1998 - Phenomenon: The Lost Archives - S1.E9 - Lost Lightning: The Missing Secrets of Nicola Tesla

A documentary series that takes an in-depth look at the topics found in recently de-classified government documents. It explores well-known issues with new information that has been sequestered from the public for over sixty years.

Nikola Tesla claimed he could provide everyone with free, unlimited energy. Could his claim have been true?
