In episode ten of 5 Minute Mysteries, we dive into the extraordinary mystery of the Antikythera Mechanism, an ancient device discovered in a shipwreck off the coast of Greece in 1901. Often referred to as the world’s first analogue computer, this intricate mechanism, dating back over 2,000 years, was far ahead of its time, used to predict astronomical events with remarkable precision. How did the ancient Greeks possess such advanced technological knowledge, and what was the true purpose of this remarkable invention? Join us as we explore the mystery of the Antikythera Mechanism and the secrets it still holds today.
