CMP: Yes, it sure is. That's been a very - help.
CC: And, Ken you don't have to acknowledge. Look our plans are in the morning first thing to give you a clock sync and get back into the Flight Plan.
CMP: That sounds like a good plan.
CMP: Oh, one thing you've got to be careful of up here is - when you go to look outside, you kind of have to watch it because you get your - you get too greedy and you get your nose up against the window. About one breath is all it takes, and it's all fogged over.
CMP: I think our humidity must be running fairly high.
LMP: I_m passing over a nice little guy right aow and would guess - on, I haven't been paying any attention to where I am - looks like I must be - probably looking the the north at - somewhere around the - Guts - Gutenberg uplands. _d I'm passing over a little crater that's got another large center fill in the and nice big crater in top of crater him, a l_ttle chain around it. And as I said earliest, evelTthir¥_ out h_re has this linear pattern £r these linestlents and iv doesn't matter whether it's a flat surface, a ilorizontal, verti- crater cal_ inside of a wall oF a - they all seem to have it in one form or another.
CC: Okay, Ken. if - if our plot board up here is right, you ought to be in - coming up on landing site.
CMP: Oh, maybe I'm out the wrong window here.
CMP: You're right, Henry. that we drew on our map and talked about. There's a little black spot about in the right area, and I don't have my map so I just looked out at it. But I'11 come back next time and take a look and - sure like it is something - entirely different texture.
CC: Are you talking about right in the area of the landing site?
LMP: In the - in the landing site area, but not in the landing site - traverse regions. But that little dark thing looked like a - a possible cone that was out to the - north and to the west. There's a little black dot out there that looks like there may be something that's - %hat is dis- tinctive. And next time I come over, I'11 be better prepared to loo_ for it.
CC: Okay. I remember that one, that was in the edge of the plotter, wasn't it?
LMP-LM: Roger, Tony.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony. I've got the EVA maps out and as I - as I can see - gather here, we got two - two maps and one return chart. Is that what you agree with?
CC: I'11 see; wait a second.
CC: Okay, Charlie. That looks good here.
LMP-LM: Okay. I'm going to leave the - optimistically leave the walking traverse maps in the cabin.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony. The ETB is stowed over in my corner.
LMP-LM: And you know in training, I could barely lift this thing, and this 1/6, it's one finger.
CC: This tells me we should do more work on the Moon.
LMP-LM: Oh, I'11 say.
LMP-LM: How's the ECS looking to you now, Tony?
CC: Right now, it's looking pretty good.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony. We've done all of your sequence here. We got the suits off and stowed, the cabin con- figured, and I guess we're ready to go to an eat period and bed down. Okay?
CC: Okay. i've got a little bit of a checklist change I'd like to read up to you here when you're ready. It's in the Surface Checklist.
CC: Okay. This debriefing with Houston will be at 106:28. The time now is 106:35, so we're real close on that. Your eat period is to start 106:43. And then the PLSS and 02 and H2O recharge we'11 skip. The feedwater recharge we'11 skip. On to the next page. The presleep at 107:28, and we'11 skip the - the computer work there, that first line under presleep. And the rest period will begin at - and the rest period will begin at 107:53; and number 8, the next - the next step will be at 115:53. That will be postsleep. Again, in that section, three-quarters of the way down the page, we'11 skip the computer work. And the eat period will be at 116:18.
LMP: Stand by. Hey, you lost me, Tony. Okay. Here we go on page 3-7, postsleep. Go ahead.
CC: Roger. Postsleep on page 3-7. Step 8 there - or my number 8 - is at 115:53, that's postsleep. And then three-quarters of the way down that page under postsleep, there is some computer work, PRO, VERB 37 ENTER. We'11 drop all of that. Eat period will begin at 116:18, and the last line on that column is top-off PLSS 02, we'11 delete. Okay. On the EVA-2 planning with Houston, we'11 skip all that, and then we'11 don suits on the next page 3-8. We'11 don suits at 117:03. Okay, and at the end of that page - -
LMP-LM: We copy.
CC: Okay, and at the end of that page we'11 go to page 2-5.
CC: Okay, and we'11 prep for EVA-i at 117:53, and then - from then on, we're nominal.
LMP-LM: Okay. At 2-5, what was the time?
CC: 117:53.
LMP-LM: Okay, copy. Let me go through this now. Okay. We've doffed the PGA, we're - EVA debriefing with Houston comes next as step 2. Step 3 is the eat period.
LMP-LM: Turn the page. Step 4 - go ahead.
CC: Okay. Just to get our steps numbered straight here, I guess assigning numbers to these things. Debriefing with Houston is step 4, eat period is step 5. And the times you read were right, and then the presleep is step 6 and the - each number goes on from there.
LMP-LM: Okay. Presleep is 6, then we wake up for post- sleep, and that's number 7.
CC: Roger. Rest period is number 7.
LMP: And we got a - oh, okay, rest period is 7. I see. Okay. And then 8 is postsleep.
LMP: And skipping the computer activity stuff, number 9 is the eat period, and we delete the top-off the PLSS; we turn the page, we skip - well, we skip EVA-2 planning; we turn the page and that step, don suits, is next.
CC: Right; that's number 10.
LMP-LM: And that's step 10. Okay. Then we go to 2-5, and we're just about back to nominal, then.
CC: Roger. And that's step 11 on 2-5.
LMP-LM: Copy.
CC: Okay, have a good meal.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony. Let's - let's do the debriefing. We don't really - I'd like to describe for a LM window description. We had so much practice at that, I'd like to see how I could do.
CC: Have at it. We'11 take any words you've got. We expended all our questions a few minutes ago with John, and in fact I didn't even have to ask any; he just answered them all, so - but press on.
LMP-LM: Okay. Looking out at 12 o'clock on the horizon, there is a very hilly subdued region - well, let's say hilly terrain at 12 o'clock that goes on out of view around to 11. It's a rolling with white pockmarked craters there, and I'd say that's maybe 50 to 100 meters above the surrounding terrain where we are. As you move around from 1 to 3 o'clock approaching the - at about 1 o'clock, I would say we can see maybe a kilometer or so, but it might be very deceiving on that distance and we see more rolling terrain similar in albedo. It's a light gray with fresh craters being white. As we come on to 3 o'clock - 2:30 to 3 - the near ridge that was on our map so that blocks out North Ray and Stone Mountain is, correction, Smoky is really there and it's about a - oh, a 3- to 4-degree slope, and the ridge maybe goes up 10 to 15 meters. As we come into the near field at 12 o'clock (clears throat) it, excuse me, at about - in front of the LM maybe 50 to 100 meters, there's this other low ridge that we described, beyond that we can see a depression or - and then it rises again to another ridge, which is probably - goes into Spook Crater. I think I can see Spook on the horizon at about my 12 o'clock position. As we - that is boulder covered. The largest boulder I see is perhaps 2 to 3 meters in (clears throat) width, and they're angular and those are - there are three of those boulders, and one is at 12. The other two are over at about - on that second rise away from us at about 1:30, and I'd say those boulders and smaller down to 1 meter cover maybe 1 percent of the surface. The trafficability out that way looks good as far as boulders go. It's going to be up and down though. As we come into 2:30 from 50 to 150 meters, I've already described that bright fresh crater with the small blocks around it, more cobbles really. Beyond that, there are two other craters, which sort of trend into this depression that runs north-south here. There's a - a boulder beyond that at 2:30, which is par- tially buried. It has a good fillet on the south side, to the north side, and to the east side, there's no fillet at all. As we come on into 3 o'clock in the near field, I see a good size crater, perhaps 30 meters to 50 meters at 2 o'clock on the inboard side, that's my side of this ridge, and we have maybe 10 percent of the surface covered with blocks of less than half a meter. Over. 70/5 Tape
CC: Very good, Charlie. Where again was this boulder with the fillet?
LMP-LM: It's at about 2:30, maybe a couple of hundred meters out, and it's on the in - on this side of the ridge that trends east-west here, that blocks out Smoky.
CC: Okay. Could it be sliding down the ridge, and that's why the fillet's on the south?
LMP-LM: That - that might be the reason. I was just going to say, it's downslope so that might have been what happened.
CC: I got you.
LMP-LM: Though - though the slope doesn't appear that steep, Tony.
CC: Okay. How about the Buster area? Can you identify that?
LMP-LM: Boy, that's really - We sure saw it on descent. I don't see it right now. There's a bright ray - a bright crater to the right, maybe 50 meters of what I think is Spook, which is probably Buster, but I really wouldn't swear to it.
CC: Okay. Can you tell boulders over there?
UNKNOWN: There's not a one, as far as I can see.
CC: Very good, Charlie. You're right up to your old peak.
LMP-LM: Coming down on - Okay, coming down, Tony, on descent it looks - as John has described, there's a distinct ray pattern across our landing site from South Ray, and the boulders get - effectively disappear by [sic] we get to Palmetto. And then they don't reappear again until almost the flank of North Ray. You can see that depression that can trends southward out of North Ray, and you see the ridge line that I think will be an excellent way to climb up to North way - Ray in the Rover. Now this was all from 5000 feet, so I might be a little off on that, but at least the general impression was good. We could see Dogleg, we could see Cat; all of the craters that were on the stops were plainly visible. Hopefully, they'11 be so when we start navigating on the ground.
CC: Very good. You were mentioning the boulders and the rays from South Ray. The ray itself, could you map out what extent it was, or was it just the whole general area?
LMP-LM: It was a pretty wide ray coming across here. I would say from - It goes from our position perhaps to Spook. And maybe behind us maybe another 100 meters or so.
CC: Very good. How about left-right extent, did it go all the way back to South Ray?
LMP-LM: Well, you'11 have to ask John that. I didn't - couldn't see out that way. As we - The biggest block that I saw was one we flew over which is maybe 100 meters to 200 meters behind us, and it looked like Volkswagen size.
UNKNOWN: John is off coremmomentarily. He'11 be back up in a little bit, and I'm going to start the chow.
LMP-LM: And, Tony, I wouldn't give you 2 cents for that orange Juice as a hair tonic; it mats it down completely.
CC: Well, that might be the point. We'd like to go your suit GAS RETURN back to CABIN. Give it a try.
LMP-LM: Okay. We'11 try it in CABIN. We also tried this in orbit and we got the same sound, Tony. We're going to CABIN now,
LMP-LM: Okay, it gives us the same sound.
CC: Okay, we'd like to go back to EGRESS.
LMP-LM: Hey, Tony. I tell you what it is. I Just opened the CABIN GAS RETURN and it stopped it. What it was is that the CABIN GAS RETURN check valve is not working right. The flow is great now.
LMP-LM: Our configuration is SUIT GAS DIVERTER, PUSH-CABIN, sounds and CABIN GAS RETURN to OPEN, and everything normal.
CC: Okay. We'd like to leave you that way.
LMP-LM: Okay. Have you guys got a suggestion of what meal you want us to eat?
CC: We' re working that one.
LMP-LM: I got day 5, meal B.
CC: I guess we'd like you to just go ahead with your lunar first meal. I guess that deserves some champagne, I don't know.
LMP-LM: Well, like John said earlier, we're definitely not going to get scurvy; we've got so much orange drink here.
UNKNOWN: Okay, Tony. We're going to eat day 5, meal B.
CC: Okay. Was that Dog?
LMP-LM: Bravo, as in "boy."
LMP-LM: Houston, John finally found his spoon.
CDR-LM: Hello, Tony. Back on comm. Tony?
CDR-LM: I can't see how far the rays ... I Just assumed that. This is a blocked view we're in from South Ray. It goes about 100 meters out at 10 o'clock and goes over a ridge and disappears. The next time I see it, it's at South Ray, which is, you know, pretty far away from here. South Ray is a doggone interesting crater. I wish - I wish we could get to it. The boulders on the west rim of it are Just thick and white as they can be, and in the middle of it - you know, on your map where it looks like it's a depression - there appears to be a brown - a sort of a gray patch of dirt or something that was thrown out of - out of that side of it. And then on the north, there's another ray of very white boulders coming out of it. Of course, we could see the ray pattern l°ng before pitchover. At 22,000, I was able to get _y nose up against the window and see the clue to where we were was South Ray. Because at 22,000 and at 60-degree pitch angle, we couldn't even see Stone Mountain or any of the things in the rear, but you Just didn't have any doubt in your mind that that big crater, and the way the pattern went, you work your around the pattern - I used the same gages to find out where we were going to land that we used on the LMA. The inverted "V" off of Stubby; Cove, Trap, Stubby, Wreck, Trap, and it works into Cove, Hidden Valley, and into Spook and from Spook off those small craters into Double Spot. And, I think we ended up landing right by one of the smaller craters that sort of - sort of form a hook off the side - the north side of Spook, going back into Double Spot, and I think we're about 50 meters from it at 9 o'clock, but - -
CC: Very good. How about the albedo?
CDR-LM: I can't - -
CC: How about the albedo?
CDR-LM: Tremendous - tremendous difference in albedo. On the North Ray is pure white - South Ray is pure white, and it blends into a gray, and then over here by us, it's almost totally gray. I guess / you - you just get the feeling that these rocks may have come from somewhere else. There's a big subangular rock that I see at 10 o'clock, no, at 11 o'clock at about 100 meters, that I would sure like to go over and look, because it looks like it's just one big piece of whatever rock it is.
CC: Charlie, I was wondering about - -
UNKNOWN: Oh, and I do happen to see a white glass in the bottom of it.
CC: I was wondering about the albedo on your surface chart, on the strips and things, whether the ray - the rays are as obvious as they are on the high Sun angle chart that you're carrying, or whether they look very much different at the low Sun angle.
CDR-LM: No, they're not, I don't think. I can - I can see from here down to - Survey Ridge and it is - the albedo on there is a lot lighter. It's a general gradual downslope from our landing point to Survey Ridge, and it looks like it drops maybe a hundred meters and then starts to go right back up Smoky Mountain. I guess you could see on a contour map where the low spot is.
CDR-LM: But there are some strange looking craters over there on Stone Mountain, and the albedo contrast is really - really pronounced in those craters. There's some - It may be a function of shadow, we better wait until we get over there. I hesitate to say, they almost look like bit - Well, they must be impact craters, I guess.
CC: Okay. I was Just wondering about whether you could recognize whether you're on a ray by albedo as well as the boulder content.
CDR-LM: I think you're going to be able to; but, boy, you're not going to pick up a contact; it's just going to - it's - you know, it just tails out into something.
CC: Outstanding, that's better than I thought.
CDR-LM: You're not going to be able to work across the contact. But you mainly would do it by the white boulders in the ray, I think. I can see, on ridge lines - from here, I can see three different rays out of South Ray, I believe. Have to go down there and look at them to make sure. They seem to be riding on the ridge lines, although that's probably deceptive because I can't see down in the - I can't see down in the rolls.
LMP-LM: Tony, one other comment from my side, distances are pretty deceiving here for me. I'm looking out over John's shoulder, and it looks like to me you could throw a rock into South Ray from our present position; which is, I know, impossible. A second comment has to do with the orbital, since we got so muck [sic] so much look at the ground sailing around waiting to come down. Everywhere that we could see - everywhere we saw the ground, which is Just about the whole sunlit side. In the crater walls and on the ridges, you had to - we had the same lineation that the Appllo 15 pho- tography showed on Hadley Delta and Hadley Mountains. It was really remarkable how in the crater walls primarily, and in the ridges, and it gave you the impression that it was a fracture pattern that was all trending parallel to the - concentric around the craters, in the craters and - on the ridge, though they were sort of either parallel to the ground or at some depth, be what that may. Over.
CDR-LM: And I'm looking out here at Stone Mountain, and I got a picture of it, and it looks like it's got - looks like somebody has been out there plowing across the side of it. The benches just look like one sort of terrace right after another, right up the side. And they sort of follow the contour of it right around.
CC: Any differences in the terraces?
CDR-LM: No, Tony, not that I can tell from here. Those terraces could be rays out of Stubby or something like that.
CC: Okay. You mentioned two different rock types.
CDR-LM: I can see - I can see Stubby has a - Right at the edge of Stone, Stubby has got much steeper walls going off of Stone Mountain than I originally imagined it. It's - I don't think Stone Mountain came up to Stubby and stopped.
CC: Okay. You think Stubby is punched into the edge - -
CDR-LM: Well, that's nV guess from here but there again, it's - the thing is so steep that the whole side of Stone Mountain right now from a good half of it is in shadow.
CC: Okay. Go ahead, Charlie. One thing, you mentioned two rock types - the black and white ones and then the all white ones. Do you see anything else?
LMP-LM: Yes, there was one right out in front of the LM here, Just right down at the - just to the right of the footpad that looks like a breccia to me, Tony. Or - either that or an indurated regolith. We'11 tell you when we get out.
LMP-LM: Tony, we'11 give you an analogy of what that black and white rock looks like. It's really a gray and white and looks like a granitic rock with vel_ large crystals to it, though I kind of doubt th at.
CC: Outstanding. You're really whetting our appetites.
UNKNOWN: There are really some interesting rocks out here. I see some that are pure snow white, and we've got the whole run - we've got the whole run of them. It's hard to tell at this Sun - at this sunlight, which is so bright on the surface, just exactly what color these things are, even with the naked eye. You know, it's very deceptive. I swear I see one out there with some pink in it, bu% we'd better wait until we get out. We'11 pick it up and make sure.
LMP-LM: What do you call tomato soup made with cold water, Tony?
CC: Awful.
LMP-LM: John says cold tomato soup. chance,
CC: Hey, Charlie. When you get a could you take a look at that ridge at 12 o'clock, which you described as 50 to 100 meters out, and see if that continues on around 010 and 9?
CDR-LM: Yes, it does.
CDR-LM: Okay, continues on around to my side.
LMP-LM: John's original observation was that we look like we're in a big old subdued crater, and that's really what it looks like, Tony.
LMP-LM: Man, those black and white rocks really look interesting, Tony. I just can't wait to grab one of those.
CC: I tell you, Charlie, we feel the same way.
LMP-LM: In fact - In fact, the impression you get is that it's - it almost looks like the color of labradorite.
CDR-LM: Oh, Charlie.
LMP-LM: Tony, I guess it's really a bluish cast, instead of - instead of real black to me, but in this Sun it looks bluish.
CC: Right, we understand.
CDR-LM: Well, we'11 bring you a small one of each. I'11 tell you one thing, I'm glad we brought the rake, because we - we really can do it.
CDR-LM: We can get a rake sample out. We can get a rake sample out in front of the - the lunar module with one scoop.
CC: Okay. And when you get a chance, we'd like you to stow those hoses. I guess we don't have enough friction in there, and the water separators are running wild. Okay. And if you can pull your- selves away from the window there, we'd like you to hold to the schedule of starting presleep in about 20 minutes.
CDR-LM: How can we start presleep in 20 minutes when we haven't even gotten to eat yet, Tony? For goodness seke.
CC: Okay. Hey, the back room gave you a bravo on your descriptions there.
UNKNOWN: I'm like a little kid on Christmas Eve, Tony.
LMP-LM: It really is neat to have a gravity field around to set stuff on. That is really the cat's meow. (Laughter)
LMP-LM: Okay. The hoses are hooked back up, Tony. You should see some decrease in the separator.
CC: I think I know how you feel, Charlie° I'm pretty turned on myself.
LMP-LM: Tony, how is Casper doing?
CC: Say again, Charlie.
UNKNOWN: How is Casper doing?
CC: Everything's fine up there. I just looked over occasionally. You've been keeping me so occupied here, but they've got no problems.
CDR-LM: Super.
CDR-LM: Boy, you can't imagine how nice this 1/6 gravity is. This is the first time I've been able to eat soup without knowing whether I was going to eat i_ or take a bath in it.
LMP-LM: And, Tony, John and I'd just like to give our thanks to the backroom guys and everybody that worked so hard on Casper's problem, giving us a chance to get here.
CC: Roger, Charlie. I think everybody around here appreciates their Job.
CDR-LM: Gee, I'm sure glad somebody was able to come to that conclusion, because it sure looked black there for a while, didn't it?
CC: You betcha.
CDR-LM: I'd like to get somebody to put into words to the big Sim Troop in the sky and tell Him to let's make it a little more nominal from here on out.
CC: I'm all for that.
CC: That was too much like a sim.
CDR-LM: Go ahead, Tony.
CC: Would you verify that the 02 demand REGs are in CABIN?
CDR-LM: That's verified.
CC: Okay. We copy that. It looked like the pressure was dropping down a little bit.
CC: And while you're eating there, I might brief you on a couple of things. At about 108 hours, which is about time you'11 be going to bed there, the RCS pressure will build up to the point where you'11 get an RCS light again. And Just reset, there's nothing to worry about. And then some- time Just before you wake up in the morning, you may very well get a second caution light and alarm when the thrust pressure - helium thrust pressure 70/15 Tape gets built back up to 1700. And if you go to he- lium monitor on the TEMP/PRESS gage there, that'11 can go away. There's no way we inhibit that. Thank
CDR-LM: Okay, Tony. you.
CDR-LM: Okay. In other words, we're going to wake up twice tonight already, huh?
CC: Yeah, probably. The first one should go off be- fore you get to bed, though. But that second one will probably come on before - just before you should wake up.
CDR-LM: Okay. How much - how much sleep from the time when want we start to bed do you us to get?
CC: Eight hours.
CDR-LM: Understand, an 8-hour rest period.
LMP-LM: Okay_ Tony. We're about to fill the drink bags, and what we're going to do is refill the ones we had this morning, and use just with - just plain water. Over.
LMP-LM: Copy that, Tony?
CC: I already copied that. We're just trying to figure out - I wonder why you're not using the Gatorade? orange ... or Juice ... drank drank
UNKNOWN: Well, we one bag. Okay, we one bag. The stuff we filled from the command module this morning we drank. And that leaves us with two bags for two subsequent EVAs. And we could fill one of the other bags and just drink water on the third or whatever you want us to do.
CC: Oh, we don't care. Do whatever you want there. Water's fine.
LMP-LM: Yeah, I think we'd rather save the fortified stuff till the last. understand.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony. What's our GET right now?
CC: 107:31.
LMP-LM: Okay. What - Who do you want on biomed tonight?
CC: Okay, Charlie. It's your turn.
LMP-LM: That's what I was afraid of. Okay. You've been looking at me since landing so we'11 just stay right here.
CC: Okay. Okay, while you're worrying about that, your comm configuration for the night will be S-BAND POWER AMPLIFIER, SECONDARY, as present. The TEL_RY will be LO, VOICE will be DOWN VOICE BACKUP, RANGE will be OFF and as I said you're on biomed.
LMP-LM: Okay, starting - go through that again.
CC: Okay, it's S-BAND POWER AMPLIFIER, SECONDARY as TELEb_'I'RY,LO, present, ¥OICE will be DOWN VOICE BACKUP, RANGE, OFF and you're on biomed.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony, we have DOWN VOICE BACKUP, biomed lights, TELEMETRY, LO. How did you read?
CC: Okay, you're pretty weak there for a second Charlie. Try it again.
LMP-LM: Okay, DOWN VOICE BACKUP, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Over.
CC: Okay, that's much better.
CC: Okay, at your convenience I have some changes to your emergency lift-off checklist in the Surface Checklist. Just give me a call when you're ready to to take it.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony, I'm ready to copy, if you'11 give me a page. 70/17 Tape
CC: Okay, it's in the Surface Checklist 11-1.
LMP-LM: Okay, you speak.
CC: Okay, on the PGNS activation - it's down in the bottom left-hand side. The last entry there is "PRO and hold in STANDBY light off." Cross that line out. And add the line underneath CB or cir- "LGC/DSKY, cuit breaker panel 11, close."
CC: Okay, on the second column, they have a correction to the checklist , it says "Circuit breaker 16'p'- "Circuit breaker panel 16 and INVERTER 1, close." That should read "Circuit breaker panel 11 INVERTER l, close." Then we'd like to insert - -
LMP-LM: Okay, got it.
CC: Okay, and we'd like to insert underneath that line "Circuit breaker panel 16, INVERTER 2, close, and INVEI_TER switch to 2."
LMP-LM: Okay, INVERTER to 2, and cross out INVERTER 1.
CC: Right. Okay on 11-2, underneath on the left-hand upper side you have asterisk CB 11 and 16, under- neath that line write in "P ephemeris update if available for MSFN."
LMP-LM: Okay, is that an up-link or do we load?
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony, John thinks it's VERB 25 907 ENTER, 1706 ENTER, and don't load the ephemeris, and I think that's correct.
CC: Roger, Charlie; that's correct.
LMP-LM: Okay, go ahead. Any other words.
CC: Right. On - I've got on your circuit breaker configuration here, I've got some that will be open and you might as well note that they will be open and that's okay. So on 11-3 panel i1, first line there, S-band antenna will be open.
LMP-LM: Keep going.
CC: Okay. And on 11-4, fourth line, panel 16, S-band antenna will be open.
CC: Okay, and we go on to 11-6 now. You have the setup for your steerable antenna and you can just cross all that; and that's the end of it.
LMP-LM: Okay. We copy all of those updates. The only one I don't understand is on 11-1, on the PGNS activa- LGC/ tion, ... we crossed out the PRO and added an DSKY closed and right before that it says LGC/DSKY closed.
CC: Okay. You're right. That's an error on our part. Just cancel out our addition.
LMP-LM: Okay. No problem. I Just thought maybe something went by me, there.
LMP-LM: Okay, Tony, if that's everything, we're ready to go to bed.
CC: Okay, we're through with everything here, and we're all set to let you go to bed. You're going to bed, I'11 have you know, a whole 6 minutes early. I guess the government can allow you to have that time off.
LMP-LM: Okay. I'11 be on comm. John will be off comm, and we're going to turn off the lights now.
CC: Okay. We'11 see you tomorrow, and we're sure looking forward to it.
LMP: Hey, so are we. Guess what. You turn all the lights off and it doesn't get dark. It's daylight outside. Hey, Tony, one final word. Our ECS con- figuration for sleep is PUSH-CABIN, CABIN GAS RETURN in AUTO, and the rest of the thing as advertised. Over. Correction - CABIN GAS RETURN, OPEN.
CC: Okay, that looks good here.
UNKNOWN: Okay, Tony, we'd like to thank everybody for the great job of regrouping, and getting back to what seems to be pretty nominal from now on; and we'11 see you in the morning. I guess you can give us a reveille call over the squawk box here. Over.
CC: Okay, I'11 sure do that. I'11 come in and I'11 whistle something here.
LMP-LM: Ail right. Good night.
LMP-LM: Well, I guess I can't stop talking. One final observation, Tony, is that due to the lackof _ _ dust that we had on landing and the fact that we can see blocks embedded in the side of these craters, here, I kind of got the distinct impres- sion that the regolith is not too thick around here, and we ought to maybe think about where would be the thickest place to - in order to get the drill in. Over.
CC: Okay. That's a good observation. From the films you've seen of other descents, do you think the dust was less than any of the others?
UNKNOWN: Well, John will have to really comment on that, but as far as my side goes, the little I looked out there was by far - we could see - or, I could, on my side, see right on down through it - the dust film.
CC: Okay, and from your - listening to your descent, it sounded like you picked it up about 90 feet.
LMP-LM: It was a little bit less than that. It was about 80, maybe 75.
CC: I have a feeling you and I could Just sit up all night and talk about this.
LMP-LM: Well, that's all you're going to hear from me. Good night.
CC: (Laughter) Okay, good night.
CMP: I tell you, it sure is impressive how much - how much the scenery changes as the Sun angle changes and how rapidly that goes down.
CMP: Your plot boards show me over Albategnius, you say?
CMP: Does the plot board show me over Albategnius?
CMP: Okay. Now let me tell you a little something here. Just to the north and mostly to the west of Albategnius, the ground - and I think in the higher Sun it's going to look like - look a lot like Imbrium sculpture but not here. It has the mottled effect and the same appearance that the Descartes area had at the same Sun angle yesterday. And that's almost directly south of - it's a little south and a little bit to - of Ptolemaeus, and it's a little bit to the east of Alphonsus.
CC: Roger. You ought to be coming up on a terminator now. Is that right? Pretty close to it?
CMP: Yes, sir. My view is disappearing rapidly.
CC: You should be over Ptolemaeus now.
CC: Casper, for your information, everything in the SIM bay is looking good now.
CMP: Okay. I Just saw something that - I really don't know what to make - I'm in the - I think the space- craft is Just about in the dark, but not quite. We've passed the ground terminator, and I'm lookin_ out of window number 3 down towards the ground. I'm trying to get a preview of what's coming in earth- shine. And there's a bright flash that's going along out there. At first, I thought there was something that was on the deck, but it's apparently a piece of debris that's in orbit with us. It's sitting there, tumbling over and flashing.
CC: It's traveling along with you.
CMP: It moves across the ground, so it must be a piece of debris. Yeah.
CMP: As a matter of fact, I look around now and there's quite a few of those.
CC: Can you get any idea how far away they are - -
CMP: - - Depends on what effect that has on - NO] I can't, Hank. It's Just a piece of something that's out there, and it's tumbling so that it gives you an occulting reflection. No field at all for it, but it's moving in approximately the same velocity that we are.
CC: Ken, in reference to your observations of Crater King, we got some ideas about those swirls that are northwest of King. And we'd like for you to get a comparison of those with the swirls of Ibn Yunus. And I wonder if those also have topographic expression?
CMP: Okay. I'm too - I'11 have to do that some other time, because today I'm too far south to see those things up by Ibn Yunus. I can just barely see up to Neper.
CMP: But we sure need to keep that in mind.
CC: And another thing you might be thinking about if you get an opportunity on some round is to get us a description of the area north of Crater King, including the Soviet Mountains.
CMP: Yeah. I was thinking of looking at that. I really hadn't planned to spend much time on King this time. I was going to Just kind of look at the - look at the ole crater there. But, got so inter- ested in it that - it looked like there's another crater that's Just to the east of King that has, say, a little bisected, central feature Just like King. You know the thing that makes that - that little Y-shape. And it looks the same way. That's kind of - kind of interesting, I thought.
CC: Yeah. I guess we hadn't seen that in the photos.
CMP: I guess, Hank, I ought to be passing Flamsteed now.
CC: Roger. That looks right.
CMP: It's really impressive how much you can see in the dark.
CMP: I don't believe you can see as much now as you could last night. Of course, partly we're - I'm higher now than I was when I looked at it last night. And the Earth is noticeably smaller, so I guess it's getting - it's losing it's reflective ability rather rapidly.
CMP: I was also very impressed with the way you could see the - the LM outline in earthshine. That was something I had not anticipated. Last night as we came across - well let me see what it was - it starts with an H - over on the western rim. Hevetius. Yeah. We drove across that last night, and you could really see the floor patterns in that beautifully.
CMP: Okay, Hank. Let's see_. I owe you acrew status report from this morning. Right?
CMP: Okay. Let's see if I can give you that thing now.
CMP: Okay. Alfa 1, 22047; Alfa 3, 6; Alfa 4, negative. Bravo 1, 15044; Bravo 3, 6; Bravo 4, negative. Charlie 1, 21095; Charlie 3, 7; Chariie 4, 1 Seconal.
CMP: Okay. Now I'm going to try to go down the menus here. We're looking for day 4. Is that correct?
CMP: Okay. On commander, meal A, you can delete the mixed fruit, and meal B, you can delete pea soup; mean C, delete chicken stew and add a chocolate pudding. For me, you can take meal A and delete the mixed-fruit. You can delete the bread and Jelly. On Bravo, you can delete the pea soup, meatballs. On Charlie, you can delete the chicken stew, and I guess that takes care of those things. The reason for so many of these - we all deleted these canned things, because we got them all over the spacecraft last time, and we decided that we really couldn't afford to do that again.
CMP: Okay. And let me find Charlie's here.
CMP: Okay. Here's Charlie's. And on meal A, you can delete mixed fruit and jelly. Meal B, you can delete sugar cookies. Meal C, you can delete the pudding and the chocolate bar.
CMP: Now we're coming across Hevelius again, and I can see Grimaldi and a couple of fractures that go across its rim. You can really see a lot of detail here. You can see the rilles, you can see - as everybody pointed out, the - they look like ribbons that are Just dropped down, and they go all the way across the crater like Hevelius. And it looks like they go out from ..., and they come down - in fact, they go all the way down to Grimaldi. And Just before they get to Grimaldi, they run into a crater. And it looks like they might have been : filled a little bit. In fact, it looks the same way that some of the rilles that dot the Fra Mauro, look like they've been filled in. Then there is a very smooth patch that's lined up with this graben that runs from there to Grimaidi. No, I'm sorry. I'm calling Riceioli, Grimaldi. The crater I'm talking about now is Riccioli, and it's got quite a few fractures that run out. And it looks like a flow pattern. It looks just like looking down on a - on a long tongue of lava like we've seen ter- restrially. I don't mean to infer that there is lava, but I'm just saying that it has the same appearance. It is coming out of the northeastern corner of Riccioli. And it has what looks like little ripple patterns on it, like you'd expect bands, for flow but they aren't quite as arcuate, and they don't take quite the same - the same con- centric pattern that you'd expect from a flow front. But this little crater coming down from Hevelius - the rille it comes down to there and then it hits the crater, and then it gets a very, very smooth spot. And then it runs in and you can see contin- uations of these lineaments right on across Riceioli.
CC: Roger. That sounds real interesting.
CMP: Riccioli has quite a few elongate little craters around it. Several of them that are - elongate - and one of them is quite long. I'd say it's maybe - it's curved and looks like it's maybe 10 kilo- meters long. And it has Just a slight arc to it. But, it is a very elongate feature. Now, we are moving into material that's very hilly and I don't see a lot of small craters. I don't see a lot of bright ones. You can see bright rims in here quite well. The things that do stand out to the west of Riccioli are the very dramatic cross cutting graben- type rilles. They cross, in one place here, almost 90 degrees to each other. Looks like I am looking at a very subdued old basin. And, these things go across the hills and right on across the basin floor. And, I'm not sure, but I would guess that some of these things - other lineaments I am seeing - they're running toward the northeast or more than likely things coming out of Orientale. I should be coming in towards the outer rim of the Orientale Basin. You get-the same kind of impression of - at the terminator when the earthshine runs out as you do when sunshine runs out. The only thing it's different is you don't - you don't get to see quite as much of the - everything is a lot more subdued. And, you don't get shadows that are nearly as long. Or, at least not as bright. There's also, running down here - there is one ridge and I am sure I am looking in a ridge instead of a grahen. I've got grabens and cut it. But this ridge that runs northeast, southwest along with some of the graben. And, it seems it's one of the first big ridges I've seen that cuts up over a highlands clump of material. That's all Just to the - Just to the west of Riccioli.
CC: Ken, we have - -
CMP: Okay, Houston, we are getting ready to - -
CC: Ken, we've got your Flight Plan here - -
CMP: Go ahead, we're ready for LOS, so - -
CMP: Okay. Do you have time to read it to me?
CC: I think so; if you are rea dy to copy.
CMP: All right. Can you tell me where I should start?
CC: Okay. LOS will be at 107:02. Approx - -
CMP: Okay. Should I be in the Flight Plan or should I be writing in something separate?
CC: I think you better write in something separate.

CMP: Outstanding. You guys really do good work. Okay, I think I've got everything here. I didn't have any questions about it. You want me - How much time do we have? I don't know whether it's worth trying to read back or not?
CC: Okay, we've got 2 minutes to LOS. You don't have to read back. I think - -

CC: Okay, we got less than a minute to go. Stu will
CMP: Ail right, Hank. Thank you very much. You've done a good day's work. See you tomorrow evening.
CC: Roger, Casper. Houston standing by.
CMP: Well, hello there.
CC: And, Casper. We'd like you to have - go back to REACQ on the high gain, please.
CMP: Okay. Every time I try that it looks like it does worse. Well, it's holding in there this time, I guess.
CC: And, Ken. Sometime, at your convenience, we'd like to have you push on your biomed sensors. Getting a little noise on the data. Just like to see something cleared up.
CMP: Okay. I'11 get to that in just a minute. I'm flapping right now with some - trying to make up the things we missed here. And I Just finished putting most of Sharonov and Mendeleev on magazine November November. And I'11 try to pick up the one that ... if you'11 tell me I can do it on November November.
CC: And, Casper. Could you give us a frame number on November November.
CMP: Okay. How about - ah - 1457
CC: Okay, 145. I believe that.
CMP: And, don't let me forget things like this pan camera thing coming up, because I am sitting here getting camera set up. I am going to try to get the earthshine sequence in this trip, too.
CC: Okay. Roger. We'11 give you a call.
CC: And, Ken, it's about time now. Within the next 15 seconds or so, if you want to get the PAN CAMERA, STANDBY STEREO on POWER.
CMP: Okay, thank you, sir. STANDBY, STEREO, pOWER. You've got it.
CMP: Well, I'11 tell you. Just a little reminder like that can go a long ways toward getting something done in here.
CC: Jolly good. We'11 try to please.
CC: Okay, Ken, you're 30 seconds from the T-start time on the pan camera.
CC: Ten seconds, Ken.
CMP: And, you've got it.
CC: Okay. Roger - -
CMP: Barber pole in gray and away she goes.
CC: Very good and I0N SOURCE, ON.
CMP: I0N SOURCE, ON.
CC: Okay. And, Ken, on those last November November, we'11 give you 30 frames on that one.
CMP: Okay. I guess it was scheduled for aho{her maga£ zinc, but I just don't have time to change it.
CC: No Sweat_ You got 30.
CMP: Okay. That should be plenty. And, I got the maga- zine XX loaded in the Hycon, and I am ready to go to work on that as soon as we get in the darkness. Well, maybe that won't work, because I guess you got a P52 and things coming for me.
CDR: Tony, you guys missed it by about 10 minutes. The RCS BEG A light just came on. Ken.
CC: Stand by on that,
CC: Okay, Ken, what we'd like for you to do after Sunside this pass, after you finish up here, is to get a good night's sleep. We're not showing you anything scheduled after that.
CMP: Okay, I thought there was a P52 or something I was supposed to get as soon as it got dark. I'11 - I can sneak that in there, too. I hate us to see miss very much of the things that we almost did.
CC: No, Ken. This - It's not scheduled. The last thing you need to - -
CC: - - do is 108 plus 50, where you go in to do the activities there in the flight plan; you go right into the presleep checklist and we'11 see you in the morning.
CMP: Oh, okay. Outstanding. Very good. Thank you.
CC: Okay, Casper, if we can have the HIGH GAIN to AUTO; please, sir.
CMP: Can you look in your plotboard and tell me approximately what my longitude is right now?
CC: Oh, Ken, it's probably about 70 East, something like that. You're Just coming across the western rim of Symthii there.
CMP: Okay, good enough.
CMP: Yes, here comes our old friend, Langrenus.
CC: Okay, Ken, we need barber pole ... - -
CMP: I guess you need a little barber pole, don't you? Okay, that should be i plus what we have.
CMP: Hey, Stu, if I put 3© frames on this Crozier, _ I won't get that first strip of Kant - Andel. You think about doing away with th e intervalometer and taking the pictures with less overlap and try to squeeze it all onto this one mag?
CC: Okay, stand by. Let's take a look at that, Ken.
CMP: Okay, I got a couple of minutes before I start.
CC: Okay, Ken, you can go ahead and disregard the intervalometer and try to get them both on that same mag.
CMP: Okay, thank you very much. I'm all set up to come up on Crozier.
CMP: Well, it looks like I ran out anyhow. I got 165 and the magazine's empty, and I just finished the strip of Crozier.
CC: Okay, I copy that.
CMP: That's on magazine November November.
CC: Okay. · //
CMP: And I'11 go see if I can get Papa Papa out here real fast.
CMP: Okay, Papa Papa is out and loaded. I'11 try to pick up Descartes to Andel with it.
CMP: Stu,.there is a definite textural similarity between the material or the bright spot by Descartes Crater and the things around Stone Mountain. However, it is a lighter albedo. It's a shade lighter and the line of demarcation seems to come along the long crater.
CMP: And another strange sight over here, I think it's Andel, that's where I'm supposed to be ending the strip. But there's another crater here that looks like it's flooded, except this same flooded material seems to run up on the outside. You can see a definite patch of this stuff that's run down inside an old crater. And that material at least lays on top of it, but it lays on top of things that are outside and higher. It's a very strange operation. I guess we'11 have to wait and let someone that knows what they're talking about look at the pictures.
CC: Ail righty, Ken. Sounds real interesting.
CMP: Man, this is unbelievable. It's really something. Everywhere you turn, there's something new. And let's see if we can get in the old SS on Ptolemaeus here.
CMP: Well, I'11 tell you what. I'm going to have to skip Ptolemaeus. The terminator is still on the rim.
CMP: Just for kicks, though, I'm going to show you one on frame SS that is really fascinating. And I'm Just on the eastern rim of Ptole_aeus. I mentioned it last time. I'm going to take a little strip of these.
CMP: And then see if I can get - yeah, that ought to be good enough. Okay, I took - I took it up to 20 frames, and I used about five of these on SS. And what I took it of was - This material that's on the eastern rim of Ptolemaeus has the same textural appearance in the - low that we saw in the Descartes formation, that being the stuff coming from the crater Descartes running north yesterday. An entirely different appearance than the rest of the terrain in the low Sun. I think there may be some interesting comparison there.
CC: Okay, Ken. Got that. And you're approaching 30 seconds to - the - -
CMP: Okay, going to end up pan camera off here somewhere.
CC: Roger; on my mark, you'11 be 25 seconds.
CC: MARK. And, Ken, Just turn the cameras off there. Then, before you continue on with those steps, I want to say something about those procedures on down at the bottom. I'm showing 6 - 7 seconds.
CC: MARK. I show T-stop. That's the pan camera and mapping camera.
CMP: Okay, they are STANDBY and OFF. I'11 wait 30 seconds before I take the IMAGE MOTION, OFF. Hey, thank you, Stu, that was a big help.
CC: Roger. And - I would - We're going to delete, on those procedures there, the MAPPING CAMERA, RETRACT; and the MAPPING CAMERA/LASER ALTIMETER COVER, _ · cLOsE. _-We're going to leave those out all _ight, and we'11 have a - a plan tomorrow on how we're · going to handle the mapping camera.
CMP: Okay. You do want the LASER, OFF, though. Is that correct? 71/5 Tape
CMP: Okay, the LASER is OFF now. The MAPPING CAMERA IMAGE going to STANDBY and the MOTION is coming OFF.
CC: Jolly good.
CC: And, Ken, a couple of other items. We're going to let the bat A charge all night, so we'11 just leave that as is.
CMP: Okay. Those batteries kinda put in a day's work, too, today.
