Hi Roy, two of them: "Digital Apollo", Mindell, David A., MIT 2008 and: "Journey to the Moon, History of the Apollo Guidance Computer", Hall, Eldon C., 1996 The Mindell book is really excellent, reads like a novel, no EE degree required. Mindell discusses the trade-offs they made such as in-flight repair capability or not as well as the overall mission in great detail. The Hall book is written by an engineer that actually worked on the AGC, and very detailed, it includes schematics, many photos, GANTT charts, etc. This book is not as cohesive as the first one though, and focuses mostly on the computer rather than the mission. bye, Said In a message dated 11/18/2009 15:27:01 Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
