That has nothing at all to do with his zany idea. The thing you're talking about is sending the energy to Earth in the form of microwaves that will be received by special equipment.
so if i put a rock band on the moon and used basic radio transmitters to send the concert to earth; is energy transmitted?
i.e... can one blip of information convey?
then radio is broadcasting 'energy'
and if you are at all on your game; then realize that when a radio station here on earth is transmitting, they know when you are listening. Why? because nothing transmits unless a reciever is exchanging and at the station they know how much power is 'transmitting' based on what is being captured.
That one 'fact' is something that ruins the morons of the complacent
Tesla's idea was to "charge the atmosphere" and drain it off for use wherever it was wanted. HUGE difference there!!!
and here is that proof once again, you be a moron.
Tesla, tower was not for sending electricity but 'creating' it from the coils crossing the lines of the earth magnetic field; that is where the ideal observance to A/C came from. That switch alternated at the rate of the flux line occilations and why a potential was created by the 'alternating' poles.
that is the basis of his 'free energy'................. Tesla proved we need no imput power to 'charge a coil'.............. this is what 'free energy' was about.
and of course Edison would not assist here is because then he loses his centralized control of the utility.
You live on what you 'read-only' from newspaper articles.
He also had no business sense, either.
He cared more for the sciences than money.
Had his hare-brained scheme to deliver electrical power wirelessly around the world ever worked (which, of course it couldn't) there would have been absolutely no way to meter/charge for it. And what fool with a power-generating plant would supply electricity that he couldn't even charge for?!?!
again a complacent belief of a moron.......
i.e..... tesla shared the fluorescent bulb while edison (GE) found the incondescent light was cheaper to make and where the profit is but here we are 100 years later and tesla reappears in his brilliance of economy and science in the over all good of mankind; the fluorescent bulb is back on top.
