First word discovered in unopened Herculaneum scroll by 21yo computer science student Vesuvius Challenge $700,000 Grand Prize “now definitely achievable”

pretty amazing one in the world of ancient mss

A group of manuscripts recovered 250 yrs ago are too delicate to be opened! How to read it?

Three scholars figured out how to scan them without touching them
