* 1893: Tesla publicly demonstrates wireless power and proposes the wireless transmission of signals before a meeting of the National Electric Light Association in St. Louis.

On a BBC Horizon documentary, The Mysterious Mr. Tesla, doctor Andrew Michrowski ( the Planetary Association for Clean Energy ) speculated that the Woodpecker could in fact be a Soviet mind-control transmitter, imposing on people's ability to think rationally and stay calm ( original air date 20 December 1982 ).

In 1895, Nikola Tesla was able to detect signals from the transmissions of his New York lab at West Point ( a distance of 80. 4 km / 49. 95 miles ).

Through such people as Nikola Tesla, Galileo Ferraris, Oliver Heaviside, Thomas Edison, Ottó Bláthy, Ányos Jedlik, Sir Charles Parsons, Joseph Swan, George Westinghouse, Ernst Werner von Siemens, Alexander Graham Bell and Lord Kelvin, electricity was turned from a scientific curiosity into an essential tool for modern life, becoming a driving force for the Second Industrial Revolution.

In 1899 while investigating atmospheric electricity using a Tesla coil receiver in his Knob Hill lab, Tesla observed repetitive signals, substantially different from the signals noted from storms and Earth noise, that he interpreted as being of extraterrestrial origin.

Tesla thought the signals were coming from Mars.

Analysis of Tesla's research has ranged from suggestions that Tesla detected nothing, he simply was misunderstanding the new technology he was working with, to claims that Tesla may have been observing naturally occurring Jovian plasma torus signals.

The day after Edison died, the New York Times contained extensive coverage of Edison's life, with the only negative opinion coming from Tesla who was quoted as saying:

Today, many amateur experiments in the field have been conducted using Tesla turbines which use compressed air, steam as its power source ( the steam being generated with heat from fuel combustion, from a vehicle's turbocharger or from solar radiation ).

A Tesla turbine differs from a conventional turbine only in the mechanism used for transferring energy to the shaft.

This was not the case for all researchers in the field of the wireless arts, though .< ref > Prior to 1897 Tesla was transmitting signals to a distance of 30 miles from New York City to West Point.

Nikola Tesla discovered in 1901 that when a metal was illuminated by high-frequency light ( e. g., ultraviolet light ), electrons were ejected from the metal at high energy.

Nikola Tesla claimed as early as 1899 to have used a high frequency current to light gas-filled lamps from over away without using wires.

One well-known example of a dispute over who can be called a Co-Founder can be observed in the story of a lawsuit against Elon Musk by a Co-Founder of Tesla Motors in which it was alleged that he did not have the right to consider himself a Co-Founder merely because he provided a large amount of capital and was instrumental in saving the company from bankruptcy.

Several attempts were made to detect radio emission from the Sun by experimenters such as Nikola Tesla and Oliver Lodge, but those attempts were unable to detect any emission due to technical limitations of their instruments.
