A hazardous descent on the moon in Apollo 14
In this video, I analyze the code which allows the AGC to process an abort; I show that this program is full of useless instructions, and even contains illegal instructions.
Moreover, all this program does is to switch from the descent program to the ascent program, it does not prevent the separation of stages from being done, for in fact the ABORT STAGE button directly triggers the separation of stages, without the AGC having any way to prevent it.
And, if the AGC does not switch to the ascent program when the separation is done, it makes things still worse instead of making them better, for the ascent stage cannot be maneuvered if it is controlled with the descent program.
