Apple on Mars? Well, somewhat. Read this article, "The CPU from Apple's iMac G3 is powering NASA's Perseverance rover." I once had a G3 and liked it. But it got too old and slow, and couldn't keep up with the times, so I had to move on. But, as the following article mentions, NASA is more interested in reliability than in speed, and this CPU apparently is quite reliable, especially for a technology that is 23 years old.

Can't imagine the technology it takes, though, to control and communicate with a mobile unit that is 139 million miles from earth.
