Spacelog Apollo 11

Roger. We need AUTO, please, sir.

Okay. You got it.

Roll zero, pitch 320, yaw zero?

Right now that's what we're looking at. Stand by. We might have you roll so we can keep the high gain. Stand by.

Roger.

Columbia, Houston. Over.

Go ahead.

Roger, Mike —

Apollo 11, these days.

Oh, Roger, Apollo 11. We got you going to a posigrade attitude and we want you—this burn will be using minus X thrusters at about 2 or 3 feet per second, and we got a load for you. We'll send it up momentarily. Over.

Okay.

Apollo 11, Houston. Would you give us P00 and ACCEPT? We have a load for you. Over.

You got it.

Roger, Mike. And our pitch attitude's a little wrong here. If you're ready to copy, I'll give you the SEP PAD. Over.

Go ahead. Ready to copy.

Roger. Starting with NOUN 33: 130 30 0000, plus 00020, plus all zeros, plus all zeros. Roll all zeros, pitch 230, yaw zero. NOUN 44 is NA. DELTA-VP 00020, burn time 007, DELTA-VC 00020. We have—The rest of the PAD is NA.

Roger. GET 130 hours 30 minutes, DELTA-VX 2.0, roll zero, pitch 230, yaw zero, DELTA-VC, 2.0.

That's affirmative, Apollo 11. And, Mike, it's similar to the SEP burn prior to flight after the undocking here. And the P41 you should see on register 1—2, and then you burn minus X until you read 4. Over.

Apollo 11, Houston. Computer's yours. Over.

Roger, Charlie. We switched our OMNI D—Delta, and I lost that last transmission. Would you say again, please? The thing I'm wondering about specifically is that earlier you said it would be minus X thrusters and the PAD indicates plus X. Do you want me to null that to zero or do you want to add 2 and leave it as a 4?

Roger, Apollo 11. The way we gave it to you in the attitude we're in, it'll be just like the SEP burn that you had yesterday. You'll see—NOUN 85 will give you a plus 2 and then you just burn minus X until you read 4. Over.

Understand.

Apollo 11, Houston. We see you in P41 now. It might take you a couple of minutes to integrate these vectors that we gave you and if you don't make TIG, it's pretty insensitive. You can just let P41 bring you up to TIG, and when you get to zero, you can burn on that. Over.

Okay. Burn complete. Residuals: plus three balls 40, plus four balls 7, plus four balls 2, DELTA-V counter 102.1. Over.

Copy, Apollo 11. Looks good to us. Over.

Houston, Apollo 11. How about coming up with a good communications attitude for us to go to between now and the time we maneuver at TEI attitude.

Roger, sir. Stand by.

Hello, Apollo 11, Houston. A couple of things for you. Over.

Go ahead.

Okay. Mike, you can maneuver to your preliminary TEI attitude as shown on page 398 of the flight plan, and the high gain angles are good as shown in the flight plan, and we'd like you to dump the waste water at 131 05 down to 10 percent. Over.

Okay. Understand. I'm going to go to roll 1.1, pitch zero—or 52.6, and yaw 13.8, and you want a waste water dump 10 percent starting at 131 05.

That's affirmative. Right out the LOS.

Maneuver is in progress, Houston.

Apollo 11 under high gain. How do you read?

Five by, 11. How me? Over.

Thank you, Charlie.

And your little maneuver back here a moment ago will put you about 20 miles ahead of the LM at TEI.

Okay.

Imagine that place has cleared out a little bit after that rendezvous. You can find a place to sit down almost, huh?

Roger. Our MOCR's about empty right now. We're taking it a little easy. How does it feel up there to have some company?

Damn good, I'll tell you.
