Abstract

Linux is everywhere, even in space... One of the harshest environments we subject software and hardware to. Radiation upsets, wild temperature swings, long communication delays or interruptions, and critical power management constraints. Linux, and open source are thriving in space, but have you ever seen a pull request from SpaceX? Come and find out why not, and what we as the open source community can do to change this.
