No High-Speed Limit, Says Tesla * (Following is a summary of the referenced article.) Dr. Nikola Tesla asserted in an interview with Hugo Gernsback that speeds greater than that of light, which are considered impossible by the Einstein theory of relativity, have been produced. Stating that the Einstein theory is erroneous in many respects, Dr. Tesla stated as early as 1900, in his patent 787,412, that the current of his radiopower transmitter passed over the surface of the earth with a speed of 292,830 miles a second. According to the Einstein theory, the highest possible speed is 186,300 miles a second. Tesla indicated knowledge of speeds several times greater than light, and had apparatus designed to project so-called electrons with a speed equal to twice that of light. this is also in the court case over the wardenclyfe tower. Tesla testifies that his energy is not like marconi's and is electro-magnetic. What I want to know is why have we not heard about this and why is so called academia teaching everyone about a freaking speed limit of 186000. Should suits be processed for promugating false information to the public? I think yes! (this stuff IS proven btw
Man, are you really that ignorant? I just put up a thread in the science section a couple days ago where Einstien was once again proven correct by studies of data collected that show light being slowed down by gravity. Exactly as predicted by Einstein. WTF does Tesla have to do with anything? He didn't know about neutrinos and electrons cannot move faster than the speed of light and there isn't a single modern physicist who would ever claim such a presposterous thing. If anyone did try to claim electrons can move faster than light, they would be laughed out of the community. !
Relativity is one of the most tested theories that we have. There are millions of tests validating it every day, it is called GPS.
Yeah right, show me some link to even a glimpse of hope that it is right. I am a 58 year old scientist and I have never heard such rot as "this stuff is proven btw"
The only reason Einstein was not laughed out and has been taken seriously is because his friends control the media. besides having a bad hair cut (like me) he ain't nothing, but a guy who worked in a patent office where people go to put claims to things they invent. he was a joke.
Besides Tesla, show somebody who has replicated this experiment. Science cannot prove anything, BTW, it can just disprove things.
