How many lines of code are used in SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket software?
About 500,000
Background
The SpaceX Falcon 9 software has around 500,000 lines of code. That is surprisingly little for a real space rocket. Windows 10 has over one hundred times more code inside. Yet the Falcon 9 still lands safely on a floating ship at sea.
