Apollo Guidance Computer Part 1: Restoring the computer that put man on the Moon
CuriousMarc
The first episode of CuriousMarc's series restoring a real Apollo Guidance Computer, led by AGC expert Mike Stewart. They set up a makeshift lab in a Houston hotel room to open up a rare machine owned by a private collector.
HN people recommend the whole AGC restoration series as a deeply nerdy look at real Apollo-era hardware, including core rope memory.
