We recently restored an Apollo Guidance Computer, the computer that provided guidance, navigation, and control onboard the Apollo flights to the Moon. This historic computer was one of the first to use integrated circuits and its CPU was built entirely from NOR gates. In this blog post, I describe the architecture and circuitry of the CPU.
