20th century

This dimension places an engineer in the years they were actually working. Wikipedia records Nikola Tesla lived from "10 July 1856" until his death "in New York City in January 1943," a career spanning the birth of electrical power itself. Browsing by era sets an engineer alongside the peers who were working during the same period.
