Today, we celebrate the birthday of renowned inventor, Nikola Tesla. Born on 10 July 1856, Tesla holds over 200 patents, and the impacts of his work are still felt all around us—from our modern electrical grids to wireless communication technologies and beyond.
Who may be driving a Tesla, if alive today.☺️
Cuenta la leyenda que Nikola Tesla nació en una noche con muchos rayos y estruendos, la Partera qué asistió a su madre dijo "será hijo de la tormenta", su madre replicó "no, de la Luz"... Y así fue, de su genio, vieron la Luz más de 200 Patentes, de las cuales Guillermo Marconi empleó 17 para crear la primera radio, con la cual realizó la primera transmisión registrada en la historia, ganando en 1897 el Premio Nobel por aquel notable hallazgo. No fue sino hasta el año 1943 (año de la muerte de Tesla), cuando la Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos reconoció a Nikola Tesla como el inventor de la radio y le devolvió la patente en poder de Marconi hasta ese momento,
Dear Nikola Tesla, on your birthday we celebrate your brilliant mind and generous spirit. Your 200+ patents and world-changing inventions, from AC motors to fluorescent lights, have improved life for all. Thank you for your vision and dedication that still inspire us today. Wishing you a very happy birthday!
The greatest electrical engineer
It is a pity that no one appreciated him while he was alive.
Happy birthday Nikola Tesla,one of the greatest physicists/engineers/scientists
Hero of all time and my inspiration. I always find his invention stories interesting since childhood. I was weak in physics when i started to learn it in school but his stories motivate me to always be curious about science. happy birthday
Recently stayed at the New Yorker Hotel, near Times Square. And there were several tribute photographs+ to Tesla, in the basement. This said from someone who spent a year working in Schenectady, for GE Energy. With the ghost of Edison haunting me in my cubicle there! 👻⚡🇷🇸🇺🇸
He was a man of many ideas... it is quite unfortunate he did not live to witness the growth of some of these ideas.
‘from light to intelligent pixels’
1moHe definitely is my all-time hero, since my uni days. Not only he was the greatest inventor of all times (considering the science in his time) but he also was very spiritual. His father was a priest, but he believed in his dreams and will power. The AC motors and genetors came to him in a flash of a moment, while walking along the river. Then he drew the concept in the sand and joyously exclaimed “it’s working it’s working!”. He believed some of his ideas were coming from out of this world. And today, we have the Tesla cars (and all other electric cars and machines) proving his vision is really working. If it wasn’t for Elon Musk, i doubt that non-texhnical people would even know his name. One of my favourity experiments he did was when he created electromagnetic standing waves from his tower in Long Island in 1901(!), using the planet as a gigantic conductor. Mind blowing how far he went all on his own… Every teenager should study him and use his work as an inspiration. Среќан роѓендан Никола.🎂
