The Forgotten Genius Who Built the First Computer in WWII

Описание: Winter 1943. Inside a secret British compound, one man dared to answer an impossible question: could electronics defeat the Third Reich before mathematics even had a chance?

While history books praise the Enigma breakers, a darker, more complex story was unfolding in the shadows of Bletchley Park. This is the untold story of Tommy Flowers, a Post Office engineer who designed Colossus—the world’s first programmable electronic computer. His invention didn't just crack codes; it exposed the German Lorenz cipher, giving the Allies direct access to Hitler’s top-secret communications and changing the course of World War II.

For 30 years, his contribution remained classified, his name erased from the history books. Today, we uncover the engineering marvel that laid the foundation for the digital age and the innovation that saved countless lives.
