Spacelog Apollo 11

Roger. Stars—Codes are stars 26, 30, and 24. Over.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We notice your PROGRAM ALARM, Mike, was due to using these stars in the P23 attitude. If you'll go to 000, the stars we gave you will work. Over.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. Prior to you starting your P52, we'd like to give you a new CSM state vector. Over.

Roger. Wait till we finish the maneuver and we'll give you the DSKY.

Houston, Apollo 11. The DSKY is yours.

Apollo 11, Houston. Go ahead. Over.

Roger. The DSKY is yours.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. You can do the VERB 66. The computer is yours, and then the P52, option 1 preferred. Over.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. If you read, this attitude 000 is pretty bad for our COMM. In fact, we've lost all data with you, and unreadable on the voice. We recommend you do the P52, option 1 preferred …

… not a very good attitude at all for COMM, and as soon as we finish our alignment, we'll maneuver it to a different attitude. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11. Over.

Roger, 11. You're about one-by. Go ahead.

Apollo 11, Houston. You're about one-by. Go ahead. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11. Over.

Roger, 11. Read you about four-by. How me? Over.

You're loud and clear, Charlie. We pitched down some to get a better COMM attitude.

Roger. Did you copy our recommendation on proceeding with the P52, Mike? Over.

Negative. We didn't. I've got that in work. I'm starting on P52.

Houston, Apollo 11.

Go ahead, 11. Over.

Roger. Copy our torquing angles. We're about to torque them.

Roger. Stand by.

Roger. The reason for delay, Charlie, is that—difficult to find two stars that are not occulted by the LM and also are not in the midst of a manmade star field up here with dumps.

Roger. We copy.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. You can torque the NOUN 93. Over.

Okay, Houston. That completes the P52. We verified the third star with Antares, and AUTO optics are pointing at it pretty closely. How do our platform drift angles look so far, Charlie?

Stand by.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We didn't have a chance to get a good check for you. We're going to run a drift check from this alignment until the next one, approximately 12 hours, and we'll have something for you later. Over.

Okay.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We'd like you to establish your PTC. We recommend you select quads Alfa and Delta. Over.

Roger. Understand. Alfa and Delta quads.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. Would you verify that the ATTITUDE SET switch is in GDC? Over.

The SET switch. Stand by one, Charlie.

Roger.

It is now.

Roger. It was on IMU.

That's affirmative.

Houston, Apollo 11. How many miles out do you have us now?

We have you—Stand by, Buzz. Roughly about 50,000. Stand by.
