This episode tells the story of the Chronovisor. An alleged time machine put together by various scientists under the direction of the Vatican in the 1950's. The Chronovisor, according to Fr Pellegrino Ernetti, allowed its operators to hear, see, and record past events without interacting with them. Deemed too dangerous and controversial by Pope Pius XII, it was ordered to be disassembled and locked away in the Vatican's Archives.
