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.

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/2019/0…

Neil Armstrong is remembered for many feats, including breaking records in aviation and spaceflight. On his birthday, we remember the man who inspired millions when he walked on the surface of the Moon. More: go.nasa.gov/2OHMLqv

Those 1202 and 1201 program alarms on #Apollo11 triggered a failsafe in the computer; it rebooted without losing the status of ongoing programs. All thanks to Hal Laning! Thanks to @wehackthemoon for making this explainer possible! youtube.com/watch?v=LELUXyVD…

“There was no second chance. We all knew that.” Margaret Hamilton led the team that developed the building blocks of software engineering — a term that she coined herself — for Apollo guidance. Remember the women who made #Apollo50th possible: go.nasa.gov/2jRonUI

From engineering rockets to programming code to sewing suits to inventing space food, women played many different roles in our race to the moon. As we celebrate #Apollo50th, meet some of the women of Project Apollo: [thread]
