Spacelog Apollo 11

Columbia, Houston. The coordinates you have loaded in P22 are—we have—are Site 130 prime. Do you concur? Over.

I have the coordinates loaded on the cue card which are for crater 130.

Columbia, Houston. We made an error on those coordinates. We'd like you to load for latitude in a NOUN 89 plus 01 243, longitude over 2 plus 11 844, altitude minus 001 46 as shown in the flight plan. Over.

Okay, Houston.

Eagle, Houston. Could you give us an idea where you are in the activation? Over.

Roger. We're just sitting around waiting for something to do. We need a state vector, a REFSMMAT, a reading on the AGS. And we need you to watch our DAP load, give a voice check, and throttle check. Over.

Roger. Eagle, we'll have the state vectors and the REFSMMAT as soon as we get the high gain. Over. It will be about another 10 minutes or so before we get through the P22, and when we maneuver to attitude and get the high gain, we'll have the updates for you. Over.

Roger. We'll go ahead with the DAP and throttle … check if you don't have the gimble drive check, okay?

Roger. Understand you're going to the DAP throttle check. That's affirmative.

Houston, Columbia. These T1 and T2 times are still good, aren't they?

Say again. Over.

I say the T1 and T2 times remain unchanged, don't they?

That's affirmative. Over.

Houston, Eagle.

Go ahead, Eagle. Over.

Roger. In the first of—on page 47, step 1, we had the guidance control in PGNS and mode control PGNS AUTO and, of course, the circuit breakers are not in on the thrusters yet. So when we started through the DAP and proceeded on NOUN 46—and we're looking at NOUN 47 now, so we've got an RCS TTA light and we've got four out of the eight other bright colored red flags. I think that this is explained by the fact that we are in PGNS and AUTO and unable to fire the thrusters.

Roger. Stand by.

Eagle, Houston. You are correct. The lights are there and the flags because we haven't closed the breakers yet. Over.

Roger.

And Houston, Eagle. Are you going to use the high gain before you can look at our GDA position indicator?

Stand by.

Eagle, Houston. We can see all the throttle data —

I can give high …

Go ahead. Over.

I could give you high bit rate on the OMNI if that would help any.

Negative. We have all the throttle data we need. You can stay low bit rate. You can proceed through the throttle test, but do not do the gimbal trim. Over. Repeat, do not do the gimbal trim.

Roger. Understand.

Boy, you just can't miss those check points, Diamondback and Sidewinder.

AUTO optics are pointed just a little bit north of crater 130.

Roger. Copy, Columbia, Out.

…

Houston, Eagle. We are ready to pressurize the RCS. Over.

Stand by.

Eagle, Houston. You can go ahead with your RCS pressurization, but we would like to hold off on RCS checkout until we get the high bit rate. Over.

Roger.

And Eagle, Houston. Have you deployed the landing gear yet? Over.

That's affirmative. The landing gear is out and …

Roger.

Houston, Columbia. I've completed my marks. I've gone ACCEL COMMAND in all three axes to prevent that thruster firing that last time.

Roger.

Houston, Columbia. Say again on the necessary data on the downlink. Let me know and I'll proceed.

Columbia, stand by on the NOUN 49. Over.

Standing by, Houston.

Columbia, Houston. We got your NOUN 49; you can proceed. Over.

Roger.

Colum—correction, Eagle, Houston. We see the MASTER ARM, you can go ahead and press. We see the press now. Over.

Roger. Looks good.

Roger, Buzz. If you've got—would like, I've got your AGS abort constants. Over.

Roger. 224, plus 60267; 225, plus 58148; 226, plus 70312; 227, minus 50031. Over.

Roger. Good readback. Out.

Eagle, Columbia. My P22 is complete. I'm continuing this maneuver to AGS CAL attitude.

Roger. Fine. We copy.

Roger.

Eagle, Columbia. Your high gain angles are—Corrected—Eagle, Houston. Your high gain angles are 165 pitch, yaw 66. Over.

Roger. …

Stand by about another …

Houston, Eagle. I think I've got you on the high gain antenna now. AGS are go.

Columbia, Houston. If you go to REACQ on the high gain, we can acquire you now. Over.

Eagle, Houston. We got some loads for you if you'll give us P00 and DATA. Over.

You've got P00 and DATA.

Roger. We've got both of you on the high gains now. It sounds great now. Over.

Copy. Roger.

Columbia, Houston. I have a SEP PAD if you're ready to copy. Over.

Stand by one.

Ready to copy.

Roger, Mike. SEP PAD, RCS/G&N: NOUN 47 and NOUN 48 are NA, NOUN 33, 100 395 000, NOUN 81 is NA, roll 000 007 000. Rest of PAD is NA.

SEP, RCS/G&N at a TIG of 100 39 50: roll 0, pitch 007, yaw 0. Over.

Roger. Good readback.

Houston, Eagle. Are you ready for us to start the RCS checkout now?

As soon as we finish the uplink. Stand by one. Over.

Okay.

Houston, Columbia. Comment on P22. Worked just fine. The crater I marked on is a small crater down inside crater 130 as described by John Young.

Roger. We copy.

Eagle, Houston. On our load—during our load, we had to do a VERB 96 to stop integration. We're going to start over again on this load. Over.

Eagle. Roger.

And, Eagle, here. I have read out address in the AGS 404, 405 and 406, and I had believed that 405 and 406 would both be all zeros, and I would propose maybe that I reset them to zero. I realize that 404 should be a negative number, and it is minus 13495. Over.

Roger. Copy.

Eagle, Houston. Over.

Go ahead.

Buzz, we've got—The only thing we're missing here is the drift check. After we finish our load, we'd like you to do the drift check with Columbia. Over.

GO.

Eagle, Houston. The 404, 405, 406 look fine to us. Over.

Roger. I am going to be setting them up to zero for the undocking. The question is do you want me to reset 404, 405, 406 back to the numbers that they are now, or can I leave them zero? I intend to set 404 to a minus 13495. Over.

Stand by.

Eagle, Houston. We would like you to zero, as called out in the timeline, all three addresses, 404, 405, 406, before undocking. After docking you can load them hack to the values that you have right now. Over.

Eagle. Roger.

And, Houston, Eagle here. Both RCS helium pressures are reading 2900. Over.

Copy. Out.

Eagle, Houston. Over.

Go ahead.

Roger, Buzz. There seems to be some confusion here on 405 and 406. We'd like you to zero them out prior to undocking, and after undocking you can—we'd like them still zeroed. Over.

Roger. I agree with that. Thank you.

Yes.

Eagle, Houston. We've got the load in the—We have reselected P00; your integration is going again for you; the computer is yours. We'd like to do the drift check now. Over.

Roger. In work.

Columbia, let's flick it in 0620 when you are ready.

Standing by until your Mark, Neil.
