NTT and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Beamed 152 Watts Over 1 km — A Real-World Nod to Tesla’s Wireless Power Dream

· 4 min read

Nikola Tesla spent his life chasing the idea that energy could be sent through the air — and in 2026, engineers are finally publishing hard, testable numbers that echo that ambition. In a January 2026 write-up, NTT described a wireless power demonstration with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries at Nanki-Shirahama Airport in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan: the team delivered 152 watts of usable electricity to a receiver 1 kilometer away. The system reportedly achieved about 15% efficiency (a “world record level” for this kind of real-atmosphere test) and ran continuously for 30 minutes. It’s not a global grid — but it’s a measurable, modern step toward safely sending useful power without cables.

A New 2026 Long-Form Tesla Biography Maps His Whole Arc — From AC Power to Wardenclyffe

· 4 min read

On March 24, 2026, YouTube channel The Long Shadow released the nearly two-hour documentary “Nikola Tesla - The Genius Who Lit the World and Died With Nothing.” The film walks through Tesla’s most documented milestones — his alliance with George Westinghouse, the War of Currents, the 1893 World’s Fair demonstrations, and the rise-and-fall of Wardenclyffe Tower — in a single, chronological sweep. It’s a solid refresher because it stays anchored to the recognizable historical record: alternating current, the Tesla coil, Colorado Springs experiments, and the lonely final years that followed Tesla’s grandest ambitions. If you want one “start here” watch before diving into patents and primary sources, this is a strong new entry for 2026.
