Source Code

These source-code files are part of a reconstructed copy of Luminary 163, the first (unflown) release of the Apollo 14 Lunar Module (LM) Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) software.

The reconstruction began with reconstructed source code for Luminary 173. Changes between revision 163 and 173 were backed out, as described by Luminary memos 157 and 158. The reconstruction was verified by matching memory-bank checksums to those listed in drawing 2021152N. Note that page numbers in the reconstructed code match those for the baseline log section mentioned in each file's changelog; the page numbers for a real Luminary 163 listing would be different.

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.
