Spacelog Apollo 11

Roger. Houston, Apollo 11. We're standing by for a GO for sequence logic ON.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Go ahead and we'll watch you on TM.

Okay. Sequence logic, two of them. Sequence logic 1 and 2 coming up and ON.

Apollo 11, this Houston. You are GO for PYRO ARM.

Roger. Thank you.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. If you will give us P00 in ACCEPT, we have a state vector update for you.

Roger.

You have P00 in ACCEPT.

Roger. It will probably be another 10 or 15 seconds. We're going to go up through the Vanguard. When you are ready to copy, I have your TLI PAD.

Roger. Ready to copy TLI PAD.

Roger. TLI: 23514 179 071 001, burn time 547 104356 35575. Roll for SEP 357 107 041, 301 287 319. TLI 10-minute abort pitch, 223. Read back. Over.

Roger. TLI PAD: 23514 179 071 001 547 104356 35575 357 107 041 301 287 319. TLI 10-minute abort pitch, 223. Over.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Roger. Would you read back DELTA-VC prime again? You were cut out by some noise.

Okay. Roger. I'm picking up the squeal here, also. DELTA-VC 104356. Over.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Readback correct. Out.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. We've completed the uplink; the computer is yours. You can go back to BLOCK. Would you verify that you have extended the probe? Over.

Roger. That's verified; the probe is extended.

Roger. About 2 minutes to LOS on this stateside pass. AOS Canaries at 1 50 13. Over.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.

Roger. Houston, Apollo 11. Loud and clear.

Okay. On your service module RCS quad Bravo package temperature, we're showing it running a little low. Looks like about 20 degrees low—lower than the rest of the quads. Would you confirm that your RCS heater switch for quad Bravo is in PRIMARY? Over.

You're correct. It was not in PRIMARY. It was off. It's on now. Thank you.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11. Go ahead.

Roger. We've checked over the spacecraft and the launch vehicle guidance. They're both looking to be in good shape. We estimate you have better than a 99-percent probability of a guidance cut-off on the launch vehicle, so things are apparently holding in very well. For your information, MILA received approximately 1 minute of a usable TV picture, so apparently the system is working. And you're a little over a minute from LOS at Canary; AOS Tananarive is 2 hours 9 minutes and 18 seconds. Over.

Roger. We like those 99 numbers. Thank you.

Apollo 11, this is Houston through Tananarive. How do you read?

Apollo 11, this is Houston standing by through Tananarive.

Tananarive, Houston COMM TECH NET 1.

Tananarive, Houston COMM TECH NET 1.

Goddard voice, Houston COMM TECH NET 1.

Goddard voice, reading you loud and clear.

Roger. We cannot raise Tananarive.

Houston COMM TECH, Tananarive.

Roger, Tananarive. Are you receiving CAP COMM's voice, and are you uplinking it?

Negative.

Roger. Monitor again and I'll tell CAP COMM to make one more transmission.

Roger.

Apollo 11, Apollo 11, this is Houston standing by through Tananarive. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11 …

Roger. Reading you loud and clear.

Houston, Apollo 11. We have the PYRO's armed.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. One minute to LOS Tananarive; AOS at Carnarvon 02 25 30.

Apollo 11, this is Houston through Carnarvon. Radio check. Over.

Roger, Houston through Carnarvon. Apollo 11. Loud and clear.

Roger. You're coming in very loud and very clear, here. Out.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. You are GO for TLI. Over.

Apollo 11. Thank you.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.

Houston, 11.

Roger. We'll be coming within range of the ARIA aircraft coverage, here, in about 1 minute. They're going to try uplinking both on S-band and on VHF this time. So if you turn your—make sure your S-band volume is turned up, we'd appreciate it. And we believe that we'll have continuous coverage from now on through the TLI burn. Over.

Very good.

Apollo 11, Apollo 11, this is Houston through ARIA 4. Radio check. Over.

Houston, we read you strength 4 and a little scratchy.

Roger. We're reading you strength 5, readability about 3. Should be quite adequate.

Apollo 11, Apollo 11, this is Houston. We're reading you readability about 3, strength 5. Sounds pretty good. Over.

Apollo 11, this is Houston through ARIA 3. Radio check. Over.

Roger, Houston, Apollo 11. You are much clearer and adequately loud. Over.

Roger, 11, You are coming in five-by-five here. Beautiful signal.

This is a lot better than this static we had previously.

Okay.

And we got the time base fix indication on time.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. We just got telemetry back down on your booster, and it is looking good.

Roger. Everything looks good here.

Hey, Houston, Apollo 11. That Saturn gave us a magnificent ride.

Roger, 11. We'll pass that on. And, it certainly looks like you are well on your way now.

We have no complaints with any of the three stages on that ride. It was beautiful.

Roger. We copy. No transients at staging of any significance. Over.

That's right. It was all—all a good ride.

Houston. Roger. Out.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. For your information, we expect the maneuver to separation attitude to begin at 3 plus 05 plus 03, and to be completed at plus 09 plus 20. Separation at 3 plus 15 plus 00.

Roger. Time to begin maneuver is 3 05 03, complete 3 09 20. Separation 3 plus 15 00.

Roger. That separation should be 3 plus 15 03. My error in reading up.

Roger.

Apollo 11, this is Houston. All the booster functions are proceeding normally. The sequencing is in good shape, and it doesn't look like they are having any problems at all. Over.

Apollo 11, Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over.
