BEST OF (#54 of 508) TESLA AND THE ARK

Nikola Tesla was an American electrical engineer and inventor who made significant bounds in the areas of electrical applications, motors, remote controlled boats, dynamos, and the invention of alternating current motors which could power cars. To honor Tesla's contribution, Elon Musk, the head of the electric car company Tesla, named his company after the great inventor. One of the least known of Tesla's many projects was the particle accelerator, which some people have named the "Death Ray". In this story we discuss Tesla as well as the story of the legendary Ark of the Covenant, which the Jews used to terrify their enemies. It was a wooden box lined with gold which, according to biblical accounts, emitted a deadly energy source that would kill anyone who touched it. At the end of our story Tesla gives his opinion as to how the Ark got its power. Catch ALL our author interviews in one place here at 1001 History's Best Storytellers!
