Spacelog Apollo 11

Roger. We copy that. But there's a greater duty cycle on—There's a good 15 percent duty cycle on the ascent program there, so just go ahead and leave it off. And I have the changes there if you want to get out your surface checklist, and I can go ahead and start giving them to you.

All right. Go ahead. I've got it out.

Okay. Before we start here, request P00 and DATA, and we'll give you some vectors.

Now you've got P00 and DATA.

Okay. And on Surface 50 will be the first change there.

Okay. And I understand you want us to do a P57 option 3 and then a P22, is that the general idea? Over.

That's affirmative. So on Surface 50 there, down at the bottom of the page, just after PRO after two recycles, stick in a time of 122 plus 15; do P22 as per PGNS 20 of G&N dictionary. Over.

Roger. Understand that's 122 15, do P22 as per PGNS 20, G&N dictionary.

Roger. Okay. Let's skip on over to Surface 59.

Okay.

Okay. This is going to be for one last vent on the DPS tank there, so at the top of the page just after EPS INVERTER 1, CLOSE, add—Okay, after EPS INVERTER 1, CLOSE, add PROP DESCENT HELIUM REG/VENT CLOSE, and then after STABILIZATION/CONTROL AELD, CLOSE, add PROP DISPLAYS/ENGINE OVERRIDE/LOGIC, CLOSE. Over.

Roger. Copy. These are two circuit breakers, right?

Tranquility Base, affirmative. Those are just the circuit breakers at that time.

Tranquility Base, Houston. Did you get those two on the propulsion circuit breakers?

Roger. I have those two.

Okay. Let's go over to Surface 60, and then down the middle of the page, after launch guidance system recommendation from MSFN, then I add the switches there.

Roger. Go ahead then.

Okay. After launch guidance system recommendation from MSFN, add DESCENT PROPULSION FUEL VENT, OPEN; add DESCENT PROPULSION OXIDIZER VENT, OPEN; add verify talkback gray. Over.

Roger. DESCENT PROPELLANT FUEL VENT, OPEN; DESCENT PROPELLANT OXIDIZER VENT, OPEN; verify talkback gray.

Roger. You got that one, so that'll be the last vent and it will continue venting. Skip over to Surface 61 down there at TIG minus 17.

Roger. I'm there. Go ahead.

Okay, at TIG minus 17, delete CB (11). AC Bus A, RENDEZVOUS RADAR, CLOSE, wait 30 seconds; delete PGNS: RENDEZVOUS RADAR, CLOSE; and then add UP DATA LINK switch to VOICE BACKUP. Over

Roger. I have that. We'll leave those two circuit breakers open, and have the UP DATA LINK to VOICE BACKUP; and we'll make the appropriate changes on the following circuit breaker status card.

Roger. And then you might add a little note down there at the bottom of the page—Note:—This is at the bottom of page 61—Note: Do not use tape meter in PGNS, i.e., do not place MODE SELECT switch to PGNS. Over.

Okay. We'll put it in AGS.

Roger. Fair enough. That's some more of that computer load business.

Okay. That's all the changes we have for the checklist here. I've got some—just some general notes, I'll read to you on P22, and just for some information. Over.

Okay. Then it looks to me like we ought to get hopping on this P57.

Roger. We agree wholeheartedly. And while you're starting on that, I'll read—just read these notes on P22. Call P22 possible program alarm 5.6, range greater than 400 nautical miles, and then use the P22 as described on PGNS 20. Take option 1 in NOUN 06, and use the no update mode. The rendezvous radar will lock on at about 25 degrees elevation above the horizon. If 503 alarm occurs, designate fail. Key a PROCEED and allow the rendezvous radar to search for the CSM. And place the range altitude monitor switch in altitude/altitude rate to prevent the tape meter from driving into the stops. And press on.

Columbia, Columbia, Houston. Over.

Columbia, Columbia, Houston. Over.

Houston, Columbia.

Roger, Columbia. We'd like a CRYO stir in all four tanks and the standard 1 minute. Over.

In work.

Roger. And do you have any torquing angles from the P52?

Roger. Stand by one.

Tranquility, Houston. Request ERROR RESET at this time. Over.

Roger. ERROR RESET, and would you tell me when you're satisfied with the LGC self test?

Tranquility, LGC is a GO.

Roger.

Torquing angles when you're ready.

Columbia, Houston. Go ahead.

Roger. Stars 25 and 42; angle difference 5 balls; NOUN 93, plus 00165, plus 00186, minus 00039, time of torquing 121 15. Over.

Columbia, Houston. We copy. Thank you.

And CRYO stir complete.

Houston, Tranquility. Would you like a recycle on the VERB 6 04? Over.

Tranquility, Houston, We copy. Stand by one.

Yes. It sure is.

119 59 5992. Over.

Tranquility, Houston. Readback correct.

Columbia, Houston —

Houston, Tranquility. I see what you mean now about the K factor.

Roger.

This is Columbia. Go ahead. And I'd like to know about this P52 coming up. Is that the one I just completed or do you want a pair of them back to back?

Columbia, Houston. You do not need to do another P52 unless you want to. Break. And also, Columbia, when you get a chance, request BATT C and the PYRO readouts. Over.

BATT C says 37 volts even. PYRO A, 37. PYRO B, 37.

Columbia, Houston. Roger. We copy. Thank you.

BATT bus B is 37. BATT bus A is 36, or I'd think the gauge is stuck.

Roger. And you're looking good to us—to us, Columbia.

Yes sir. Keep it that way.

Columbia is coming up on a VERB 45 ENTER to reset the surface flag.

Columbia, Houston. Negative. Stand by on the VERB 45.

Roger that.

And a crew status report from Columbia. I figure I got about 5 hours' good sleep, although you guys probably know better than I do.

Columbia. Roger. We copy.

Columbia, Houston. We've got a couple more vectors to send up to you. They'll be coming up shortly and then you can do the VERB 45 after you get those in. Over.

Okay. That's fine. Just wanted to make sure that we're both in SYNC on the order.

Roger.

Columbia and Tranquility Base, this is Houston. In case you haven't noticed, the MSFN relay is not activated, so I can go ahead and relay anything if you want to talk directly.

Columbia. Roger.

Houston, Tranquility. Be advised we've got —

…

Coming … on schedule — showing red right now. We just put a VERB 77 in. I believe that there's … let me check here.

Tranquility Base, Houston. We've got a lot of static down here. Could you say again?

Roger. We have four out of eight circuit breaker talkbacks indicating red. We still have the circuit breakers out as of right now. I believe at this moment we have just entered VERB 77 on tape 3052 and are ready to proceed with the hot fire. Is it normal to have these four red flags? Over.

Tranquility Base, Houston. We think that's okay. Go ahead and reset them and press on with the hot fire. Over.

Roger. They are reset.

Columbia, Columbia, Houston. Request P00 and ACCEPT, and we'll send some state vectors up to you.

Houston, Tranquility. I used Capella in the last sighting, and it's a good ways near the edge. A good ways away from the center of detent 4. I'm wondering if it would pay any to use Alpheratz, star number 1. It might be a little closer. However, it would delay things a little, since I'd have to designate the radar out of the way. Over.

Tranquility. Roger. We copy. Stand by 1. And, break, break, Columbia. We're having a little trouble getting the stuff in there. Request high gain, pitch minus 20, yaw plus 150. Over.

And, Tranquility, Houston. We'd prefer to save the time; press on with Capella. Over.

Roger.

And, Tranquility, Houston. The RCS check looked mighty fine to us.

It looks good up here.

Columbia, Columbia, Houston. Over.

Columbia, Houston. Over.

Columbia, Houston in the blind—high gain. Pitch minus 20, yaw plus 150.

Houston, Tranquility. Could you give me the fixed portion of the ascent PAD so I can load it in for a P57? Over.

Tranquility. Roger. Stand by one. We want to wait on that P57 until about TIG minus 50 minutes. Over.

Roger.

Columbia, Columbia, Houston. Over.

Columbia, Columbia, Houston. Over.

Houston, Tranquility. It turns out that detent 4 isn't usable anyway with the yaw that we have, because the Earth appears in both detent 2 and detent 3.

Tranquility Base, Houston. Roger.

Columbia, Houston. Over.
