What did thomas Edison do inside the barn?

Why did Thomas Edison do that?

Because Thomas Edison was one of the biggest dicks in history. I mean the dude electricuted cats and dogs and even an elephant to try and prove that Nikola Tesla's AC was worse than his DC (Which was wrong AC was sooo much better.) And Edison turned down Tesla's idea of radar (which was invented 17 years after teslas idea of it) when proposed to the US Navy because Edison hated Tesla. Man Edison sucked, I mean what a jerk right?


When did Nikola Tesla meet Thomas Edison?

Nikola Tesla was referred to Edison by a mutual friend. Tesla emigrated to New York and gave a recommendation letter to Edison who hired him to help develop DC power systems. Their partnership did not last long. Instead of working on DC power as Edison challenged him, Tesla chose to improve Faraday's AC power. Edison would not listen to Tesla's arguments for AC power, and Tesla quit. George Westinghouse then bought Tesla's AC patents, and directly challenged Edison in the current wars which Westinhouse eventually won. Ironically, many devices used today are DC (computers, cell phones, LED lights, etc.) as Edison predicted, and converters have to be used to step down from AC back to DC.


What did Thomas Edison say about solar energy?

In a conversation with Henry Ford (the car maker) in 1931 Edison said: "We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using Nature's inexhaustible sources of energy - sun, wind and tide. ... I'd put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don't have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that."
