Nikola Tesla's Birthday on July 10 - A Day Of Science Around The World

Written by Marina Bulatovic -
distinguished Serbian journalist

In Hotel New Yorker in Manhattan, where Tesla lived for the last 10 years of his life, we met Dr. Ljubo Vujovic, General Secretary, Tesla Memorial Society of New York. This society, as many other Tesla societies, was formed with the purpose of keeping the memory of Nikola Tesla alive. Dr. Ljubo Vujovic is one the leading Tesla activists in America and Europe. He devoted 40 years of his life to research and the promotion of Nikola Tesla. Despite the fact that promoting Nikola Tesla didn't come easy, he never gave up.

Dr. Ljubo Vujovic said:

"For many years now, we have been promoting Nikola Tesla Day (July 10), as a day of science, progress and peace among all nations and religious of the world. This initiative was started in 2002, together with our brother Tesla organization from Australia, Tesla Forum. We would like that Tesla's birthday on July 10 be proclaimed "Nikola Tesla Day of Science" around the world. We collected many documents, you can see them on our website - www.teslasociety.com. It is necessary that one government, accredited by the UN, send an official proposal to the United Nations for voting by the General Assembly of the United Nations. The previous Secretary General, Kofi Annan, instructed that this procedure be followed for the approval of "Nikola Tesla Day of Science" by the United Nations. We received great encouragement for these actions because recently Nelson Mandala had his birthday, the 18th of July, proclaimed a "Day of Peace". Mandala's "Day of Peace" Proclamation was conducted with the same procedure that Kofi Annan suggested in his letter to the Tesla Memorial Society of New York regarding "Nikola Tesla Day of Science". " - Dr. Ljubo Vujovic

What was done until now

There is a long list of achievements of Dr. Ljubo Vujovic regarding the popularization of Nikola Tesla. Dr. Vujovic worked with the City of New York, supplying them with the necessary documents and information for the placement of the "Nikola Tesla Corner" sign on 6th Avenue and 40th Street, New York City.

Above: Tesla Corner on 40th Street and 6th avenue in Manhattan, New York.

The initiative for the placement of the "Nikola Tesla Corner" sign between 6th Avenue and 40th Street was due to the hard work and perseverance of the Croatian Club of New York.

Thanks to Dr. Vujovic, on July 10, 2001, a commemorative plaque for Nikola Tesla was unveiled on Hotel New Yorker, in Manhattan. The plaque was made 1977, but because of political reasons, it was not install on Hotel New Yorker. The Serbian Orthodox Church and many other individuals helped Dr. Vujovic to install the Tesla plaque Hotel New Yorker. This plaque is currently placed on Hotel New Yorker, where Tesla lived from 1933-1943. After 24 years of the creation since the plaque was created, it finally rests on the wall of Hotel New Yorker.

TESLIN RODJENDAN 10 JUL – DAN NAUKE U SVETU

U hotelu New Yorker na Menhetnu, u kome je nekada davno živeo i Nikola Tesla, sreli smo se sa Dr Ljubom Vujovićem generalnim sekretarom njujorškog ogranka Memorijalnog udruženja "Tesla". Ovo udruženje, baš kao i druga širom sveta, ustanovljeno je kako bi se održala uspomena na velikog naučnika. Dr Vujović upravlja i aktivnostima Teslinih udruženja u Americi i Evropi. On je posvetio 40 godina svoga života istraživanju i promociji rada Nikole Tesle. Bez obzira što se do cilja ne dolazi uvek lako i brzo, naš sagovornik se ne predaje. Njegov pogled je okrenut ka Beogradu, a nade polaže u Vladu Srbije i Predsednika Borisa Tadića …

“ Već nekoliko godina, ali bez mnogo uspeha, radimo na proglašenju dana Nikole Tesle koji treba da bude Dan nauke, progresa i mira medju svim nacijama i religijama sveta. Ovu akciju smo pokrenuli 2002.g. zajedno sa sestrinskom organizacijom iz Australije koja se zove Tesla Forum. Želja nam je da se Teslin rodjendan 10 jul proglasi za Dan nauke u celom svetu. Prikupili smo veliki broj dokumenata koje možete videti na našem Web sajtu: www.teslasociety.com pod brojem 2 i brojem 3. Potrebno je da Vlada Srbije uputi zvaničan predlog Ujedinjenim Nacijama za glasanje na Generalnoj skupštini, kao što je svojevremeno i savetovao Kofi Annan nekadašnji Generalni sekretar UN. Veliki impuls i nadu smo dobili kada je 18 jul proglašen za Dan Nelsona Mandele kao Dan mira u svetu. To nam je dalo ohrabrenje jer je procedura bila ista kao što nam je rekao Kofi Annan - jedna zemlja članica UN treba da podnese taj predlog na glasanje i to je sve. Obzirom da Jugoslavia, a sada i Srbija, uživaju simpatije Trećega sveta, verujemo da bi ta akcija potpuno uspela. Medjutim, bez inicijative iz Beograda akcija ne može ni da krene…” – kaže Dr Ljubo Vujović.

Koliko bi proglašenje Teslinog rodjendana 10 jul za Dan nauke u svetu značilo za imidž Srbije nepotrebno je govoriti. Respekt i popularnost koju bi tada stekla Srbija, kao zemlja koja je svetu podarila veliki broj naučnika - Nikola Tesla, Mileva Marić, Mihailo Pupin, Milutin Milanković i mnoge druge, veoma su važni kako za Srbiju danas, tako i za budućnosti zemlje.

Dr Vujović je lekar. Sedamdesetih godina prošlog veka bio je aktivan u pomoći jugoslovenskom udurženju lekara i mnogim bolnicama u Jugoslaviji, sa tretmanima i lekovima za oboljenja raka. On je u to vreme specijalizirao hematologiju i onkologiju. Dr Vujović je primio nagradu "The City Coucil Citation" za svoj lekarski rad u Njujorku. Na nagradi je urezana posveta: "Dr Vujović je istaknuti građanin vredan pohvale i zahvalnosti ovoga veća i građana grada Njujorka." Pored ove nagrade Dr. Vujović sa ponosom nosi i ordenje koje je dobio od Republikanske partije Amerike, orden od Tita za zasluge u vezi lečenja raka, od Vlade Srbije i Vojislava Koštunice za rad na promociji Nikole Tesle.

AF: Šta je uradjeno do sada

Dugačak je spisak stvari koje je Dr Vujović uradio na popularizaciji Nikole Tesle. Sarađivao sa čelnicima grada Njujorka, dostavljajući im potrebna dokumenta i informacije za postavljanje znaka "Nikola Tesla CORNER" na uglu 6.avenije i 40. ulice.
Zahvaljujući njemu 10. jula 2001. otkrivena je komemorativna ploča na hotelu New Yorker na Menhetnu. Ploča je napravljena 1977. ali zbog političkih razloga nije mogla biti postavljena. Dr Vujoviću su oko ovog posla pomogli Srpska pravoslavna crkva i mnogi pojednici. Nakon 24 godine ploča danas stoji na hotelu u kome je Tesla živeo od 1933 do 1943.
Dr Vujović je urednik internet stranice Memorijalnog udruženja Tesla www.teslasociety.com Ovaj sajt sadrži mnoge informacije, fotografije i dokumenta o Nikoli Tesli, Mihailu Pupinu, Milevi Marić … Sajt je posetilo preko milion i 500 hiljada ljudi (1 500 000). Najveći broj posetilaca je iz Amerike, potom Indije, Velike Britanije, Kanade, dok iz Srbije i Crne Gore sajt poseti samo 2 % Teslinih poštovalaca.
Dr Vujović je autor obimne knjige u dva toma "Tribute to Tesla" (Priznanje Tesli) koja sadrži mnoge ilustracije i dokumenta o raskošnom geniju. On je inicirao i bio izuzetno aktivan u najvećem istraživačkom projektu o Nikoli Tesli pod nazivom: "Tesla collection" (Teslina kolekcija).
Autor je dokumentarnog filma: "Nikola Tesla, the Genius Who Lit the World" ("Nikola Tesla – genije koji je osvetlio svet"), koji je napravljen u saradnji sa muzejom "Nikola Tesla" iz Beograda. Film je dobio međunardno priznanje kao najbolji svetski dokumentarni film o Tesli. Film je na engleskom jeziku, ali je preveden na nemački, francuski i srpski jezik i prikazan je na raznim TV stanicama širom planete. On je autor mnogih članaka posvećenih Tesli, a učestvovao je u brojnim televizijskim, radio i novinskim intervjuima koji su imali za temu Teslinin rad, ali i srpsku kulturu.
