You mean like the Voyager probes?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_program Almost 50 years old now, and still sending data. What would I change about software development now to program like they did 50 years ago? I would program like they programmed 50 years ago: assume it has to work. Assume updates will be risky and expensive. Build in failsafes and watchdogs and redundancy. Be able to replicate the build every year for 50 years. Train people to know what the logs really mean, every year for 50 years. And launch it before the bike shedding can begin! |
