00:09It looked like a piece of rusty metal.
00:10But in 1979, scientist Derek de Sola Price discovered that it was a bronze mechanism with gears.
00:16dated between 205 and 100 in Trichrist.
00:19This artifact, about the size of a book, contains 30 gears and Greek text.
00:23He could predict eclipses and track the movement of stars.
00:26Some believe it was designed by Archimedes, others that it was inspired by Hipparchus of Nicaea.
00:32There are even theories about extraterrestrial technology.
00:35In 2021, scientists reconstructed the mechanism in 3D, showing that it could predict eclipses
00:4119 years in advance.
00:43But 90% of its functions remain a mystery.
00:46And what do you think?
