🚨 Breaking News: Margaret #Hamilton, who lead the #100-person team that wrote the onboard #software for the #Apollo missions, guiding Neil #Armstrong and Buzz #Aldrin to a safe landing on the #moon, has died.

#TIL Buzz Aldrin on Apollo 11 reported seeing brief flashes of light while his eyes were closed. NASA later determined these were charged particles (cosmic radiation) passing through his eyes and stimulating his retina, not actual light.
