In this image from February 1966, mathematician Daniel G. Nichols, who worked in the Real-Time Program Development Branch, Mission Planning and Analysis Division, is photographed at NASA’s Manned Space Center (now the Johnson Space Center) in Houston. Nichols worked for the agency more than 25 years, including in mission control during the Apollo Program.
According to a 1963 press release, Nichols’ “extensive knowledge of digital computers is responsible for his position as coordinator between Flight Operations Division and IBM in implementing the Real Time Computer Complex.”

在这张1966年2月的照片中,在任务规划和分析部实时程序开发部门工作的数学家丹尼尔·G·尼科尔斯在休斯顿的NASA载人航天中心(现为约翰逊航天中心)拍摄。尼科尔斯在该机构工作了超过25年,包括在阿波罗计划期间的任务控制。
根据1963年的新闻稿,尼科尔斯“对数字计算机的广泛了解是他在实施实时计算机综合体方面担任飞行运营部门和IBM之间的协调员的原因”。
