has been released by the FBI through
the Freedom of Information Act. (I’ve embedded the first 250 pages
below and have added a link to the .pdf of the final pages, 290 in
total).

Besides his persecution by corporate-government
interests (which is practically a certification of authenticity), there
is at least one solid indication of Nikola Tesla’s integrity — he tore
up a contract with Westinghouse that was worth billions in order to save
the company from paying him his huge royalty payments.
