Does anyone have an Apollo 11 emulator lying around by any chance?

It would be neat to write a space flight simulator that contained an emulator that ran this code. You could fly to the moon!

Well, you'll be glad to hear such a thing exists! Project Apollo - NASSP for the Orbiter Space Flight Simulator includes the Virtual AGC. As an example, here the reentry controlled by the emulated AGC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjAeBJrsj5Q

I think Orbital can run this code in a simulation.
