How about a few Milwakee-ans? Delco (AC Electronics at the time) built computer hardware for the Apollo program. The automotive electronics program started with many of the Apollo hardware folks from Milwakee. I've seen Apollo project reunions in our internal literature. The moon rover was built by GM, but I believe it was done in dude country (Southern California).
