Wardenclyffe Tower

Wardenclyffe Tower (1901 – 1917) also known as the Tesla Tower, was an early wireless telecommunications aerial tower designed by Nikola Tesla and intended for commercial trans-Atlantic wireless telephony, broadcasting, and to demonstrate the transmission of power without interconnecting wires.
The core facility was never fully operational and was not completed due to economic problems.

Nikola Tesla



The tower was named after James S. Warden, a western lawyer and banker who had purchased land in Shoreham, Long Island, about sixty miles from Manhattan. Here he built a resort community known as Wardenclyffe-On-Sound.

Tesla had 3 objectives for his tower:
1. Worldwide wireless communication.
2. Worldwide transmission of electricity.
3. A shield to protect the U.S. from foreign invasion.

Tesla's wireless and communications system did not use Hertzian waves to broadcast but rather used the EARTH as a carrier for the electromagnetic and high frequency waves.

Tesla was a man of peace and he envisioned using electricity as a SHIELD to protect any nation from an invading force . . .
and thus end all wars....To accomplish this he designed a PEACE RAY which the media quickly dubbed a DEATH RAY.

Tesla's tower could produce 100 billion watts of electricity!!

Tesla's magnifying transmitter could produce awesome levels of power by setting up stationary waves in the earth.

The awesome power released by Tesla in a few seconds defies description but it can be proven mathematically:

"The difference between a current that can be used to run, say, a sewing machine and a current used as a method of destruction, however, is a matter of timing. If the amount of electricity used to run a sewing machine for an hour is released in a millionth of a second, it would have a very different, and negative, effect on the sewing machine.
Tesla said his transmitter could produce 100 million volts of pressure with currents up to 1000 amperes which is a power level of 100 billion watts.
If it was resonating at a radio frequency of 2 MHz, then the energy released during one period of its oscillation would be 100,000,000,000,000,000 joules of energy, or roughly the amount of energy released by the explosion of 10 megatons of TNT.
Such a transmitter, would be capable of projecting the energy of a nuclear warhead by radio. Any location in the world could be vapororized at the speed of light" (Smith, HAARP, p. 43).


It's 7:17 AM on the morning of June 30, 1908, the exact moment when Nikola Tesla is testing his "Death Ray"
by aiming his beam towards the Arctic Cirle where he hopes Admiral Peary will see a visual display in the sky.

In the small Siberian village, herders of Raindeer are awoken by a huge ball of light, followed by an enormous explosion.
Seismic vibrations were recorded by sensitive instruments as much as 1000 km (600 mi) away. At 500 km (300 mi), observers reported "deafening bangs" and a fiery cloud on the horizon. About 170 km (110 mi) from the explosion, the object was seen in the cloudless, daytime sky as a brilliant, sunlike fireball; thunderous noises were heard. At distances around 60 km, people were thrown to the ground or even knocked unconscious; windows were broken and crockery knocked off shelves. Probably the closest observers were some reindeer herders asleep in their tents in several camps about 30 km (20 mi) from the site. They were blown into the air and knocked unconscious; one man was blown into a tree and later died. "Everything around was shrouded in smoke and fog from the burning fallen trees."




Work on beam weapons also continued in the United States. In 1958 the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) initiated a top-secret project code-named "Seesaw" at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory to develop a charged-particle beam weapon. More than ten years and twenty-seven million dollars later, the project was abandoned "because of the projected high costs associated with implementation as well as the formidable technical problems associated with propagating a beam through very long ranges in the atmosphere." Scientists associated with the project had no knowledge of Tesla's papers.

In the late 1970s, there was fear that the Soviets may have achieved a technological breakthrough. Some U.S. defense analysts concluded that a large beam weapon facility was under construction near the Sino-Soviet border in Southern Russia.

It was nice time spent reading his biography on wikipedia, very interesting life.

Particularly, it was very ironic the fact that he worked for Edison which declined his AC electrical current design and was later fired from the development team when he asked for a better salary and ended up digging up holes for the same company but didn't quit on his ideas.

Do you really believe in this "Peace ray" conspiracy theory?!?

Too sad that he wasn't readily recognized as a pioneer on radio communication, really unfair outcome but very exciting set of inventions that he brought to the world against so many obstacles.

[Mikorist]

Do you really believe in this "Peace ray" conspiracy theory?!?

if Tesla's experiments didn't work, why were they all destroyed?
Why we can't get any info on some of this work?

Now one generally today makes that big tesla coil like tesla-wardenclyffe-tower...


WHY?


Small coils like this you can usually found in schools, museums, home laboratories ...

More people need to hear about this forgotten man of history,
the legend that is Nikola Tesla.

Well, here in Belgrade we have
Tesla Museum but we still don't know who that man is - there are things he invented
which we, today, do not know how he did it...

Just FYI, a Van der Graaf generator:
http://en.wikipedia....raaff_generator
is another machine, working with a different principle, that can generate very high voltage with very, very low amperage, using static electricity, and is something that unlike a Tesla coil, every hobbyist can easily build.

My answer to this is in citation from one of hobbyist:

There is no denying the similarity in appearance of Van de Graaff generators and Tesla coils. Both produce high voltage electric arcs. However, the comparison stops there.

Van de Graaff generators are electrostatic devices. A potential is gradually built up through friction from a rubber belt and collects on the accumulator until it discharges to a grounded object, i.e., a ground rod or you. The rate of discharge is inversely proportional to the distance the arc has to jump. The spark is thin and makes a mild snap when it flies. It carries almost no current and is harmless (unless it's twenty feet high). Typical generators might produce 200,000 to 400,000 volts depending on the relative humidity. They are safe to touch while operating.

The Tesla coil is a dynamic device. High voltage radio-frequency current is produced at the rate the spark-gap fires. 120 times a second would be typical. Maximum arcs are produced in profusion immediately and continue for as long as the coil is left running. The sparks, poorly visible in strong light, appear quite strong in subdued lighting conditions. The arcs are purplish to whitish depending on whether they are allowed to go to the open air or are drawn to a nearby grounded rod or wire. A ground wire held close produces very intense sparks.

Tesla coils are not harmless toys. One must constantly be watchful of what is touched. It is said that the r.f. current from the coil flows over the surface of the skin, and is therefore not capable of killing. However, it is also known that contacting a high-powered discharge can cause burns and is extremely painful. The primary circuit of the coil is where the true danger lies; plenty of voltage and amperage here. An inadvertant touch of a fully charged primary capacitor, even with the coil *off*, can kill you. Primary voltages run up to 15,000 volts, but the discharger puts out anywhere from a quarter-million to a couple million volts depending on the input power.

Tesla coils are not quiet, humming generators like Van de Graaff machines. The spark gap is extraordinarily powerful and sounds like an unmuffled chain saw. Hearing protection is a must. The gap must also be shielded from the eyes. Then there is the ozone problem.

The bottom line is, if you want a toy, build a Van de Graaff machine. If you want raw, unadulterated power that will make your skin crawl, then go with the Tesla coil.

Just an FYI:

But Edison did not give up without a fight. He tried to convince the public that high voltage was too dangerous to use in cities. He did this with a series of demonstrations of the danger, in which he invited the public to watch as he used the Westinghouse/Tesla high voltage system to electrocute puppies and other small animals. Eventually he put on a demonstration using high voltage to kill a horse. Edison had also inventeda motion picture camera, and so he was able to make a movie of the electrocution of an elephant. The movie still exists.

The elephant movie still exists,
and we don't have any video or audio records from Nikola Tesla !

Nikola Tesla name has been stripped form recorded history and that is the Mother of All Conspiracy Theories...

P.S.:
Take a look at the time travel scene in Terminator 2 to see what I mean.

The sparks you see are from a large Tesla Coil.

Tesla said his transmitter could produce 100 million volts of pressure with currents up to 1000 amperes which is a power level of 100 billion watts. If it was resonating at a radio frequency of 2 MHz, then the energy released during one period of its oscillation would be 100,000,000,000,000,000 joules of energy, or roughly the amount of energy released by the explosion of 10 megatons of TNT.

WOW! That's quite a claim. One can't help wondering about the source of all that energy and whether it involves some slight amount of mathematical and/or terminological confusion -- i.e., power versus energy. 10 megatons of TNT produces an an awful lot of the latter and performs a heck of a lot of "work".

We talk here about that HF transmitter system is able to produce approximately 100 billion Watts of radio frequency power!

How much power will be required to operate the transmitter?
The HF transmitter system is able to produce approximately 3.6 million Watts of radio frequency power. However, the HAARP transmitters have been designed to operate very linearly (in Class AB mode) so that they will not produce radio interference to other users of the radio spectrum. To achieve that degree of linearity, the transmitters operate at an efficiency of only about 45 %. For every 100 Watts of input power 45 Watts of Radio Frequency power is generated and the rest is lost in the transmitter cabinet as heat. (As an analogy, a 75 Watt light bulb gets quite hot while it's producing the light you actually see.) In addition, the on-site diesel generators must provide power for other equipment used by the transmitters including the cooling system and low level amplifier stages. As a result, approximately 10 million Watts of prime power will be required when the transmitter system is operating at full power.

WOW! That's quite a claim too...

The Only Difference Between HAARP and Tesla Wardenclyffe Tower is that his transmitter could produce 10x more (in pure Class A) frequency power!

[Arvy]

Well, it's certainly an interesting topic and I really don't want to turn it into a serious argument. Perhaps I can just suggest very gently that the capability for producing anything like the energy of a nuclear explosion -- even a small one -- is unlikely to come from on-site diesel generators regardless of how their power output is manipulated.

Please don't think that I'm denying Tesla's genius. But even geniuses can have occasional momentary lapses when they become obsessed with an idea.

This is from

"Technical Memorandum 195" outlining projected HAARP tests,
there is a call by the ionospheric effects division of the U.S. Air Force Phillips Laboratory for HAARP to reach a peak power output of 100 billion watts.

Commercial radio stations commonly broadcast at 50,000 watts.

In my opinion, here is big game with numbers and my hope is that nobody
never in the world could be vapororized by radio
at the speed of light.
(This sounds like a STAR WARS Ship technology )

[Arvy]

Heh heh. If you want something to really worry about, keep a very close eye on that new superconducting supercollider. There is some speculation that it could become a black hole doomsday machine that entirely destroys the earth. Talk about some fantastic power input/output levels! Even if the earth survives, the good folks in Geneva are worried that there may be no electricity left over for them once they get that thing cranked up to full speed.

That cracked me up.

Not to stop you from your debate but the spark gap has not to be shielded from view because of the produced ozone, but because of the produced UV light. For ozone one opens the window!

If this Auroral staff is a TMT [Tesla Magnifying Transmitter], and these researchers
correctly understand Tesla’s work, we could be in a lot of trouble.

Do not know that they are playing with…

"....If we could produce electric effects of the required quality, this whole planet and the conditions of existence on it could be transformed. The sun raises the water of the oceans and winds drive it to distant regions where it remains in a state of most delicate balance. If it were in our power to upset it when and wherever desired, this might life sustaining stream could be at will controlled. We could irrigate arid deserts, create lakes and rivers, and provide motive power in unlimited amounts. This would be the most efficient way of harnessing the sun to the uses of man. The consummation depended on our ability to develop electric forces of the order of those in nature......."( Nikola Tesla, June 1919 )
