The Internet’s Got Tesla Fever: New Kickstarter Campaign Aims To Tell Tesla’s Life Story

The Oatmeal has made headlines this summer with his Indiegogo campaign to buy back the old Wardenclyffe laboratory of Serbian-American inventor Nikola Tesla, best known for his contributions to our modern day electrical system, and turn it into a museum. The campaign surpassed its goal of $850,000 in a matter of days and now stands at over $1.1 million with a month to go. And it looks like The Oatmeal and friends aren’t the only ones with Tesla Fever—a new Kickstarter campaign aims to raise $35,000 by September 9 to tell the life story of Nikola Tesla.
