I have built, demonstrated and used it. While based in fiction, research into energy-based weapons inspired by past speculation has contributed to real-life weapons in use by modern militaries sometimes called a sort of "death ray", such as the United States Navy and its Laser Weapon System (LaWS) deployed in mid-2014. Tesla was born in 1856 in his family home in Croatia during a particularly strong lightning storm.
