Alan Turing - Sun in Gemini - Moon in Libra - Uranus 10th house Aquarius.

 

Born June 23, 1912, London, England, British mathematician and logician, who made major contributions to mathematics, cryptanalysis, logic, philosophy, and mathematical biology and also to the new areas later named computer science, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and artificial life.   Sun, Pluto, Mercury and Venus all in Gemini and combust, the 2^nd house.

Moon in Libra trine to the above mentioned planets; also trine to Uranus, geniality, in his 10^th house, under Aquarius.

He entered the University of Cambridge to study mathematics in 1931. After graduating in 1934, he was elected to a fellowship at King’s College in recognition of his research in probability theory. In 1936 Turing’s seminal paper “On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Decision Problem”.

Alan Turing discovered a formal system that would reduce the whole of mathematics to methods that (human) computers could carry out. It was in the course of his work on the Entscheidungsproblem that Turing invented the universal Turing machine, an abstract computing machine that encapsulates the fundamental logical principles of the digital computer. Alan Turing saved millions of human lives, thanks to his systematic method for breaking messages encrypted by the Nazis.

By early 1942 the cryptanalysts at Bletchley Park were decoding about 39,000 intercepted messages each month, a figure that rose subsequently to more than 84,000 per month—two messages every minute, day and night. In 1942 Turing also devised the first systematic method for breaking messages encrypted by the sophisticated German cipher machine that the British called “Tunny.” At the end of the war, Turing was made an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (OBE) for his code-breaking work.
