The Life of Nicola Tesla

Today in history, we celebrate the legacy of Nikola Tesla, one of the most brilliant and visionary inventors of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born on July 10, 1856, in Smiljan, then part of the Austrian Empire (modern-day Croatia), Tesla's groundbreaking work in electrical engineering and electromagnetism revolutionized the way we understand and use electricity. His contributions, including the development of alternating current (AC) power systems, laid the foundation for the modern electrical grid and countless technologies we rely on today. Tesla's inventive spirit, tireless work ethic, and unrelenting pursuit of innovation continue to inspire scientists, engineers, and dreamers around the world.
