I question the choice of "Hava Nagila" as the outro. Was there nothing else the programmers could have used?
-
Computers have come so far no doubt, but where is the progress with space exploration? There is none. Fake moon landing...fake space shuttles ...fake ISS... And now we're proving that Hubble Is false. The hits just keep on coming

Again no real photos or videos of space. Bubbles in space. LMAO

My watch is more boring than most of these comments....

It's amazing that the technology that I have in my spinal column stimulator implant has more computer processing power than what was used in going to the moon.

I remember watching this before, but the music wasn't corrupted/muted like it is now :(

Could we have gone to the Moon using analog computers like the stuff Systron Donner was building up into the 1970's. Also I ran across this old patent 3190554 of a digital computer that use air instead of electricity. Think something like that would have been useful in the Space Program? Think such a digital computer could be made using a modern 3D Printer?

Today's smart phones have more computing power than the computer onboard the Apollo Command and Service Module as the Lunar Module combined!

Wow, the beginnings of one of the greatest accomplishments of civilized mankind - 8 bit music!

All due to the hard work and dedication of the "Old White Guys", who everyone seems to hate today.

It's fascinating how far we've come in such a short time.
-
And by 2030 computers the size of blood cells will have more computing power then the smart phones today.

My current smartphone is more powerful than a desktop PC I have sitting by my feet right now which is only like 9 years old.
