Spacelog Apollo 11

Roger. Copy.

And, Houston, we got a 500 alarm early in the program. Went to DESCENT 1, proceeded on it, and we're back at AUTO again. Over.

Roger. We saw that, Buzz. Thank you much. Out.

All right. I say again—Okay. That wasn't an alarm; that was a code. Okay.

Roger. We saw that.

Eagle, Houston. We recommend you yaw 10 right. It will help us on the high gain signal strength. Over.

Eagle, Houston. If you read, you're GO for powered descent. Over.

Eagle, this is Columbia. They just gave you a GO for powered descent.

Columbia, Houston. We've lost them on the high gain again. Would you please—We recommend they yaw right 10 degrees and reacquire.

Eagle, this is Columbia. You're GO for PDI and they recommend you yaw right 10 degrees and try the high gain again.

Eagle, you read Columbia?

Roger. We read you.

Okay.

Eagle, Houston. We read you now. You're GO for PDI. Over.

Roger. Understand. AELD control circuit breakers. DECA GIMBAL AC—closed?

What?

DECA GIMBAL AC—closed? Circuit breaker? COMMAND OVERRIDE—off? GIMBAL ENABLE? RATE SCALE—25.

Eagle, Houston. Your alignment is GO on the AGS. On my Mark, 3 30 until ignition.

Roger.

Mark.

3 30 until ignition.

Roger. Copy. Thrust translation—four jets—Balance couple—ON. TTCA throttle—MINIMUM. Throttle—AUTO CDR. Prop button—RESET. Prop button. Okay. ABORT/ABORT STAGE—RESET. ATT CONTROL—three of them to MODE CONTROL. Okay, MODE CONTROL is set. AGS is reading 400 plus 1. Standing by for …

Hit VERB 77?

Okay. Sequence camera coming on.

Eagle, Houston. If you'd like to try high gain, pitch 212, yaw 37. Over.

Roger. I think I've got you on high gain now.

Roger.

Say again the angles, though.

Roger.

I'll set them in to use them before we yaw around.

Roger. Pitch 212, yaw plus 37.

OMNI's in.

… 10 … 10 percent …

Columbia, Houston. We've lost them. Tell them to go aft OMNI. Over.

They've lost you. Use the OMNI's again.

…

Say again, Neil?

I'll leave it in SLEW. Relay to us. See if they have got me now. I've got good signal strength in SLEW.

Okay. You should have him now, Houston.

Eagle, we've got you now. It's looking good. Over.

Eagle —

— descent looks good.

Eagle, Houston. Everything is looking good here. Over.

Stand by, Looking good to us. You're still looking good at 3, coming up 3 minutes.

… real good …. about on.

Our. position checks downrange show us to be a little long.

Roger. Copy.

AGS has gone about 2 feet per second greater …

… ought to be … Stand by.,

Altitude …

… it's going to stop.

Eagle, Houston. You are GO to continue —

… closed … GO … at 4 minutes.

Roger. You are GO—You are GO to continue powered descent. You are GO to continue powered descent.

Roger.

And, Eagle, Houston. We've got data dropout. You're still looking good.

… PGNS. We got good lock-on. Altitude lights OUT. DELTA-H is minus 2 900.

Roger. We copy.

Got the Earth right out our front window.

Houston, you're looking at our DELTA-H?

That's affirmative.

PROGRAM ALARM.

It's looking good to us. Over.

It's a 1202.

1202.

Give us a reading on the 1202 PROGRAM ALARM.

Roger. We got—We're GO on that alarm

Roger. P30.

6 plus 25, throttle down —

Looks like about 820 -

— 6 plus 25, throttle down.

Roger. Copy. 6 plus 25.

Same alarm, and it appears to come up when we have a 1668 up.

Roger. Copy.

Eagle, Houston. We'll monitor your DELTA-H.

… worked out beautifully.

DELTA H —

… looks good now.

Roger. DELTA H is looking good to us.

Ah! Throttle down —

Throttle down on time!

Roger, We copy throttle down —

— … throttles down. Better than the simulator.

Roger.

AGS and PGNS look real close.

At 7 minutes, you're looking great to us, Eagle.

Okay. I'm still on SLEW so we may tend to lose as we gradually pitch over. Let me try AUTO again now and see what happens.

Roger.

Okay. Looks like it's holding.

Roger. We got good data.

Eagle, Houston. It's descent 2 fuel to MONITOR. Over.
