Source Code
This is an attempt to recreate Luminary 99 Rev 2, otherwise known as LUM99R2, from Luminary 99 Rev 1 and ephemeris data from Luminary 116. The differences are confined to the last 10-12 lines of the CONTROLLED CONSTANTS. Luminary 99 Rev 1 source-code was transcribed from a printout in the MIT Museum, while Luminary 116 source code was transcribed from a printout belonging to Don Eyles. AGC developer James Kernan, the "rope mother" for the Apollo 11 Lunar Module's AGC, explains as follows: "At the last minute, Dan Lickly, our chief engineer, appeared with ephemerides updates and it took two tries to get it right. The result was that we created Lum99 Revision 1 and Lum99 Revision 2." It is suspected that the former is what's in the MIT Museum, and the latter is what we are trying to recreate here. As for which revision actually flew in Apollo 11, all of the other available surviving evidence points to Rev 1 rather than to Rev 2, so we're just not sure! |
