UNIVAC 494 computer operators at NASA, 1960s. The computer model being used here by NASA is the UNIVAC 494, an improved version of the UNIVAC 490. The UNIVAC 490 was used by organisations such as NASA, the US Air Force, and several major US industrial companies. UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer) was a series of computers built from 1951 onwards, with UNIVAC models demonstrating key advances in computing made in the 1950s and 1960s. The name UNIVAC was used by a number of computing companies. This photograph is from the UNIVAC Division of the Sperry Rand Corporation. The use of the name UNIVAC was discontinued in the 1980s.
