When the Apollo astronauts learned that they might need to repair the computer if it breaks they joked they might as well learn brain surgery if they end up needing that too.

(This was when they planned on sending a modular computer with them. In the end they settled for sending up a fully assembled spare computer instead, which made replacement easier.)
