Teslascope

A Teslascope is a radio transceiver that was alleged to have been invented by Nikola Tesla for the purpose of communicating with life on other planets.Carlson, W.

Claims

The claim that Tesla created a device called a “Teslascope” grew out of Arthur H. Matthews 1970 book, "The wall of light; Nikola Tesla and the Venusians space ship, the X-12" (OCLC 2094500). [cite web|title =The wall of light; Nikola Tesla and the Venusian’s space ship, the X-12.| publisher =WorldCat| url=http://worldcat.org/oclc/2094500&referer=brief_results| accessdate =2007-04-17] Matthews, who had apprenticed under Tesla at the turn of 20th the century and worked for him until Tesla's death in 1943, wrote that Tesla had designed it in order to communicate with extraterrestrials. Matthews made many other claims, such as Tesla was born on Venus (supposedly told to him by Venusians who visited Matthews in Canada). Matthews also claimed that he built a model of a Teslascope in 1947 after Tesla’s death and operated it successfully, although it is hard to verify such a claim since Matthews left unclear documentation of his accomplishments.

Talking with planets

Tesla had mentioned many times during his career that he thought his inventions such as his Tesla coil, used in the role of a "resonant receiver", could communicate with other planets. In 1896, Tesla told interviewers: [cite book| last =Seifer| first =Marc J.| title =Wizard : the life and times of Nikola Tesla : biography of a genius| publisher =Carol Pub.| date =1996| location =Secaucus, New Jersey| pages =157|chapter=Martian Fever (1895-1896)| isbn = 978-1-55-972329-9 | oclc = 33865102]

In 1899 when Nikola Tesla was investigating atmospheric electricity using his receivers in his Colorado Springs lab, Tesla observed repetitive signals of what he believed were Extraterrestrial radio signals that were substantially different from the signals he had noted from storms and Earth noise. Specifically, he later recalled that the signals appeared in groups of one, two, three, and four clicks together. Tesla seemed to think the signals were coming from Mars. Research has suggested that Tesla may have had a misunderstanding of the new technology he was working with, [cite book| last =Spencer| first =John| title =The UFO Encyclopedia| publisher =Avon Books| date =1991| location =New York| isbn = 978-0-38-076887-5| oclc = 26211869 ] or that the signals Tesla observed may have simply been an observation of a natural radio source such as the Jovian plasma torus signals.
