So how many copies of the code on the right would fit on those hard drives on the left?
Left: MIT computer scientist Katie Bouman w/stacks of hard drives of black hole image data.
Right: MIT computer scientist Margaret Hamilton w/the code she wrote that helped put a man on the moon.

The Apollo 11 code is actually on
@GitHub, if you download it, it's 3.02MB. 3.02MB can fit into 1TB, about 331,100 times. I don't know how big those drives are, or how much data was generated. If they are only 1TB drives though, the Apollo code would fit 21,190,400ish times. - Voir les réponses

Thanks for tagging me! It was your tweet that introduced me to Dr Bouman's work. (The image credit certainly shouldn't be mine, it's from the BBC.) But anyway you're awesome, she's awesome, it's an awesome day for science!

Not it doesn’t, on the tweet it clearly states “Helped”. And I don’t think you get the point of the tweet...
