## Copyright:   Public domain.
## Filename:    GIMBAL_LOCK_AVOIDANCE.agc
## Purpose:     A section of Luminary revision 178.
##              It is part of the reconstructed source code for the final
##              release of the flight software for the Lunar Module's
##              (LM) Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) for Apollo 14. The
##              code has been recreated from copies of Zerlina 56, Luminary
##              210, and Luminary 131, as well as many Luminary memos.
##              It has been adapted such that the resulting bugger words
##              exactly match those specified for Luminary 178 in NASA
##              drawing 2021152N, which gives relatively high confidence
##              that the reconstruction is correct.
