A declassified NSA report reveals a stunning fact: the ancient Maya had a fully functioning astronomical computing system, encoded in their sacred codices.
This “device” didn’t need electricity or microchips — it ran on time, math, and algorithms.
Using nothing more than painted glyphs and calendar grids, Maya priests could predict solar eclipses, track planets of the Solar system, and even apply leap-year corrections with greater accuracy than our modern Gregorian calendar.
In this episode we’ll follow the unlikely collaboration between a Maya historian and a still-classified NSA cryptanalyst, as they decode a 260-day ritual calendar — what may be one of the world’s oldest visual analog computers.
