Joint Genome Institute among destinations in “The Geek Atlas”

Each site in The Geek Atlas focuses on discoveries or inventions and includes information about the people and the science behind them. Full of photos and illustrations, the book comes complete with latitudes and longitudes for GPS devices.

The destinations covered include, naturally, Bletchley Park itself, as well as the Alan Turing Memorial in Manchester, England; the Horn Antenna in New Jersey, where the Big Bang theory was confirmed; the National Cryptologic Museum in Fort Meade, Maryland; the Trinity Test Site in New Mexico, where the first atomic bomb was exploded and the Joint Genome Institute in Walnut Creek, California.

The rest of the story can be found here.
