Professor David Brailsford explains how Hamming codes detect and correct errors in data transmission.

What good is knowing you have a problem if you can't fix it? - Professor Brailsford explains Hamming Codes and how errors can not just be detected, but also corrected.

On “What computer and software is used by the Falcon 9?”

Here's a video from Computerphile about error correction. It should flesh out what /u/PizzaOnHerPants already responded with. link to this video

On “CS version of Neil Degrasse Tyson”

After stumbling upon a computerphile series where Professor David Brailsford is interviewed, I have to disagree. The consecutive talks about compression, entropy in compression, error correction,compression in text, and compression meets probability talk about a lot of fascinating complex topics. It at least entertained me the past half hour.
