.@OhioState's band gave us a quick history lesson ππ
This is it. Hack the Moon LIVE is coming to a close.π Tomorrow, 10/5 from 5 - 10 PM is your last chance to learn about the engineers behind the #Apollo missions & experience our Lunar Landing Flight Simulator.π Continue exploring at WeHacktheMoon.com. #HacktheMoon

How does it feel to be the only woman in the room? Like you are under a microscope because you are: During Apollo 8 sims, I discovered there was a camera focused just on me.
Speaking about the cameras in the @NASA control center during Apollo 11, engineer @poppy_northcutt, "Let everybody who is not in this damn room know, there is a woman here. I'm here. Get used to it." Watch more of this @airandspace program on Sunday at 7pm ET on C-SPAN 3.

π Full Moon Friday... the 13th π
Too spooky? Hunker down and learn more about @NASAβs current and future lunar plans at moon.nasa.gov
#Artemis #FridayThe13th
Love seeing this group excited about space! @KatiSearcyβs got some future #STEM leaders on her hands. #STEMeducation
Engineer Bill Widnall describes the unique difficulty of landing on the moon. It's a wonder we ever got there, let alone 50 years ago. #hackthemoon

Bill Anders, an astronaut for Apollo 8, described the next-to-impossible feat of returning home from space. And you thought getting to the moon was the hard part? #hackthemoon bit.ly/33m9agk
People didn't trust computers to fly planes until #NeilArmstrong used one to get to the moon and back. Learn more about how the innovations developed during the #Apollo missions are part of your everyday life. #hackthemoon

Journey to the moon with never-before-seen images and videos from the #Apollo missions. bit.ly/2HWUsEg
Instead of landing a giant rocket on the moon and blasting off again, a feat that would've taken massive amounts of energy, John Houbolt proposed a new, revolutionary way to reach the moon and return home. #hackthemoon

This week we take a break from the Mac, and talk about what it was like to build the computer code that handled the landing on the Moon, with engineer Don Eyles from Draper Laboratory. Thanks to @VMware, @jumpcloud and @macstadium! podcast.macadmins.org/2019/0β¦
One of the last people to step foot on the moon, astronaut-scientist Harrison Schmitt described his visit: "It is deeper than the Grand Canyon. They're brilliantly illuminated by the sun...It is truly a magnificent place to be..." bit.ly/33f625H
