Abstract
Tesla's Wardenclyffe Tower technology might have a direct application to electric spacecraft. At the turn of the century, Tesla received funding from J. Pierpont Morgan to build the tower which, Tesla initially stated, would merely transmit radio signals across the Atlantic. However, when Marconi preempted him in that accomplishment, Tesla confided that in Wardenclyffe he had also designed a worldwide, wireless transmitter of energy for boats, airplanes, and other machines. This article is the first in a series written to provide information about the tower, to speculate on its operation, and to encourage others to provide additional information.
