Apollo Guidance Computer Shrunk to the Size of an Apple Watch

British startup Apollo Instruments has created a wristwatch, the DSKY Moonwatch, that replicates the interface of the Apollo Guidance Computer. Using original MIT design specs, they shrunk the briefcase-sized computer down to a wearable device. While it doesn't offer navigation capabilities, it features a GPS, digital display, working keyboard, and is programmable via Arduino and Python. Priced at £649, it's a novelty item with expandable functionality, making it a unique conversation starter for tech enthusiasts.
