In London Ada, Countess of Lovelace, is using Mr. Babbage's Analytical Engine in a project to calculate the progress of storms at sea. If she can succeed, her warnings may save countless lives.

She has decided to warn as many people as possible. If she is correct, her attempts will be vindicated. A failure may destroy the project. But she feels honour-bound to go ahead.
