For stack machine, RTX2010 comes to mind. It's a radiation-hardened processor used in various spaceships.

Neat, I didn't know about this chip. Is there anything particular about a stack architecture that makes it ideal for radhard applications, or is it just the one they selected because they wanted to use Forth?

It's mostly about convenience. Hubble uses a radiation hardened 486 instead of those.

Also, the INMOS Transputer. It's a seriously odd but inspired architecture. Didn't scale in performance. Had some really interesting ideas in its ISA and interprocessor communication system.
