CDR: (Music: "Going Back To Houston")
CC: Roger, 10. This is Houston. We copied that transm/ssion. Thank you.
CC: Glad you got the message.
CMP: Boy, this view's got to be a fantastic thing.
CDR: Houstan, 10. [ hope the Aussies have their sets t',_-d in because it's utterly fantastic here.
CC: ROger that, Tom. I'm sure they're all watching.
CMP: We are taking a picture right now of Tsiolkovsky down south there. That's impressive.
CMP: What a place. /
CMP: Joe, that's Tsiolkovsky back there. It's big and i black ] and very distinguishable. Fantastic! Incredible ! x
CC: Roger. We can see it pretty plainly on the set. That's the one right up near the horizon. Is that affirmative?
CDR: It's Just on the horizon; way out there. Right.
CC: Hey, there you go. Now we're picking it up. We esm see the center of it now.
CMP: We can see the whole of the Smyth's Sea now. zoom.
LMP: That's it, Joe. i_lat's full You ought to be able to see that real good.
CC: We can. That's Just real good, Gene. F-1 down there.
CMP: Got this big bright ray crater UP on the northern that's the tube. Boy, a Big one. 'the rays of Sch=_dt Crater go'all,the way across the moon.
LMP: Must be new. : camera
CC: What's your f-stop setting on the now?
CDR: Roger, Joe. I've got it at 22. The Moon's awful bright.
CC: l_oger that, Tom. Thanks.
CDR: I'lI occasi_--lly flick it up, d_n, and then back to help saturate the tube, hut that's what you see, there. _Ry. We're taking All kinds of pictures. I've got the tubes, C_ae-o has the 8eqtmnce camera, and John has the Hasselblad. We're getting all this doc,_nted.
CDR: Is that better, Joe?
CC: Yes. That's a little better there, Tom. What did you do there?
CDR: Stand by. I'11 change n_ ALU switch on it. Xes. little That's
CC: That's a bit _er, Tom. great, The detail is coming out a lot better. as
CDR: Okay. Again, we move away, the basic Moon looks tan to us. The new craters are definitely white from the i_uct and some of %he volcanic --es; hut f-om this Sun angle, it's basically tan OUt there - a white, white tan. And the rays yO u can see are even whiter. And moving over this way, the one crater you can see over there is a brownish _ colow the it. in with cme central peak in I'11 try to you. p_t the zoom on it for
CC: Roger, Tom. We're picking it up ngw_ We can see centra/ the peak in the crater.
UNKNOWN: Okay. Do you have any color there, Joe, at all? CC
UNKNOWN: again, Tom, please. CDR
UNKNOWN: Do you have color in Houston, or Just Black and white? Over. Houston.
CC: We got color here in There's quite a hit of light for the color, although we can make out crater the and we can see the central peak in it. The bla_k and white is coming out real goo_.
CDR: Okay. What I'm looking at now is a oro_m, and the peak in it is light tan - around it is a little a_eker tan. Does that correlate with your colors? Over.
CC: Roger. That looks real good on the monitor here, Tom. That's Just what we're seeing here.
CMP: This is absolutely incredible!
CDR: I thought it we.s & fantastic view leaving the Earth, but fantastic it is going to be even amore one leaving the Moon here _na head/ng back to the _ old F_rth. Roger Tom.
CMP: I got the whole of the Smith's Sea.
CDR: Okay. The way you're seeing it right now is about f:50, pardon me, 55 on the zoom. That's about the way we're seeing it now, ms_vbe a little more.
CDR: Okay. I '11 hand the camera over to Jnhn here and he'11 show you the Sea of Crises. Over.
CC: Roger. And wh/le you're doing that, Tom, we got ccefirmation on your burn. It looks like we'11 have about 1 foot per second at your first MCC at 15 hours. I 1
CDR: Roger. I think we can afford abo_t 1 foot per _ ....... second. That isn't bad.
CC: Can't hardly beat that.
CDR: Yes. The old guidance system isldoing great w_ for us on this mission.
CC: Roger that. That's a real interesting picture that you're showing us now, too.
CDR: ... Tell the people responsible for it that it works Just fantastic ...
CDR: And also for the first time, we're seeing what we call I guess, what Gene Just termed a gigantic turtle-backed crater that's fractured. We'11 put the zoom on that in Just a minute.
LMP: There's a real interesting crater here on mY right, Joe. It 's an enormous thing and it's fractured al-_st symnetrically in a number of pie-shaped pieces. Let's see if we can get it for you in a mimAte. CC Okay.
UNKNOWN: standing by. _age 66O
CDR: In fact, looking straight ahead, Just now coming into view, even thongb we're really starting to climb out from it - In fact, I can finally see the whole Moon right in the hatch window. But looking the road, there's Messier A and B, the Taruntius twins. We have Censorinus there for Jack. And on ahead I can see r_nding Site 1 even from this distance from,the lan_w_ks on that lead in. Over.
CC: Roar. Understand. That's real good to know.
CDR: Boy, you can't believe this rate of climb. It looks like we're Just going out Just vertically. Just beautiful. It would scare the beck out of you if you came at this angle, but maybe it was Just because we cam- in the a_"k and didn't see the thing. Over.
UNKNOWN: that's that crater I was talking about. I don't know how that is, hut I can see a little bit of it in my monitor.
CC: It's coming in real good, Gene. It looks like you're Just about to crowd the top part of the window there, but we 'ye got the whole crater, and yes, we can see those fractures in there.
CDR: It looks like the outer rim is slumped down and you have some maria material near the edges and the whole thing is fractured there in the middle from a couple of Empacts near the center.
CC: Roger. We can m-ks it out.
CDR: Okay. Down in the central part here it's still a tan color and as we move further away, it's starting to get a little more white 'and the mnria areas are turning to a light brown - a whitish brown. Over.
CC: Roger. Understand. t
LMP: _ind of looks like the real Moon.
CC: Roger. The crater that you were show - -
LMP: It's a little rounder, too, isn't it? Go ahead, Joe.
CC: Roger, Gene. I was Just going to say that that crater you were showing us, your fractured crater there, it looked like there was a dark patch on left-hand side. the I wonder if that was Just some- thing that showed up on the tube or if you observed that up there. In the upper left-hand corner there now.
CDR: NO, Joe. That looks like maria material. That's right, that's maria matert_l in that crater, Joe. Over.
CC: Roger. That's real interesting.
CDR: Just wait till about another 30 minutes. Bet you'11 be able to see the whole thing, then. Over.
CMP: That engine did it again, boy. What a friend.
LMP: Does it look a little rounder?
CC: Roger. Looking real round now. If c_e of you guys get half a chance, see if could give us ACCEPT we'11 on the computer, shoot you up a new load.
CDR: That sounds goOd. We are POO and ACCEPT. You got it. you. like
CC: Roger. Thank Man, it looks you guys are climbing out of there. Just like we're in a vertical climb going straight
CDR: Roger. You'd better believe we're climbing out, out from the center: it's a fantastic sight. Also beach beautiful but where's the ocean? Over.
CDR: Okay. I 'ye got the camera back in the central window again.
LMP: Joe, this is incredible. That thing is getting rounder and rounder and rounder and sm,1ler all the time.
CC: Roger, Gene-o. Understand.
LMP: The real show is c_ the inside here; like three that:s
CC: Yes, I'11 bet right.

UNKNOWN: them. [ P,_ 662
CDR: twgy. Now to us, and all three of us have cor- related this, that is a light brown color and sumTounding it you have the hiEhland areas there which is , tan color, and you can see that one impact spray crater _p there that's a white chalk_ color. That looks Just like the material of gypsum, I'/L say. Over.
CC: Roger. Ye're getting the same colors that you are describing, Tom. It's Just great, fantastic! over
CDR: Okay. I've got another crater here I'11 zoom in on. It is to the right of that one w_ia area, and you can see it: it's real bright with rays coming out of it, and I'11 zoom on it.
CC: Okay, 10. This is Houston. You can go back to BLOCK It's on the computer. yours and the fuel cells are looking real good and you might he in- terested to know you are coming in real great all the way across Australia.
CDR: Well, to the people of Australia from the crew of we'd to Apollo 10, like say good morning. We've seen your country many times on the way up to the Moan, an4 we'11 see it m_y times on the way back. even It looks very beautiful from 210 000 miles out. Over.
LMP: That Tc_ is a charmer.
CC: I should say.
CC: Hey, Joe, the Moan is almost small enough nOW where I can see the whole thing from the top, c_e corner to of my forward window the other corner of m_ forward wifidow.
LMP: I can see _he whole Moon from top to bottom ia m_ forward window.

We're picking up now more of the m-ria material and, again, even from this distance still, to keep the it the recording going, is a brown in the maria area; surrounding area is a light tan; In fact, I've got to on. one crater I'm going try to zoom See the maria :i area on the left side of your screen now? Over.
CDR: Okay. Up in there is a little rather small m-tis Let's area of round spray crater. see if we can zoom on that spray crater there.
CC: Roar. Ray. !
LMP: JR, that fractured crater that had the aark mateFial off on the left side is also about one-fourth of the bottom right-hand side. You're not looking at it now, full of that very &ark gray material, also. the bottom quarter of the right-hand side - It's

CDR: Okay. The crater that you have now: the inside of that is chalky color; the rays cc_/ng out are light tan; a darker tan surrounds it, and then you move into the _mria which is a brown color. Over.
CC: Okay. We got all that description. Boy, that little crater with the grays sure stands out nice.
CDR: Right. And you can see down into it, and the sides are Just a chalky white color; at the bottom is a tan like we've seen before, surrounding it is a white tan with the rays lighter. But going over to the maria, you can see the rays in the ma_ia material there, Over. a light tan over a brown.
LMP: Hey, Joe, down at 9 miles has to be exciting, but this unbelievable. has got to be The Moon is now Well i within the boundaries of m_ forward rendezvous window, i
CDR: And now that we're shoving lmpmthat crater, Just one Does thing I wanted to check - our description of the color match with your picture down there? Over.
CC: Right. It's coming up pretty good, Tom. The ,_ia area that you described as brown looks a very dark brown here, almost black, a real dark brOWn, and shows eVidently, that's a little lister to you tbs, it up on the screen.
CDR: Yes. Okay. What about the tans? Is that somewhat Over. about the same? 'CC looking real good._

CDR: Okay. I passed m_ eye test I guess the last time for _ bad. gone too This is an interesting crater right here; looks Iike a lot'of them formed after you have a big crater, then you have slumping in the walls. Here you can see a series of ridges where the walls are slumped
UNKNOWN: Okay. And the whole view nc_ is getting so fantastic the to I'm going to go out to wide angle show you what we see. I can see the whole Moon right out the hatch window.
CC: Oh, t_at's beautiful. there it
CC: Well, is.
CC: See what I mean about size, Joe. It Just about fills the hatch window. u_, roundwise, right smack in Boy, and is this a !4,11 Moon, I'11 tell you. t
UNKNOWN: Just about 1_00 miles now, Gene.
CDR: Roger. 1_00 miles out from the burn, and the view act,,-1ly incredible ia Just like Gene has described. We're all Just laughing up here. Just looking at it. Again, as we've said before, it's a gooclthing we c_m_ in backwards at nighttime where we couldn't see it because if we came in from this angle you'd re-]]y have to shut your eyes. Over.
CC: Roger. Underwtand. Tom, how about going to the other position on ALC and let's see how it looks.
CDR: There's the otherlposition. Joe, we've been shooting this whole thing in f:22.
UNKNOWN: Understand. (_ay. That's good, Tom. Go i a_ back to - let's see, I _ma_ine you're on -
CDR: We're going hack to ... where we were. We Just went inside for a while and then came back. ;_
CC: Roger. That's a lot better. Stay on the outside.
CDR: And, again, this whole area looks - That _,_ia material is brownish and still the color hasn't changed much. It's brown and tan with lights. Over.

CC: 3[c_ca= .r,_ll_ right up the landing site Just like we did when we were down there. You can see Seechi; you can see the Apo]lo Ridge; you can see all those little ridges reflected very well in sunlight. You can't quite see our Sidewinder or Diamondback Rille at this time. however.
CC: OksqT. We understand. Yes. That little crater that ' you're bringing into focus, bringing in the zoom now, with the rays, that's a reA1 interesting little feature in it.
CC: Yes. Would you ask J_)k Schmitt, please ask him what the _,w_ of that crater is, Just for identification? I think we may nave seen that before. Over. And it's CL._-qorinusA.

CC: 0m.
CMP: Well, we've got a lot of pictures to bring back and I'm ames they'11 be very interesting to you, but I'm afraid they're going to ask as many questions as they as_er.
CDR: Okay. If you look in the center of your screen you see two vertical craters. You got them? And you have the sprayed rays that come out down this way. Do you see those? Over. Tom.
CC: Roger. We got it,
CDR: Okay. That's the Messier Craters and from here again you can see the ,_ia material. It is a Brown and the inside of the crater is a light tan and the rays that are sprayed out of them. As you can see, there are Just two rays pronged out of it. Out over the highland area it goes up to Censorinus, and those are tan rays that eome out over the darker material. Now we're getting to see some of the back side, some rilles, some of the rugged side. We'11 go down in this area. CC
CDR: Okay. I guess it can be, if you're upsidedown, it could be front side or hack side.
CC: The shadows are really lengthening and - The shadows ale really lengthening in the tex_nin&torarea and you can definitely see the terminator approaching.
CC: Roger. We can see it on our screen here, Gene-o.
CC: I think what it is, we're approaching it.
CC: GOO_ call, John. that
CDR: One tht_ we were real happy to see around - Ik_r. One thing that we're all happy to see around the Mo_n was some nighttime, because from the time we made TLI until we arrived at the Moon it was i strictly out there in daytime all the time.

You can see where they've flowed It together there. is a lighter brown, heading to a tan. I'11 put the zoom on and hope you can get it. Here it is. We've never seen this before ourselves.
CC: Okay. It's showing up pretty good right now, the way you're describing it. There you go. It looks great.
CMP: Looks like a couple of different flows there.
CDR: Right in the center o_ your screen yo_ should see the discontinuit_ het_een the two _u_ia areas. The one on the right is a _rker brown, nearly a chocolate brown, and the one on the left is a tan. Over.
CC: Roger. That's Just h °w they're coming in down here, Tom.
CDR: Roger. Great. Ney, if you look over in the distance, you can see the night%ime coming on the Moon up near the terminator and you do get some outstanding features there.
CC: Roger. _e've got that. T,_e89l_
CDR: That's the first ti_ we've been able to look at this _istance and see a real d_$cernible difference in the w_ia material. But this is really' kind of a e!A_sic, ...

CDR: Again, I Just want to check the resolution of this camera and zoom in on Censorinus, the landing site where Apollo 11 =ill _d, and I'11 go back and zoom in on that again. Over.
CC: Roeer.
CDR: Okay. There is Ce_. Over here is the crater Maskelyne Moltke, above Maskely_e, B. Ye come down here to Little Bright Crater there. It's right near the dip of the Oklahoma foothills here. It's called _ie, and to the left, right in this area, is the l_nding site where Apollo 11 should land. Over. through
CC: Okay. We got the_ all, Tom. They are coming real good.
UNKNOWN: noW, it's watching it a scope. It's fantastic,

CC: Roger. i i
CDR: All three of us are commenting again that for the scientific interest, about the difference in color And it's really becoming pronounced now. The basic maria area - I'm going to zoom in again - is like a chocolate brown, and from this Sun angle and over to the left is like a tannish brown. And ags n I'11 zoom £n and see how it looks to you. Cheer. Page6?3
CDR: _y. There you are. I hope the colors come out the same to you, the same as we see them here. You ten see the discontinuity there By those two craters. Over.
CC: _oger. It looks great, Tom: Just lt_e you're describing it. Houston. 10.
