Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. Our NOUN 49 is reading: register 1, plus 08793; register 2, all balls.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

11, Houston. Guidance is looking at the NOUN 40—49 stuff. We'll be back with you momentarily. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay, Charlie. Thank you. We'll just hold right here in the program.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We got the downlink now. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We'd like you to reject the NOUN 49 stuff on the DSKY right now, Mike, and try it again. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay, Houston. Apollo 11. Here's another 49 for you. Are you getting it on the downlink?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We see it. Stand by.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We recommend you accept the NOUN 49 display on the DSKY now. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay. It looks like an awful big one. We noticed that you'd moved star number 2 to the tail end of the listing, and we should be marking first on star 40. Did that have anything to do with it?

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Negative. We don't believe so, Apollo 11. We think that this is possibly due to some TLI dispersions, and it's probably satisfactory. So go ahead and accept this. It fits our criteria anyway that if you repeat the mark and you get an equivalent size to go ahead and accept it. And this is an equivalent size error. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

And 11, Houston. Your state vector in the LM slots are—is good. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. If you like this, we'll accept it as well.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We recommend you accept the NOUN 49. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Okay, Charlie. Thank you. We'll do that now.

Michael Collins (CMP)

And we're going to proceed on this one, too, Charlie.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. Another NOUN 49 for you.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We copy. Stand by.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We'd like you to recycle and do this one over again. Over.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Go ahead, Apollo 11. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. Why don't you sing out when you think we've done enough battery charging on B.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We'll be charging battery B up until the sleep period. We'll discontinue charging at that time. Also, at about 12 25 in the flight plan, we have battery A charge. That has been deleted. Over.

Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Roger. Understand. We'll charge until the sleep period on B and delete the battery A charge.

Michael Collins (CMP)

And, Houston, Apollo 11. These AUTO optics maneuvers or P23's, AUTO maneuvers, don't seem to be going to the substellar point. Can you come up with the roll, pitch, and yaw angle for the substellar point on this star? It's our second star.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. Your angles in the flight plan we feel are still good, 198.6 130.7, 340.0. Just slightly off than those in the flight plan. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Charlie, state those three angles one more time. I'd like to confirm them before I maneuver.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. Roll and pitch are slightly off than what's in the flight plan, 11. Roll is now 198.6, pitch is 1307. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Roger. Roll 198.6, pitch 130.7, and yaw 34000.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. I think the problem here is that that attitude just is not too close to the substellar point. I'm having to maneuver quite a bit; and that's in progress now, so stand by for some marks.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Roger. We copy it all.

Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. We've run the angles given in the flight plan for the P23 attitude through the machines down here, and they come up the same thing every time. We think everything's going correctly, Mike, and we're wondering if the nonsymmetrical horizon might by giving a problem. Over.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Yes, I'd say—It could be, Charlie. Stand by here. We'll get another mark for you.

Michael Collins (CMP)

Houston, Apollo 11. NOUN 49 for you.
