In 1901, sponge divers sheltering from a storm off the Greek island of Antikythera surfaced with a corroded bronze lump that sat in an Athens museum for decades before anyone realised it was a 2,000-year-old geared computer that could predict eclipses and track the Olympic Games

The Antikythera mechanism spent 2,000 years on the seabed and another 50 in a museum drawer before X-rays revealed it was a hand-cranked bronze computer that predicted eclipses, modelled the Moon's elliptical orbit, and tracked the schedule of the ancient Olympic Games. Read more
