[$] A discussion on Linux in space

There was something of a space theme that pervaded the Embedded LinuxConference (ELC) portion of the 2023 EmbeddedOpen Source Summit (EOSS), which is an umbrella event for varioussub-conferences related to embedded open-source development. That maypartly be because one of the organizers of EOSS (and ELC), Tim Bird,described himself as "a bit of a space junkie"; he made that observationduring a panel session that he led on embedded Linux in space. Bird andfour panelists discussed various aspects of the use of Linux inspace-related systems, including where it has been used, thecharacteristics and challenges of aerospace deployments, certification ofLinux for aerospace use, and more.
