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.

Ed White uses Anscochrome 200 on his Gemini IV EVA, a mission supported by flight

in space, as well as the first use of a digital computer in space to change a spacecraft's
orbit.
