Have you ever wondered how NASA updates Voyager's software from 15 billion miles away? Or how Voyager's memories are stored? In this video, we dive deeper into the incredible story of how a small team of engineers managed to keep Voyager alive, as well as how NASA could perform a software update on a computer that's been cruising through space for almost half a century.

I was thinking of cross posting this to a Fortran community, but it looks like we don't yet have one.

I'm sure everyone is still in comp.lang.fortran telling all kids to get off their lawns.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

The only experience I have with working with Fortran would be setting up gfortran when building SciPy from source, and perusing its codebase to see how it's FFT functions were so optimized. Not enough to diligently mod I'm afraid.
