The Man Who Conjured Lightning From Air
Picture a winter night in 1899. Against the Colorado darkness, a massive wooden tower suddenly erupts with electrical fire-bolts of lightning one hundred feet long crackling into the sky, visible from miles away. Inside the laboratory, a thin man with piercing eyes calmly adjusts dials, orchestrating this symphony of artificial thunder. This wasn't special effects or movie magic. This was Nikola Tesla, and he was attempting something no one had dared before: to turn the entire planet into a wireless power station. Born during a lightning storm in 1856, Tesla seemed marked from birth to wrestle with electricity itself. His mother, though illiterate, possessed photographic memory and invented household tools by candlelight. His father, a priest, wanted Nikola to follow him into the church. But Tesla had other plans-plans that would literally illuminate the modern world. Yet despite inventing the electrical system powering our civilization, he died penniless in a New York hotel room, feeding pigeons and claiming he'd built a death ray.
