+joc Posted March 28 #1 Share Posted March 28 (edited) Over the weekend, we made a trip down to Corpus Christi, TX. I was stunned to see this incredible thing in the middle of nowhere. I even remarked to my wife, What is that? Look's like something Nikola Tesla would have built. So, I pulled over and took a picture. Later on I just googled Tesla Tower Milford, TX and this post is the result of that. This is the picture I took from the side of the freeway: The Truth About the Mysterious Tesla Tower in Texas Some time back, a mysterious tower resembling Nikola Tesla’s Wardenclyffe Tower appeared outside Milford, Texas, a rural community in north central Texas. The construction of the Tesla tower was noticed by citizens of Milford in 2017, but only more recently has it become a fixture of the landscape. Anyone heading down I-35 can get a clear view of it from the highway; it stands alone in a field, unusual and looming. Viziv Technologies, the party responsible for the construction of the tower in Milford, has similar goals. If their experiments with the tower are successful, this would mean they can wirelessly transmit energy between any two points on the globe. Their aim is to utilize the Zenneck surface wave, an electromagnetic wave that uses the surface of the earth as a guide, enabling it to carry signals and electricity over long distances. (Electromagnetic waves are results of vibrations between electric fields and magnetic fields.) Link Edited March 28 by joc 7 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+and-then Posted March 28 #2 Share Posted March 28 Whatever else it might be intended for, it looks like a great lightning rod Tesla's concept of wireless transmission of electricity would have revolutionized our world. I hope they find a way to accomplish it someday. 3 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyver Posted March 28 #3 Share Posted March 28 So, if this is an experiment, then there should be another tower somewhere else some good distance away that is transmitting signals to this one near Milford, right? It would be interesting to know if it works! And it would also be nice to know if these Zenneck Surface Waves have any potential for causing harm to humans…like…IDK, scrambling our brains and turning our minds into jello? 1 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that if a human accidentally got in between a transmission from one tower to another it could be fatal. I hope I am wrong. 4 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I am wrong. As far as I can tell, they are low frequency waves. I was just stunned to see this thing. Interesting, plus they have some very large backers. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't even clicked on the Viziz website until now. No matter what you click on, it's the same site, no information at all unless you want to contact them. 2 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I am wrong. Electricity always "chooses" the path of least resistance. In this case it would be moist dirt, not the dry dirt on the surface. But in theory, if the surface was soaked, and you had no shoes on, sure. But it would only be a tiny fraction of the transmission. You wouldn't even notice it. 4 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am old enough to remember the time when microwave ovens were considered dangerous, and the fact is that the early ones were to my grandmother who had a pacemaker. Anyway, yes…some electromagnetic waves are very harmful to humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psyche101 Posted March 29 #10 Share Posted March 29 Bizarre that wireless energy was listed as a reason for construction. It was a Tesla pipe dream. Never happened because it can't and wont. Terrestrial resonance didn't work out as planned. The original purpose of a wireless communication system was viable, but Wardenclyffe is well superseded by today's tech. Interesting as a monument though. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often am confused that others don't feel it. Edited March 29 by Desertrat56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm an electrical engineer for large scale projects. I have to calculate gauss leakage and allow electromagnetic shielding to contain leakage to a specific room. Segregation is paramount for trouble free operation, specifically regarding communication and data systems. 10 hours ago, Desertrat56 said: Yes, I have worked with electricity and electronics for decades. What is your point? My point is electricity flows. It's not present as a medium. Being able to sense it is quite a claim, and it's would be very localised and specific, like how a volt stick works. Only in immediate vicinity and as a flow as opposed to a medium, which I how I understand your description. No need to be snarky I actually had a genuine interest in your claim from a professional point of view. Some people claim lights flicker when they walk past, I'm dubious but would like to witness what it is that gives people the impression that they actually affect a natural force which by nature seeks the path of least resistance. If you sense electricity would your claim be referring to not so much current flow but the electromagnetism associated via induction as far as I can tell, but I can't for the life of me work out how skin senses magnetism. They don't react to each other. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes one wonder if the government has created some of his contraptions. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we drive up it would go off and stay off until we when into the house. It did that for awhile years back but it stopped doing that until here recently. Being an old timer I don't go out much in the evenings but have noticed it do it again here recently. Had a neighbor talking to me this afternoon, she was the one living with me during that time saying that she be on her walks and approaching the house that they had been going off on her too and when she gets down the street it turns back on. Now don't get me wrong, I am not saying it is me per se is causing it, but it is an oddity that i would like t explained to me. My hypothesis is that something is triggering the light sensor on the street lamp to turn off. The lamp is suppose to stay on so or some reason the light is losing power. So it would have to be in the light sensor switch, not sure if they become faulty over time. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it could simply be a build up on the lens of the sensor affecting light input. Could be a damaged cable too, so when you leave the pressure of the car makes it breaks the electric supply. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
029b10 Posted March 31 #20 Share Posted March 31 (edited) The reason there is nothing much on the web about the 2019 start-up Viziz is because they went bankrupt. I guess 5G did them in. Edited March 31 by 029b10 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nervous system has a sheathing that insulates it, and infections, injuries etc can cause peripheral neuropathy I learned that at the military academy while studying the Dim Mak death touch. There is a certain area of the Vagus nerve where application of pressure can cause the two segments of the nerve to touch resulting in instant death, like shorting out a circuit, the power goes off and the light goes out. But that is all I can say about it for obvious reasons. Edited March 31 by 029b10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Living rent free in your head isn't he I get it when memes are related, but that isn't. It's just dumb. Doesn't say a lot about you to be honest. You suck at humour. Aliens and child sniffing. I don't even want to know what's in your head when that's what you mostly think about. You should talk to someone. That's messed up dude. Anyway, on topic, Tesla smoke heaps of pot and came up with ideas like Martians and Venusians. Way wrong. Wireless power failed too. Are you even aware he was not an inventor or scientist? He was an engineer. His talent wasn't creating so much, but vastly improving existing designs. I don't think the powers that be have too much concern over Martians and Venusians.
