Olympic Computer




Antikythera - Ancient Olympic Computer?





Read the Antikythera Mechanism Research Project's article in Nature. Contains detailed description of the decoding of a calendar. It also looks like it could predict eclipses - like the one we are about to experience 1. August 2008. Pretty awesome!

Or simply sit back and enjoy the video presentation! :-)
