These have got to be the most epic lines of code of all time—from THE_LUNAR_LANDING.s:

If I had this source code in 1969, can I invade it?

Hum... I really think the difficult part was the network.. Anyway, they were in earth all the time .

Hi,

I'd like to be able to land apollo-11 on my dev machine, or even autoscale it in production. Docker would really help with that. What would it take to run Apollo-11 in a container?

Mr. Kubrik pointed out that the external temperature gauge is showing the temperature for the sound stage.

Would be nice to have more unit tests.

Also seeing code with "guess" and "hopefully" in the comments doesn't inspire much confidence. Will this code run???? Noticed there's some lunar landing code. A bit ambitious aren't we?

It would be nice to cover the source code by tests, unless, you guys, are brave enough to test it directly on production after the release.

Btw, I've seen tests of the Soviet "Soyuz 19" and it covers 146% of the code.

This will greatly reduce power usage and greatly improve performance on malfunctioning hardware.

I would like to propose a complete rewrite of the core systems in C or Rust for the sake of it .

One small scoop for man, freeze dried when not on land... ?

Mission abort!

Major bug causing crash in version 13. Please apply patch to 11 as well.

Just curious, is it possible to try and approximate the original authors and commit dates using things like GIT_AUTHOR_NAME and so forth. And possibly using tags to note how the code looked at each launch. I'm not clear on what data on this might be available.

I tried cloning the source and building on Windows 10 but I couldn't get it to work. Am I missing any dependencies or utilities?

So here's the deal. I was just reading your source code, lots of typos by the way, and I realised that it doesn't come as a composer package.
Now I'm a practical man and I'm gonna send Apollo to the moon with my next laravel-based start-up, but in order to do that, I have to be able to get this ... thing as a composer package. So just ... do that.

P.S: An artisan generator would be nice.

It's very disturbing to be able to see all the source code completely exposed in the top-level directory.

Suggest restructuring the code to follow modern best practices of hierarchical/modular folder and file organization, such as this prime example.

Because Python is good!

please remove all references to "burning babies" in BURN_BABY_BURN--MASTER_IGNITION_ROUTINE.s , it is hurtful and I do not think it is good for our image

My first user had a Program Alarm 1202 during a descent phase. He was advised to ignore the alarm by Management. Then he had a 1201 alarm. This repeated several times.

My user managed to complete their objectives but is concerned about these alarms. Maybe it would be better to make them warnings...? Or just suppress completely...? Descent phase can be stressful for some users and it would reduce user workload.

I opened my shell and entered the following command:

npm install Apollo-11

and it told me this:

npm ERR! 404 'Apollo-11' is not in the npm registry. npm ERR! 404 You should bug the author to publish it (or use the name yourself!)

The AGC reboots with a program code 1201 and 1202 ("Executive overflow") during landing phase if the rendezvous radar switch it set to AUTO (as suggested in procedure book) and the DELTAH command (1668) is initiated on the DSKY. Bales in Guidance and Garman say it is ok to land with this error, but flight is still concerned about it and the alarms might distract the crew.

Found in production with version 12.X, Service Module (SM) fuel cells. Customer support (EECOM) suggested workaround of SCE to Aux resolved the issue, enabling systems to function normally under low voltage.

Recovery from such situations should be automated as a steely-eye'd missile man man not always be available on the helpline..

Hi, I've been looking at your source code and it seems awfully similar to the source used in Germany's V2 project. Any reason why?

There doesn't appear to be any tests included with this software. Over time as requirements change there's a risk of catastrophic failure after a couple of versions if there aren't regression tests to catch any minor oversights. The lack of systematic automated testing also makes it more difficult for any of the "rewrite in language x" proposals to be successful.

Since it's hosted on GitHub, I recommend setting up some simple tests to run with Travis.

It seems that there is a simulator available, i have just tested it locally, perhaps it could do the job

https://github.com/Schweigi/assembler-simulator

if someone can start to code it it will be really appreciated

Any ideas?

Brainf*** is easier to understand than assembly, and much better than Python, C, or Rust.

Would this project be interested in moving to Rust? It's the perfect language for such a mission critical software.

The issue tracker for this repository should be disabled.

I just did some automatic checking without any real understanding so far, but:

Is this Space between 2DNADR and TCDH correct? It looks like it should be a Tab.

A customer has had a fairly serious problem with stirring the cryogenic tanks with a circuit fault present. To reproduce:

1. Build CSM
2. Perform mission up to translunar coast
3. During translunar coast, attempt to stir cryo tanks

If a wiring fault exists, the issue may be replicated. Be aware that this may be hazardous to the tester attempting it.

Problem/Motivation

Margaret Hamilton's daughter was playing in the simulator command module and somehow ran the P01 prelaunch program during simulated flight and crashed the entire system.

Proposed resolution

Add error handling and validation because humans make mistakes and lie #9. Although this issue was brought to the attention of higher ups at NASA, astronaut Jim Lovell selected P01 in flight during the Apollo 8 mission crashing the entire system.

While we are adding error handling we should also implement asynchronous programming and priority scheduling to prevent the system from crashing during mission critical tasks.

So that I can integrate into my Angular 2 application.

I just ask if it's possible to link those images in a modern approach like in a jsfiddle.net with some javascript

I've sent a pull request for an extension to pick up Matt Damon. Please review ASAP: #54

Stumbled across this via Twitter. I see all the recent issues/pull requests are jokes but what is this actually? The README file mentions "Virtual AGC and MIT" but there's no links. I've never even heard of a .s file before. Does MIT have an Apollo emulator or something?

This repository contains both the AGC source code for the Apollo 11 Lunar Module (Luminary099) and Command Module (Comanche055). Both AGC versions have a similar program structure, but the programs are not identical. As an example, the file P20-P25.s in this repository is from Comanche055, but the file P20-P25.s for Luminary099 is missing. If you compare the two files:

Comanche055: http://www.ibiblio.org/apollo/listings/Comanche055/P20-P25.agc.html
Luminary099: http://www.ibiblio.org/apollo/listings/Luminary099/P20-P25.agc.html

you will easily find many differences.

I see many requests to rewrite this program in different languages. However, the most popular language is still missing. Please, use Chinese.

The original project does not seem to be actively maintained by its creators. I could not find any indication of the code being used or updated since 1972. (Ok, some people doubt that it has ever been used, since the whole thing was staged.)

May I suggest that we fork the project as a community effort? Maybe we can get it back up and running.

Its an open source flight sim..

And indeed an interesting model was the Shuttle..

Think that flightgear and this project could integrate..

Same stuff about "physics" et all..

I hereby request help with creating a Python fork to run this on a Raspberry Pi 2... Maybe a Raspberry Pi 3.

Currently, I feel some interactions are not properly separated from their underlying datastructure. Maybe use React & Flux?

We could at least render templates server-side, if any updates are included just create a tutorial balloon above the input element for the pilots.

Our users have stated they would like a new UI. Our UI designers have looked into this request and have made a mockup.

Feedback is required before implementing.

Can we have budgie-desktop ported for the project? it also have Raven Sidebar . Tha means more wings to help it fly to the outerspace while reducing fuel consumption. Thanks

The internal computation is carried out in meters/kilos/newtons, but the input and display routines are all in feet/pounds/pounds. This could lead to a Mars Climate Orbiter type failure if the conversion function is omitted or applied in the incorrect direction. Ideally the astronauts would be trained to use the Metric system, which might be less error prone than redoing all calculations with antiquated units.
