LMP: Put this together.
UNKNOWN: Houston, we're going to go ahead and put down the fuel cask right now, and then I'11 take the fila- ment out of it.
CC: Roger, Al. Copy. You're working with the fuel cask.
CDR: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
LMP: I knew it. This is such a bad place to put it, Pete.
LMP: That's a bad place to put it.
LMP: Fuel cask comes down beautifully in position. Came down Just right.
CDR: Oh, I know what I have to do, Al, and I'm standing here not doing it.
LMP: Okay, now you need to move the SIDE on in.
CDR: We're moving right along, Houston. We're ***
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston. Go to wide deadband.
CDR: Houston. You can tog me for my first ... on the Moon.
CDR: Hey, Houston.
CDR: Something that's real interesting, as we put out this ALSEP right - -
CDR: There's one thing that's pretty obvious, as we're setting out the components of the ALSEP here, is I Just hope that these thermal coatings don't have to stay as white as they are right now, be- cause there's Just no way. With all this dust, there's just no possibility that - -
LMP: You cannot get them a little bit dirty. And - -
CDR: Little bit dirty isn't the word for it.
LMP: I know it. This - this - this - this - this is real - going to be a real problem, I guess, if thermally they've got to maintain ***. Everything that touches the ground picks it up. This suit is about half dirty because the strap landed on it. Uh-oh. It's a little dirty even on top of the fuel element, there. Okay.
CDR: Wait just a minute now before you - get carried away. C_.i NFIDENTIA
CC: Al, we copy your comments.
CDR: ***. Okay.
LMP: I guess we'11 Just have to make allowances for things like that when we build them. They sure are going to get dirty.
CDR: Okay, I'm unlocking the cask dome, right now. It unlocks perfectly, shaking it now and trying to get it off. There you go.
LMP: It came off beautifully. Put the tool and in the - dome aside.
CDR: Very nice.
LMP: Okay. I'11 get out the cask removal tool.
LMP: You can stand over there, Pete.
CDR: Okay. I've got to - got to go back to MIN cooling. I'm about to freeze to death.
CDR: Yes. Okay. Go ahead.
LMP: Yes, oh.
CDR: Okay, now start. There you go.
LMP: ... in there.
CDR: Okay, tighten up the locks ...
LMP: Hold it.
LMP: ... be chipped. Day5
CDR: There. Screw it all the way down. That could make a guy mad, you know it?
CDR: Let me undo it a minute, and try it a different 'Way.
CDR: It can really get you mad. Houston, A1 put the tool on, screwed it all the way down, and the fuel element would not come out of the can. He's taking the tool off, and he's working it again.
CDR: You got any suggestions?
LMP: ... kind of surprised me there.
CDR: ***?
LMP: Come over and look.
LMP: I tell you that worries me, Pete. If I pull on it too hard, there's a very delicate lock mechanism.
CDR: Better not push the pins in quite so far, and wiggle it a little. I just get the feeling that it's hot and swelled in there or something. Doesn't 'to want come out.
LMP: I can sure feel the heat, though, on my hands. Come out of there, rascal.
CDR: Suppose it's outgassed or something?
LMP: Say, Houston.
CC: *** ahead.
LMP: Okay. We've really got a problem, I guess. I've tried using different pins; you know, it's got a three-pin removal - -
CDR: Dual. ONFIDENI[AJ.
LMP: - - so I tried using different pins in different holes. That doesn't appear to haY e any effect. It operates - You know - Everything operates Just exactly like it does in the training mockups - and - up at GE. The only problem is, it Just won't come out of the cask. I am suspicious that it's pulling in there or something and friction's hold- ing it in. But it's such a delicate tool, I really hate to - to pull on it too hard. I believe what we can do, Pete - -
CDR: Hey, I'11 be right with you.
LMP: - - go get that h_mmer and bang on the side of it.
CDR: No. I got a better idea. Where's the hammer?
LMP: That's what I said.
CDR: No, no. But I want to try and put the back end in under that lip there and pry her out. Let me go get the hammer. Be right back. Where did you put it?
LMP: Huh? What? Hammer's on the MESA.
LMP: Okay. Let me get the tool off. It's starting to warm up.
LMP: Can't figure that out, Houston.
CDR: Hey, now.
LMP: Look, Pete.
CC: Al, when you're working on that, try to make sure you've got the pins all the way in, tighten up on it; then you can try pushing down on it a little, before you pull it out.
LMP: Okay. Don't - don't touch these. These are - If these break off, that's all she wrote. CONFIDENTf/ It 5
CDR: Yes. I understand. anything
LMP: And don't pound on that'11 break.
CDR: No, no. I'm not going to.
LMP: Okay. We'11 try it again.
CDR: Rotate and try it this way.
LMP: Pry's in there just like you - going to do the job, only it Just doesn't do the job.
CDR: Oh man, look at the dust fly.
LMP: Just a minute. Just - just a minute. Get those pins in here again.
CDR: You're not getting those pins all the way in.
LMP: They're not in now because I'm lining them up. Just a damn minute. Now, they are all the way in.
CDR: They're all the way in - not quite. That bottom one down there's - Now, my recommendation would be pound on the cask ...
CDR: Hey, that's doing it; give it a few more pounds. Got to be harder than that. It's going - It's coming out.
LMP: Keep going.
CDR: It's coming out. Pound harder.
LMP: Keep going ....
CDR: Come on ...
LMP: Keep going, baby. That hammer's a universal tool.
CDR: You better believe it; there you got it.
LMP: Got it. Got it, Houston. CONFIDENTI,/ I!
CDR: (Laughter) That's beautiful. That's voo much.
LMP: Now, I think I'11 put the - -
CC: Well done, troops.
LMP: We got it, babe. It fits in the - ***.
LMP: Hey, don't ever - don't ever come to the Moon without a hammer.
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston. One minute to LOS.
LMP: That's outstanding.
LMP: Make our move -
CDR: I'm ready .... going.
LMP: Okay, Houston. The fuel element is in the RTG. I can feel it radiate heat already. Put your hand over here, Pete.
CDR: That's amazing. Wait a minute - no.
CC: Copied that, Al.
CDR: No, wait a minute, Al; have you got it strapped around your boot? Let me look and see.
CDR: No, you're all right.
LMP: Ail right?
LMP: Boy, this thermal coating doesn't mean a thing here.
CDR: Yes. That thing is really getting covered with dirt. My gosh.
LMP: I hope they made allowances for it.
CDR: *** do. Okay ....... ?
LMP: It doesn't look like it's - Let me look at that Just a second.
LMP: It's the right way.
LMP: Hey, feel the heat off that machine. That's amazing.
CDR: 1400 degrees.
LMP: Almost as hot as the Sun.
CDR: Okay. Sure it is (laughter).
LMP: Hey, do me a favor.
CDR: What do you need? ...
LMP: No, go lower. There you go; you got it.
CDR: Okay. Okay, let me go - scout - smoke over the area. Okay. Okay, let me go - scout - smoke over the area. Okay.
LMP: Got everything you need?
CDR: Ail right, there's no TV, so I got the SIDE - and the picker-uppers for the rocks.
CDR: Okay. Let's go right off to that little mound over there. How does that grab you?
LMP: Okay. Something's wrong.
CDR: What's the matter? iCON FIDENT!jjl,Jj
LMP: *** The thing doesn't - *** Okay. Okay, Pete. We're okay.
CC: Pete, we copy. You've got the UHT tongs and _%- pallet.
CDR: We're making our move, Houston.
CDR: Ahhh, I can tell this is going to be work - out. Now, take it easy.
CDR: How long did you say our shadow was - the LM's shadow, 150 feet?
LMP: No, that isn't any 150 feet.
CC: Stand by, Pete.
CDR: Take your time, Al; I'm just going out - -
LMP: That's what I'm saying. What's the hurry? We got it made.
CDR: No, I'm just going out to scout the area, that's all.
LMP: Okay, I'm going to set it down and rest.
LMP: Go to intermittent cooling.
LMP: You know, they ought to build this equipment for lunar operations some other color besides white.
LMP: I'm going to go right up to the head crater, I guess.
CDR: Well, if you're going to do anything - -
LMP: *** let me move it. Move it some more. Got any directions you want me to go? _4
CDR: Well, it looks to me like either the direction you're headed is good or the one a little bit more to the right. You're going to - you're going to have to go far enough so we don't end up in one of the craters when we start to ... deploy.
LMP: But I want to go 10 degrees off our takeoff angle; and I think I'm headed out about that way now.
CDR: You just stay back there and take your time. I'11 go out here and scout the area.
LMP: You're getting pretty far out.
LMP: Getting pretty far out.
CDR: I'm going to do a slow - -
CC: Pete and Al, your LM shadow should be about 110 feet.
CDR: Okay, I'm looking for - I'm dying to find out what this mound is over here anyhow, Al. We got a very peculiar mound sticking up out of the ground, Houston, that I want to go look at. As a matter of fact, I think I'11 go take a picture of it. Oh my -
LMP: Look at how that LM is ...
CDR: ... is it?
CC: Roger, Pete. Could you give us your position and distance with respect to the LM?
LMP: Go ahead, Pete, and do what you're doing. Pete's about - I'd guess, about 300 feet at 12 o'clock. t,.CONFIDENTI He's in the bottom of a shallow crater vhat you probably see on your map. It's sort o__ a doublet. Okay?
CDR: I'm headed to the right-hand edge of the head crater.
CDR: Hey, Al. Here's a neat spot to put it out up here.
LMP: Is it flat for a good piece?
LMP: Okay, we'11 put that - It's a good long ways away, too; it must be at least - what - 500 feet from the LM?
CDR: 600?
CDR: It's the world's most peculiar - I got to photo- graph this thing. I can't imagine what it is. A mound is sticking up; and I can't imagine how it got there or what would make it. ... at one-sixth g. Really move.
CDR: I got to get them a stereo of this thing. It's really fantastic.
CDR: How's our time line going, Houston?
LMP: *** sit here and really rest awhile.
CC: Pete, at 1 plus 48 into the EVA, you're looking good. Looks as though you're right on there, if you've just about completed your traverse.
CDR: We have, Houston. Yes. Yes. Now, look, Al. Look over here. We're way out from the LM. Over here, Al.
CDR: See where I'm headed? This great big flat area. Hey,
LMP: That's a good - there's another one of those mounds over there.
CDR: Where? Hey, you're right. What do you suppose they are?
LMP: I don't know, Houston , what they are; they're just sort of mounds. Look like - don't take this the wrong way. It looks like a small volcano, only it's just about 4 feet high; and it's about - at the top, it's about 5 feet across; and it then slopes from the top on down to the - level with the terrain, and that - that diameter, that circle - where it finally becomes level with the terrain, is about 15 or 20 feet. So, it looks sort of like a small volcano. There's a couple of them out here. They look like they were formerly made out of mud or something.
CC: AfL, Roger. We copy. Is there any hole or central vent?
LMP: I don't know. I'm not - -
CDR: I got to go over - we'11 - we'11 - -
LMP: Wa'ii go look them over.
CDR: - - ... after we get the ALSEP out. There's a couple of them here. There was a - This is a - We couldn't ask for a better spot to put this ALSEP down.
LMP: No. This is nice.
CDR: ***, too.
LMP: Hey, lot more rocks up here.
CDR: Listen, there's a - We could play geologist for 2 days and never get any f_rther than we are right now. Seeing all different kinds of things.
LMP: Hey, here's a different one. really
CDR: Yes. It's neat. Better than any ... geology in Houston (laughter). CtONFIDENTIAL
LMP: I'm getting a quick PAN of the area here to - ... down this ALSEP deployment - There you go.
CDR: Okay, man alive.
LMP: Tired?
CDR: No, I'm not so tired. That handle, you know, when you carry this thing around in one g, the ALSEP tends to hang down, but you carry it around up here at one-sixth g, in particularly, the RTG tends to rotate - and the whole pallet, so, in a few minutes, you've got one up - kind of halfway up in the air and the other one's down by your left leg, and you keep being afraid that this handle's going to come undone. It doesn't - Your handle doesn't lock. Okay. I have to almost - That's slick. You know these neat little decals we got on here?
CDR: You can't hardly read them in the sunlight because they don't have enough contrast to them. They're so bright.
LMP: Okay, let's move them.
CDR: Okay. Let me make sure now that we're not going to run out into some holes.
LMP: That's pretty good. Pete, I'm going to move just a little bit further to the east - correction, to the north, so that I won't end up over in that hole to the side. Okay?
CDR: Ail right. Yes, I think it would be a real good spot.
UNKNOWN: ° Okay, I'm - -
CDR: Awfully frustrating.
LMP: Now, I think this is the spot, Pete, right here.
CDR: You look and make sure now that we're going to have a good place for everything.
LMP: Yes, we will. Magnetometer can sit over there and the seismometer will sit on a good flat place_ although the trouble with the seismometer, we don't have any good solid bedrock or anything to set it on. All we've got is this - this dirt. And I don't see any area around that has any rock.
LMP: I'm afraid we're just going to have to take what we can get on this seis - -
CDR: You know, this must be some thermal expansion or something. I'm having a beck of a time getting this UHT in this SIDE. It just flat won't go in there.
LMP: Well, just pick it up with your hands. I always handled the SIDE with my hands.
CDR: I can't bee -bend down that far.
CDR: Okey-doke ....
CDR: Where'd you go, Al?
LMP: I'm right over here, babe.
CDR: Oh, you're miles away.
LMP: Yes, I am. I moved over here.
CDR: Oh, son of a gun.
LMP: I had to do it, Pete, so that I'd have a good place for the SIDE.
CDR: Okay, there's a good spot. Looks good.
CC: Al, when you deploy that PSE stool, it would help if you tamp that ground down as well as you could before putting the stool down. I I
LMP: I'm going to try to do that. This - this ground is - is not - you know; it doesn't get hard as you t move down a couple of inches - you can tamp it, and that's what I'm plan to do; but I don't know. £ONFIDENTIAt II We'11 Just have to see what happens. _ - I'm worried about it getting a thermal short myself.
LMP: Boy, I'11 tell you.
CDR: Man, are you dirty.
LMP: Boy, this sure ... that ALSEP. Look at the ALSEP.
LMP: Ridiculous.
LMP: I remember how they took care of this white paint. You had to have gloves to touch it.
LMP: Remember?
CDR: Yes (laughter). They got kind of a problem here.
LMP: I'm going to have to do this myself. I'11 have to do this backwards; but it's going to work right. Do me a favor, Pete.
CDR: I got my hands full, buddy (laughter). I'11 be with you in a minute.
LMP: Okay. That's okay.
CDR: You can relieve me in this SIDE right here while I -- --
LMP: Well, I will, because it looks like you might -

LMP: They sure splay around under this one-sixth g, don't they? It's moving around a bunch ....
CDR: Watch it, watch it. Where's the orange stripe?
LMP: Should be same as on that other one.
CDR: Obviously, it's on the side I can't see.
LMP: Yes. Blue to blue.
LMP: You know that noise - that whistling - is coming from you, Pete, because every time you move around, it whistles. When you stop, it quits.
LMP: Yes. There it is.
CDR: Is it locked good?
LMP: Yes, sir. Okay, you're - -
CDR: ... that one over there?
CDR: Drop that baby.
LMP: Okay. You got it?
CDR: Let me have the cable right there.
LMP: Ail right. 0ops! That came out.

CDR: _nat's what I wanted.
LMP: Ail right. Those lights came on nice. CI)NFIDENTi
CDR: The next thing I got to do is head this way with it, right?
LMP: No. Before you do that, come here a second, would you, please?
CDR: Yes, but let me set it down.
LMP: Uh-oh, the top popped open.
CDR: Supposed to do that?
LMP: No. Not supposed to do that. You can close it, though, before it gets any dirt in it. You can just reach up there and close it.
CDR: Okay. You better - you better do it for me - -
LMP: ... close it while I'm holding it - -
LMP: Before we get any dirt on it.
CDR: Son of a gun. Why did that happen? Never saw it do it before.

LMP: But just don't touch that. It'11 be okay.
LMP: Didn't hurt a thing.
CDR: Let me just put this down here.
CC: Pete, before you set the central station down for the final time, would you also tamp that ground down? It would help in keeping the dirt off of the thermally sensitive areas.
CDR: Oh, I did it; I did it (laughter).
LMP: You set it down.
CDR: I set it down and it didn't fall over. I can't believe it. Here I come. What do you need, Al?
LMP: Use your tongs to hold this up a minute. It's a little hot, and I don't want to touch it. Watch this.
CDR: Where are my tongs?
LMP: Right there in your - There you got them. Now, if you'11 just hold it steady, then I can do the rest. There, now. That's good.
LMP: Thanks, Pete. Got it.
CDR: Okay. I'11 go get the rest of the stuff over here. Where we at?
LMP: Okay. I'11 work on getting these apart. NFIDENT L
CDR: Okay. Take your time. Thing's coming out real well. The name of the game is to get the ALSE? here. Whee! Up to one crater and over another (laughter).
LMP: Oh, man.
CDR: Does that - does that look as good as it feels?
UNKNOWN: It does. Hey, I'11 tell you the way to do, Pete, bend and rock from side to side as you run. Like that. There you go.
LMP: You really move better that way.
CDR: Here I come, ready or not.
LMP: Houston, I'm - I'm not kidding; we are really getting dirty out here. There's no way to handle all this equipment with all the dust on it. Every time you move something, the dust flies; and, in this low gravity, it really takes off, goes way up in the air, and then comes down and lands on yOU.
CDR: How far do you estimate we're from the LM? 600 feet? 700 feet?
LMP: At least.
CDR: I think you're right. 600, 700 feet.
LMP: Way to do it.
CDR: Here I come. Do do de-dum.
CDR: Dumdum de-dum. Coming after the antenna mast.
LMP: Okay, let me plug this thing in, Pete.
CDR: I can't get down low enough to get it off.
LMP: I'11 get it for you, if you can't.
CDR: Okay. Wait a minute, Let me move that dust cover for you.
LMP: How's that strike you?
CDR: Okay. Just leave this latch - -
LMP: Hey, I'm making a joke -
CDR: Strikes me pretty good. I'11 be tamping the dirt around this central station.
LMP: Okay, Going to have to design things with little legs on them or something, so you can put them (laughter). down and they stand off the soil over
CDR: If we had that suit we could bend in, we'd have the job done by now.
LMP: Hey, can you push down on this side of that?
CDR: Yes. My biggest sweat is trying to bend over. Wait a minute. Ready, get set, push. That on, or not?
CDR: I don't think so.
LMP: No, let me - let me look at it a second. Here we - here we are.
CDR: Which way do you want this?
LMP: Under there. Right there.
CDR: I had to really push that other one. Look at all that dust.

LMP: Now, we won't touch the shorting button. Okay. We've connected the RTG to the central station, Houston. And we're ready to go to work deploying the experiments.
CDR: I got the antenna mast.
CDR: De-dum de-dum d_m.
CC: Pete, did you experience any difficulty with the dust cover on the SIDE?
CDR: It opened, Houston, and we closed it again, and we got no dirt on it, fortunately.
CC: Roger, Pete. Well done.
CDR: Okay. Let me tamp the dirt down underneath the central station. Hey, easy does it - Whoops! (Laughter) That's me.
CDR: Oh, I started to walk away with the central station attached to the UHT via the little gizzy. Okay?
LMP: The RTG's down and cooking.
CDR: Okay. I'm tamping the dirt, here.

LMP: I don't even see a needle in there, Houston.
CDR: Yes. Okay. Let's quit screwing with it. Get on the time line.
LMP: I don't know where it went.

CDR: Okay. *** your EMU break.
LMP: I am.
CDR: I try to stay away from - That's a nice job on that solar wind.
LMP: Thank you. You've got to be careful you don't kick dirt on them once we get them setting down. I guess the way you could do it is have - have it in some sort of package - a package out on the dirt.
CDR: What are you doing anyhow?
LMP: Well, I had to get this - Oh, I'm sorry.
CDR: Here you go; move it up right here where my foot- prints are.
LMP: Okay. tCONFIDEN.II
CDR: There. That a boy. That a boy. Now don't - doing good. There, now, kind of tamp it right around in there. That a boy.
LMP: *** go off the central peak. Now, let's see what happens if we set it right -
LMP: That looks like it'd be okay, doesn't it?
LMP: Just a second. Let me do a couple of things. Do this ... Take ... a little bit out of there.
CDR: Pull it over a little bit more and level it up.
LMP: This doesn't - Yes, this doesn't need to he level. Okay. That's got kind of a deeper hole there in the center.
CDR: Yes. You're in good shape. That doesn't have to level, huh?
LMP: No, because the - the other one levels ... this stool.
CDR: Okay. Push it down a little bit.
LMP: Okay. That's a good idea.
CDR: *** it?
LMP: Looking good. Looking good.
CDR: Just give me the tongs, and I'11 put them away.
CDR: Get with it and I'11 start opening Boyd bolts.
LMP: That's going to do okay, Pete.
LMP: Yes. ONFIDENTI' Ii
CDR: *** I'd whistle while I work. I can't do it. yes, (Whistle) Oh, I can.
LMP: Okay. That seismometer's right in position now. Here's hoping. Here's hoping nothing happens to it.
CDR: Looks real good, Al.
LMP: Yes, it does. It looks like it's going to clear. Houston, looks like digging that little hole might work. Setting up there nice now, and it looks like maybe it's not going to ... down in the hole. Maybe - maybe we did it. We'11 have to see.
CC: Roger, Al. We concur; it sounds like a good plan.
CDR: Whoops!
LMP: Isn't that something? Look at that.
CDR: What? Just have to put a little dirt on it, I guess.
LMP: When I put out the skirt of this foil, it doesn't want to lie down. I guess because it's been folded so long. I guess I can just probably just put it out. It acts almost like it's got an electrostatic charge on it that's resisting the lunar surface. I'm sure that isn't it.
CDR: Hey, stop 1 second. Watch out. Don't - don't come across - don't - I know. That's what I want you to do is come take it.
LMP: Okay. unreeling.
CDR: That cable isn't even See, it's per- fect. Take it out there and set it. That a boy.
LMP: It's right behind there. You may - - jI
CDR: There you go. CIDNFIDENTIAj
LMP: Just trip it. You might want to trip iz - Trim it off that thing, Pete.
CDR: Trip it off what?
LMP: It's on that post.
CDR: Oh. Ail right. I see what you're talking about.
LMP: That shadow's going to be just right. Looking okay.
CDR: Oh, fiddle-de-diddle. Come on.
CDR: Okay. Everything is going great, but that whistle is driving me nuts. Bothering you?
CDR: Okay. Oh, darn it. I can't - can't help but get dirt on this darn thing, no matter how careful I am.
LMP: I don't think there's a way, Pete. I don't think there's a way. But you got - if you got where you could - You put it out in a package and then your last step was - like the SIDE over there, it just deploys off the thermal wrapping, your dirt clean protector, and you end up with a nice experiment sitting there.
CDR: How we doing on the time line, Houston? Stand
CC: by, Pete.
CDR: Whooo! (Laughter)
UNKNOWN: What happened?
CDR: Oh, it's just the way things pop off down here in one-sixth g. Okay. Won't be long and I'11 get to my favorite task, pointing the antenna.
CC: Pete, we show you're about 8 to 10 minutes behind but it's no sweat. You've got - you got lots of oxygen and feedwater. We'11 give you an update on the time remaining, when you finish deploying the ALSEP.
LMP: Good. Looks like it's going real good, Houston. This seismometer, I'm having a little trouble making the skirt lie down; but, other than that_ it looks good. It doesn't want to Just lay flat like it does on Earth at one g. It sort of wants to flip up again. I guess it's just because it's got this memory in it from being folded so long, and the forces to make it lie down aren't too good.
CC: Roger, Al. You can make a two-man task out of that and put a little dirt around the outside edge to hold it down if you like.
LMP: Okay. Well, I noticed that if I just - -
CC: You won't have any trouble getting any dirt on it, will you?
CDR: Let me push this down. That'11 do it.
LMP: Okay, Pete. Let me level it up. I think it's pretty near level. It's lined up exactly east. If I give it a couple of pushes.
CDR: I got this feeling there's a couple of Boyd bolts that aren't undone here for some reason.
LMP: Thing looks level as can be to me.
CC: Roger, Al. Copy. You have the bubble centered.
LMP: I'11 tell you an interesting thing about this bubble, Houston; no, it's okay. It's okay.
CDR: I am not happy here, Al. I'm afraid something ... one these Boyd bolts is not undone, and I don't understand why.
LMP: Why, one of them didn't do or what?
CDR: Well, I don't know. I haven't the foggiest idea. I thought all of them did. N.F©ENTIAL..:
LMP: Looked like you're well ahead of the time.
CDR: Hey, take your stick and kick a little dirt up on it right there.
CDR: Take your stick and just put a little dirt on the edge, just on the edge, though. Not much. Uh-oh. I got some bad news.
LMP: That's okay. I won't do that anymore. _at's okay; that skirt'11 stay down enough.
CDR: Okay. That's - that's complete. Let me take a couple of pictures of it. Okay, Houston. The passive seismic is down; the alignment is exactly 90 degrees, and I'm going to take a couple pictures of it here. Hey, Al.
CDR: I don't know what's the matter, but something is.
CDR: Okay. Would you look and see if the lens on my camera looks clean? Wait a minute.
CDR: There, you got it made.
CDR: No, I don't either. I don't know what's the matter.
LMP: Want me to hold down this part'while you get that other bolt -
CDR: Push - push - push that center down. All right? Looks good.
LMP: Oops. Got it.
CDR: Hey, it's alive (laughter). CJ)NFIDENTtAL
LMP: It sure wants to come up, doesn't it? Whoo_
CDR: Houston, central station's up.
CC: Roger. Copy. Central station up, and 90 degrees on the PSE gnomon.
CDR: Never mind. I'11 get you in a minute.
LMP: Don't ever move backwards (laughter).
CDR: Hey, we're going to have to do a lot of - What did you do, fall over?
CDR: No?
LMP: No, but I just - I didn't come close even - it's just that - I think something you want to follow as a rule - -
CDR: But don't kick dirt on this - -
LMP: I'm doing my best.
LMP: ... and the central station is not level.
CDR: Not too bad.
LMP: Get a good shot of it here, Pete?
CDR: Okay, I'11 take out the - the magnetometer. ONFIDENTI
LMP: Central station went up so nice.
CDR: Al, those are my last two Boyd bolts.
LMP: I'm down in a little crater now, Houston; and, sure enough, right in the bottom of the craters, there is a lot more - a lot softer dust than up on the rim. Not much; but it's noticeable, I don't think the sides are slippery at all. I don't think it's going to bother us going over to get our Surveyor ... about that distance, Pete?
CC: Roger, Al. We copy. You on your way out with the LSM?
CC: That's right. Got it right in hand; I'm out at the end of the line, and I'm deploying the legs right now.
CDR: One antenna mast in place, Houston. Going back for the - my favorite thing.
LMP: Are you through with - you got all these other packing ... - -
CC: Roger, Pete. Copy antenna mast in place and good luck.
CDR: What'd you - -
LMP: Look at that, Pete.
LMP: Hey, one of the fun things here, Houston, is all these Styrofoam packing blocks that come off - to - that are put on there to protect it during man - shipment, or launch - when you take them off and throw them, they really sail. These things stay airborne up for 10 seconds, maybe.
CDR: Got any more thoughts on our TV camera, Houston? CONFIDEN'[iAL.
LMP: Pete? Pete.
LMP: Watch this.
LMP: (Laughter) Try that on - Hey, I just threw something. It hasn't hit the ground yet; it must have gone up 300 feet. Boing!
CDR: (Laughter) Stop playing and get to work (laughter). 4-1/2 Come on. Maybe they'11 extend us until hours. I feel like I could stay out here all day ....
LMP: I know it ... Right there. Okay.
CC: Pete, we've been thinking on that camera, and when you get back, we'11 have a test for you to run on it. It looks as though part of it's come back. And we're going to try and see what we can salvage.
CDR: Ok - okay.
LMP: What do you think happened to it, Houston?
CC: Al, we're not sure on that. Why don't you wait until you get back - wait until you get back at the LM, and we'11 work it out a bit and see if we can determine it?
CDR: Gee, that's nice. Gee, that's weird (laughter).
LMP: (Laughter) Those arms, on Earth they just flop down in position. Here, they don't even want to stay. There they go.
CDR: That thing hit the ground; it's still bouncing. CiONFIDENTIAL
LMP: That's slick. That's really slick. Boy, I hope - I hope - -
CC: Hello, Yankee Clipper; Houston.
CDR: You hope, you hope?
LMP: Oh, I was just thinking about something. Pete, no way to keep these things clean; I'm really worried about this white coating.
CDR: Lucky for me that the antenna head is almost level.
LMP: I can see that. This dot doesn't - doesn't seem hard to see.
CDR: I'11 see what I can do with it. There it is. Here it is. I think. Right there. Right in the center. Center.
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston.
CC: Dick, the EVA - EVA is going pretty well; they're 2-1/2 hours into it; and they've got the ALSEP a good way deployed. Apparently, both of them look as though they just crawled out of a coal bin. Other than that, seems pretty much nominal.
CMP: Very good. Thank you.
UNKNOWN: Okay, Houston. The magnetometer's deployed; it's level, and it's pointed exactly east. And the little black dot is right in the middle ...
LMP: Same - -
CC: Same - Main concern here, there's just a lot of dust on top of the box and the electronics there. Just hope it doesn't bother it too much.
CC: Roger, Al. Yankee Clipper, we have a map update for REV 19.
CC: REV 19: LOS 118:48:40, 119:13:30, 119:34:33.
LMP: Okay, Pete, let me take a couple of pictures of this ....
LMP: CDR What are you mumbling about over there?
LMP: Well, I just - I just don't - I don't like all that dirt on it; don't know what we can do though. There's no way to work around them; the radiator's got a little dirt on it, and there's no way to dust it off, and there is no way - Ail you can do is tap it a little bit and hope some of it falls off and that's about it. Don't want to tap it too hard. That's the best I can do.
LMP: Okay. Okay. I've deployed the SIDE now, Pete.
LMP: It's my last item.
CDR: Not my last one.
CDR: Does the antenna look like it's pointed at Earth? Wait.
LMP: It looks close.
CDR: That's it ....
CDR: Do the SIDE right now.
LMP: Got her.
LMP: Okay. I hope I don't tug on the station here, as I come out, Pete.
CDR: If that happens - (JONFIDEN'rI
LMP: It all looks pretty level, by the way. Your station does.
CDR: We're nearing the end, I'11 bet.
LMP: I'm done.
CDR: How's that -
LMP: Now it's just - (laughter) - They must have doubled the cable length on this ones
CDR: That does it?
CDR: You're at the end. You're at the end.
LMP: Okay. Let me set it down and work on it right here.
CDR: That does it, old buddy.
CDR: Okay. Now what do I want to do?
LMP: ... do like that, does it?
CDR: Have you got the tongs?
CDR: Have you got the tongs? Were they with that box - or do I have them?
LMP: You've probably got them on you.
CDR: I do? I can't see - No, they weren't with that box.
LMP: We used them - they're prob_oly by your central station.
CDR: Hey, I got them on me. CONFIDENTIA J.
CDR: Okay, Houston, the antenna is up. It's aligned to 1644 and 525.
CC: We copy that, Pete. You got the nominal align- ment.
LMP: That came out.
CDR: SIDE screen came out very nice. Okay.
LMP: Popped right out. Looks good.
CDR: Boy, are you dirty. I'm just as dirty. Don't much want to stay down. Okay. That first shape; I can't believe it.
LMP: (Laughter) They've got to be kidding. Yes. Boy, anytime you put anything spring-loaded on the Moon, you're in trouble (laughter). This screen has got sort of - you know - a spring to it?
LMP: Doesn't want to lie down much up here in this gravity.
CDR: Okay. Houston, how long we been out?
CC: Pete, you've been out 2 plus 40, and the pacing one right now is Al. You're running around 20 minutes behind. And when you can, we'd like an _U check, and if you'd give us your 02 readings?
CDR: Okay. My 02 reading is 50 percent. And have you got anything for us? Haven't heard too much from you.
CC: Negative on that. You're perking along real well. And we're following your progress. It looks as though you're getting the job done.
CDR: Okay. Look - How you doing, Al?
LMP: I'm doing good. ICONFIDENTI
LMP: That little thing just doesn't want to z _
CDR: Houston, let me ask you a question. Can I push in the shorting amp thing?
CC: That's affirmative, Pete. We understand you're not able to get a reading. So, go ahead and close it - -
CDR: Ail right. It might - -
CC: And we'11 stand by for a zero reading.
CDR: - - okay, it might be full-scale high.
LMP: Hey, you'd better tell them I still haven't put the SIDE down.
CDR: That doesn't make any difference, does it?
CDR: It's all connected. It's all connected. Does it make any difference, Houston?
CDR: You're a big-area litterbug? You know that?
CC: Pete, we'd like you to go ahead and get the full deployment down first before you depress the shorting amps.
CDR: Okay. Boy, you're dirty all the way to you knees. Can I give you any help?
LMP: Sure could.
CDR: All right; here I come.
CC: And, Pete and Al, a comment on picture taking. If you would, try to document some of the dirt which you've - which has gotten over - all over the equipment. If you would, try to get closeups which will show the dirt we might have on thermally sensitive areas. And, also, when you get done, if you would, take one or two extra pictures showing the ALSEP with the mounds that you described previously in the background. That'11 give us a good geometric reference.
CDR: Okay. I did a PAN -
LMP: Hold it - Hold that, Pete.
CDR: I did a PAN out here at the -
LMP: Okay. Just a second. Now, let me hold this end and you stretch that end out.
CDR: Okay. I got it.
LMP: Go to the right. That's it. Get the ... Get the coils out of it.
CDR: Which way's this thing head?
LMP: It's got to head away from - central station - away from everything. Probably ought to point right over there.
UNKNOWN: But, now, I think if you kind of twirled it a couple times, it would end up uncoiling that twist in the line there.
CDR: That's right. Let me try it that way again.
LMP: Looks like it might be working. That's good. That's doing good. Okay. Let me take and set this thing down, and it's supposed to point to the Earth this way. That'11 be good.
CDR: Got your ground wires wrapped around the leg.
LMP: Yes, I know. Got it. Looks like it's going to be okay.
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston. ONFIDENT.
CC: Yankee Clipper, if you'11 give POO and _CCEPT, we'11 ship you up a state vector, a target load, and a REFSMMAT.
LMP: Okay. Hold on, hold on. Don't tip over.
CDR: Now, wait a minute, wait a minute.
CDR: I got it steadied.
CDR: There, that's all right.
LMP: Just hold it there and twist it.
CDR: Watch it, watch it, watch it.
LMP: Okay. I'm trying to.
CDR: No, your foot's hung in it. That a boy.
LMP: That did it. Okay. Let me sneak it back on again. Okay.
CDR: Now, what do you want?
LMP: I want to put that lid back on there. It would probably be best if we just left it off.
CDR: I think it would be best if you left it alone.
LMP: Okay. Now, if you hold it there while I - -
CDR: ... I got it. I got it anchored.
LMP: - - because this is going to want to turn it over.
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston. We're coming up with a load.
CDR: Yes. Step on it.
LMP: Okay. That's what I think I can do. No.
CDR: They've got to be kidding about that cable. I've been - They knew that thing was going to do that.
CDR: There, maybe that's better.
CDR: Come on, this thing's making us run behind.
LMP: I know it, but I don't see any way to quickly - (Laught er )
CDR: Ail right, now, just a minute. Your foot. That's better.
LMP: Okay. Make it turn - Let's try it a couple more times. I think if I hold it this way and use this tool, I can probably set it - -
CDR: Hey, it's just like zero g; everything floats up. That baby's going to nose dive into the dirt every time, sure as I'm standing here. That cable's cleverly designed to make it do that.
LMP: Let's put it like this. Down like that.
CDR: Don't fall over.
LMP: Okay. There's no way.
CDR: Uh-uh, just - That a boy.
LMP: That thing goes right in the dirt each time - -
CDR: I know, I know. It's going to do that. It's very frustrating. Turn it around and point it the other way. See if it'11 - see if it'11 point out that way.
LMP: Ail right. That might be good, too. Okay.
CDR: Do - I knew that ding-a-ling cable was going to make us spend hours trying to do that.
LMP: (Laughter) Doesn't that make you mad? I ONFJDENTI
CDR: Yes. I know - especially when you know it's going to happen.
LMP: Look, why can't I set it like this? You Just let go of the SIDE and come over and step on that thing.
CDR: Hey, if this SIDE falls over, then I'm really going to he mad. I got that thing firmly planted.
LMP: Just a minute. Wait, wait. Hold - hold it. Hold her a minute. Okay. Get this just arranged. That's it. Now, step on it.
CDR: I can't. Here - There's no way. Let go of the - let go of the string in your hand. That a boy; now, bend -
LMP: It's just - -
CDR: ... That's it. Push it in.
LMP: Ah! We made it. I hope. Let's push it real hard in there.
LMP: I think we've got it licked.
CDR: That a boy. Easy does it.
LMP: Oh, you - That thing just jumps right up.
LMP: Pete, I'm just afraid that one - We've had it on this one.
CDR: We've had it on that one, all right.
LMP: Hey, here it is here. Look, I don't think it makes any difference if it - if it lays on its side as long as it points its aperture in the right place.
CDR: Let's move it around here and Just let it lay on its side. Yes, it doesn't know - it doesn't know the difference. Let's just kind of lay it around. Let's turn it - now, that'11 be - that'11 work; that '11 work.
CDR: That work right there?
CC: Al, we concur with that. Go ahead.
LMP: Okay. It looks like the only way this - this cable has just got too much spring for the - for the - the weight of the package, and there's just no way. Okay, Pete. Let her go. Now, let me level it. No way.
CDR: That's a shame. What time is it, anyhow? Let me get over here and get a big picture of this.
CC: Pete, you're 2 plus 48 into the EVA.
LMP: Okay. Level this_ Pete. That's leveling good. Leveling real good.
CDR: That American flag sure looks pretty back here next to the LM, doesn't it? The S-band - looks like a model.
LMP: Yes. I think that's going to do it for the SIDE. That was a tough one ...
CDR: Back off; I got the picture.
LMP: ... you got a cross-Sun?
CDR: No. Let me get - I'm just getting one from a distance here ...
CC: Al, copy you have the SIDE deployed.
CDR: Yes. Everything's deployed. I'm going to go get the shorting plug now, Houston.
CDR: (H_mming) Boy, do I like to run up here. This is neat.
LMP: Yes. It is fun. ONFIDENTIAL
CDR: The first thing we've got to do is run ever to that volcano-looking - whatever that little jobber-do is. That's interesting. Okay, Houston. Here comes the shorting plug.
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston. The computer is yours.
CDR: ... ASTRO switch 17 Hey, Al.
CDR: I need your help over here after a minute.
LMP: I'11 be there.
CDR: Houston, how about ASTRO switch 17
CC: You're clear to rotate ASTRO switch 1, Pete.
CDR: Okay. Gosh, we can't - We've got to realign that antenna.
CDR: Okay, Houston. ASTRO switch 1 is rotated; short- ing amp switch is in. I'11 be a happy man if you tell me you're getting a signal.
CDR: Boy, it's all put up.
LMP: It sure looks nice.
CDR: How about - how about messing with this one thing right here_
LMP: Okay. Well, we'11 do it, Pete. Let's - let's - I wanted to just look at the numbers with you, too. Hey, would you just do me a favor? Use your tongs and pick up a couple of these Boyd bolts and set them on the edge of that skirt - ... the seismic. There's about 10 Boyd bolts just near it over there. What did you want me to look at? ONFIDENTIAL 5
CDR: Just check - check that antenna; make sure it's level.
CDR: Okay, I'm ... You do that. I'11 give you the tongs. I'm going to run over and photograph this ding-a-ling looking -
CDR: Houston, how long you going to let us stay out?
CC: Pete and Al, - -
CC: Pete and Al, Houston. Looks like you did the job. We're getting data hack.
CDR: Hey, that's - You don't know how happy I am.
LMP: Okay. Tell me again the ... numbers you're supposed to use.
CDR: 16445.25. Here, turn around.
CDR: I shouldn't have done that ... dirty all over, here.
CDR: All right, I'm going over to this mound.
CDR: I'11 be hack in a flash. By-by.
LMP: Okay. I'11 tell you the numbers I read; you tell me if they're right.
LMP: I read 52 - no, no, correction - I read 525.
LMP: Okay. I also read - 16 - 42. ONFIDENI. t r

LMP: 1642. You ever - Is that - Is that it?
CDR: 1644, Al.

CDR: I don't know what this is. Let me get the - ... feet at f:8.
CC: Yankee Clipper, Houston. Go ahead.

CDR: I know what it is.
CDR: Well, I think that rock - I think it's - it's just a little secondary impact crater. Very funny ... Boy, is that a funny rock - It looks -
CC: Yankee - Yankee Clipper, Houston. I have the maneuver PAD when you're ready to copy.
LMP: Hey, here's a rock they'11 be glad to see in Houston.
LMP: It's an interesting one. It looks like a solid glass chunk - -

LMP: I'11 he there in a minute.
LMP: Hello. Hello, Houston?
CC: Al, Houston. Go ahead.
CDR: Okay. How long you going to let us stay out?
CC: Pete, you'11 be extended 30 minutes_ so, you're out for a total of 4 hours.
CDR: All right, how much do we have?
CC: And it looks as though you're - Okay. You've got about 1 hour left, and it looks as though we're going to have to close off pretty much with the nominal plan; and stand by; we have some words on the traverse back.
CDR: Okay. We're standing over at the head crater.
LMP: Why don't we start picking up some rocks, Pete, while we wait? Yes?
LMP: Want to get a picture of that?
LMP: Let me get it set up.
