Russian Physicists to Rebuild Tesla’s Wardenclyffe Tower and Power the World

Note from Stephen Cook: We must be back on the Tesla timeline this weekend – 71 years later. This story follows yesterday’s story on Tesla cars (no relation) allowing its technology for powering and building electric vehicles to be open sourced.

“Tesla was right and we are ready to prove it!”
So say the two Russian physicists who have just launched an Indiegogo campaign to rebuild Nikola Tesla’s Wardenclyffe Tower in Fall, 2014.
Tesla believed that the tower could transmit power wirelessly but this was never definitively proven in his lifetime. If he was right, and after extensive study the team are convinced he was, the project could provide an efficient, worldwide energy transmission system that would distribute all the clean energy we can use.That Tesla was a genius is undisputed even by his detractors, but more than 70 years after his death, he remains a polarizing figure.

“Nikola Tesla had left us a very detailed description of the design of his Magnifying Transmitter System and the physical principles of its operation. We are a group of modern-day physicists, trained in many areas related to the operation of his Worldwide Energy System. We’ve conducted a thorough scientific expertise of his works and came to the conclusion that Tesla was on the right track.”
The principle behind the current design is that we already have an unlimited source for all the energy we could need – the sun. A 100,000 square kilometer solar array in a nice, sunny desert somewhere could provide for all our global power needs.
The problem lies in distributing that power, as current systems leak so much energy. Tesla’s proposed network of towers were designed to make use of the Earth’s own inherent conductivity, transmitting energy through the ground and the ionosphere with very little wastage. A detailed description of how a tower works can be found here.
While Tesla’s original tower on Long Island weighed in at 60 tons, the prototype the Plekhanovs plan to build will only weigh two tons due to advances in materials. Its Tesla coil will be about 20 meters long.
