11, Houston. That's a good view of the eight ball. We see—You can even read the OFF flag, there.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
Houston, did you want us to test the cameras in the LM and—I was wondering about that. I saw it in the flight plan, but I'm just wondering if you want to do that on CSM power, or do you want us to take both of the 16mm cameras back in the CSM and test them there? Over.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
As an alternative to that, why, we could wait LOI day and do it then when we transfer over to LM power.

11, Houston. On that TV, our commentary—The monitor I was looking at was delayed about 12 seconds, 12 to 15 seconds while it went through our color converter. It was probably—You thought I was crazy, but we were looking at it 15 seconds after you broadcast it. 11, Houston —
- Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. On the LM cameras, we'd like you to do it on LOI day with the LM power. Over.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)

Houston, we're showing you something that came out of the Commander's checklist stowage packet. It's got a 16-millimeter camera in it, and it's got this little cylinder; and I guess—I don't understand what it is. Maybe you can tell us.
- Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)
-
11, your friendly geologist says it's the camera cank- crank, excuse me, for the 16-sequence camera if it jams. Over.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
There's that word again. The ancillary stowage container.

Houston, 11. Are you still getting high bit rate off the OMNI's at this distance?
- Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)
-
Apollo 11, Houston. About 50 percent of the time, we're getting high bit rate off the OMNI's when you're in PTC. Over.

Apollo 11, Houston. Neil, at this attitude you look like you're about 12 feet long.
- Neil Armstrong (CDR)

It seems like I always find myself upside-down in whatever I'm doing around here.

Apollo 11, Houston. Could you give us a few comments on your crew comfort with the CSM hoses moving the air around? Over.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
It's hard to tell at this density and pressure of gas, but comfort level is about the—about the same as the command module.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
It was a little warmer or stuffier when we first got in, but it seems to be improving.

— some particles jumping around on your screen. That's just dust particles that are being illuminated by Sun shafting in the window.

Roger. They're very clear now. Over. And that's a good view of Neil's—correction, of Buzz's circuit breaker panel, there.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
I can just barely see the handrail on the front porch from the position on the right-hand window.
- Charlie Duke (CAPCOM)
-
11, Houston. Our view of the Panel 11 is—gets brighter, then darker. Are you changing the f-stop at all? Over.
- Buzz Aldrin (LMP)
-
No, what's happening is, we get pretty close to the window now and then, and it drives the automatic light control into the stop, I think.
