UNKNOWN: Looks beautiful. See it real well. It doesn't appear to be any clouds - any large cloud forma- tions near it. There's a nice crescent-shaped large weather system that appears to be several hundred miles out to sea, but I don't know if that will affect it or not. But the whole area around that southern tip of California there is nice and clear.

LMP: Been looking at the Earth some more through the monoeulars, and I think maybe the part of the U.S. that I thought was the lower left-hand corner, the Los Angeles area, it was Just about to have sunset, was really not. I don't think I could see that because of the - it's color- related to the blue of the rest of the Earth. I think maybe it was the desert area around Phoenix and around in there, Just thinking about the time it is now. And I'm not able to discern at all the lower left-hand corner of the U.S., I think, because of the colors.
CC: Roger. A little smog out there in L.A.? Can't see through it?
CC: No. I aon't think it's smog. I can't see any of that area. I think it's probably Just that ) the Earth out there has more trees, shrubs, and the like, and that makes it sort of a gray-green which is sort of like the ocean whenever you look at it from this view. And they Just blend in together, and you're not able to tell exactly where one starts and one ends. We noticed that a little bit as we were closer to earth and then now as we get out this far, about all we can see is something contrasting very greatly with those blue-grays or blue-greens. In this case, it was sort of a reddish-brown .... - - CC

CC: GO, 12.
CDR: We were Just talking about the TV show this after- noon, and I guess what we'd like to do - it proba- bly hasn't been seen before that I remember - If we could get a high-gain antenna angle and the Sun in our center hatch so we could get as much light as possible into the command module, we'd like to use the TV and try and show the removal of the hatch, probe, and drogue and then take the TV over into the I/4.
CC: Very good. We'11 get those angles for you. Sounds like a good show.
CC: Just a note for the director of your TV presenta- tion: We'11 get the first 29 minutes of that presentation live; the rest of it will be recorded at Honeysuckle and shipped back to us. We'11 get it in several days. But we'11 only get directly through Goldstone your first 29 minutes.

LMP: Hello, Houston; Apollo 12.
CC: Apollo 12, go ahead.
LMP: Roger. Do you have a report on the families' activities today?
CC: Negative. We'11 see if we can find out what's been going on over here.

Dick's been fitting the SO 158 making sure it fits and works, and that's occupied us for about the last 3 hours.
CC: Ah, very good. Where do you put the garbage when you haven't got a fantail to throw it over?
CDR: We've defined the area below the window shade box and down next to the 02 mass as the fantail, amd we have rigged a garbage bag down there. And we retransferred all of the gear out of the TSB's and neatly wrapped and packaged them and made sure they all had their pills and good things zn them.

CDR: Okay. Also, as we're approaching the Moon, of course, we're beginning to notice less and less of the Moon. We're moving out in front of it, and although - although the terminator is coming around, we're beginning to see less and less of the illuminated portion of the Moon, and it's becoming quite noticeable to us now.
CC: Roger. Just checked with your f_milies. Pete, Jane reports that they've had a very quie_ Sun- day afternoon there. Everybody is home, and everybody is well, and there just really is not mucn excitement going on. It's Just been a very quiet afternoon over at your house. Dick, Barbar_ says - -
CC: Barbara reports to you, Dick, that Sharon and Lynn Diamond are over for the evening, and they're expecting the Irwins over momentarily, and Jim McDivitt just left. She says the boys have gone back to school, and she thought things were going to be pretty quiet; but, between Barbara and Karen, she's got so many giggling girls around there that it's more noisy than she thought. The other thing she pointed out was that Father Connally had been over and had noticed Barbara having a map this afternoon, and coming out of church this evening he commented in front of some of the people standing there in the church that the last time he saw her she was - she had been asleep. And this was much to her consternation. Also, Barbara ask that you guys talk a little bit more. She says she certainly expected more conversation out of you than she's been getting. Al, your wife reported that they're a]l missing you. They're extremely proud of you.
CC: Apollo 12, Houston. How do you hear?
CC: Roger. How do you hear now, Pete?

CC: Roger. How do you hear me now? We - We've Just switched the antennas.
CMP: Roger. You're loud and clear, and you started cutting out after you said that Father Connally was over and Barbara was taking a nap. Can you go back to that point?
CC: Oh, yes. Yes. Father Connally had been over in the afternoon and had seen Barbara taking a nap. So coming out of church this evening, in front of some of the members of the congregation, he said that the last time he had seen her she was asleep. And this was very embarrassing to her at the moment. Also - -
CMP: - - Well, that is better than what he could have
CC: (Laughter) Also, Barbara had the comment for the whole crew that she's a little disappointed in how much you're talking. She certainly wanted you - expected that you'd talk more than she's been hearing lately.
CMP: We're talking. She's just not hearing.
CC: She also requests that when you talk, try to be a little funnier. Al, talked to your wife. She said that the family are missing you and that they're extremely proud of how the flight's been going. They'11 be watching tomorrow; and, also, she wanted you to know that all the children were fine. This evening when Amy was going to bed, she turned to her mother and she said, "I want to see my daddy. I want to touch him." So, you're being missed. Also, she concurs with the decision on the tunaflsh. She definitely was happy that you didn't eat the day-old tunafish. That's about all the family has to report.
CMP: Okay. Thank you, Don.
CC: Say, one other item for Pete. The board of directors has had a meeting, and the VFR has been replaced with IFR Conrad from now on. 38/5 Tape Page 174 J
UNKNOWN: (Laughter) I understand. Okay. Very good.
CMP: Don, we're all decided up here that we're going to have to get another Saturn V ride because we sure missed the last one.
CC: Very good (laughter).

Other than that, it doesn't - we can't see anything else. Over.
CC: Very good. If they're 30 or b0 degrees in, you won't have to worry about any flare particle from them.
LMP: Who's worried?
CC: Sounds like you guys are having a real good review of astronomy this afternoon.
LMP: We've been studying astronomy.,geography, geology, a few other things up here.

CC: Beano, this is your old social director speaking. One thing, I'11 guarantee that those dark spots on the o'hzuaren't clouds.
LMP: (Laughter) I thought it was particularly appropriate, since we were going to the Ocean of Storms, that we bailed out of the Earth in the midst of one of them.
CC: How about that.
CDR: We thought for a minute we had a caution and warning failure because they all came on.
CDR: What are you doing up so late, Social Director?
CC: Oh, I Just thought I'd keep check on you, Pete.
CDR: (Laughter) There's not too many places we can go.
CC: Yes. Watching the plot up here - -
CC: It's quite a view out there, isn't it, Pete?
CDR: Sure is. Did you all learn any special tricks about viewing the Earth or the Moon? Did you think we haven't tried?
CC: No. I think we've passed on all the basic information and guess it's quite a view to see it rotate through the windows there and take pictures of it.
CDR: Because, during launch, I usually tell A1 which lights are on, if he has an electrical problem. Friday, all I could do was look over and tell him, I said, "Hey, Al, they're all on." plan
CC: No, we can probably some good simulations now on. from
LMP: We talked about it before; and Pete said, "Don't worry." He says, "If you ever have anything go wrong in flight, it'11 be something you've never seen before in your life." He was right.
CC: Yes. That's - that's the way it always happens.
CC: One thing you've got the advantage of us. We couldn't see the Moon until we got Just - right nearly to it by that westerly site. You've probably got a pretty good view of it now.

CMP: Okay. How's that platform looking then, this morning?

CC: Apollo 12, Houston. How's your sleeping bags working out up there, Pete? Over. Page 178 D
CDR: Real good, Tom. The first night I slept in a h_, and A1 slept in a bag, and Dick slept up in the seat. He didn't sleep too well. And last night, I slept up in the seat, and Dick slept in my bag, and all of us like the bags. And one of the problems with the seat is that - going and we're to take care of that tonight - it's rattling around in here, and every time somebody stirs down below, why the seat bangs off the wall and that naturally wakes up the guy that's sleeping in it. It's kind of spring- loaded, anyhow.

LMP: That's wide open on the f-stop now, Houston.
LMP: I think part of the problem is there's a lot of contrast between that dark tunnel and the white garment of Dick's. It's giving the camera a little fit.

CDR: What you got, Al?
LMP: - - yes, here comes a couple of towels. Both of that and the Kleenex go in the left-hand side s_orage compartment. Let me get the 16-millimeter magazines and 70-millimeter magazines.
CDR: Hey, Al. Why don't you come up here, and let me get those for you?
LMP: Okay. That's _ good idea, and then maybe I can say a few words about this here. -')--
CDR: Well, as a matter of fact, you're going to have to do that, Al, because I can't get any lower on Tape _1/9 191 this COMM cable. You're the only one that can get down there.
CDR: I'11 hold the camera, Dick. We have a three- way switch here in the tunnel.
LMP: Okay, I'11 Just come on past. Okay?
CC: We Just had a good view of your helmet stowage bag down there a couple seconds =go.
CMP: Al, here's the Kleenex and the towels.
CC: Looks like you're trying to pack a telephone booth.
CDR: I'11 get the camera in here, Jerry, and bring it around the corner.
LMP: Okay. Let me put those in their proper spots.
CDR: Okay, what we've got on this side, Jerry, is what we call a left-hand side stowage compart- ment, and it's pretty unique in that it's made out of Beta cloth, and from these snaps, you can see we can remove it. So what we do after the first EVA, we put a lot of our things that we don't need anymore inside these bags, and then we can put them outside on the lunar surface; and after the second EVA, we can put some other things in this other er the backend side of this stowage compartment, and then put it out on the lunar surface, also, until we end up being able to very tidily put some of our gear on the out- side of the - outside the spacecraft so we'11 be a lot lighter when we get ready to leave the lunar surface, which is handy since we - you can bring back more rocks and what have you.
LMP: Okay, I'11 Just stick this down in here.
CDR: You can also see in the picture the restraint straps that are hooked up above that, used to hold us in for landing. Tape L1/iO
CDR: There you go. Yes, this is what Pete's talking about. Okay, you got some more goodies? 70-millimeter magazines. There's two of them. These are the two that go here in the TSB, temporary stowage bag ....
CDR: Two of them go in the ISA.
LMP: Right. Just a second. TSB safely stuffed away. Take a look in here, and let's see how this looks. Let's poke them right in here_ then they'11 be here tomorrow. Open this up.
CC: 12, Houston. Our color TV is running about 11 seconds behind your voice_ and so what you're talking about, we're seeing about anywhere from 10 to 11 seconds later.
CDR: Okay. That's interesting. Was that due to the processing?
LMP: What we are doing now is putting the - two of the 70-millimeter magazines for Hasselblads in the stowage container here. Those are the two that we're going to use when we first get on the lunar surface. Here's three more, and these three will be used the second EVA, and so we'11 stick them over here in the right-hand side stowage compartment. The right-hand side doesn't - isn't removable at all, as you probably know. We'11 go ahead - The cameras and film that we bring back from the lunar surface, we'11 put all of that material over here on the right- hand side, or a lot of it anyway, because the left-hand side won't be there. As you're looking now, then I'm slipping that Beta cloth bag in its place on the right side.
LMP: Okay, here's the 16-millimeter film.
CC: The same thing with the 16-millimeter film, you'11 be seeing in a moment.
CDR: Okay, there's Just one of those, Dick, and that's in A-8. Bi/ii Tape
CMP: That's the whole package, Just here?
LMP: Okay, as you see, I'm Just about to put the 16-millimeter magazines in their stowage com- partment.

CC: We're getting a good view of the right-hand com- partment now, and we can see your helmet stowage bag down there in the corner, that spherical white hag.
LMP: Right. Right in here, we keep some spare bulbs for the COAS. A little bit higher up, we've got Sun filter for our telescope.
CDR: Yes, and it's marked.
LMP: There's the COAS filter. It's the pilot's sighting device. The waste stowage bags are stored in the bottom two compartments. In here, I hope, is our Hasselblad camera, at least one of them. We have two of them. Yes, there it is. Got to put it together right now. It is - just the camera itself; we'11 have to put the maga- zine on later, and the handle, and all the attachments allowed to be fixed to our PLSS. RCU, PLSS RCU.
LMP: Is that all of the transfer?
CC: Roger, Al. That's the color camera you're going to use out on the lunar surface, isn't i%?
LMP: No, Jerry. We don't have the color camera that we're going to use on the lunar surface inside the LM. It is outside on the MESA, and it's going to be Just like Apollo 11. When Pete goes handle; down the ladder, he'11 pull a it will lower the MESA, and then the TV will be pointing 'i_.p e 1_1/12 Page 19_ right at the lower part of the ladder so that everyone can see when he steps on the surface. Me'il later put that out on the lunar surface on a tripod, and we'11 be able to move it around so that everybody can see for both of our EVA's. Those two cameras - I only showed you one; the other is right next to it - are the two still pictures of rocks, the Surveyor when we get there, and ALSEP, and what have you, while we are walking around.
CDR: Jerry, I'm showing you a picture of the instru- ment panel right now; but what I'm more interested in, on mv monitor, I can see some dust particles; maybe you can see them down there on the TV. I think that's pretty good resolution.
CDR: They happened to he floating in the sunlight - they Just happened to be floating in the sunlight that's in here. Of course, there is a little bit of - it's very light dust, but it looks big on ) the TV screen because the Sun is illuminating it; and, of course, as soon as we start running the ECS system in here, it will clean it all out.
LMP: Okay, I am going to start doing that right now. Just opened the descent H2O. I'm opening the descent 02, Pete, and going to CABIN REPRESS, AUTO; and, when T do, you are going to hear a han_, so- -

UNKNOWN: a good picture.
CDR: ... get that last item.
LMP: Yes, Pete's PISS is on the wall behind him. When we suit up, we won't have a lot of time to t-lk to you on the lunar surface. What we do is, Pete gets over on his side, which is the left side of the spacecraft; this side over here. I'11 be over on the right; I'11 take mV PLSS off the floor and mv put OPS on top of it. Pete will do the same thing with his; then he'11 put - hold my PISS up while I put it on; this takes about 10 or 15 min- utes to get mv PLSS on and connected. Then I kind of back over in my corner and hold his PLS$; he turns around and puts it on. It's not a lot of Tape _.l/lb, room here, as you can see; and when you're fairly bulky with your suit on, your PLSS is on, your helmet, and the whole business, you have to be very careful that you don't bump into the - any of the parts of the LM. I'm showi;,g you my PLSS again. It is a little bright here, so I am going to have to be careful about this camera. There's the helmet stowage bag.
CDR: Hey, Al, I wonder if it's at all possible for you to stop the camera down and show them the window.
LMP: The markings on the window? That's a good idea.
CDR: Yes. The RTG is really illuminated there in the Sun.
CMP: Okay. Why don't you see if you can get over there near it?
LMP: Ail right. Okay, the light Just went out, Houston, because I've stopped the camera way down.
UNKNOWN: I'm going to try to show you, without bothering the camera. Yes, but we don't need since I've got it ...
CC: 12, Houston. What's the configuration of your suit ISO valves, now?
LMP: We opened and closed them, per the checklist. They are both in SUIT DISCONNECT.
CDR: It is getting awful bright.
LMP: I know it. It's liable to bother that camera.
CDR: Is that too bright on the ground, Houston?
CMP: It is f:22,
CC: Can't tell, Pete.
LMP: You're looking at, Houston. I 1_1/15 Tape '1
CC: Roger. We can see the scribe marks on the window.
CC: Okay. What happens is, Pete stands right behind those scribe marks you can see right at the top; There's - where the horizontal line is, that's 0 degrees, and then there's a 10 down, 20 down, and 30, 40, and on down. Right at the top then, left and right, there is also some angular marks. As we proceed in the descent and we pitch over where the lunar surface is visible, about ?000 feet, Pete's going to be looking out through the window at those marks. I'11 be reading from the computer, and the computer will say where it's taking us to land, relative to those marks. For example, probably the first thing you will hear me say is "12 degrees," so Pete will look out at the h2-degree mark, and he will see if that is the Surveyor crater. We spent a lot of time learning which crater the Surveyor is in and a lot of the more interesting craters around there, the more easily identifiable craters. He right place, I mean if the h2-degree mark's _._ the right place. If it is, then we'11 just con- tinue on the present trajectory. If not, he can use his control stick to put a certain number of inputs in to change the direction we are headed; for example, if he saw it at 10 degrees instead of 42 for the crater we wanted, he could pitch down a couple or pitch up a couple, depending on what he wanted to do. If he saw it at h0, he would pitch down a couple of hits of the stick and, hopefully very shortly, the computer would notice this and s_art heading for the hO-degree point. I'd continue reading the number , and he'd continue to monitor them all the way down. When we got down to a low altitude, then we would be in a good position for Pete to take over manually and land next to the point we're headed for. This is c,lled the LPD or lauding point designator. It allows the Cnmmander to keep up with where the computer thinks it should land and then tell it to land at a different place, if he feels it should.
LMP: Got any questions on that LPD, Houston? Go ahead. 41/16 Tape '3
CC: Roger. I hate to change the subject on you \ guys, but it looks like you don't have your AUTO REPRESS capability now. When you activated your SUIT ISO valve, it looks like what you should have done is gone to the SUIT, FLOW, and then used your actuator override, in order to set it up.
CDR: Row does that look to you, Houston?
CC: We don't have TM; we saw that on your TV picture when you were over there fooling with it; and, so far, we haven't seen it again.
LMP: Okay. We fixed it up for you.
CC: Okay. Thanks. I think you pretty well covered that LPD situation. I don't know that there could be any questions.
CDR: Okay. We're readjusting it back inside now, Houston. Back over here, Al.
