The radar operator of a No. 220 Squadron Boeing Fortress at Benbecula in the Hebrides, May 1943.

On January 27, at 3:30 p.m., at the Wilkinson Public Library, the Museum will host: “Radar: what is it and how does it work?” Students will learn the fascinating history of the technology that changed the world, then try on our radar goggles and see if you can navigate an obstacle course by radar alone. Free event!

This program is a STEM-inspired education program based on our 2014-15 exhibit theme, Voices of Wartime: Telluride During WWII.
