A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

I don't know what I find more impressing. The 4kB of RAM from the moon mission in 1969 which worked back then or the 69kB of RAM from the Voyager mission in 1977 which still functions to this day!
Ima go with Voyager, because it was real science, versus (admittedly cool) mostly dick waving and missile development.
The engineering on the Apollo flights was much tougher because they had to keep the astronauts alive.
Valid point.
But in Voyager the computers and antennas had to survive the radiation of Jupyter (?).
