Spacelog Apollo 11

Oh, Just fine. How's the old White Team today?

Oh, the old White Team's bright-eyed and bushytailed. We're ever alert down here.

Ever alert and … Hey, you got any medics down there watching high grade? I'm trying to do some running in place down here, and I'm wondering just out of curiosity whether it brings my heart rate up.

Well, they will spring into action here momentarily. Stand by.

Hello, 11. We see your heart beating.

Okay, Well—look at the CDR's and the CMP's and see if they go up any. We're all running in place up here. You wouldn't believe it.

I'd like to see that sight. Why don't you give us a TV picture of that one.

I think Buzz is trying. You got it.

Okay. It's coming in at Goldstone, Buzz. As Bruce, said, we don't have it here in the center.

I'm afraid this isn't going to help out the PTC very much.

Yes. I don't know if it's a vibration or what it is, but it makes the pitch and yaw rate needles on FDAI number 1 jump up and down a little bit where we jump up and down.

Roger. Goldstoners say they see you running there, Mike.

Okay.

Ask him what he's running from.

11, Houston. Mike, we see about a 96 heartbeat now.

Okay. Thank you.

Well, that's about all that is reasonable, without getting hot and sweaty.

Goldstone should be getting about the best picture of the Earth we can give them right now, Charlie.

Roger, Mike. Thank you much.

The TV people do not have access to NET 1 in that area. Suggest we use NET 2 For that purpose.

Okay. Going to NET 2.

Hello, Apollo 11. Houston. The Goldstone TV guys say they have some horizontal banding across the upper part of the picture and across the lower part. They would consider the lines just straight, no waviness to them at all. Over.

Roger. Understand. They do seem to distort vertical lines though.

Say again about the vertical lines, Buzz.

Roger. When there's a vertical line, these horizontal bands tend to put small waves in it.

Roger. I copy. He didn't mention that. Stand by, I'll check again.

Hello, 11. Houston. The Goldstone TV said that when you get a sharp vertical line on the picture, when the horizontal banding goes across, it does appear to bend it slightly. The same as Apollo 10, they said. Looks okay to them. Over.
