The power of Lego and the Human mind.

Andrew Carol built a working replica of the Antikythera Mechanism astronomical computer that dates back to 150 BC. The design was discovered in a shipwreck and is now brought to function for the first time — at least in LEGO. The video below is simply astounding. You can read more about it on New Scientist TV.

Anybody read MAKE magazine? They did a similar special in the magazines on one they built, and showed how to make a satellite with the NXT LEGO parts. This is mind boggling though. Truly amazing.

Wow! I have never seen anything like it! It looks truly complex, and I bet it was a hard build. It is truly amazing what we can do with Lego... The possibilities are endless!
