This was one of my favorite museums in the world.
My wife and I have many good memories playing checkmo against a beautifully maintained PDP-8 At the museum. She just yelled out a genuine “No!” when I relayed the closure.
At one point they kept a binder of photos of victorious players.
We never made that binder and I guess we never will.

Being able to directly touch and play with the past reality really makes you appreciate how we arrived at modern computers.
