Apollo Guidance Computer Part 23: Flying Apollo 11 moon landings with the AGC

We reenact Apollo 11 landings to a high degree of fidelity, with the simulated LM guided by a real AGC running the original Apollo 11 flight software. Mike has hooked the AGC to a LM simulation from the Orbiter, NASSP program, which is a very accurate simulation. Just as back then, it still requires quite a bit of piloting skill and nerves of steel. Two landings in this video: the first one is a nominal Apollo landing to explain things. The second one is a hair raising Apollo 11 reenactment landing with 1202 errors and the actual Apollo astronauts calls from the radio recordings weaved in. Seat back and enjoy the show. 0:00 Not a game, but actual Apollo 11 binary code running on Apollo Computer hardware in FPGA 2:11 Nominal LM landing (how it was supposed to happen) 18:35 Apollo 11 actual landing (with 1202 errors and air to ground calls) 38:26 Liftoff from the Moon using the abort mode Here is a link to the installation instructions of the unmodified Orbiter, NASSP software, which flies using an AGC emu
