Do you think it is an HP calc on this NASA engineer's table?

Yea !!

If anyone ever comes across a listing of the actual keystroke HP-65 programs that went into space with the calculator, please post them here. I've been trying to find those listings for at least a decade, without success. I even got through to Sol Liebergot, the member of Gene Kranz's White team who determined how serious the Apollo 13 problem was, and he couldn't find them either.

I have seen some NASA flight documentation from ASTP that mentions the HP-65 but it does not include any program documentation, unfortunately.

If anyone lives near Houston and has access to the Manned Spacecraft Center library, I'll bet those listings exist somewhere within that structure, but it would probably take a lot of digging to find them.
