Source Code
These source-code files are part of a reconstructed copy of Skylark 048, the
Block II Command Module (CM) Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) software for the
Skylab-2, Skylab-3, Skylab-4, and Apollo-Soyuz Test Project missions.
They have been created via disassembly of binary dumps of the original core rope memory modules actually flown on Skylab-2, part numbers 2010802-541, 2010802-551, 2010802-561, 2010802-571, 2010802-581, and 2010802-591. Access to these modules was provided by the New Mexico Museum of Space History, who we are much indebted to. The source code for the Apollo 15, 16, and 17 software, Artemis 072, was used as a starting point. Heavy use was made of TRW 4900.5-244, Programmed Guidance Equations for Skylark Command Module Earth Orbital Program, dated 14 February 1972. This document contains pseudocode of essentially all of Skylark, using original program labels which have been copied for this source reconstruction. Since only binary dumps (rather than listings) of Skylark are available as source material, all comments and labels are approximate. They have been taken from the Programmed Guidance Equations or other AGC programs where possible, or, in some places, written from scratch to match what we believe would have been in the original listing. |
