Apollo Guidance Computer Part 21: Playing moon landing on our restored AGC!

The repaired AGC should provide us with 1960's best real life video game ever. Thanks to our improvised PIPA accelerometer, we can now trick the AGC into thinking it's flying a LM. We fly through the whole landing sequence: program P63, braking, P64 approach, and P65 landing. We don't quite fly it in a closed loop as intended, and the landing is soft only in one direction, but that is the hell of a video game.
