CT & I's mission is to
document and present in context the inventions and industrial innovations
of New York's Southern Tier. Upstate New York has a heritage that continues today of creative
technology enterprises, whose guidance systems, computers, flight
simulators, cameras, and high-speed film helped the US win the race to the
moon. |
