- At MIT, she led the team that developed onboard software for crewed Apollo missions.
- She joined MIT’s Instrumentation Lab in the mid-1960s and became an assistant director there by 1968.
- In 2016, President Barack Obama awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the United States’ highest civilian honor.
- According to MIT News, she worked at the Instrumentation Lab into the 1970s, then founded two software companies.
To say Margaret Hamilton was a pioneer — to say she was ahead of her time — would be a dramatic understatement.— Olivier de Weck, the Apollo program professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and interim head of its aeronautics and astronautics department, told MIT News.
