What is Nikola Tesla family background?

Nikola Tesla was born on July 10th, 1856 in Smiljan, Croatia. He was born to Milutan, a Serbian Orthodox priest, and Djuka, a craftswoman. Both of his parents were very intelligent, just like Tesla. Tesla got his engineering mind from his mother, who could memorize entire poems and could create many different tools, even though she was illiterate. Tesla had four other siblings, his brother Dane and his sisters, Milka, Angelica, and Marica. Dane was the most popular child and was called the family genius. However, Dane died in a horse-riding accident when Tesla was only five years old.


What were some of Nikola Tesla's Major events?

Tesla invented quite a number of electrical devices, and others were often credited for his inventions. This is one reason why Tesla refused to accept a Nobel prize proposed for award jointly to him and Thomas Edison... Edison had exploited him so much that Tesla refused to see Edison get credit for his work. Tesla was a scientist and inventor, not a businessman by nature. Thus he accumulated tremendous debts from business losses, and died a relative pauper. It was only an annual $7200 grant from the government of his native Yugoslavia that kept him from being destitute during his final years when he lived in the United States. Meanwhile, others profited enormously from the inventions he actually produced. Guglielmo Marconi stole Tesla's drawings from the US Patent Office, and it was only after an extended lawsuit that Marconi was exposed as a fraud, and Tesla was credited with his own invention. In 1888 Tesla designed the first practical system of generating and transmitting alternating current for electric power. The American rights to this epoch-making invention were bought by the American inventor George Westinghouse, who demonstrated (1893) the system for the first time at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. Two years later Tesla's alternating-current motors were installed at the Niagara Falls power project.


Who is the great scientisst?

==Thomas Alva Edison== Einstein, Tesla, Von Braun and many other scientists made great contributions to the world, but considering the impact that such things as light bulbs, motion pictures, sound recording devices and the huge number of other inventions of Edison have had on the world, "The Wizard of Menlo Park" is, arguably, the greatest scientist of the 20th century. ==Nikola Tesla== Nikola Tesla is the greatest scientist of the millenium. His contributions made a greater impact than any other scientist to technology and our way of life today. While Edison is credited with discovering and advancing electricty, few realize that while he advanced direct current, which is the type of power batteries use, it was Tesla who advanced alternating current, the type all our electric conveniences use. That's only the beginning of Tesla's contributions!
