CC: Let's see if you can reach Endeavour and ask him to bring the HIGH GAIN up to Flight Plan angles, please, minus 69 and ll4.
UNKNOWN: Roger. Endeavour, this is Falcon. How do you read? Roger. Houston would like you to bring up the HIGH GAIN to a minus 69 and a ll4.
CDR-LM: Houston, Falcon. Do you have the torquing angles?
CC: That's affirmative. We have two of them, Falcon.
CDR: Roger. Torque to 30.
CMP: Houston, Endeavour is up on HIGH GAIN.
CC: Roger, Endeavour.
CC: And, Endeavour, we copy your NOUN 93s.
CMP: Okay, Ed. And I'11 ... in a minute.
CC: Endeavour, Houston. Recommending monitor 92, NOUN 92.
CDR-LM: Okay, Houston; Falcon. How's the P63 look?
CC: Okay, Dave. It looks very good. Time's okay. And he advised, both Endeavour and Falcon, that the P24 looked good. There will be an update, but we feel very confident about it.
CDR-LM: Okay, Falcon here. Very good.
CC: And, Falcon, we'd like to see a VERB 47 down to the AGS, please. And be advised that your platform, both gyros and PIPAs, are good shape. No updates to them.
CDR-LM: Houston, Falcon. While that's running through there, we're going back through our notes, checking over the activation. And one thing we missed there was, Just before undocking, we ran the suit pressure in- tegrity cheek, and the first time around, we got a greater than 3/lOths decrease in i minute. So we cycled through both regulators, did that test, and came back and ran the suit integrity check again, 1/lOth and it was Just fine. It was about in a minute.
CC: Okay, Falcon. We copy that. Thank you.
CC: Roger, Dave. Talk about reviewing notes, we did so, also, and we found one we'd like to pass to you before LOS.
CC: Dave, we - we're working out a procedure down here that we SIMed, and it's in the event of a low thrusting DPS during PDI. We're prepared to call to you - an RCS thrust augmentation for 1 minute, at about 1 minute or a minute and a half into the burn. And recommending doing it on the LMPs TTCA, if we have to do it at all. What do you think?
CDR-LM: That's fine. We'11 try that if we need it.
CC: Okay. The procedures are very simple. We'11 call it to you as we've measured your thrust.
CDR-LM: Okay. And I guess you'11 call "on" and call "off" with the TTCA, is that correct?
CC: We can. That'11 just be a 1-minute - a 1-minute burst.
CDR-LM: Okay, fine. And by the way, when we went by PD - PDI-0 we took a couple of hacks at the altitude. It showed 10 miles even.
CC: Falcon, Houston. You're about a minute and 40 sec- onds from LOS. We'd like to see a 400 plus 30,000 before LOS.
CDR-LM: Roger. In work.
CC: Falcon, Houston. LOS in 30 seconds.
CDR-LM: Roger, Houston; Falcon. All set.

CMP: Roger, Houston. Endeavour standing by.
CC: Roger. Your buddies are on the ground, and we'11 be along with you in a little while.
CMP: Roger, Ed. I listened to most of it. Could pick them up VHF all the way down, and, in fact, I just now lost contact with them.
CMP: I had a beautiful view of the landing site going over, but I couldn't see anything.
CC: We copy Al.
CC: Roger. On page 1-2 where you get to - to setting your S-BAND to SLEW, I've got some new angles for you because of your attitude.
CC: It's a minus 71 - -
CC: - - and a minus 58. Sorry, plus 71 and minus 58.
CDR: Copied - Okay; a plus 71 and a minus 58.
UNKNOWN: Okay, Ed - Okay, Ed. We'11 give you a little quick s_mmAry here before we get on with it. The general terrain looks exactly like what you had on 14. And many of the craters that we use for ID were completely washed out with no shadows, and I - that's probably because the topo data - data just wasn't that good. And I think we're setting a little off in attitude, but we're in fairly good shape. And, when we get around to the SEVA, we'11 try and pin down the location exactly. I had a little bit of dust at 150 and completely obscured at 50 feet. It was IFR from then on down. And the rest of it, you can probably see it as well as we could.
CC: Falcon, Houston. Do you have an estimate of your landing site?
LMP-LM: There's a long pause there, Ed.
CDR-LM: I think - as best I could find, I think we're fairly close to Salyut. But I guess the best thing to do is to press on and get to - the SEVA where we can take a look around. It 's very hummocky, and, as you know, in this kind of terrain, you can hardly see over your eyebrows. There's very little to tell us exactly where we are in our local position. 68/15 Tape
CC: Completely understand, Dave.
CDR-LM: Okay, thank you. You can probably explain it to the folks back there better than I could.
CC: Dick wants to know where Falcon Crater is, if you can see it?
CDR-LM: I think we're in it.
CC: That's what we figured.
CC: Roger. I have your camera pads for you.
CMP: Okay, Houston; Endeavour. Go ahead.
CC: Roger, Endeavour. REV 15 map camera; pad T-start, 105:52:58; T-stop, 106:17:57. And your camera pa-
CMP: Roger. Houston - -

CMP: Okay, Houston. Understand mapping camera and pan camera pads are the same. T-start, 105:52:58 and T-stop 106:17:57.
CC: That's correct. Your REV 16 camera - map camera pad. Endeavour, Houston, give us P00 and ACCEPT, and we'11 up-link while we're talking here.
CMP: Okay. You've got ACCEPT, and I'm in a middle of a maneuver right now.
CC: Okay. Leave it in P20.

CMP: Understand. T-start, 106:56:51. T-stop, 108:55:19.
CC: That's a good readback, Al.
CC: Endeavour, Houston. If you'11 give is an ENTER, we can go ahead with the load.
UNKNOWN: are you copying the AGS CAL values?
CC: That's affirm, Falcon.
CC: Endeavour, Houston. The computer's yours.
CMP: Roger; Houston.
CC: Endeavour and Falcon, Houston. Could I talk with - a minute. --
CMP: Houston, this is Endeavour. Go ahead.
CC: And Falcon, Houston.
CDR-LM: Go ahead, Houston, Hadley Base here.
CC: Okay, crew. The President sends his regards through Doctor Fletcher, and I read: "The President sends his congratulations to the entire ground team and landing the Apollo 15 crew on a successful and sends his best wishes for the rest of the mission."
CDR-LM: Roger; Houston. Thank you. Our appreciation - -
CMP: Houston, this is Endeavour. Thank you very much.
CDR-LM: - - to the President, and I'd like to thank you too for the support we've had.
CDR-LM: And, Houston, the Hadley Base here. Tell those geologists in the back room to get ready because we've really got something for them.
CC: Which group of guys in the back room?
CMP: Okay Ed. If you've got the gyro torquing angles, I'11 torque them on the minute.
CMP: Okay, Houston; Endeavour. I'11 wait until the even minute to torque them out.
CC: Roger. On the even minute.
CC: Falcon, Houston. Stand by on your stars, and let us give you some new ones.
CDR-LM: Okay. Standing by.
CC: Okay. The first pair, we will have star 3 in de- tent 3; star 12 in detent 6; second pair - -
CDR-LM: 3 in detent 3 and 12 in detent 6.
CC: That's affirm. Second pair will have star 61, that's Epsilon Orionis, in detent 6; and NOUN 88, plus .10975, plus .99373, minus .02127. Star 122, Schedar, is your second. It's in detent 3, NOUN 88, plus .54566, plus .09353, plus .83277. And if you're questioning, there weren't any other noun star pairs available, apparently.
LMP-LM: Okay, Ed. I understand. For the first P57, it's 3 in detent 3 and 12 in detent 6. And then for the second pair, it's star 61 in detent 6, and the NOUN 88 values are plus .10975, plus .99373, minus .02127. And in star 122, in detent 3, plus .54566, plus 09353, and plus .83277.
CC: That's a good readback, Jim.
CC: Falcon, Houston. Your vent's complete. You can terminate.
CDR-LM: Roger. Thank you.
CC: Endeavour, Houston. 1 minute until LOS. You're looking good from here.
CC: E_deavour, Houston. 30 seconds to LOS. Do you read?
CMP: Houston, Endeavour. Roger.
CC: And you look good from the ground, Al. We'11 see you on the other side.
CMP: Okay, Ed. 69/1 Tape APOLLO 15 AIR-TO-GROUND VOICE TRANSCRIPTION
CC: Falcon, we copy your NOUN 93.
CDR-LM: Okay; we'11 torque them at 22:30.
CC: Okay; proceed with your torquing.
CDR-LM: Underway.
CDR-LM: Okay, Houston. Standing by on an RLS.
CC: Okay; let's reject those, Dave.
CDR-LM: All right, reject.
CC: Falcon, Houston. When the NOUN 88 comes up again, hold it, please.
CDR-LM: Okay, Houston. I didn't copy the name of the star, but how about Castor or Pollux or Betelgeuse or somebody like that?
CC: Okay; stand by. We'11 tell you which one it is; we think it's in the middle of the belt, Dave.
CDR-LM: Which one, Jim?
LMP-LM: Alni Lam- Alni Lam.
CDR-LM: Yes, we got that.
LMP-LM: Middle star.
CC: Roger; it's the middle star.
CDR: Sure, old Aludiman!
CDR-LM: It's nice to see friends.
CDR: Okay, Houston. We can use this one, but we don't _ have the NOUN 88 for it.
CC: Yes, you do - That's what we gave you, Dave.
CDR-LM: Okay; we'11 try it again.
CDR-LM: Houston, why don't you read us the NOUN 88s again then, please?
CC: Roger. Plus .10975.
CC: Plus .99373.
CC: Minus .02127.
CDR-LM: Okay; that's exactly what we just loaded. We'11 see where it takes us.
CC: We're seeing it on the last register; we're seeing a minus 02124.
CDR: Sure, that's Just a round-off.
CC: Yes, you're probably right.
CDR-LM: And - let's take a look at the NOUN 79, and that's not even close.
CC: Dave, we specified it for detent 6, and the com- puter's giving you detent 5.
CDR-LM: I should have noticed that, Ed; I'm sorry.
CC: Okay, Dave - the spiral should be about 330 and the cursor about 148, if that helps.
UNKNOWN: Right on.
CC: If you'd like some help being coached on to this next star, it's in Cassiopeiae, and we're suggest- ing detent 3; be a spiral of 181, a cursor of 23, and it should be just to the left of Navi - the bright star to the left of Navi.
CC: And we'11 give you the NOUN 88 ...
UNKNOWN: ... Roger.
CDR-LM: Okay; we'11 cycle back, Ed.
CC: Okay, Falcon; Houston. Observed your cycle back. rerun We're going to have to that first star again.
UNKNOWN: Yes; Roger, Ed. The reason I did that was because we need to stick an erasable load in here on the NOUN 79.
CDR-LM: Okay, Houston. It doesn't look like the program is running exactly light - right.
CC: What seems to be the problem, Dave - it looks good from here.
CDR-LM: Okay, we'11 try; but we - we're in a loop here where it won't accept detent 6, I believe, but we'11 press on.
CC: It's always going to give the first one it com- putes, Dave. Change it to 6 and go ahead.
CC: Okay, Dave, you ready for your second NOUN 69 - NOUN 88s ?
UNKNOWN: Well, I think we've got them on board if that's what you read us.
CC: Roger. You're going great; keep going.
CDR-LM: Okay, Ed; I have Schedar.
CC: Very good, Dave.
CDR: Okay, Houston; the torquing angles are up.
CC: Okay, PRO.
CDR-LM: Okay; they're in. And how about the RLS? Do you want to take it?
CC: Negative, Falcon.
CDR: Roger on the negative.
CC: Okay, Falcon; Houston. We need to reset - redes- ignate the rendezvous radar - to 180, 270 00 for thermal protection.
CDR-LM: 180 and 270.
CC: And, Falcon; Houston. As soon as you get the radar parked, we're ready for the E-MOD dnmp.
CDR-LM: Okay, Houston; here comes your E-MOD dump.
CC: Roger; ready.
CDR-LM: And, Houston, we'11 be standing by for your STAY/ NO STAY.
CC: And Roger; you have a STAY.
CDR-LM: Got a STAY; thank you.
CC: And, Falcon; Houston. We're going to delete the lO-mlnute delay - so you can go right into P06 and power down.
CDR-LM: And, Houston; 15. ED batteries both check at 37.
CC: Roger; Roger. ED BATs.
CC: And, Falcon; Houston. We're having changeover down here; didn't get a chance to say real good Job on that descent.
CDR-LM: Okay; thank you, Ed. And appreciate all your help, too. The corem was super today, and every- body back there was right on top of it all the way. We sure - sure appreciate that help.
CC: And looked real good from here, Dave. We'11 see you on lift-off.
CDR-LM: Okay, thanks Ed-o.
CC: Hello, Falcon; this is Houston.
CDR: Hello there, Houston; how are you?
CC: Super down here, Dave and Jim. From what I heard, it was not only a good landing, it was a great landing. And it sounds like you didn't even bend
CDR-LM: Well, I hope not, Joe. But we're sure in a fine place here. We can see St. George; it looks like it's right over a little rise. I'm sure it's much farther than that. We can see Bennett Hill. We see something off at our - like - i o'clock that's a pretty good elevation we're not too sure of that --but we'11 give you some more dedail - detail later on.
CDR-LM: Go, Houston.
CC: Dave, we've got some vital questions down here. First, did you see the rille on the way down?
CDR-LM: Sure, Joe - easy.
CC: Roger. And did you read the VHF call from Endeavour right shortly before the landing? --
CDR-LM: Negative.
CDR-LM: Why? Did he have something to say?
CC: I'm sure he did, Dave, but we're wondering if you ever heard him call you on VHF - It sounds like we're going to have to do a VHF comm check.
CDR: No, we tried that corem check 3 minutes prior to PDI and we didn't get - we got no response, and Houston verified that the Endeavour could hear us, but we did not hear him.
CC: Roger. We copy. And we have REVs 16 through 20 lift-off times when you're ready.
CDR: Okay; give us 5 minutes to clean up the cockpit here.
CC: Roger, Dave. We're standing by. And be advised the backroom's doing slow rolls just from your first description there.
CDR: Okay, we've got a lot more coming. Stand by.
UNKNOWN: Okay, Joe; this is Jim. I'm standing by to copy some lift-off data.

CC: Roger, Jim. Readback's correct. Sounds good.
CC: Go ahead. 69/7 Tape
CDR-LM: Say, I think we need a couple of words on the PLSS stowed on the cabin floor. We've got the two pins out on the side and can't seem to get it up. Do you have any good words on that?
CC: Stand by, Dave.
CC: Roger; Dave. We suggest you try first holding the bracket at the front in place while you push the PLSS aft and Jiggle it.
CC: Falcon, Houston. Any luck with the PLSS?
UNKNOWN: Roger; sorry. Yes. We got it up; that worked fine.
CC: And, Dave, we thought the transmission time between Earth and Moon was unusually long there.
CDR-LM: It sort of was.
CC: Hadley Base, this is Houston.
CDR-LM: Go ahead there, Joe; this is Hadley Base.
CC: Dave and Jim, while you're working there, thought you'd be interested in the report that the SIM bay is giving us some remarkable data. It seems to be working beautifully.
CDR-LM: Good; we're - hope we compete with it.
CDR-LM: Okay, Houston; Hadley base on VOX. How do you read?
CC: Okay, Dave; you're loud and clear.
CDR-LM: Okay, we're configured; and let's ...

UNKNOWN: Yes, it sure does, Joe. It'11 be - The largest fragment I can see right now on the surface is _-_ probably about 6 to 8 inches; however, inside the walls of Pluton, there are some pretty big chunks.
CC: Roger. We'11 worry about those when we start driving in Pluton.
UNKNOWN: Can you see the edge of the rille up - Dave, can you see the edge of the rille?
CC: And, Dave, while you're swinging around there, do you know if you can see November yet or not?

CC: Roger. And, Dave, we're coming up on 15 minutes SEVA.
LMP-LM: ... finished with the 500, Dave, I have the other camera.
UNKNOWN: Okay. Try not to shoot my foot there.
UNKNOWN: Looking back into the Sun is almost useless .... blots everything out.
CC: Roger, Dave. Any sign of the big mountain back there ?
UNKNOWN: Yes. You can see - Big Rock Mountain back there.
CC: Roger. Copy Big Rock Mountain.
UNKNOWN: Okay. Here, I'11 give you this one back, Jim.
UNKNOWN: I think we'11 get a chance to get a lot more of those. Okay. Got it?
UNKNOWN: Okay, Joe. We've got all the photos. Here you go, Jim.
UNKNOWN: Okay. And let me start - by 12:00 o'clock, Joe, and I'11 go around real quick on the far distant horizon. Apparently, across the rille, I can see - just about our 1 o'clock, now - a very large mountain, which I'd have to call Hill 305.
CC: Superb description, Dave. Got every single word. a comment on ALSEP deployment possibilities. Index back here, about the 8 o'clock, and it inches. Most of them appear to be angular. I _ Tape runs into the level ground, where we get that 5-degree inflection. I see no boulders over there whatsoever. Looks like we'11 be able to get around pretty good.
CC: Roger, Dave. We copy.
UNKNOWN: as far as ALSEP deployment (laughing)_ unfortunately, looking straight ahead in zero phase - it's blocked out somewhat, but if there's continuity of the surface that I see in our general position, I don't think we'11 have any trouble taking the ALSEP out 300 or so and placing it. I just noticed a couple of items on the far side of the rille on the - on the flat horizon ... west there. Looks like a couple of very large boulders on the horizon; just unique, two of them. They're quite bright and - and quite sharp. I cannot see Hadley Sea at all, as we thought we might be able to. Bennett peak is about all I can see in inspection of Head Valley.
CC: Roger, Dave. Is that down towards Head Valley?
UNKNOWN: Trafficability up - right. Down - yes, that's correct. And the trafficability up to the Northern Complex looks the same. I see no large boulders. The slopes go up maybe 5 *** 10 degrees at the most. And beyond that, all the terrain looks pretty - pretty smooth. I can see some young, fresh craters in our vicinity, which are sort of interesting in that there's some very small debris - in the crater itself and on the rim, and it's somewhat lighter gray than the general surface, the debris being on the order of, oh, centimeters or so, And but quite young and fresh. I see a - at 8 or 9 - or 3 o'clock, a very deep crater, old crater, smooth. But I can't even see the bottom, and it can't be more than, oh, 60, 70 meters away. I think that's one of them I was avoiding on the way in. That very mel - well may be November.
CC: Roger, Dave. And how far away do you think that might be. It sounds very exciting.
UNKNOWN: Joe, distances are very deceiving. I'd guess maybe 60, 70 meters. There's another somewhat deeper one just to the north of that. It - it looks to me, and Jim has the same impression looking out the window, that we're much closer to Pluton and - and St. George, and all that stuff_ than we expected to be.
CC: Roger, Dave. We think it just may look closer to you. Sounds like we're in business, old friend.
CDR-LM: Yes, it - it just looks closer, I'm sure, but we are indeed in business. And I think, once we get through here and I hop back down, why, we can talk over more of what I've been seeing up there.
CC: Roger, Dave. You're coming up on 30 minutes into this SEVA, and we don't have any more questions. You've answered everyone beautifully. Outstanding.
UNKNOWN: Okay, Joe. I'11 take another quick look around. See if anything - looks unique. There's just so much out there, I could talk to you for hours. Do you have any specific questions before we clo - call it quits?
CC: Dave, we're - we're hoping you will be talking to us for hours about it. We don't have any specific questions right now. We'11 think about it and talk to you again, once you button up. Maybe one last look for an ALSEP deployment position. And we've copied that you've gotten both sets of pictures for us.
UNKNOWN: That's correct, Joe. I - I limited myself somewhat on the - the 500s, because I think we'11 get a chance to take a lot more of those. But I did get the pans for you.
CC: Roger, Dave. We're quite - -
MCC: Have the ...
CC: - - satisfied and would - would like for you to climb back in now, please.
UNKNOWN: Okay. Coming down.
CC: Just out of curiosity, could you see any sign of - of the South secondary Cluster?
UNKNOWN: There's a gentle rise, just to our south and - I don't see anything that's really prominent, as far as elevation. I think the elevations on the - the models we've been working with were somewhat exaggerated, because I just don't see that much detail looking up towards Hadley Delta.
CC: Roger, Dave. We agree. Sounds like it may well be hidden behind a shallow ridge there.
UNKNOWN: Well, we'11 just have to go look for it. Hey, Jim. You want to hand the drogue?
UNKNOWN: I tell you_ Joe, this 1/6g is really great.
UNKNOWN: Okay. The drogue is in.
UNKNOWN: *** the drogue is locked. You want to verify that, Jim?
LMP-LM: I can't see as well as you can, Dave.
UNKNOWN: Okay. It's locked.
UNKNOWN: I'm coming down. Okay. We'11 close the hatch.
CDR-LM: Okay. Hatch is closed. Hatch is locked. Okay. Both dump valves are AUTO. That's verified.
UNKNOWN: AUTO and locked.
CDR-LM: Okay. CABIN REPRESS going to AUTO.
UNKNOWN: It's AUTO. It's verified.
CDR-LM: That's verified. It's dark in here. Oh. Okay, I'm going to push CABIN REPRESS circuit breaker, if I can turn around here.
CDR-LM: Okay. CABIN REPRESS circuit breaker going in now. --_
LMP-LM: VENT ...
CDR-LM: VENT. Cabin's at .5, 1.0.
LMP-LM: Okay, Dave. We can go CABIN - on the REGs.
CDR-LM: Okay. PRESS REG A and B to CABIN. Okay. I'm going CABIN on both REGs.
LMP-LM: Okay. Okay. You going to read to me?
CDR-LM: Yes. CABIN warning light off. Verify cabin pressure stable at 4.6 to 5. We're at 4.6.
UNKNOWN: Time to take off gloves.
CDR-LM: Alright. Let's doff gloves. Stow on comm panel.
CDR-LM: Okay. Doff helmets and - with visors and stow in the helmet bag.
