Antonio Meulener: El Oppenheimer Español [Spanish]

By: Torremocha Silva, Antonio

At the dawn of the 20th century, the name of Antonio Meulener resonates in Spanish military circles and the media as that of a visionary and audacious inventor. This military man not only possessed exceptional talent, but also an unwavering determination to change the course of history with his creations. The high point of his career comes with the development of the 'Meulener torpedo', a revolutionary rocket that uses a modified gunpowder to reach impressive distances. This innovation attracted the attention of the press of the time and secured his place in the annals of the war industry. But Meulener's genius knew no bounds. Years later, he ventured into the creation of an even more powerful explosive, christened 'Thospiro'. The tests of this new invention in the Toledo mountains in 1912 left a trail of destruction so shocking that it led the inventor to deep reflection. Aware of the devastating potential of his creation, Meulener makes a drastic decision: to destroy the plans and the formula, burying his dangerous legacy forever.
