The five general purpose computers (GPCs) on the space shuttle only have about 1 megabyte of memory. Although 1 megabyte might not seem like much by today's standards, the computers run very efficiently. Because the space shuttle's computers do not require a complex graphic interface or any of the many games and programs on a home computer, 1 megabyte is all that is required. All the computer does is process raw data from the shuttle's sensors, and coordinate the shuttle's functions.
