TheJupiter project was to be a new high-end model ofDigital Equipment Corporation (DEC)'sPDP-10 mainframe computers. This project was cancelled in 1983, as the PDP-10 was increasingly eclipsed by theVAX supermini machines (descendants of thePDP-11).DEC recognized then that the PDP-10 and VAX product lines were competing with each other and decided to concentrate its software development effort on the more profitable VAX. The PDP-10 was finally dropped from DEC's line in 1983, following the failure of the Jupiter Project at DEC to build a viable new model.[1]
