Sad news for the family and space computer history.

The Apollo Flight Guidance computer was an absolute amazing accomplishment critical to the success of the series of flights. The program was key to that success, especially the survival of the Apollo 13 crew.

You can see an actual Apollo computer when you visit InfoAge at Camp Evans.

Margaret Hamilton, the first female programmer hired to work on the space project at M.I.T., was 90.

Thank you for this nice post. We have eight museums on this National Historic Landmark. We are located off Route 18, exit 7 northbound / 7A southbound. We are open W, S, & S noon to 5. Free parking. One fee gives you entrance to all the museums.

Some places make you slow down before you even realize it. A walk through those low brick buildings and open grounds brings back the feeling of an era when radios were magic and big ideas came wrapped in wires, tubes, and antennas.

The old military campus still carries that mid-century science look, with its plain utilitarian buildings and wide stretches of grass that once held serious work. There’s a real mix of history here, from wartime research to the early days of communication and technology.

I always like places that keep more than one chapter alive at once. You can feel the weight of what happened here without it feeling frozen in time.

A 25th Anniversary Commemoration of the World Trade Center Attack.
Mr. Henry Muller – Vice Chairman, InfoAge
Dr. John Kosinski – Vice President, AOC Garden State Chapter

In the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, numerous governments, military, law enforcement, and civilian organizations deployed personnel and equipment to support rescue, recovery, and investigative operations at the World Trade Center site.
The above presentation tells the untold story of individuals from organizations formerly at Camp Evans and Fort Monmouth who brought, unsolicited, special purpose monitoring military equipment, on their own initiative, to the WTC site to aid in the search and identification of potential survivors and aircraft flight recorders.
Using the sophisticated sensors and electronics, operators conducted systematic searches for survivors in the debris field. This mission represents an early example of applying communications intelligence and electronic warfare methodologies to a domestic disaster-response environment.

World changing technology advanced in Wall. Just one reason so many volunteers are dedicated to sharing Camp Evans with families and future generations.

📻⚡ Throwback Thursday – The Invention That Helped Radio Find Its Voice


Imagine trying to listen to the radio while every lightning storm produced a constant barrage of crashes, buzzes, clicks, and hisses. In the early days of wireless communication, atmospheric electrical disturbances could overwhelm radio signals and sometimes make wireless stations unusable for hours.

Morse code operators could occasionally decipher dots and dashes through the interference—but transmitting and receiving clear voices was another challenge entirely.

And part of the solution was developed right here in Wall Township.

📡 At the Belmar Marconi Station, located at what is now Camp Evans, engineer Roy A. Weagant developed a revolutionary system designed to dramatically reduce atmospheric static and allow wireless signals to be received with much greater clarity.

The technology attracted the attention of none other than Guglielmo Marconi, the Nobel Prize-winning pioneer of wireless telegraphy. Marconi made multiple trips to Wall Township to witness demonstrations of Weagant's work firsthand.

After his third visit, Marconi reportedly declared:

"It is worth millions." 💰

Following World War I, the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company publicly announced Weagant's static-elimination system on November 19, 1918, revealing technology that had been kept secret during the war.

🎙️ Weagant's work represented an important advancement in wireless communication. Reducing interference helped make clearer radio reception possible and contributed to the continuing evolution of wireless technology as radio expanded beyond Morse code to carry voices, music, news, and entertainment into homes across America.

It's another fascinating chapter in Wall Township's technological history—and another reminder that groundbreaking innovations with an impact far beyond our community were taking place right here at Camp Evans.

📻 The next time you turn on the radio, think about this: part of the story of how America entered the Radio Age was written right here in Wall Township!

❤️ History & Heart. Always.

Special thanks to Fred Carl of InfoAge for preserving and sharing this piece of Camp Evans history.
