Spacelog Apollo 11

He may know that, but he doesn't even know whether his grass is wet or dry.

It's apparently raining fairly hard up in Washington where the All Star game was to be played tonight. They started out, I understand, and then it was rained out and they called it off.

They need a roof on their stadium so they can catch all those flys.

Roger.

In the rain.

Touché.

Hey, Charlie, what's the preliminary outlook for the weather in our recovery area?

Stand by Buzz. It looks pretty good as far as I could tell. We got the—along the tropical convergence line there, there's a few clouds shown on the weather map I'm looking at here, but nothing of significance. Right now—Stand by. Let's see, right now in the mid—yes, at the MPL—we've got 3000 scattered, visibility 10, waves height 3 feet, is the present weather. I don't think there's anything forecast to be of significance. There are a couple of—FLIGHT just informed me that what I just gave you was the forecast. are a couple of tropical storms in the—well, not in the area of landing but in the Pacific. A storm called Claudia which is north—correction—about east of Hawaii. It's going northwest and dissipating. And there's one called Viola, which is out over Guam, and so they aren't any factor at all. It looks like it's going to be real nice for recovery.

Navy called up those special calm seas for you guys from up there on the Hudson.

Well, we might need it. We'll get a look at it tomorrow, I guess, though. We'll probably be giving it a pretty close eye.

11, Houston. The RETRO's were wondering if you could fill us in on any non nominal stowage that we have on board. Just location and weight is about all they're interested in. Over.

Roger. We'll do some work on that and let you know, Charlie.

Thank you, sir.

And, Apollo 11, Houston. Would you please place O₂ tank 1 heater to AUTO? Over.

Houston, Apollo 11.

Go ahead.

What we'll do Charlie, tomorrow, is go through and reconfigure our stowage as closely as possible to nominal. Some things that will not be nominal are as follows: the EVA visors were brought back into the command module, and we have not yet found a home for them. We'll let you know where they go. In addition, there's about 5 pounds of miscellaneous weight from the LM in compartment Able 8, and it's taking the place of the LCG's which we moved from A 8 into the suit bag. We got rid of one miscellaneous trash bag, mostly old food wrapping and also old underwear and that helmet protective visor of the CMP's. We left all that with Eagle. And those are about the only off nominals we have.

Thank you very much. We appreciate it. Out.

Apollo 11, Houston. We got the rates looking copasetic. You can go ahead and initiate PTC. Over.

Okay. Thank you.

And Buzz, we're still not getting any data from your EKG. It looks like the only way that we're going to be able to get any is if, at your convenience, you would take your—change out your EKG leads, which are the center ones that are connected to the blue pin; and there's a spare one in the medical box. Over.

Roger. How many did you want me to change?

Just the center one. I'll get the right nomenclature from the Doc. Stand by. It's called the sternal EKG, which are the three center ones, and it's got—they lead into a—into the blue stringed lead ones. Over.

Okay. There's three of them, is that right?

That's affirmative.

And you want me to change all three.

That's affirmative and they're all hooked together from the picture I'm looking at, and they go into the center belt, signal conditioner, and it's got the blue strain relief on it.

Yes. I checked the connectors at both ends on that. I don't guess we have a spare signal conditioner or anything like that, do we?

No. We do not.

Well, I can show you my heart's still working.

We believe it.
