Source Code
These source-code files are part of a reconstructed copy of Luminary 97, the
second release of the Apollo 11 Lunar Module (LM) Apollo Guidance Computer
(AGC) software. It was created to fix two incorrect ephemeris constants in
Luminary 96, as described by anomaly report LNY-59.
The reconstruction began with source code of Luminary 99 revision 1 previously transcribed from a digitized copy of that program. The code was then updated by undoing changes described in original Luminary memos 83 and 85, using asterisks indicating changed lines in the listing as a guide. The reconstruction was verified by matching memory-bank checksums to those listed in drawing 2021152D. Note that page numbers in the reconstructed code match those on the Luminary 099 revision 001 printout, although the added code would likely have changed page numbers for a real Luminary 97 listing. Comments from 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. |

014965,000005: ## It is part of the reconstructed source code for the
014966,000006: ## second release of the flight software for the Lunar
014967,000007: ## Module's (LM) Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) for Apollo 11.
014968,000008: ## It was created to fix two incorrect ephemeris constants in

014970,000010: ## The code has been recreated from a copy of Luminary 99
014971,000011: ## revision 001, using asterisks indicating changed lines in
014972,000012: ## the listing and Luminary Memos #83 and #85, which list
014973,000013: ## changes between Luminary 97 and 98, and 98 and 99. The
014974,000014: ## code has been adapted such that the resulting bugger words
014975,000015: ## exactly match those specified for Luminary 97 in NASA drawing
014976,000016: ## 2021152D, which gives relatively high confidence that the
014977,000017: ## reconstruction is correct.
