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.
