Right, I want to know what metals were used for the chassis and why, how many layers the PCBs have, if solder or crimping was used for connectors, the chip packages - ceramic? plastic? - what kind of ROM and RAM are used, the CPUs, what kind of shielding there is, what protection against cosmic rays is there (apparently not enough to prevent the recent issues), and then on the software, lets see some code walkthroughs, comparison to Apollo computer and operating systems, etc.
4k video of the innards of the engineering model still present in the lab at JPL (I think they have one of those, right?)

They don't, this is why the recent fix took so long and was so risky, they were testing in production. They didn't make engineering models for that mission, the Voyagers were their own prototypes, which makes them more amazing.
- dylan604 2y agoEven more so seeing the recent indefinite delay of Starliner, again. The Voyager team(s) had 1 shot, similar to JWST, to get it right. They did it twice. All of these kinds of examples make it that much more insulting that Starliner is such rubish.
