Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We need AUTO, please, sir.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Roll zero, pitch 320, yaw zero?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Right now that's what we're looking at. Stand by. We might have you roll so we can keep the high gain. Stand by.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Columbia, Houston. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Oh, Roger, Apollo 11. We got you going to a posigrade attitude and we want you—this burn will be using minus X thrusters at about 2 or 3 feet per second, and we got a load for you. We'll send it up momentarily. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, Houston. Would you give us P00 and ACCEPT? We have a load for you. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger, Mike. And our pitch attitude's a little wrong here. If you're ready to copy, I'll give you the SEP PAD. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Go ahead. Ready to copy.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. Starting with NOUN 33: 130 30 0000, plus 00020, plus all zeros, plus all zeros. Roll all zeros, pitch 230, yaw zero. NOUN 44 is NA. DELTA-VP 00020, burn time 007, DELTA-VC 00020. We have—The rest of the PAD is NA.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Roger. GET 130 hours 30 minutes, DELTA-VX 2.0, roll zero, pitch 230, yaw zero, DELTA-VC, 2.0.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

That's affirmative, Apollo 11. And, Mike, it's similar to the SEP burn prior to flight after the undocking here. And the P41 you should see on register 1—2, and then you burn minus X until you read 4. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, Houston. Computer's yours. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Roger, Charlie. We switched our OMNI D—Delta, and I lost that last transmission. Would you say again, please? The thing I'm wondering about specifically is that earlier you said it would be minus X thrusters and the PAD indicates plus X. Do you want me to null that to zero or do you want to add 2 and leave it as a 4?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger, Apollo 11. The way we gave it to you in the attitude we're in, it'll be just like the SEP burn that you had yesterday. You'll see—NOUN 85 will give you a plus 2 and then you just burn minus X until you read 4. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, Houston. We see you in P41 now. It might take you a couple of minutes to integrate these vectors that we gave you and if you don't make TIG, it's pretty insensitive. You can just let P41 bring you up to TIG, and when you get to zero, you can burn on that. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. Burn complete. Residuals: plus three balls 40, plus four balls 7, plus four balls 2, DELTA-V counter 102.1. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Copy, Apollo 11. Looks good to us. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. How about coming up with a good communications attitude for us to go to between now and the time we maneuver at TEI attitude.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11, Houston. A couple of things for you. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Okay. Mike, you can maneuver to your preliminary TEI attitude as shown on page 398 of the flight plan, and the high gain angles are good as shown in the flight plan, and we'd like you to dump the waste water at 131 05 down to 10 percent. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. Understand. I'm going to go to roll 1.1, pitch zero—or 52.6, and yaw 13.8, and you want a waste water dump 10 percent starting at 131 05.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

That's affirmative. Right out the LOS.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Maneuver is in progress, Houston.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Apollo 11, Houston. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Apollo 11 under high gain. How do you read?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Five by, 11. How me? Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

You're loud and clear, Charlie. What—What numbers are you looking at for TEI TIG preliminary; 135 hours 23 minutes, something like that?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

That's affirmative, Mike. We're looking at about nominal time. We've considered kicking it up a REV, but we don't think this REV track is going to be any good since we had the RCS burn and we need some more tracking to get you a good TEI. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

That's what we're looking for.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. Looks like it's going to be pretty relaxed time here for the next couple of hours. We'll have you a PAD, of course, the next REV or so, and we'll keep you posted on TEI. Looks like nominal time. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

And your little maneuver back here a moment ago will put you about 20 miles ahead of the LM at TEI.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Imagine that place has cleared out a little bit after that rendezvous. You can find a place to sit down almost, huh?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. Our MOCR's about empty right now. We're taking it a little easy. How does it feel up there to have some company?

Michael Collins (CMP)

Damn good, I'll tell you.
