A worldwide network of satellite dishes connected to a building full of computers. The guidance was done from earth and verified by the crew using the same kind of sextants that had been used for thousands of years by sailors navigating the world's oceans. The astronaut took a reading on 3 or 4 different stars and punched their coordinates into a verty small computer which told them where they were in space.
True or false the first computers to use the integrated circuit were known as third-generation computers?
