Antikythera Device research update
by Simon at 10:02 12/06/06 (Blogs::Simon)
Advanced 3D X ray scanning of the artifact, which appears to be a sophisticated mechanical device, has revealed more of the Greek inscription.

We have to wait until November 06 before they'll say what the inscription says though.
