This book examines the computer systems used in actual spaceflight or in close support of it. Computer systems used in administration and in aeronautical and other research not directly related to spaceflight are ignored. Each chapter deals with either a specific program, such as Gemini or Apollo onboard computers, or a closely related set of systems, such as launch processing or mission control.. A glossary of computer terms is included.
