Virtual AGC
The Virtual AGC code simulates the hardware of the real Apollo Guidance Computer, and can run the same software as was used on a real Apollo mission.
The Virtual AGC or vAGC uses software that is believed to have flown on actual missions. Most missions in Project Apollo use Colossus 1A (rev249) otherwise known as Colossus249. It is believed that this software was used for the Apollo 9 mission.
