The Apollo Guidance Computer had RAM of 4KB, a 32KB hard disk. It was fairly compact for its time, measuring 23.5 in x 11.8 in x 5.9 in, but weighed around 33 lb.

The computing power of the entire federal government was less than an iPhone 4s when Apollo 11 landed on the moon.

Microwave ovens typically have more computing power than the Apollo.

Did they really landed or it was just scripted? Your views please

It was during cold war and they wanted to show off. All scripted

@Alexanderr you got it man, that is my actual doubt

@tosensei don't worry, when they get to the moon again or mars, there will be nonbeleivers every time.

it's just in the nature of smug fools to feel cool knowing that "they know something else no one else knows"

childish

@fullstackcircus but dude 32kb is only 4,096 Characters. How?

If anyone interested here is apollo 11 missions code. https://github.com/chrislgarry/...

This thread is astroturfing 101

@rsharma9234 char is mostly 1 byte unless extended encoding(2 bytes or rarely 3 bytes).

@Alexanderr please don’t be serious…

@fullstackcircus and there 6 manned landings on the moon by USA. Some conspiracists are truly idiots that discredit true conspiracies(not all conspiracies are wrong imo)

@Alexanderr 16Gb is only 16777216 KB not whatever you said.

A simple arduino Board has more RAM, ehich is mostly because of minification of components, CPU and RAM Chips for starters and the rest components get combined.

So comparing a 16GB Mac book with the Apollo guidance computer is like comparing Apples to Oranges. Both have CPUs but very different architecture and purposes(Mac is general compute whereas Apollo guidance is only used for trajectory computation and execution).

@Alexanderr i couldn’t decide which one is stupider: you or ostream…

@aviophile @tosensei don't feed the trolls

@electrineer meh, trolling in devRant is so low level that I would pity feed him.

@Alexanderr hungry yet?
