Today is the first birthday of Grandma got STEM! Thank you to everyone who has submitted #GGSTEM posts and made this project possible. A big hello to the readers around the world (so far from 137 countries)!
Thanks to Kimberly Moynahan, who shared this article in the Telegraph about a picture of WWII codebreakers that was put aside in a drawer until recently.
According to the article,
Mrs Chorley described the “sense of urgency” that filled the office where the women worked as Colossus stood next to them, filling “half a room”.
“Bletchley Park was one of the pleasantest places I’ve worked in, you knew the work was worthwhile and Colossus was an amazing machine and I found it thrilling.
