PBS Chat: Inside Einstein’s Mind/ Tesla
Presenter: Reagan Doyal



Join science teachers for a live streaming event from 10-12. Join on your computer and watch live from home while interacting with teachers through a live chat. Retrace the thought experiments that inspired Einstein's theory on the nature of reality and explore Nikola Tesla's technology revolutionized the electrical age of the 20th century. Although eclipsed in fame by Edison and Marconi, it was Tesla's vision that paved the way for today's wireless world. His fertile but undisciplined imagination was the source of his genius but also his downfall, as the image of Tesla as a “mad scientist” came to overshadow his reputation as a brilliant innovator.
