Margaret Hamilton, lead software engineer, Project Apollo — Medium This is a great photo I just ran across on the internets. It said it was “Margaret Hamilton, Apollo program”, but it didn’t say who Margaret Hamilton was. Margaret Hamilton was the lead software engineer for Project Apollo.

Hamilton’s work prevented an abort of the Apollo 11 moon landing. Hamilton coined the term “software engineering.” Hamilton was a badass.
