The Oatmeal has managed to successful crowd source enough cash to purchase the land around the lab, and the lab itself. The group aimed to raise $850,000 but managed to raise a total of over $1.4 million! The cash was paid to a group called The Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe, who aim to develop the land around the site.
It is yet to be seen how the land will be developed, but it can be hoped that it will become a Mecca for scientists seeking inspiration from their notable forefather. I hope that it will be turned into a science park with the lab and a museum at its centre!
What do you want the new owners to do with the property? Vote in the poll below!
