Notes:

An explanation of its operation can be found in this Wikipedia core store article .
Core memory is non-volatile storage—it can retain its contents indefinitely without power. It is also relatively unaffected by EMP and radiation. These were important advantages for military platforms. However, at present we do not know what this Circuit Module was used on.
