Gonzaga in Berlin: German Technical Museum

Today, Gonzaga in Berlin students traveled to the German Technical Museum. The museum was built in 1983. It hosts a clone of the first Turing complete computer, which was constructed in 1989. At the moment, the museum is under renovation. The museum had sections like locomotives, engines, engines, computers, televisions, radios, and other machinery. The new building was built in 2001. It’s dedicated to displaying ships and aviation.

Our tour guide showed us how locomotive transportation was used in Germany, prominently during World War II. She also explained to us the ships and aviation. Out of all the museum, the icing on top: the first Turing-complete computer clone. Dr. Crandall passionately spoke about its history. It may not look like much, but a man originally built this in his parents’ living room. Just think, today, you the reader, are using something much more powerful and smaller. The students are looking forward to increasing their skills in the field of information warfare.
