All the recent Starship and Space Launch System tests have gotten techies pretty excited. The most powerful rockets ever to take flight are certainly going to capture their attention. Even so, these modern creations still haven’t surpassed the cool factor of the Apollo missions. They may be nearly 60 years in the past, but we still haven’t matched the feat of sending people to the Moon since that time.

For this reason, people love to dive into every little detail associated with the Apollo missions. For instance, a hardware hacker named Michael spent the past several months painstakingly creating a near-perfect replica of the Apollo Display Keyboard (DSKY) that served as an interface between the Apollo astronauts and the computers located in the Command and Lunar Modules. He’s also made all of his work public so that you can build your own — and since this DSKY is powered by...
