Spacelog Apollo 11

Eagle, Columbia.

Go ahead.

My hatch is removed. You can open yours, and I'll start passing stuff up to you.

Okay.

No. Stand by one, first.

Mike, you …

Yes, everything is going fine. Be with you in just a second.

Eagle, Houston. Over.

Go ahead, Houston, Eagle here.

Roger. Any time prior to jettison there, we'd like an AGS to PGNS align: 400 plus 30 000. Over.

Okay. Any particular attitude you would like the PGNS in when we do that?

No. We're not getting any. Could you give us some course align gimbal angles to move the PGNS to, and then we will align the AGS to the PGNS. Over.

Roger. Eagle. We concur. Stand by on the gimbal angles. And also, Eagle, while we've got the command module direct O₂ on there, there's a possibility that your cabin relief might relieve if we get up around cabin pressure of about 5.4 or 5.5.

Roger.

Eagle, Houston.

Roger. Go ahead.

Roger. All we are trying to do is get PGNS and AGS aligned together. Doesn't make any difference on the gimbal angle.

…

Okay. We are pretty close to 000. Is that all right?

Eagle, that's beautiful.

Now, you might want to take into account what will happen when the CSM maneuvers to jettison attitude.

Eagle, Houston. We don't care what—All we are trying to do is get a drift rate and see how long it takes them to drift apart on the thing after you jettison.

Okay. Will we be jettisoning at about this attitude? That's okay. I'll align the AGS with the PGNS. You can tell me a little later if you need some help.

Houston, Columbia. You want me to roll over and get high gain or anything like that?

Columbia, Houston. I can give you some REACQ angles for the high gain on the LM jettison attitude. Then you can go there whenever you want to. The angles are pitch minus 50, and yaw zero.

Okay.

Houston, Columbia. Say again the jettison roll, pitch, and yaw, please.

Columbia, Houston. Roll zero, pitch 025, and yaw zero. Over.

Roger. Understand roll zero, pitch 025, yaw zero.

That's affirmative.

… in progress. We've moving. Houston.

Houston, Eagle. Over.

Eagle, Houston. Go.

Roger. It doesn't appear as though the red hose is going to be much of a competitor to the leading vacuum cleaner brands. Over.

There's a little noise there, Buzz. Say again.

Eagle, Houston.

Roger. Go ahead.

Roger. Just a reminder to be sure to zero the AGS errors before you enable the AGS attitude hold there after you get in burn attitude.

Roger. You mean SEP attitude?

Houston, how do you read Columbia on high gain now?

Hey, Columbia. Houston. Mighty fine; loud and clear.

Same here, Ron. Thanks.

And Eagle, Houston. Your steerable antenna angles for jettison attitude are—Over.

Roger. Go ahead.

Roger. Pitch 165, yaw 68. Over.

Okay. Eagle says they've got a place for it inside there, so no problem.

Roger. That's all we were assuming.

Eagle, Houston.

Eagle. Go ahead.

Roger. Neil, it looks like your steerable's good. You can put your track mode to slew and high bit rate, please. Over.

Okay. Track mode to slew and high bit rate.

Okay. Stand by just one, please.

Okay. Shoot them on down.

Eagle, Houston.

Go ahead, Houston.

Roger. Neil, just a reminder again, the ACA out of detent to zero; the AGS out of there just in case you go to ATTITUDE HOLD shortly.

Okay.

Eagle, Houston.

Houston, Eagle. Go ahead.

Roger. That ACA out of detent didn't quite do it because the mode control switches were off. Request guidance control to PGNS and then back to AGS, and that will zero the AGS, there. Over.

Say again, please.

Roger. Request guidance control switch to PGNS and then back to AGS. Over.

Okay. We still have both mode control switches off. Over.

That's okay. That's good.

And I thought I'd just take about 5 seconds here and see if I could get 000 gone, since we're fairly close to gimbal lock right now.

Columbia and Eagle, Houston. About 5 minutes to LOS. Your LM jet time will be 131 plus 52, and I have the rest of the maneuver PAD if you want it now, or I can give it to you on the next time around.

Stand by one.

Could you read it around the next time around, please?

Apollo 11, Houston. About a minute and a half to LOS. You're looking great. It's been a mighty fine day.

Hello, Eagle. Houston. Do you read? Over.

Houston, this is Columbia. Reading you loud and clear. We're all three back inside; the hatch is installed. We're running a pressure check leak check. Everything's going well.

Roger, Eagle. Correction—Roger, Columbia. We copy. You guys are speedy; you beat us to the punch. We had a couple of things for you.

What are they?

Oh, it was just—We wanted you to close the CO₂ sensor breaker and give us an RCS onboard readout out of Eagle, but that's all. Columbia, Houston. We've got a state vector for you if you'll give us P00 in ACCEPT. Over.

Buzz says the CO₂ sensor circuit breaker is IN

Roger. Thank you very much.

The RCS quantity was approximately 60 at A and 45 percent at B.

Roger.

And we're going P00 in ACCEPT.

Roger. Thank you.

Columbia, Houston. Your friendly White Team's going to be on till we get you on the way home, and we'd like to congratulate everybody on a successful rendezvous and a beautiful EVA. It was a great show for everybody. Over.

Thank you, sir. I'll tell Neil and Buzz.

Houston, the hatch passes its integrity check. I'm going to go to LM tunnel VENT now, and leave it there.

Roger, Columbia. We copy. That's good, and we'd like a readout on the TEP of about the time you—that Eagle selected the secondary loop. Over.

Stand by.

Hello, Columbia. Houston. We got the load in. You can do the VERB 66 and the computer is yours. Over.
