42 https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd.html
in short: it is a kernel originally made to work with the gnu operating system that sadly enough doesn't get worked on that often anymore due to the fact that the Linux kernel works better together with gnu (right now)

41 oh...okay. *pretends to understand*

42 simple said
people worked on gnu to get an open-source OS
other people started to work on hurd to give the OS a kernel (basically the hearth of an OS)
then Linux got made and people liked to use that as a kernel for the GNU operating system instead of the still in development hurd.
Linux became "popular" and most people forgot that hurd exists. (some humans still work on it though, and version 0.7 got released this year)

42 its kind of sad that hurd fell behind as it has some nice features (at least on paper)
for example being pretty much completely modular even so far that different users on the same machine can use different things to handle the RAM.

42 its the program gnu uses to give people access to a gui.
It is client-server based and as a result you can do pretty sweet things
