Spacelog Apollo 11

That's affirmative. This attitude put both windows right toward the Sun—or the LM. Over.

Well, that may be good in some respects, but -

We had a view, Buzz, of the utility light cord. …

Now let me show you a view looking the other way.

Roger. And we see right now the utility light or either the floodlight up there.

I think now I see the utility light still in the stowage bag. Hey, that's a great shot right there. We see you in there. Guess that's Neil and Mike. Better be, anyway.

We see you waving.

11, Houston. That's really a beautiful shot.

11, Houston. We didn't quite decipher that signal that just came from the CMP.

Just saying hello. On the LCG sight gage, you got about—oh, it looks like the white mark that's in the plunger is about a quarter to three-eighths inch out into the green away from the red. Is that what you'd like to see? Over.

Stand by. Roger, Buzz. That looks good to us. Thank you much.

It is the white index, is it not, that you're interested in comparing whether it's in the red or green?

Stand by. That's affirmative, Buzz. It looks good. That's a good reading for us. Over.

Okay.

We had a shot moment—a moment ago of the suit disconnect valve.

I'll open up the windows and see what the lighting condition's going to be like.

11, Houston. That's a real good view we have of the AOT. You're back now, Buzz, and notice you're taking down one of the window shades. Over.

The light is superb.

How's the Sun coming in? How's the Sun coming in from this direction going to affect what you can see?

It made it really super. The lighting is excellent in the—in the LM right now. We can make out the AOT, the ISA, and the left-hand window—there's a little glare off of that, but the LMP side the—with the shade down it's really excellent. Over.

Well, let's—I'm turned around, why I took the shade off my side first.

Roger. We copy. The light level for the TV is really excellent. Over.

Yes, the lighting in the LM is very nice now, just like completely daylight; and everything is visible. A good bit lighter than the tunnel was earlier.

Roger. We got a good view now, Neil, of the DEDA; and also Buzz's ACA.

Hey, I'm pointing it at the front hatch now. Everything seems to be in place down there.

Roger, we got the dump valves in view. Over.

Roger.

11, Houston. We see you removing the ISA now, folding it up, putting it up on the AOT. The instrument panels are coming into view behind.

Yes, I think it'd probably be best, since we've done SPS burn, to put it back over the instrument panel instead of putting it up over the PLSS on the recharge station. Would you care to comment on that one? We could do either just as easily.

Stand by. We'll have an answer for you momentarily.

11, Houston. That's really a super shot of the main display.

The vehicle is surprisingly free of any debris floating around. It's very clean.

Roger.

11, Houston. It's pretty hard to describe this view. It's really—really great.

Now you know how we feel.

Okay. Neil's OPS is about 57, 5800.

Copy.

And mine's about 5800, also.

Copy.

11, Houston. That's a good shot of Neil's PLSS, there. Over.

No, that's mine.

11, Houston. That moment—a moment ago, we had a good shot of your PLSS, Buzz, and the two helmet stowage bags. Down behind your left shoulder, Buzz, we have the—the DSKY and the ACA.
