Topic: Electrifying: Giant futuristic 'Tesla Tower' in abandoned woods near Moscow (Read 3192 times)

In other words Russia is trying to prove Nikolas Tesla right
I have heard if it was not for his unfortunate death electricity might be free a few stories of wires crisscrossing all over a field to try and generate some super electrical currents
Tesla Towers   (Next we will have Electric Railguns and an Index ^^)

Here is a moment when you can say you have lightning superpowers

The most interesting alternative theory I have come across is the Electric Universe or EU by the Thunderbolts Project, it turns the Big Bang cosmology completely on its head with very compelling evidence. It postulates that or Sun and other cosmological phenomena are electrically driven as opposed to thermonuclear, without black holes, dark matter and dark energy.

Their models though requiring further research are far more logical and self evident then the traditional ones, a great case in point is the rosetta mission which while remarkable in accomplishment to land a craft on an asteroid is certainly not a body comprised mainly of ice but rather rocky material.

If correct the EU would suggest massive inexhaustible electrical potential to be harvested without the need for nuclear, bio or fossil fuels. The way I like to picture it is the earth sun moon and stars are massive electric motors But so as not to steal the EU's thunder here are a few good podcasts to watch.

It was built to perform lightning simulation, which was necessary to test the aircrafts. It seems that it has autonomous power supply but I couldn't find the details.

Does this machine generate electricity? I guess I don't understand fully what it does. If it generates electricity, what does it use as fuel? The article says it's very expensive to turn on, so I don't understand what makes it so expensive to run. Is it the materials it requires to run, or the expertise of the personnel required to run it?

Tempting cause, but decades ahead of possible solution. Tesla had something today's scientist dont have , and thats ability to imagine.
Everything today is, even more than it was before for money harvesting, profit seeking, and not to benefit humanity fore free.
Many would not agree, but i dont believe its possible to make energy for all humanity (world battery project), i believe it was , and will remain, just an idea.

blablahblah
It seems that you can't stop thinking about the Communists even while reading articles about science, watching a movie or having sex.

Following him would be much simpler for you.

That's what I call awesome! 

Tadaam! Video of this device in action:

If you had actually read the article before posting, you'd know what these are for.


And also:


So, no C&C Tesla Coil like direct application yet, unfortunately.

These tower have any military application or just science fiction gone wrong?

So, are these the predecessors to Command&Conquer's Tesla Coils?

This is an exciting and "electrifying" project.
