CC: Okay, Tom. Look - looking at it, Tom, _'e don't really see any way to get away from it. We could go to 30-degree deadband but you'd still get the thruster firings. That means they'd still be waking you up. As far as fuel con- sumptio_ is concerned, it doesn't look, from the data that we've got monitoring it no longer than we have, it looks like it's just about what they figured. The fuel consumption isn't going to he_ too - too big a factor, but I can understand the thruster firings keeping waking you up, and I'm not real sure how to get away from it. I guess we're going to have to scratch our heads a while on that. The only advantage to zeroing out these attitudes is that it'11 be a while before it fires again, but it even- tually will start firing.
CDR: Yes, I _Fas wondering how much it was going to take us in fmel to go zero them ¢:ut and get all set up again?

CC: Okay. Well, I don't think the fuel that you'd use ge+_ting back to the - zeroing out the atti- tudes, Tom, would he anything to worry about. It will give you a little time to get back to sleep before it starts firing again. So I guess, that's kind of your option depending upon how bothersome it is. If you w_nt to give that a try, why you could.
CDR: Well, why don't we give it a try and see how she goes?
CDR: Okay. Houston, Apollo 10. We have reinitial- ized and we're going back to sleep now.
CC: Okay, Tom. We'11 keep trying to work out a ....... way to keep those things fro_l firing so often. That's - that kind of caught me by surprise, i but I - I can see wheze that would wake you up, all right. Does that - does it give you pretty much of a Jar, or is it noise that wakes you up?
CDR: Well, there's a dull thud, Joe, and you - and the whole stack vibrates and it damps in about three cycles. It's kind of a boom - then you can hear it go rum-rum-rum, you ki_ow, for about t_ree cycles.
CC: Yes - - thud
CDR: - - real mild
CC: Okay. Wc copy, Tom, and we'11 keep working that problem trying to figure someth__ng out here, a little more satisfactory.
CDR: Yes, I think i%'s the viblation more than the noise. It's not b,lt Just _.real 11£_Lt thud _t_.ck when the Jet firea but the whole goes to a real bending vibration for about three cycles. _ain, _it'! a real minor cycle Lut you _.L;n feel it, _._,rl that's w),_,l._f,ps you ew_tw.
CC: Yes, (,Kay. [ urider,_la,,d I C_,.i.: !,r%( _,:_Jj but we could go to that wider deadband, you'd still get the firings; they'd Just be little bigger intervals is all.
CDR: Yes. We'11 stay here and see how this works out. I got ali the lights turned back down and I'm going back to sleep.
