Einstein was once asked how he felt about being the smartest person in the world.
Einstein replied, "You should ask Nikola Tesla that question."

While there is considerable doubt as to whether Einstein actually said this or whether he said it to discredit Tesla, there is no doubt that Nikola Tesla is one of the brightest stars in the world of science.

Tesla There is no end to the speculation about Mr. Tesla. Today's article will discuss some rumors about Tesla that are not true at all.

1. 'Tesla's memory was so sharp that he did not need to write anything down.'

There is no doubt that Mr. Tesla had a sharp brain, but the claim that Tesla did not take notes is false. Many of Tesla's written notes are still preserved by scientists.

2. 'Tesla was penniless.'

Tesla had a bad habit of wasting money. Tesla borrowed money but continued to live a lavish lifestyle. Tesla has always been indifferent to money. So it is assumed that although he would have received a lot of money for his patents, he would have squandered that money as well.

3. 'All quotes from Tesla are acceptable.'

Tesla often made headlines for his irrational beliefs.
For example, when Marconi discovered radio signals, Tesla claimed that he had already been able to communicate with aliens living on Mars with his device, but Tesla could not provide any proper proof.

4. 'Tesla is the real inventor of radio.'

Tesla claimed that Marconi invented the radio using his 17 patents. However, no evidence of research related to Tesla's radio invention has been found.

5. 'Tesla gave the first accurate information about electric waves.'

In fact, Tesla had no clear idea about electric waves. He believed that electric waves travel faster than light.

6. 'Tesla's Wardensliffe Tower Project Fails Over Money.'

Although Tesla did not have the necessary funds to complete this project, this information is correct, but the researchers who studied Wardensliffe Tower did not see any possibility of this project being successful.

7. Edison and Tesla were to be jointly awarded the Nobel Prize.

If many media of the time spread this news but Tesla and Edison himself rejected such claim. Even the Nobel Committee was surprised to hear such rumours.

8. 'Tesla was not popular during his lifetime.'

Tesla was quite popular during his lifetime. He never even had to ask anyone to fund his research.

9. 'Tesla Invents Earthquake Generator'

Although Tesla claimed that his device could split the earth in two like an apple, scientists found no evidence of this. Tesla himself claimed that his machine had work left to do.

10. 'Tesla starves to death.'

Tesla died of heart complications. But his habit of overworking, insomnia gradually pushed him towards death.

Tesla's invention made the world better. Many have found success following the path shown by Tesla. Yet the tendency to show respect for Tesla is not as visible. Maybe future generations will know Tesla by name and they will know about this mad scientist

"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration."
