Strange Towers in a Russian Forest - Tesla Generators

An intense electron beam produces large amounts of heat in a very localized area. The attendant rapid expansion of the heated material results in shock waves which produce cracksaround the area of impact. The beam is pulsed to achieve this effect. Two friends of mine were looking at this problem from different perspectives (one was an experimentalist, the other was trying to model it).

This received a lot of attention in early to mid 80s when the military were concerned about the effect of intense heat wave produced by a nuclear explosion, on tank armor (obviously, the tank was supposed to be in close vicinity and possibly targeted). It is possible for the armor to crack due to aforementioned thermal effect. Since it's hard to achieve in the lab, it was sometimes emulated with an electron beam.

On the topic of this thread -- I was dating a girl in the 80s who lived about a mile away from the structures depicted on this page, and I could see the remnants of the collapsed structure myself on a couple of occasions.

If you will take over a small nation, make it worth your while. Get the most bang for your buck relative to resources, and ensure a high return on investment.

Wonder how hard it would be to make Antarctica the United Peoples Republic of Pegasus? I bet Antarctica would give you bang for the buck.

RE: Tesla being responsible for Tunguska....i have always thought it more likely that Tesla, being a crafty businessman, marketer, and showman, took advantage of the opportunity to lay claim to the explosion. Or misapplied his own actions as a causative factor. I believe Tunguska was a natural event (likely extraplanetary). But Nexus has a VERY interesting article about Tunguska (the Siberian Valley of Death, I think it was called). You should search it out (whichever ATS minion posted the information above).

Are we sure the Russians know anything about science.
Dough nut coils hold on to the mag fields.
Nothing there exciting that way.
Otherwise, its a staged cylindrical coil transformer.
Most likely would tear itself apart.
Or a lightning arrestor for the forest.
The use of coils is overrated, except in the UFO.

JP Morgan knew what he was doing in stopping the Tesla tower,
that system seems impossible to work.

Yup protecting his interests... you cannot put a meter on free energy

It was highly experimental.

The more people write books and talk about Tesla the more they parrot
information we don't need.

We do realize that any science useful from Tesla was taken away by
the government with the stipulation of the MIT Science Director
in charge of the Van Der Graaff atom smasher that nothing worthwhile
was packed up in Tesla's 80 trunks.

And into 1947 500 public patents were classified.
Perhaps weapons stories is just what the government needs now to
cover its holdings.

The Russian high tension towers don't look like Tesla's from what we
know.

I have never seen anything like it, not ever the Tesla coil hobbyists
come close.
Russian designs always look like Aliens designed it.

Only one thing I heard conspiracy wise perhaps I'll check in the
air flight forum, that the designer of the Bear, Bison and Muskrat
Russian bombers was an America that the government refused
to build his designs.

I thought those Russian planes were quite amazing looking.
One never knows where a conspiracy with raise it ugly head.

I heard that those are rain makers and they worked.

Perhaps part of Tesla's rain making technology.

Pulsing up radiation to ionize the clouds.

Heat and cool the ether condensate making rain.

Don't have full details but it might take a lot of power to
work on particles 8 hundred thousand million less dense than air.
