My mind was blown that I could read Apollo 11 source code. It was additionally blown that it included comments like, "# TEMPORARY, I HOPE HOPE HOPE"



Not mind blowing, but calling a subroutine BURNBABY in your moon launch code is just great.

Also finding out the source was similar to open source quad copter code with perhaps one the first usages of a Kalman filter to integrate various instruments to maintain level flight was both mind blowing and very satisfying.


Not only can you read it, you can also run it!
