#MPIM50 #ThrowbackThursday #tbt

👩🏼‍💻 #MPIM's 1st #supercomputer, a CDC Cyber-205, was installed in Hamburg's Geomatikum in 1985. 2.5 yrs later, the German Climate Computing Center #DKRZ was established as a service facility for climate research in Germany. Continuous upgrades enabled substantial progress in the development of realistic #climate models. Today, scientists from #MPIM &other institutes are using the Levante supercomputer, which has 70 million times the computing power of the Cyber-205! #MPIM50 #ThrowbackThursday #tbt
