Discovering The Future

„Let the future tell the truth,

and evaluate each one

according to his work and

accomplishments.

The present is theirs;

the future, for which I have

really worked, is mine„

Discovering The Future

Already as a child the later physicist Nikola Tesla made extraordinary

discoveries. As a young man, he started the development of the now so

common system of alternating current, which has been applied in 1893

for the fist time on a grand scale for power production and illumination

of the world exhibition in Chicago. Around the turn of the century, Nikola

Tesla was celebrated as the “man who invented the 20th century” by

newspapers of all nations. Nikola Tesla called himself a discoverer

– rather than “inventor” – and his discoveries comprise more than 700

patents in the fields of cosmic rays, radar, diathermy, the high-frequency

furnace, wave-guide for microwave transmission, space navigation code,

cryogenic engineering, electrotherapeutics, energy transmission to satel-

lites, principles of solid state transistor technology, the bladeless turbine

and the reciprocating dynamo. Every modern time TV, radio, computer,

remote control, cell phone, fluorescent light bulb or tube and the basic

powering system required to operate all of them is due to the credentials

of Mr. Nikola Tesla. How could this creative mind and productive charac-

ter get into oblivion for more than half a century?

Nikola Tesla - Discovering The Future

Nikola Tesla was born on midnight between July 9 and 10, 1856 in the

small town of Smilijan (todays Croatia)

as the son of an orthodox priest and

what he himself later called “a truly

great woman of rare skill, courage and

fortitude, who had braved the storms of

life and passed through many trying ex-

periences”. After visiting the universitiy of

Graz, where he studied physics and ma-

thematics, and the university of Prague

for philosophy, he worked as an electric

engineer in Budapest, Paris and Germa-

ny. After emigrating to the United States

of America, where he arrived with only

a few cents in his pocket, he became

an assistant to the renowned inventor

Thomas Edison. Their first meeting was

Nikola Tesla

in 1884, initiated by Charles Batchelor, who was Tesla’s superior during

his assignment with Continental Edison in Paris. Charles Batchelor had

written to Edison: ”I know only two really great men in this world: You are

one of them; and young Nikola Tesla is the other.”

Edison employed Tesla as his assis-

tant and Tesla initially admired Edison

for his achievements on the base of

trial and error, as Edison had only a

basic school education. On the other

hand, Tesla gained Edison’s reluctant

respect by working eighteen hours

per day during seven days a week

and by solving very difficult technical

problems.

Thomas A. Edison

But Edison soon lost his diligent new

assistant. Tesla had described how he

could improve the overall efficiency

of Edison’s generator and Edison

promised to him: ”There are fifty

thousand Dollars in it for you, if you

can accomplish this.” But when

Tesla finally succeeded after months

of tedious labor and asked for his

money, he was shocked to hear from

Edison: ”Tesla, you don’t understand

our American sense of humor.” As

Edison wouldn’t pay, Tesla left.

After jobbing for some while as

construction worker with a crew of

roadmen in New York in order to

earn his living, his luck changed

for the better. He got the chance to

develop his system of alternating

current, for which he had devised

and patented a motor, a generator and a transformer. The industrialist

George Westinghouse from Pittsburgh bought all patents related to this

system from Nikola Tesla and signed a contract, promising him a cash

advance, stocks plus three licensing fees of one Dollar each for every

horsepower generated.

Drawing from one of Tesla‘s

numerous patents showing

his alternating current system

Edison was fighting the development of alternating current. His bulbs

were operated by direct current, in which the electrons are traveling in

just one direction. While direct current can be transported over only a

few kilometers through wires, Tesla’s high voltage alternating current that

changes phase in a steady rhythm can be transported over hundreds of

kilometers. On the receiving end transformers are reducing the voltage

for the end user.

But Edison didn’t want to acknowledge the advantages of alternating cur-

rent. He had invested a lot of funds into the development of direct current

and therefore considered alternating current as a threat to his business.

As a means of combating Tesla’s method, he publicly electrocuted dogs

and published daunting pamphlets in order to depict alternating current

as a deadly threat.
