God said, "Let Tesla be", and all was light.

Galileo!!!
All of those truths that he discovered and was ridiculed for...he was even thrown out of his church for his radical, forward-thinking.
he invented the telescope, barometer, envisioned human flight long before the Wright Brothers (he even drew a prototype for a helicopter). Wow....
