NASA uses Red Hat Linux

April 24th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

Today I visited the NASA Space Center at Houston.
At the Mission Control Center there was a computer showing a Windows XP screensaver. Someone asked:
Do you use windows on all your computers?
The NASA guy answered:
“No, we use Windows  only on the computer for the projector, for the rest, we use Red Hat Linux which is more reliable than Windows. Failure is Not an Option”
