With air lifts, wheel changes and extremely tight squeezes, the reconstruction of the Turing-Welchman Bombe, the Enigma code-breaking machine, edged its way into TNMOC thanks to a Crowdfunder appeal.

The Paessler 2018 Bytes Festivals starts on 29 March 2018 with lots of hands-on events and workshops until 8 April 2018. Sci-fi, code-breaking, digital music, Station X, coding and learning are all in the mix.

The Bombe will stay on the Bletchley Park Estate thanks to the huge success of the Crowdfunder that raised £60,000, exceeding the original target of £50,000. Donations are still coming in.

Three Witches – one scientific and two artistic -- have been brought together for a public display at TNMOC until the end of April 2018. Never before have these three Witches been seen together.
