"To say that Margaret Hamilton was a pioneer and that she was ahead of her time would be a dramatic understatement. She was a software engineer at a time when the field was just being born, and not only did she develop advanced code herself, but she also led a team that utilized this emerging technology to develop one of the most complex systems ever created by mankind," said Olivier de Weck, a professor in the Apollo program and head of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT. #MargaretHamiltonová #Apollo11 #SoftwarovéInženýrství (translated)
"I fought for software to gain legitimacy, so that it and those who create it would receive the proper respect. That is why I began to use the term 'software engineering' to distinguish it from hardware and other types of engineering, while still considering every type of engineering as part of the overall process of systems engineering," Hamilton said in an interview with El País in 2018. #MargaretHamiltonová #Apollo11 #SoftwarovéInženýrství (translated)

Steven Cercamondi wrote that Margaret Hamilton, whom he referred to as the "woman of the Moon," had passed away at the age of 90. He described a photograph in which Hamilton appeared next to the lists of software developed by the team she led for the lunar module and the command module of the Apollo 11 mission. According to Cercamondi, that software managed critical functions such as flight control, navigation, data, communications, and safety, and was designed to handle emergencies and failures by providing real-time feedback to the astronauts. He also credited Hamilton with introducing an error management approach based on "interrupts," which allowed for timely detection and management of problems. He wrote that the team's code had provided the foundations for the safe operation of space missions and concluded with a message of condolence. #MargaretHamilton #NASA #Apollo11 (translated)
