CMP: Yes, it goes all the way.
CDR: I'd like to have a reliable set of optics. It's really no computer ... and I'd like to have the whole thing working.
CMP: Hey - I'11 tell you - I'11 give you the thing to read that we - that we put together here. But with the roll-yaw thing. 8o you get out of plane, below the bull's-eye, and you Point - you cock the thing up until you - -
CMP: No, no, no, no. We're going to do the roll-yaw.
CMP: Which is really only roll. It's real easy. You end get out of plane - Aetua31y, you up pitch down below the bull's-eye out of plane - You cock the optics up - -
CDR: Yes, and then we Just roll over.
CMP: You Just roll. You put in an ORB P_TE roll. We could do this with - I'd like to, if, you know, if we get good at it later on, use the ORB RATE thing to see if one guy could do this by himself, when on the moon. You get the spacecraft going in ORB RATE automatically - -
CDR: The ya_ - yaw-roll or the - the pitch.
CMP: Why, you could do - you could do - X Y Z ....
CDR: I think it would be easier if one guy were doing it and could use the procedure we Just used except for pitch. CONj T A L Cumw wl Day6 435
LMP: Good point. Good point.
CMP: Yes, but it'd cost more here, too, ...
CMP: Well, anyway -
CDR: Okay. But that's an out-of-plane one; I thought we did anyway with the out-of-plane one when ... and we were only going to do the in-plane one.
CMP: No, we're doing the out-of-Diane one, because that was for the LM on.
CMP: Anyway, you get out there, and you Just set up a OPTICS. And then when I get locked on, you try and reach me in ORB RATE
CDR: If I pitch down, I'd ... see the horizon.
CDR: Yes. I -
CMP: Deke and I worked it out once where you Just yawed out of plane and pitched down and stayed right below the bull's-eye. And Frank Hughes said that Lovell and Borman had worked one out which you did a little different, which you roll and then pitch out of plane; and, that way, you've got your optics cocked up already which might be a little cheaper.
CMP: You - you roll - You're charging along in plane, heads up; you roll 90 degrees, then you pitch 55 degrees. Then you roll again, you get the optics - zero optics near the horizon. That's all there is to it.
CDR: Oh, you roll - -
CMP: I've never done that, but that sounds like - Why whichever don't you think about it, and do way you think is best? There's - there are two ways. One way, we're applying in plane - -
CMP: - - with an in-plane alignment. One way is to yaw out and pitch down and stay below gimbal lock. The other way is to roll while you're in plane and pitch up 55 degrees, which is not - That keeps you out of gimbal lock, too. Then your optics are and cocked, you have to roll to get the optics line of sight sort of perpendicular to the ground.
CDR: Yes, that's no - You end up with you not really being - not having your axis perpendicular to the plane.
CDR: You got the plane, like this, in the orbit here, like this. See, the optics really would rotate this way with respect to the plane, if you had a zero trunnion. And, you know - -
CMP: Yes, you want to have it - you want to start it as near zero as you can.
CMP: So you have as much articulation on - -
CMP: - - this as you go by.
CDR: Seems like you don't want to be pitched down.
CMP: I - I - That's what I thought, too, until - -
CDR: There's 55 degrees.
CDR: It seems to me like when you get over the target - you want to be - The target's right down here -
CDR: Yes, and we're going this way.
CMP: You'd like to be - like this? As you - as you come in to it, you'd sort of like to be like this, so that the optics has a full run. If the target's that here, and you're coming around the world like you know, and then you start your ORB RATE as you get over it. But you do your tracking out here. You only get about 40, 45 seconds, in earth. It t CO IR R [TTA L 6 really goes QUick.' Once you get the target, man, you really got to get on it. Anyway, think about it; do whichever way - -
CDR: It almost seems like it's the best way is if the plane were thi'sway - You would bet you ought to be yaw down 90 degrees, pitch down about 30.
CDR: in other words, you go like this; you're going to
CMP: Yes, I think that's better, too, but I don't know; it's six of one and half dozen of the other.
CDR: Well, listen, if you're through screwing around here, I'11 start - -
CMP: No, I want to run through the program once more.
CMP: A little detail.
CDR: Okay, I think I'11 go ahead and align the GDC here while we're waiting.
CMP: Yes, Just go to RATE while we're waiting.
CDR: Did you find all that stuff, Rasty?
LMP: Yes, I'm gradually finding it.
CDR: (Laughter) You're running it down. How many cameras - -
CC: Apollo 9, Houston through Carnarvon. Standing by.
CC: Roger. I Just wanted to make sure that you got the word that that landmark is 60 miles north of your track.
CDR: Roger; 60 miles north. Thank you. C
CDR: So that means you're going to have to yaw - yaw left.
CDR: Yaw to the left, that's right.
LMP: Can you do something here for me?
CDR: That ... little ... go up and go right through that ... found a place I might want to put the ca_era.
CDR: Hey, where do you want to stow this LM data? Why don't we leave it in the ISA? I'd sort of like to sort it out and start thinking about where we're going to put it, so why don't we Just leave it there for right now?
CDR: We've got some other books, and some other LM data books up there, too, that we want to get ...
CC: Apollo 9, Houston. 30 seconds LOS; Guam at 07.
CDR: Alright, Houston. Okay.
CMP: Ow'
CDR: Yes, that ought to do it ...
CDR: Well, I came up with a conclusion that we've got all the movie film we could possiblM use.
CDR: Yes. We didn't really get as much stuff done as I had hoped.
LMP: Well, I don't think we used as much film getting it done as we hoped - I mean, as we thought.
CDR: Well, I think we took pictures of everything we planned to. CC; .... E;¢T:AL i NTIAL 6

CDR: How high is it?
LMP: It's up at 186.
CDR: What's the limit? 220, isn't it? 225?
CDR: I don't know. 200, I guess, or 250; I don't They changed it everytime they went up to where ever they had the limit. (Laughter) Oh, goo_
LMP: Hey, we never did chlorinate the water.
CMP: Oh, that's right.
LMP: I think we'11 probably live.
CMP: Do you really think so?
LMP: I'm not sure. }
CDR: Oh, shoot! Look, I brought another map along Just so we'd have another map to look at to te] where we were. It's down in my suit, and I ha_ get it out ...
CMP: Okay, I think I got it squared away.
CMP: I think I got it squared away. Oh, look, there that landmark tracking, landmark ID, control mc time required to acquire and identify, comment, coordination n of optics and spacecraft motion, Okay. Well, I'11 put it in there and hope that AUTO optics drives.
CDR: Hey, does the ... and the mechanical drive ..., does it move now? Is it - -
CMP: No, it's still stuck ..,
CMP: Oh! Would you believe I Just looked in there, I looked right into the sun.
CDR: (Laughter) Yes, I'd believe that because the s Just now coming ? m I
CDR: Is there a - is there standard down there, too, Rusty? In the ISA?
LMP: Yes, I passed it up.'
CDR: Pass me the wide.
LMP: Hey, where in the hell did I put the standard? I got it out.
CDR: You gave me it. Wait a minute now; maybe you didn't. You have a standard over there? Alright, I have a standard over here.
CDR: Okay, I thought you passed me - Okay, then - -
LMP: No, I passed you two of them.
CMP: Okay, we got 27 minutes. I think I know - I know what I'm going to do. I want to make five marks, maybe.
CDR: I guess I might as well take sunrise photo for the flight.
CDR: (Singing) ... Oh, it looks ... 15.
CMP: Hey, maybe you guys want to take a - No, you won't be able to see it. Oh, I bet you will after -

CDR: Okay, now the thing that - the thing that's going to be tough is to be able to tell exactly where I am in roll.
CMP: Yes, I know it. How are you going to do that?
CDR: I'm going to be pitch down, I'm going to try to look out the window, and I'm going to try to get -
CMP: You ought to be able to shoot a horizon.
CDR: Yes. That's why I'm going to - that's why I want to go on over there and pitch down. iI
CMP: You want to be cocked up so that your Z-axis - - i

CDR: Go ahead, Houston. _ This is Apollo 9.
CC: 9, Houston. We'd like to verify that you are in PRIMARY and not NORMAL when you went through block _.
CDR: 0ops, I beg your pardon; I was in NORMAL.
CMP: I'11 go to - I'11 go PRIMARY for you, and do it.
CDR: ... MASTER ALARM ...
CC: 9, Houston. if you can hold off there, we're abou_ LOS. We'11 catch you first time in Hawaii on that.
CMP: Roger. I've got the data now, if you'd like it.
CDR: Are you eating again?
CDR: Now I know why you go down there into the lower equipment bay. All the time, I thought you were down there taking ...; you're down there eating.
CDR: Man, I get hungry.
CDR: You're really a nice guy. Sneak out on your buddies and eat.
LMP: It's the only way I ever get to ea+ in this outfit.
CMP: I hope it isn't cloudy.
LMP: No, it was nice and clear down there, Dave. IAL 6
CMP: They kind of like the sun-glint pictures, don't they?
CDR: Yes, as a matter of fact, they do.
LMP: No, you guys, don't use them all up. Wait until we get to a higher orbit. That's prettier up there.
CDR: How many pictures did we decide we had, Rusty?
UNKNOWN: can't tell because Dave has the procedures book.
CDR: You done with the procedures book, Dave?
CMP: No, I'm Just getting ready to start using it now.
CMP: Listen, without this crutch over here - Why, landmark tracking would be a zero; it probably will be a zero anyway.
CDR: Let's see; those quads we were sup!0osed to use were A and D, weren't they? A and D. B OFF, C
LMP: Got to hurry. I'm making myself nervous.
CDR: Making me nervous.
CMP: I don't mind your ... I know how to do that.
CMP: How about that? Actually, the son of a gun is really smart'
CDR: Don't do that_ I was - I was moving towards gimbal lock, and all of a sudden, bang, there it is; you know, and I - Oh, shoot'
CMP: Where are we? Over the Pacific, aren't we?
CMP: Have you rolled up yet to clock yourself?
CDR: No, I haven't, Dave. I'm still horizontal. ' IAL
CMP: Okay. Got 12 minutes. If you do that, I can- -
CDR: 12 minutes for what?
CMP: Until we start - mark it.
CDR: No, we don't.
CMP: Yes. We sure do.
CDR: What time do we start marking? I thought it was
CMP: No, 32. The pad was at 32.
CDR: Oh, okay. (Yawn) You have ...
CMP: Yes, that's out of the field of view.
CMP: Several times. Steady, steady according to R-B.
LMP: It's cloudy again.
CMP: Yes, so far. Hey, which way do we go? We're going to the right, huh? I mean I hate to tell you what we're coming up with. Lots of more clouds.
CDR: Yes. It was clear over BaJa this morning, so - As a matter of fact, it was clear over on the other side, too.
CMP: Do you remember what time that last pass was over the - What time did we start that other thing?
LMP: 124:00:20- Something - It was 124:03:48 that they
CMP: We got a long way to go, Jim, in roll.
CMP: I'd really l_ke to be seeing the horizon.
CDR: Okay, can we get them over there - -
CMP: Yes. _r
CDR: We're coming up on that right now.
CDR: Yes, it doesn't make any difference whether youc_ hear it or net.
CMP: Quarter of 4 ... which way is the land here?
CDR: It's ... back that way.
CMP: You see the Panama Canal?
LMP: We must be close to it; I think we might have passe it.
CMP: Do you know - do you know - Did We go across Venezuela or something?
LMP: ... you want to get it locked to target, Dave?
CDR: Yes. No, actually, when you were doing that, I didn't - didn't know what to do, so I was Just looking out the window here, and pretty soon - out here - pretty soon I saw the- coastline come up and ... the distance from BaJa and the Gulf ... are really quite low, but I couldn't see - I couldn't see the Gulf so we could ... past it. By then you were - I might have - ...
CMP: would have had the marks long before this - -
CDR: I needed you to tell me whether to roll fast or not, because - we - When we're cocked up like this I can't see down through that way.
CMP: Well, did you hear me marking?
CMP: ... Just perfect. I was right on it. But then, xt disappeared; I took about one ...
CDR: Okay, well, by then, see, I had -'I had started didn't ...
CMP: That was fine; that was Just right.
CDR: But I should have started a little earlier - -
UNKNOWN: Yes, probably a little -
CDR: - - because, as we came across - See, I thought you were looking instead of being right there. You were still over like this. And that's when I started rolling.
CDR: I couldn't even tell you how far ... whether it was the optics or the spacecraft, because I was having trouble getting on to target.
LMP: ... the optics or the ...
CDR: Are we pointed down at the ground now?
LMP: ... my side is.
CMP: And I tracked - two sets of ...
CDR: You tracked what?
CMP: Two sets of ... as you were coming across it. That's the ... track I've seen ... - -
LMP: I know,- -
CMP: - - which is the ...
LMP: - - but it worked fine on the clouds.
CMP: It's way off on the state vector ... Quite a ways
LMP: AUTO OPTICS, yes. ... This big island, really ... and ... the target ... It's as far from the target CC,; [; Day 6 447 over here as that island. It seems to me, I got to give you a state vector up there.
CDR: 0hh, let's see. Is there a scale on here anyplace?
CMP: No....
CDR: What? -- "
UNKNOWN: Pretty far off.
CDR: Pretty far off. Oh, shit, I'm going to have to waste some fuel here or go into gimbal lock.
CDR: Oh, we don't go to drifting flight until 127 ... Power down spacecraft at 127. And a filter Change.
CMP: Oh, look at that fUnny-looking planet. My God' ...
CDR: ... hold up, Dave. Hmm. I'11 be darnec_.
CMP: It's like a great big round cloud with a peak in the middle. Looks like a mountain.
CDR: Well, shoot, I hate to waste that gas, ...
CMP: You don't use much though.
CDR: ... Matter of fact, I did all of that in B - B roll - or B roll. I only had 6 seconds and I had B-1 and B - two B-roll thrusters on, and two A-pitch thrusters on, and two yaw-B thrusters on.
CDR: I think B is so hard to ...
CDR: Where is that update book that has the consumable redlines here?
LMP: It's in the update pad; I don't know where that is.
CDR: ... look at the map, Jim.
CDR: Do what? CC,
CMP: ... map?
CDR: Get out the other map, too, so ... map ..?
CMP: Probably too far off now. Oh, I see, I was going down the south of coast - coast of South America, that's what I was doing.
CDR: I think we're in the other orbit there. -+
CMP: Oh, okay. I was going across the middle of South America.
CDR: Oh, did you get that far, David?
CMP: Oh, shoot, I guess I better go ahead and ... Oh, I got a - a thought. Maybe we ought not to power down. the IMU
CDR: Why?
CMP: I'm not sure I can do a PS1 with ...
CDR: Well, I'm pretty sure you can't. I guess we could always maneuver the spacecraft .... the shaft and the ...
CMP: No, you go to - to zero,
CMP: Just go to zero.
CDR: Yes, okay. We got a couple or three REV's before that.
CMP: Rusty.
LMP: Yes. Yes, what?
CMP: Nothing .... those clouds.
LMP: Yes, they're broken clouds.
CDR: You got some more on landmark tracking tomorrow, Dave. L 6
CDR: Matter of fact, you have all the time. Holy Christmas, you do the landmark tracking all day long tomorrow!
CDR: Yes!
CDR: Yes, I thought they said today's was for ... Look, we're right down on top of a thunderstorm down there.
CDR: Man, we really do it tomorrow: P51, ... the update, P52, landmark tracking, ..., landmark tracking, P52, landmark tracking, P52, landmark tracking - -
CDR: - - landmark tracking, P52, landmark tracking - -
LMP: (Laughter) trying to - Shit, I want to look for a while.
CDR: Yes. Let's Just do that. Let's Just take an hour out for looking.
CMP: Where is that big map?
LMP: Right here.
CDR: Let's see if we can get a map update. Dave, drive the boat - drive the boat for a while Just to see if we get a gimbal lock. Let me go down and get the other map - I was going to throw out the weather map. I said, "No, don't do that; put it in my pocket." We've still got the SO 65 ...
CMP: ... No, we determine the landmarks, yet. I
