Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Tranquility Base, this is Houston. Uplink complete. The computer's yours, and you can go out of DATA.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Go ahead. Tranquility Base, here.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. Just want to let you guys know that since you're an hour and a half over your timeline and we're all taking a day off tomorrow, we're going to leave you. See you later.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

I don't blame you a bit.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

That's a real great day, guys. I really enjoyed it.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Thank you. You couldn't have enjoyed it as much as we did.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Sure wish you'd hurry up and get that trash out out of there, though.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Yes. We're just about to do it.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Tranquility Base, this is Houston. We show the suit relief valve still in the AUTO position. It should be closed. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Columbia, this is Houston. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Columbia. Go ahead.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. We've successfully reacquired high gain antenna. Unless you have some other traffic with us, I guess we'll bid you a good night and let you get some sleep, Mike. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

And we're going to power down the voice subcarrier part of our uplink to you in order that we don't disturb you while we're talking to Tranquility Base. If you need us, just give us a call, and we can respond with a time lag of about a minute to a minute and a half in setting reconfigured. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Good night, Bruce. Thanks a lot.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Columbia, Columbia, this is Houston. We'd like you to ENABLE the thrusters in Bravo 1 and Bravo 2, AUTO RCS SELECT. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. Bravo 1 and Bravo 2 ENABLE.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Tranquility, this is Houston. For a reference, which dump valve are you using? Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

We used the forward dump valve until about 2 psi, and we're using the overhead now.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

They're both—they're both open now.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

Houston, Tranquility Base. REPRESS complete.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger, Tranquility. We observed your equipment jettison on the TV, and the passive seismic experiment recorded shocks when each PLSS hit the surface. Over.

Neil Armstrong (CDR)

You can't get away with anything anymore, can you?

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Tranquility Base, this is Houston. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Roger. When you get back into your surface checklist and come over to the COMM reconfiguration on page Surface 45, we'd like you to enable the ranging feature on your S band. That is, when you come down to S band configuration, instead of CAUTION and WARNING ELECTRONICS, ENABLE TV, we'd like you to go into the RANGE position and leave it there for as long as you conveniently can until you get ready to commence your rest period; and we'll try to get a little more ranging data on you. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

And of course, when you get ready to turn in, go back into caution and warning, ENABLE, and we'd like to say from all of us down here in Houston and really from all of us in all the countries and in the entire world, we think that you've done a magnificent job up there today. Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Yes, indeed. Get some rest there and have at it tomorrow.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Houston, Tranquility. Did you all come up with any other solution that we might try to the mission timer problem? Over.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Stand by, Tranquility. We'll be back with you in just a minute.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

And, Houston, Tranquility. Have you had enough TV for today?

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Tranquility, this is Houston. Yes, indeed. It's been a mighty fine presentation there.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Okay. Signing off. See you again tomorrow.

Bruce McCandless (CAPCOM)

Columbia, Columbia, this is Houston. Over.
