#5In the early 80's I worked on a Jovial compiler and runtime libraries for the Mil Std 1750A processor (which was a spec delivered from several companies in hardware) used by the Airforce and also used on various NASA spacecraft, in my case we used it on the F16 Fighter. Fairly sophisticated for back then, an antique today.

Wow! So cool. This is why I love HN. I just spent the last 3 hours reading the paper and then watched the documentary.
Amazing engineering.
