Source Code
These source-code files are part of a reconstructed copy of Comanche 51, the
initial release (though not the final mission release) of the Apollo 11
Command Module (CM) Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) software. The flown, final
release was Comanche 55. The reconstruction is believed to be exactly accurate,
but in the absence of an actual Apollo-era listing of Comanche 51, some
explanation of the reconstruction process is needed to insure confidence in
that accuracy.
The starting point was the source code of Comanche 55, whose original source code is available. Comanche 55 source code was then modified by undoing changes known to have been made between revisions 51 and 55. The most-significant steps involved reverting changes related to the R-2 lunar potential model, the details of which were known from the previous, separate, independent reconstruction of the Apollo 10 Lunar Module software Luminary 69/2. The now-reconstructed Comanche 51 source code was verified by assembling it and checking that the assembled code had the expected known-correct memory-bank checksums. Note that page numbers in the reconstructed code match those on the Comanche 55 or Luminary 69 printouts, although the source code would likely have different page numbers in a contemporary Comanche 51 listing. Annotations that were not present in the contemporary source code have been added to the reconstructed code to justify each change relative to Comanche 55. Here's a guide to some of the Apollo documentation relevant to those annotations:
Comments expected to have been present in the original source code are prefixed with a single '#' symbol, whereas comments added later are prefixed by "##" or "###". Report any errors noted by creating an issue report at the Virtual AGC Project's GitHub repository. |

063135,000009: ## has been adapted such that the resulting bugger words
