Comment Re:Couple of missing items (Score 1) 181

There's always something missing for someone.

Dig deeper, there are some tidbits there. It's usually not a matter of omission, rather one of being able to get the whole story told right before publishing.

We've got some old lectures, some including transcripts, some texts for both Baby and Colossus. I can't say why one or both aren't featured more prominently in current exhibits.

It's been a multi-year process for the exhibits team designing the future full scale museum. We are currently in an 'Alpha Phase' while we ramp up.

Some of my favorite items in the video library are a video of Tom Kilburn accepting Fellows nomination in the museum, and another of him demonstrating the finished reconstruction of Baby, now housed at the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester.
