Code me to the Moon (and back)

/* Don Eyles, a young scientist at MIT in Boston in the 60s, brings us the story of his experience in creating the source code of the Apollo Guidance Computer, the computer that allowed man to be brought to the Moon. He will tell us about the technical challenges they had to face to create a unique software in history and will reveal the background of how the quality of that code and the skill of those programmers literally saved several Apollo missions from unexpected events during the descent to the Moon.*/
