A photo of the Tesla's stationary for the Nikola Tesla Company. Pretty cool, isn't it!
|
 |
A pretty cool picture of Tesla tinkering with one his inventions. I scanned this out of something, but I don't remember where and I'm too lazy to go find out.

A bust of Nikola Tesla given to various university's and museums. This bust is part of the project John Wagner has lead to help bring recognition to a public that barely knows who Nikola Tesla is or what he has achieved that has changed all our lives.

Tesla's Egg was a polyphase inductive motor that spun a copper egg on it's end showing the effects of the induction motors magnetic field.

A photograph scanned from the CSN of Tesla's Colorado Springs Extra Coil. In todays related mainstream terminology, this extra coil is known as a Magnifier. It is a 3rd coil driven by a hybrid 2 coil system via transmission line. The 2 coil driver has a coupling coefficient about 3 times higher than a classic 2 coil system.

A photograph scanned from the CSN of various coils in Nikola Tesla's Colorado Springs Lab.

A photograph scanned from the CSN of Tesla's magnifier.

A photograph scanned from the CSN of Tesla's magnifier attaching streamers to a coil at the edge of the lab. The person sitting in a chair in the photograph was superimposed (he isn't really there during the sparking). The photographing concept was obviously for promotional purposes.

 |
A photograph scanned from the CSN of Tesla's magnifier attaching streamers to a coil inside the lab. Again, Tesla sitting in the chair is superimposed.

 |
A cutaway view of Tesla Alternating Current Induction Motor. This motor may look familiar to you since it has been the "driving force" behind every type of machinery since it's invention.
|
 |
A portrait of young Nikola Tesla. Possibly his college days.
|
 |
A portrait of Nikola Tesla in his prime.
|
 |
Another portrait of Nikola Tesla in his prime. Nice photo here.
|
 |
A portrait of Nikola Tesla showing his well known "mysterious" side.
|
 |
A portrait of Nikola Tesla getting older, but still maintaining that "can't touch this" look.
|
 |
A portrait of Nikola Tesla much later on his life. Looks to be in his mid 70's or early 80's. Nikola Tesla graced this earth for 87 years.
|
 |
The worlds first remote control model. Radioshack may owe their Christmas revenue's to Tesla. Tesla showed how RF could be transmitted through the air.
|
 |
A famous photograph of Tesla next to circular flat secondary coil. Just a cool picture.
|
 |
A photograph scanned from the CSN showing Tesla in sitting in his lab with a discharged coil. Again, as mentioned above, Tesla himself is superimposed. If he really had been sitting there, he'd look a little different (dead, dark, and smoldering).

A statue of Nikola Tesla at Nigara Falls Power Plant honoring the inventor of the Alternating Current Induction Motor. This photo was taken by my friend Mark Bradford of Minnesota while touring through the park (on what appears to be a cold and snowy day - brrr!) Tesla's alternating current was the core technology to efficiently convert water pressure to electric power.
|
 |
A photo of the base of the Nikola Tesla stature at Niagara Falls. Kind of difficult to read.
|
 |
A coil which I believe is in the Nikola Tesla museum at Belgrade. Thus, probalby a coil built by Tesla himself.
|
 |
A picture showing the construction of the Wardenclyffe project, a proposed world system coil. It was never finished.
|
 |
Another photograph of the Wardenclyffe tower.
|
 |
A photograph of Tesla later in his life inspecting one of his high frequency alternators which survived Tesla's laboritory fire in New York on March 13, 1895. This inspection occurred 43 years after the fire. You can certainly see the bewilderment in Tesla's expression as he realized a device he built 43 years earlier.

Discharge between a 30" diameter sphere and a ground plane terminal. It's just a cool photograph I scanned out of the Colorado Springs Notes - 1899-1900 (which I'll refer to as the CSN onward).
