Rebooting a 50 Year Old Computer - Making The Apollo Guidance Computer Work Again

The Apollo Guidance Computer is a pivotal part of computer history, and it was a key part of making it possible for Apollo to land on the moon.

Back in July 2019, Scott Manley visited a team of electronics wizards who were trying to resurrect a computer that was scrapped 50 years ago. 

You should make a point of watching Curious Marc's multi-part series on their quest to bring this computer back to life - 50 years after it was originally built.
