C: Okay. HOWLS TON
CC: Gemini-5, Houston, we have some inforw_tion for you. I know you are preparing for the D-6 and I'1t just read it off to you. You had a GO for 77-1 and you will receive some RCS updates during this pass across the States for 62-1, so you'11'see a DCS light coming on and going off.
C: Okay, fine. We're GO up here. Do you want the onboard readouts?
CC: Yes, when you get around to it. I think you are getting ready for that D-6.
P: Okay, I'11 give them to you right now. IA is 8-1/2, lB is 8.0, lC is 9.5, 2A is 7, 2B is 6.9, 2C is 8-1/2 and the main bus voltage is 26.0.

She says that Cam and Jan are fine and that they all are very proud of yc_Lr lm_rt of the progress that you and Pete are making and I'd sort of like to add my congratulations to it also and I'm sure that the Flight Director would too.
C: _]aank you Milty ...
CC: All right. '
CC: I have some updates for you on some of your _orthcoming experiments. The times have changed slightly. If you're ready to copy, give me a holler here.
P: Okay, whe_ we cross the coastline, we're going to try get one right in here someplace.
CC: Rog, I'I1 JuJt staad by and you can give me a holler when you' re r_.
C: I might a_ right now that I'd recc*zaendto Wally that he throw this reticle away, Milty.

CC: All right. You have an experimemt at 14:56:50. This is a D-_/D-7 and the time now has been changed to 14:56:53, 3 seconds later. Did you find that one, Pete?
CC: Okay, under the remarks for that particular thing, the test time has been champed from 14:57:31 to 14:57:33.
CC: Okay, you have another D-k/D-7. This one is at 16:28:03. The tlme _ that has been changed to 16:28:07.
P: Roger. '
CC: Okay, now right after that particular experiment there's an S-7 mad right after that is a 1)-6. You're r_ally going to be pressed for time in between the D-4 and the D-6 with that's-7. So try to work it through the Lef%- hand pilot's window or something so that you don't have to dismantle all your equipment there. And we realize that it's very time critical there.

CC: No, you can go ahead and just hold your attitude using the Pulse .Mode, Gordo, and just make sure that you stay near the zero roll and zero pitch attitude.
CC: Gemini-5, we'd a,so like to have you keep your power level down so that we don't use up too much of the reactants.
C: Roger We' re completely powered down now.
P: We' re ready for the map update.
CC: Okay. Ready for the raap update, here it comes. Time for both the map and star update is 06:17:36:22. The maim update is 134.0 degrees East for Bev 63. The star update is 0:16:41.
CC: Okay. Dr. Ber_ would like to talk to you here for a couple of minutes.
CC: Gordo and Pete, you've had 100 hours 11 minutes and 35 seconds now, and we'd just like to tell you that all the data that we're seeing down here, it looks really excellent. Adl the rates and the pressures are still well within normal ranges, no abnormal changes at all. We think you're doing beautifully as far as water intake ia concerned. We're delighted with this. The food seems tp be going okay, too, and we do feel that you still need to keep pushing on that sleep, and I guess you feel the same way, and we're going to try and help with that. Are you still comfortable as far as the spacecraft is concerned or are yOU having any more times when you feel cool?
UNKNOWN: C Every time we are powered down at night it gets pretty cool in here, but we'! L overcome that some way.
CC: Very good. Listen, Pete, we have checked on this cuff business and we feel that you just run out of gas. So' what we'd like for you to do is to turn that switch off and then, if you desire, at your option, depending on how much bother you're having with the cuffs, you may try and _pmove those cuffs, if you think you can do it. It's up to you.
P: Okay. I'm going to try and take them off because when the heat load is up you sweat around the legs and that makes them itch right there, very badly, and as long as it's hot r_mning, it's not doing me any good.
CC: That's right, Pete, and I think you ought to--if you are going to--you can cut--feel free to cut through the cuffs if you want. Just be careful when you' re using the scissors there.
P: Okay. Well, I've been out of the harness once already and back in again, 8o I can get them off all right. I'm not worried about that.
CC: Okay, fine. Well, let's try that. I think you ought to get them off. It will be a lot'more comfortable. It's still going to give good data, Pete, because we feel that with the--it's still going to give us some comparison with the four da_s that we've had.
P: Okay, sorry it has run out of air. We heard it running two or three times back during test t4w_ and told them about it. Nobody seemed to pay _,ch attention to it, guess been so I it's leaking now.
CC: Oh boy. We need a new gas supply. You might breathe on it awhile. Are

CC: Are you doing better with these nap now, Gordo, as the days go on? Ia it easier to go to sleep during the nap periods or not?
C: _, I don't think we've ever had trouble with the nap period. We power down for those periods of 30 or 40 minutes several times during the day and get little naps, but for the long sleep periods we really had trouble getting any length--you know, lengthy sleep.
CC: Okay. We'11 check these times out pretty carefully with Jerry. Both Jim and I want to do that after the shift today and we'11 try and get something worked out on this flight plan and on the sleep times with him.
C: ' Yes, well _bAt was the big thing. On the longer sleep period there are Just too _ny interferences where you and Just couldn't settle down sleep.

CC: Roger. Speed 60 ground, speed 30 stars. faded
P: You again. Say again.
CC: Quests= Mode Oi, speed 60 ground, speed 30 stars. Copy that time, Pete?
P: Yes, spC_-_d60 ground, 30 stars.
CC: Roger. Procedure, read out 69 until it updates, then RENDEZVOUS. switch to CATCH UP for 5 seconds and back to
CC: Repeat throughout pass. If 69 readouts are bad, Radar- STANE_ for 1 second, then ON. Copy okay? ON. me 1 second and then back Let write it down.
CC: Ready flor more? _ i
P: Go ahead, just a mi-ute.
P: All ri_h_.
CC: Take four photos of groundwhen radar is boreeighted. O
P: Take four photos of ground when radar ia boresighted.
CC: Roger. Aline platform before next dark. During alinememt C_mmputer-CATCI{UP and operate radar in both and S_. Copy okay?
CC: That's just to cheek it, to get scm data points; you locking anything. won't actually be on O_, further in,tructtc_S. Point at ... Australi_ - that's near your zenith - and take one photo. This is Just after you get into the dark, of course. Copy okay?
C: Peint at ... Australi_ amd take one photo?
CC: _llat'acorrect. This is just af%er you get in the dark.
CC: Point Canopus and
UNKNOWN: take one INaoto.
C: Point at Canopus and take one photo.
CC: Roger. And this test should finish up our requirements on the Radar Test pro_,na, we l_pe.
C: Okay, this is the next night side after the one we're in. Is _h-t affirm?
CC: Next night aide after what?
C: I said, _h_t's the next night aide when we do that?
CC: Right following the Rmmtar Test - th&t's correct. You' 11 get an ul_te on whe_ to do the Radar Test.
C: Okay, will we get an update on whe_l to bring on o%tr platform and radar, etc.?
CC: That's correct; that'11 be in your Carnarvon update later on t_. Ohs
C: okay. quick.
CC: Looks like we may lose LOS here pretty I've got a illumina- couple other cluick questions. On this rendezvous you, think probably tion test that was sent up to I it was lengthy. pretty I'd like to boil that down to a much, much simpler test. And do you think you could do acmethim_ like that for us in a leisure time - we'11 schedule it ahead next day or so - a leisure time and do it without the platform. This would be to get some vis_al sighting i type data or feasibility of a star background for GT-6 type operation.
P: Yes, we'11 really have difficulty doing it without a platform. We're venting fairly badly, at least venting enough that it keeps setting up rates on us while, you kngw, while we're just drifting.
CC: Roger. . _-_ , · , , ."._,i
C: I think we probably wouldn't be getting anything worth- while in that type thing; we're going to need a platform to tell where we're at with, you know, to be able to damp the rates.
