The Enigma encryption machine used by the Nazis to send encoded messages during World War II was discovered by German divers fishing from the Baltic Sea. The divers have now handed over this rare find to the museum. A lot of interesting information about this is currently out.
This famous Enigma encryption machine was discovered last month while searching for abandoned fishing nets in the Gulf of Gelting in northeastern Germany. The web is stuck with the old 'typewriter'. "However, the team quickly sent word to the relevant authorities after realizing that they had found a historical artifact.
Ulf Ickrod, head of the State Archaeological Office in the Shelswick-Holstein region of Germany, said the machine would be restored by experts from the State Archaeological Museum.He said it would take "one year" to complete the complete desalination of the Enigma engine, which was discovered seven decades later in the Baltic Sea.
After that, the Enigma engine will be on display at the museum. John Witt, a naval historian with the German Navy, said that the Enigma engine may have had three rotors and that it may have been thrown from a German warship in the final days of World War II.It is said that since Adolf Hitler's U-boats used more sophisticated four-rotor Enigma engines, the chances of it coming from a submarine were slim. It is noteworthy that the Allied forces worked tirelessly to decrypt the codes produced by the Enigma machine, and each Enigma information was exchanged once every 24 hours.
Alan Turing, the British mathematician considered to be the father of modern mathematics, led a group in Britain's Fletchley Park, which broke the Enigma code in 1941. This Enigma development helped the Allies to understand important radio news about German military movements. Some confusion also occurred during World War II without understanding Enigma information.
Historians believe that Enigma broke the code and shortened the Second World War by about two years.
