Тёмная история башни Уорденклифф Николы Теслы

Nikola Tesla—the genius who gave the world alternating current, defeated Edison in the War of the Currents, and gave up hundreds of millions of dollars for the sake of science. But the strangest chapter of his life was Wardenclyffe Tower—a project that was supposed to provide humanity with free wireless electricity for the entire planet. John Pierpont Morgan invested enormous sums in the tower, believing he was funding wireless communication. But Tesla's true goal was different: to make energy accessible and free to everyone. When Morgan realized this, funding dried up, the tower was demolished, and Tesla died in poverty and solitude in a hotel room. But the strangest thing happened after his death. A few hours after Tesla was found dead, government agents entered his room and confiscated eighty chests of documents—even though they had no formal authority to do so. Physicist Dr. John Trump—yes, the uncle of the current US president—was invited to examine the papers. Some of the archives are still classified. Death rays. Earthquake-causing machines. Signals from other planets. The dove Tesla loved more than life itself. This is the story of a man who was either brilliantly ahead of his time or lost touch with reality at the end of his life—or perhaps both. If you liked this video, be sure to subscribe.
