14 DAY TRIAL // Just yesterday, billionaire Elon Musk, the CEO of electric car company Tesla Motors and rocket company SpaceX, announced plans to donate $1 million (€0.73 million) to the construction of a new Tesla museum in Long Island, New York.
The announcement was made on the same day Serbian-American inventor Nikola Tesla would have celebrated his 158 birthday, had it not been for one very close encounter with the Grim Reaper in January 1943.
According to Live Science, the museum is to be erected in the very same spot where Nikola Tesla's laboratory in New York used to sit. Its official name will be The Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe.
The facility will not only display some of the inventor's creators, but will also educate the public about how this Serbian-American scientist's work on electricity supply systems transformed the world as we know it.
Word has it the museum will also be equipped with a lab where people will be allowed to try and build prototypes of one invention or another themselves, and will also give folks the chance to attempt turning ideas into actual products.
Interestingly enough, it looks like Elon Musk plans to have this Telsa museum in New York accommodate for a supercharging station for Tesla Motors' electric cars in its proximity.
