One of Nikola Tesla’s greatest discoveries was the electric current. Electric currents are used in every technological advance used today like light bulbs, television, etc. during that point of time, it was very impactful. Nothing like it had been discovered yet. “Tesla …show more content…
Almost every electronic device has an influence by him. Radio control was a patent laid by Tesla. “The world's military establishments discovered many destructive terrors, but radio-controlled devices did not number among them in any significant way until late in the twentieth century, with refinements in rocketry and guided bombs. Radio control remained a novelty, an exciting field for experimentalists and specialists, until the launching of the Space Age and the orbiting of myriad commercial and military satellites, all under remote control.” (Weeks 4) He was the first to ever use radio wave technology, even if they were not funded. Also explains who uses his patent today.Drawing back from the first paragraph, he found electric currents in other uses.“Nikola Tesla’s invention of the electric motor has finally been popularized by a car brandishing his name. While the technical specifications are beyond the scope of this summary, suffice to say that Tesla’s invention of a motor with rotating magnetic fields could have freed mankind much sooner from the stranglehold of Big Oil.” (Weeks 7) Tesla had already planned the motor that is modern today over 97 years
