"I
am now planning aerial machines devoid of sustaining planes,
ailerons, propellers, and other external attachments, which will be capable
of immense speeds" - Tesla's autobiography
"To a Westinghouse manager, Tesla wrote 'You should not be at all
surprised, if some day you see me fly from New York to Colorado Springs in
a contrivance which will resemble a gas stove and weigh as much. ...
and could, if necessary enter and depart through a window.'" (7-7-1912)

Tesla intended the world to have a free, wireless, source of power "My
power generator will be of the simplest kind -- just a big mass of steel,
copper and aluminum comprising a stationary and rotating part, peculiarly
assembled."
According to museum officials at The Nikola Tesla museum in Belgrade,
"he left sketches of interplanetary ships. This information, however,
has not been made available to western scholars." pg. 203
