Tesla in Colorado Springs
A photograph taken in Colorado Springs during
an experiment on December 31, 1899. Tesla reads a book in the background, while
several million volts lightnings cascade around the laboratory. The roar that
accompanied such discharges could be heard ten miles away. The photograph was
obtained using trick photography. Experiment was repeated several times to
capture the lightnings and then the inventor would sit on a chair to complete
the picture.
