Source Code
These source-code files derive from a printout of Luminary 116 (the Apollo 12
Lunar Module guidance computer program), from the personal library of
original AGC developer Don Eyles, digitally photographed at archive.org,
financially sponsored by Ron Burkey, and transcribed to source code by a
team of volunteers. This colorized, syntax-highlighted form was created
by assembling that transcribed source code. Note that the full page images
are available on the
Virtual AGC project page at archive.org, while reduced-size images
are presented at the VirtualAGC project website. Report or fix any
transcription errors at
the Virtual AGC project code repository. Notations on the program listing read, in part: GAP: ASSEMBLE REVISION 116 OF AGC PROGRAM LUMINARY BY NASA 2021112-071 19:09 AUG. 11,1969Note that the date is the date of the printout, not the date of the program revision. |
