This morning the students took a field trip to the National Cryptological Museum! They got to hear from former NSA employees about what the agency does, then they got a guided tour around the museum to learn all about the history of how the technology has evolved and how each item was used to gain the advantage in past wars. The museum hosts past computers that have been retired all the way up to 2017, which gave the students opportunity to reflect on how quickly technology changes and how many advances they will get to see by the time they are in the workforce!
