The Mysterious VIZIV Tower in Texas

in #science6 years ago (edited)

Has a company built Tesla's Tower in Texas?

In 1901, Nikola Tesla began construction on a tower in Wardenclyffe, an area of Long Island, New York. Tesla had promised that the tower would be used to transmit wireless messages, including images, across the planet using the Earth as a conductor of the signals.

The tower itself was 187 feet tall and supposedly there were wires buried deep below the tower to connect it to the earth. Tesla believed, that beyond sending messages, the tower could also provide wireless electricity. If the tower worked, it would be one of many towers positioned around the world providing wireless electricity and communication for free. And the "free" part is what killed Tesla's funding for the project and eventual destruction of the tower to sell off the metal in order to pay debts.

Fast forward to 2018 and we find that the VIZIV Technologies has recreated Tesla's tower in the small town of Milford, Texas.

Milford testing facility, tower seeks to send signals worldwide

With the same original goal of Tesla, VIZIV plans to use the tower to send wireless signals worldwide. However, their website seems to hint that they also plan on doing what Tesla was going to really do, which was send energy around the world.

For over 100 years, scientists and industry leaders have searched for a way to safely transport energy over long distances without the use of conventional wires or cabling...
That search is over.

And, they also point out to the basics of how they will do it.

Viziv surface wave systems utilize a long theorized but never successfully demonstrated terrestrial, electromagnetic phenomena known as the Zenneck surface wave.

Of course, when one company begins to start selling something, it probably means that another company was researching it for some time. And it seems that Zenneck waves came back into the spot light back in 2013 with a Popular Mechanics article.

Of course, there are rumors that, when Tesla died, the FBI and the CIA raided his room and took all of his research papers to use his ideas for military use. The FBI does have a FOIA Vault on Nikola Tesla and the CIA has a page on the Nikola Tesla Industrial Enterprise. But, most believe that there are a lot of files missing.

The only person who has actually seen those other documents and told anyone about it, was John G. Trump, uncle of Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America. That, is a whole other conspiracy theory.

What does help with the government theft of Tesla's ideas is that there not one, but two former United States Air Force generals at VIZIV.

Michael W. Miller
BRIGADIER GENERAL (RETIRED), USAF
CEO AND PRESIDENT

Richard T. Devereaux
MAJOR GENERAL (RETIRED), USAF
EXECUTIVE VP, GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS

General Miller also has a MBA from the University of North Dakota, which is where Minot Air Force Base is and a bunch of missiles that go boom.



As for as the name VIZIV, which is the same backwards and forwards, I break it down like this.
Z = is for Zenneck surface waves
V = Very Low Frequency (VLF), which is the hertz band of Zenneck waves
VI = Roman Numeral 4, which is the ITU Radio Band for VLF
VI = Roman Numeral 6
Z is created using 3 lines. VI and IV is created using 3 lines. 3 + 3 + 3 = 9
3,6,9 are Tesla's favorite numbers

If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe. ~ Nikola Tesla

So, yes, VIZIV has built Nikola Tesla's Tower. What will they use it for? Who knows, since Tesla never was able to finish the experiment.

Powering the Planet… Bringing Light to the World

But, it is never good to have someone claim to be the "light bringer".

Here is a great video to learn more.

Well, it does not look like a Tesla tower to me.

The problem here is that most people think of Tesla's tower as a really big Tesla Coil. And, although a Tesla coil was to be used in Tesla's tower, it was only the primary.

One of the main design considerations that is well known is that Tesla's tower was completely made of wood. No nails, no screws, NO METAL. The structure from VIZIV does not seem to be built from plastic.

The other design feature is that the top is not a great big ball, like many use as a terminus on a Tesla Coil to get nice sparks. The top is a coil. Tesla talks about the necessary electrical characteristics of the coil, but never describes the coil.

Tesla only planned to make two towers. One on the other side of the world to serve as a backup if the first one ever failed.

And, for anyone actually wanting to try this, Tesla made a working prototype with a single wood pole. You do not need a great big tower to make this work unless you want to power the whole world.

I would suggest that people do not work on this electrifying of earth.
It is a technological dead end. As in, the magnetic field is important for human survival and functioning. Changing that causes changes in humans. We would need to decide to do that.
Further, soon after we got one of these towers working we would learn how to access power from space. (not the black stuff up there, the space between your fingers) And so, the future will be free energy... after we will never use it for war.

So, you don't think they used non-conductive materials for the base?

Also, the top of the Wardenclyffe Tower was made of conductive material, just like this one.

It had a 55-ton steel (some report it was a better conducting material, such as copper) hemispherical structure at the top (referred to as a cupola). The structure was such as to allow each piece to be taken out and replaced as necessary.

The joints of non-conductive materials look very different.
So, to me it looks like metal structure. And i have a fairly good eye for such, but am not perfect.

The "cupola" was never constructed, so we don't know. All we have is speculations based on stuff ordered and patent plans.

Instead of a tower, Tesla worked on the possibility of using balloons to hold the top aloft. So... 55 tons supported by balloons? That doesn't add up. But, we will never know.

But, like i said, Tesla built a prototype on a single wooden pole.

There is one huge danger. Our current AC distribution system relies on the ground as a return path. The supermagnifying transformer will make the ground not be ground anymore. It would fry most of our electronics.

Well, I did point out at the end that they don't exactly have the best slogan. ;)
