Lost tesla manuscript?

[lighty]

Oh, come on people. A guy from Russia whose friend found manuscript in NY, then it was translated into Russian only to be translated back to English but this time by software translator? And everything without a shred of evidence or perhaps a scan of the original- even if that one is fake. C'mon...

[boguslaw]

Tesla was Serbian, maybe he wrote that manuscript in his own language ?

[Sephiroth]

No offense intended, but convincing yourself that it is a fake based on the available evidence is as foolish as convincing yourself it is genuine. It's an interesting read, but yes, without at least a scanned copy of the original document I'm sitting on the fence

Nah, I'm not convincing myself about anything. It's just that there is so much rubbish about Tesla out there that I can hardly believe anything anymore. As I said over and over again- extraordinary claims require extraordinary proofs.

From what i have I think is for Real,
Thanks for posting this Ben

Another good reason to have experts look at the notebook is that often washed-off ink lettering will leave chemical traces; so the text on the missing pages might be at least partially recoverable.

Sorry Aromaz, but personally, i'm not getting within 20 feet of this guy at least until he gets some solid proofs

Since i can't be the first person to have thought of that, i am sure the issue has come up; and he is either considering doing it or dodging the question. With some luck, and considering the historical value, i suspect he could talk a University into doing at least some of the tests; they are common Criminology techniques.

Indeed this is just too great of big value to just ignore. This can influence a lot of people in many areas.

As a side note. I just noticed this, why is the guy talking about translation. Did Tesla write this in Hungarian or something?

Sent email

I just sent this to the email at the bottom of the tesla manuscript web page.

I discovered your web page in a footnote of a magazine article, and shared the link with the community at energeticforum.com here

Thanking you in advance for your reply,

I am not a Tesla expert like many here; basically my reading has been limited to what is available on the 'web and free libraries (someday i would love to visit the Museum in Serbia). I don't recall any other reference to "vortex generator" in his work that i have seen (although i think he mentions vortex in a physical sense regarding his pump and turbine)... Has anyone else ever seen a reference to "Vortex Generator" before by Tesla himself (...and not banking on his name as the below links appear to do)?

This You-Tube claims something in the title but it has nothing actually linking Tesla to "Vortex"
YouTube - The Holy Grail Vortex - Nikola Tesla . Part 7 .

This book about Atlantis apparently has something linking them (from the cover anyway, showing Wardenclyffe), Has anyone here read it?

Atlantis & the Power System of the Gods:
Mercury Vortex Generators & the Power System of Atlantis
by David Hatcher Childress, Bill Clendenon

Also apparently with no direct link with Tesla & Vortex but interesting photos. But i gotta minor bone to pick with the authors.
See the photos down the page with this caption under them:

"On the left: 'Beam me up, Scotty' to far away galaxies... The argon laser beam is modulated by two mirror galvanometers. The center photo shows the dramatic effects by making a smoke tunnel with a circular beam. On the right is a pattern from the beam through a diffraction grating showing the multiple spectral lines."

Well if you look at the photo on the right it is nothing more than an X-Y plot on a 'scope of two AC signals slightly out of phase or of slightly different F's

But its a great site for eye-candy nonetheless so perhaps we can forgive them

So anyway: does anyone have any direct references from Tesla to a "Vortex Generator"? So far i have come up empty.

Fake

I have read allot of tesla's work and at best he is very difficult to read. He has a style of being long winded like a showman. The lost manuscript is not in the voice of Tesla

Wardenclyffe not operational in 1908

Hi guys,

I'm with Lighty on this one. The Wardenclyffe broadcasting facility was, in fact, never completed. Full power testing never happened because the outer skin of the dome was never fully in place. Without the "elevated capacitance", the system could not function. Funding for the project had all but dried up by 1905 and most employees were let go in 1906. In 1908, the property was in FORECLOSURE.

There were no tests of the broadcast capabilities of the system happening in 1908. With these facts of history well established, the probability of Tesla using this facility to produce the Tunguska Explosion vanishes.

A reasonably authoritative history of the Wardenclyffe facility can be found here: Wardenclyffe Tower - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

How about his other laboratory?
The one were he tested and demonstrated his "magnifying transmitter"?
