About this listen

In 1901, divers off the coast of Greece uncovered a shipwreck filled with treasures. Among the statues and relics was a corroded lump of bronze, ignored for decades. When scientists finally scanned it, they discovered something that should not exist: a machine of impossible precision, built over 2,000 years ago.

Known as the Antikythera Mechanism, this artifact is often called the world’s first computer. Its interlocking gears could track eclipses, predict planetary movements, and map the heavens with astonishing accuracy — long before modern science. But who built it, and how was this knowledge lost?

In this episode of Fireside Mysteries, we investigate the Antikythera Mechanism: a piece of forbidden technology that challenges everything we think we know about ancient civilizations. Was it simply an extraordinary Greek invention? Evidence of a lost advanced culture? Or something even stranger — a blueprint left behind by visitors from beyond?

👉 What do you think? Was the Antikythera Mechanism proof of lost human genius… or a relic of ancient alien contact? Let us know in the comments.
