The Father of Modern Technology Returns to Chicago (original) (raw)

Museums Thu Aug 18 2011

By Emma R. Dutton

A free exhibit, "The Genius Spark of Nikola Tesla," will be at Chicago's Navy Pier Aug. 6-28, co-sponsored by the Chicago Council on Science and Technology and the Belgrade Committee of Chicago Sister Cities International. Nikola Tesla invented alternating current electricity, which lit the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893 and which still flows through power outlets today.
