For background on how actual Space Shuttle flight control software was written I recommend reading the "NASA Manager's Handbook for Software Development". It contains some great guidelines for writing safety-critical software. AFAIK, no Space Shuttle mission ever suffered a serious safety incident due to a software defect.

Thank you for the link. Could people who have studied it answer whether it is similar to the code here?
