The Rebuilt Antikythera Solves Secrets Of The World’s First Computer
The famous ancient Greek astronomical calculator known as the “Antikythera Mechanism” is a mechanical device created to predict astronomical events. Now, UCL scientists have recreated the tool which is known as the oldest analogue computational machine ever discovered.
At 2000 years, it is “still” the oldest analog computational machine ever discovered. Now, University College London (UCL) scientists have created a “theoretical” rebuilt Antikythera device that solves the mysteries and problems in amazing ways.
The on-paper rebuilt Antikythera calculator only became a reality when scientists finally “connected” the foremost 63-tooth gear and its relation to the 462-year Venus cycle.
