An agriculture professor at the University of Georgia, James L.
Carmon, talked his school into buying the costliest computer in
existence in 1964 -- and it helped put a man on the moon. The
computer was $3 million when the school purchased it. It’s now
worth $25 million. Carmon's daughter, Lee, talked about her
father's work. Atlanta Journal-Constitution writer Bo Emerson
joined her on On Second Thought to talk about how the computer
influenced the space race.
