(a) A Forgotten Genius

Hi guys!I've always asked myself "what would happen if i had practiced my studying skills more years before?", because when i was child, i was very intelligent (according to people who knew me at this age) but my parents stop to stimulate my brain because they say that i was going to get bored in the school. Could i've been as intelligent as an important scientist? I don't know, but since i discovery the name of Nikola Tesla, i want his brain, because he was a really brilliant mind.

Who was Nikola Tesla? He was an american physicist, born in Smiljan, now in Croatia (July 10th of 1856), and died in New York, US (January 7th of 1943). After work in many electrical industries on Paris and Budapest, he started to work for Thomas Edison, who was a supporter of electrical current. 

Then, after a discussion with him, Tesla start to work with George Westinghouse in the alternating current delivery, and other things about the electricity in general, making artifacts that helped the world to use the alternating current to it benefit. 

This artifacts were his most important inventions. But, his most famous invention was the "Tesla Coil", that consist in a coil that can shoot rays, generate electron winds and send current to the human body, from a capacitor.

Another of his inventions, "increase transmitter"



I admire him a lot because, although people considered him a stupid crazy, he kept doing all this inventions for all. Although people steal some of his inventions, he kept doing his investigations, and this is love for the science.
