I see.

"Later we fixed Space Travel so it would run under (PDP-7) Unix instead of
standalone, and did also a very faithful copy of the Spacewar game originally
done (I think) at MIT on the PDP-1, but that was a different game."

But then there are quite a few articles on the Internet, which say that Unix
is here thanks to Ken wanting to play Space War on Programmed Data
Processor-7.
