On May 17, 1899, a brief but electrifying chapter in Colorado history began when Nikola Tesla arrived in Colorado Springs, in the shadow of Pikes Peak, with the goal of taming nature’s wild energy. Although the visionary scientist’s time in the city was short, less than one year, the insights visited upon him during grand electrical experiments in his barn-like laboratory on Knob Hill profoundly affected the course of his life and ideas. Although there has been speculation, the exact location of Tesla’s lab has remained a puzzle. With help from Pikes Peak Library District Special Collections librarian Dennis Daily, history investigator Kevin Hudgens searches for the location this mysterious lab. DVD-R Widescreen format, NTSC, color, approx. 43 min. + Bonus Content, not rated. ISBN 978-1-56735-292-4 $8.95 DVD. Buy DVD from Kunaki.com
