(Strangest Things: Season 3: Mechanical Turk, Lindbergh Pump, Etruscan Mummy) Věda Locked away in the vaults of museums, laboratories and storage rooms are the most remarkable and mysterious objects on Earth. Until now, the public has never had such access to these rare finds. Using the latest 3D imaging, we can pull them apart, zero in on small details, and rebuild lost or damaged features to uncover their mind-boggling, ancient and bizarre secrets. Scientists and historians reveal the most up-to-date understanding of these oddities and ponder the unanswered questions that remain. From the rarest artifacts found in buried tombs to the weirdest inventions of military engineers and mad scientists to the most beautiful and feared relics of cults and lost societies, these are the world’s strangest things. Chess-playing computers are nothing new today, but how did a robot beat the world’s best chess players back in 1770? Is this the world’s first artificial intelligence, or is there sleight of hand at play? Charles Lindbergh was arguably the world’s most famous man in the 1930s, as the first to fly non-stop across the Atlantic and then have his son tragically kidnapped. Lesser known is his invention of a singular glass pump of elegant design. What is it for? A 2,400-year-old mummy is brought from Egypt to Croatia by a collector. Only after it is donated to a museum does anyone realize that this mummy is wrapped in the rarest remnant of a lost language. The writing on the wrappings is pored over by experts to decipher it. What does it say? MN 7 (United States)
