Elon Musk donates $1M to Tesla museum

What's in a name? Maybe a million bucks.

Tesla Motors Chief Executive Elon Musk has pledged $1 million toward a new science museum honoring inventor Nikola Tesla in Shoreham, Long Island.

Tesla would have been 158 years old last Thursday.

The prolific inventor died penniless in 1943 in a New York City hotel room, obsessed with pigeons.

The science center is slated to be built on the Long Island site where Tesla had his lab and where he built a 187-foot transmission tower to experiment with wireless power transmission.

That tower was built thanks to an Elon Musk of the Gilded Era: Financier J.P. Morgan gave more than $150,000 in the latter years of the 19th century to build the tower.

Musk has also promised to install a Tesla TSLA "supercharger" station on the grounds of the future museum.
