Is the Space Station running Windows?
 
HOUSTON (Reuters) - Spacewalking astronauts aim to repair a damaged thermal blanket on the space shuttle Atlantis on Friday as U.S. and Russian controllers struggle with a worrying computer failure on the International Space Station.


I wonder how old the hardware is up there? Scarey business.

Yep. "Icey Blue Screen of Death."

It's old Russian stuff, probably with its roots in the Soviet era.

Therefore: Red Screen Of Death. Or possibly the Iron Curtain Of Death. (redundant?)

I think I read or saw something that indicated that NASA was still using DOS.

Perhaps not ... Penguins in Space?
