EM radiation from the wireless source drops off according to the inverse square law.
Yeah, those newfangled "lasers" will never work.
You stole my thunder.
Dropping off as r^2 doesn't matter so much if the light waves are manipulated to act more like particles.
And to add more thunder... scientists ARE WORKING ON BEAMING ENERGY like Telsa described. (It's common knowledge) so yes it could have worked... Would he have succeeded?.... Cannot say if he could have succeeded, but he had the brains and drive so it would have been difficult but definitely possible for Tesla to do this!
