July 10 is the birthday of Nikola Tesla, who would have been 161 years old today.
It's a good time to celebrate the life of the Serbian-American engineer and physicist: Without Tesla, you might not be able to affordably power your home.
Tesla resolved more than 300 problems during his 86 years of life, and his inventions helped pave the way for alternating current (AC), electric motors, radios, fluorescent lights, lasers, and remote controls, among many other things.
