  1. Good thing he had a 'gut feeling' about software control and that even if written correctly (the odds are against the programmer) how the hardware is engineered can trick the software Example Boeing 737- MAX. Good software analysts, post production will still ask, Is this answer reasonable? We all know what can happen if you just trust the computer and so did Stanislav Petrov. I'm not sure he was << a simple man who believed in the common good>> as an experienced engineer who thought: No, 5 is not a reasonable result, This is a bug and a false alarm. Did he save the world, Hell Yeah!

  2. And only maybe 20 people knew --- this is a guess of how many people were aware of the alarm.

  5. Well this was during the period of Kremlin funerals, Nobody stayed in charge long enough to do any thing about this guy ;) Yuri just died, who is in charge Now? I'm not sure if Constantine Chernyenko was out of the hospital for enough days to ever even hear about Stanislav Petrov. Looks like he had good timing to get punished.

  6.  @user-yp7be3vz2e  It might be a thing but there may not be any planet left to reincarnate upon, that's why I want to be cremated, Of course if the bombs flew - vaporized. I mean what's the punishment of sending me to a place where I'm going to burn till the end of time if I'm already ashes. You just better hope, because all the other options are gone you don't get reincarnated into heaven where you and the snake handlers & street preachers with huge boom boxes can hang out together, till the end of time.
