During one of his experiments with radio (he invented it) he started picking up mysterious signals. As no one else had the capability to generate such signals he concluded, correctly, that they came from space. Only he thought they came from aliens and martians while he had infact become the first radioastronomer. Sadly, without knowing it, he was picking up natural radiosignals from stars.

Towards the end of his life, in order to keep his name in the news, Nikola Tesla began to announce all sorts of amazing and bizarre things. The guys on Mythbusters recently did a segment on one of his more outlandish claims. But here's a website that has more details:

I don't believe that any of Tesla's equipment was anywhere near sensitive or precise enough to reliably receive a signal from Mars. And there's plenty of background noise from space that could have fooled him.

I feel certain that if Tesla did receive any signals from space that they were most likely from Solar Flares.
