Interesting fact is voyager both 1 & 2 using less than 1 mega byte of ram
Much less than 1mb. Something like 69 kB.
The ram only holds the programs which are written in Fortran and assembly. The images and other data are stored on tape.
Another interesting fact is that the computer holds the record for being the longest running computer of all time.
