It is July 3rd, 1950.
The Korean War has just begun. Harry Truman has received a grim outline of the Cold War that is to enfold the world for the next 40 years. Cinderella is a box office sensation. And you have invented a computer that can see the future.
This computer, Juggernaut, processes enormous data sets, supposedly in the service of code-breaking once the technology is proven and refined. But it seems that Juggernaut - given enough resources - should be able to crack ciphers before they are even invented.
