In college my dad got to dismantle an Apollo capsule as an EE project at NC State. Up until a few years ago we still had a board from it. Good times, great oldies.

whats most impressive is that these days your average mobile phone packs more computing power then that thing, and yet there has not been a person on the moon for some 20+ years…

but i guess thats understandable as the robotics become more and more advanced. just watch the recent mars missions thats working better then expected.
