Episode 14: On the Fly with Don Eyles

It's been a long break for CWA and we apologize.  After a hard drive issue took away our recordings, it took a better part of a year running SpinRite on the bad drive to recover the lost data.  But now we're happy to offer you Episode 14: On the Fly with Don Eyles!

As a young software engineer at M.I.T., Don Eyles wrote the guidance software the Apollo Lunar Module Guidance Computer used to land on the moon.  But when a lose solder connection threatened to abort the landing, Eyles wrote a quick patch from a quarter million miles away so that Alan Shepard could play golf in the Frau Mauro Highlands.

This one's worth the wait.
