Stack of Code

Since the early 2020s a picture of Hamilton next to a stack of code has circulated widely online. The picture is often accompanied by erroneous captions that claim that this was a single listing of the code used to send men to the Moon and that she wrote the code alone. These claims are false.

Many listings were stacks on top of one another to reach her height.[1] The code was written by her and the team she led and only involved one particular part of flight software.
