EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from 1987, we see Becky the chimpanzee, just 18 months old and raised at Twycross Zoo, sitting on a cushion next to an IBM AT-5170 computer. With curiosity in her eyes, she reaches out to touch the keyboard with her tiny hand, perhaps trying to make sense of this strange new contraption before her.
This photograph captures a moment in time when science and technology were rapidly advancing, and even our closest relatives in the animal kingdom were being introduced to the world of computing. It serves as a reminder of our shared evolutionary history and the incredible intelligence of primates like Becky.
As we look back on this scene from the 1980s, it is fascinating to think about how far we have come in terms of information technology since then. The bulky IBM computer that Becky is exploring would be considered ancient by today's standards, yet it represents a pivotal moment in the history of computing.
Through images like this one, we are reminded of our connection to all living beings on Earth and how our quest for knowledge has led us down many unexpected paths. Becky's innocent curiosity serves as a poignant symbol of humanity's endless thirst for understanding and discovery.
