a New York Times, July 11, 1933 article by Nikola Tesla entitled
"Promises to Transmit Force"
I has not really linked Tesla directly with electricty in space, more the experimental side of things, but it seems to be another area that he was aware of. What a brilliant man.
this is my favorite vid of him, gives a really good overview of his life and what he accomplished.
(for some reason it says it is unavailable???? it definately works if you link directly to it, this link works; www.youtube.com...)
Just shows how much in the wrong direction modern physics has gone, I spent less than ten minutes learning about Tesla in my entire three year physics course! and even then they didn't mention any of the interesting things, just that the unit of magnetics is named after him.

who said that?
, who matched me post for
post and source for source for weeks or longer..... I were not always the one to have the last word but that certainly does not mean that my mind were
changed and i do my best not presume that they changed theirs simply because they chose to stop responding...
