Apollo Guidance Computer Saved From The Scrap Yard

Software as Hardware: Apollo’s Rope Memory

The computer used to send the first humans to the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969 was the Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC). An interesting fact about this computer is that it had only 2.048 MHz of processing power and 2,048 words of memory. This is incredibly limited by today's standards, yet it played a critical role in the success of the moon landing. #SpaceTech #Apollo11 #History #Smartphones #MoonLanding #TechEvolution #MoonMission #HistoricalTech #SpaceExploration #TechFacts #Innova
