The primary goals of the Apollo program were to beat the Soviet Union to the Moon and establish American superiority in space. The three astronauts of Apollo 1, Virgil Grissom, Edward Higgins, and Roger Chaffee, tragically died in a pre-flight fire in their command module during a test on January 27, 1967, just weeks before their planned launch. The investigation into the fire led to improvements before subsequent Apollo missions.

Each muse then represented and inspired a different art form - Calliope represented epic poetry, Clio represented history, and the others represented various musical arts, types of poetry, and astronomy. The document provides portraits for each muse describing what art they inspired and how they were often depicted.
Apollo's story
Apollo was the Greek god of the sun, music, medicine, prophecy, reason, and intelligence. He was the son of Zeus and Leda and twin brother of Artemis. Apollo was associated with prophecies from the Delphic oracle and the laurel tree. He had few children but many romantic encounters. Apollo was handsome with curly golden hair. His symbols included the sun, lyre, bow and arrow. He was creative and supportive of the arts but also enjoyed nymphs and youths. Apollo was born on the island of Delos and had no official spouse, though he had several lovers.

Charybdis was originally a naiad, the daughter of Poseidon and Gaia, but was transformed into a sea monster with a huge mouth and flippers for arms that would swallow water three times a day and belch it back out as whirlpools. She lived across a narrow strait from another sea monster, Scylla, making passage between them dangerous for sailors who had to choose whether to risk Charybdis' whirlpools or Scylla's attacks, giving rise to the phrase "between a rock and a hard place."

However, he failed to check under the sheep, and Odysseus and his men escaped that way.

The Trojan Horse-Samantha Bullinger
The Greeks devised a plan to enter the walled city of Troy using a large hollow wooden horse. They hid soldiers inside the horse and left it at the gates of Troy as the Greeks pretended to sail away. The Trojans brought the horse into their city believing it was a gift. That night, the Greek soldiers emerged from the horse and opened the city gates, allowing the rest of the Greek army to enter and burn Troy to the ground, ending the long Trojan War.
Gabbi Valle Laertes.
Laertes was the father of Odysseus, king of Ithaca. He willingly forgave his wife Anticlea and raised Odysseus as a good father.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
