CC: Okay. And if you've got something - if you don't have one left for that sample at Hole-in-the-Wall, Jack, we'd like you to get a new set of sample bags.
LMP-EVA: We've got it.
CC: Okay. Got it. Still understand that 32 Echo was your last sample.
LMP-EVA: Thirty-two Echo. Got three here.
CDR-EVA: No. I've got the Rover.
LMP-EVA: Was that me?
CDR-EVA: That was interesting. Bob, about 2 inches below the surface here, you ran into that very - that blue-gray material down there and it just - it's in little clods, and it breaks apart in your hands.
LMP-EVA: Yes, that's right.
CDR-EVA: Did you get some of that in your Rover sample? T_MP-EVA No, but I got it out of that instant rock crater.
CDR-EVA: Let's grab a quick Rover sample and we'11 take off.
LMP-EVA: That's why that was a pretty interesting (laughter) episode.
LMP-EVA: But, really those trenches - those craters are giving us the same information. That there's a light-colored material underneath.
CC: Okay. 17, we're ready for you guys to move on and we'd like to eliminate the Rover sample at Hole-in-the-Wall.
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob. We're getting on now.
CDR-EVA: We got on a minute ago (laughter)
CC: And, do I understand that these Rover samples, Jack, are in your pockets?
LMP-EVA: No. They're in the bag on the Rover.
LMP-EVA: Forty Yankee.
LMP-EVA: That's light-colored soil from a depth of about - it's mixed with a little of the upper surface, but mostly light-colored soil from a depth of about 15 centimeters.
CDR-EVA: Wonder what would I do for an encore? LMP-EYA It looks like the light mantle in here is covered wi_h dark to a depth of about 5 or 10 centimeters.
CDR-EVA: You might want to go MIN, Jack_ on your diverter.
LMP-EVA: Right now, I'm sort of warm.
CDR-EVA: Okay. When we start driving, you might want to go.
LMP-EVA: I'm going to zap myself with a cold. I can do it on here.
CDR-EVA: Did you take any pictures at all while you were there?
LMP-EVA: Oh, yes. I didn't take a pan. Why don't you turn right to a ...?
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob. If you read, we're rolling.
CDR-EVA: Making a right-hand turn for a pan.
LMP-EVA: Left. Let me see where we're going. I guess ... again. You know, a little more and that hole would have been in the way. We left some of our litter.
CDR-EVA: Not a complete pan but it will show the location.
LMP: frame count 80.
CC: Copy that; 80.
LMP-EVA: Okay. Geno, you're heading for a spot that's about 080/5.5, approximately. 95A/15 Tape
CC: Yes, you guys following ... form or not?
LMP-EVA: Do you have an update?
CC: Okay; and - Roger. The Hole-in-the-Wall should be at about 080 or maybe 5.7. And we're not going to stop and get a Rover sample at Hole-in-the- Wall.
CDR-EVA: What about station 3?
CDR-EVA: Okay, that sounds reasonable because it's just nothing but lots of rolling terrain.
CDR-EVA: Light-colored mantle has that bluish tint that you saw in those rocks.
LMP-EVA: I still don't think there's anything. We ought to - we ought to get a core in this light mantle sometime; and probably station 3 is going to be the place. I hope that's still in the agenda.
CC: Roger. It's still in the agenda.
CDR-EVA: Say, Bob_ can you update tt_e mileag_ on statioH _?
CC: Okay, you want mileage to it or do you want the range and bearing at it?
CDR-EVA: Well, range and bearing at it.
CDR-EVA: The Hole-in-the-Wall is fairly nebulous.
CC: Okay, we're going to say about 089 and 6.1 for station 3.
CC: Do you want to hear another range and bearing right now?
CDR-EVA: Do you get the feeling that we're the only ones out here, Jack? Looking around - 073, 10.3, 6.6.
LMP-EVA: Bob, I have a feeling that whatever darkens the - 0oh, there's a beautiful little glass-lined crater, pit bottom crater - whatever darkens the light mantle is not a - a one-time-only mantling of darker material. It's something that happens over a period of time, continually, because craters of all sizes and apparent degradation are dark - darkened and there are lighter craters that are light to varying degrees, there seems to be a continuing - continuum of albedo change.
LMP-EVA: You mean - Yes - no.
CDR-EVA: Now, let's see where we are, I don't want to run into that big crater at the foot of the - -
LMP-EVA: I think you're aZmost to the rim.
CDR-EVA: Yes, ! want to go down here if I can. My tracks are over there to the lefts I haven't crossed them yet. 95A/17 Tape
LMP: frame count is 86.
CC: Copy 86.
LMP-EVA: Boy, that's a sight, isn't it?
CDR-EVA: That's spectacular.
LMP-EVA: I don't know why something that's all _proximately the same hue should -
CDR-EVA: The lack of color has got to contribute to the inability to judge distance.
LMP-EVA: See the lobes coming out - looks like lobes out from the Scarp. The Scarp rather being a line in there on the, on the plain, appear to be lobes. I got a couple of shots of that. Whereas when it gets up on the Massif, it's a fairly continuous curve; although it does appear to be younger, at least - at least there's less relief on it for the first few kilometers of that bend there.
CDR-EVA: We're going to have to go down like the way we came because there's that big crater down at the bottom, I'm afraid.
CC: Yes, I think we agree with that suggestion, too.
LMP-EVA: Bob, the Scarp, so called Scarp, impresses me as less of a scarp than a series of - of lobes which roughly have a north-south trend. And we've beell driving over various hummocks within those lobe_.
CDR-EVA: I think we made a gross mistake in not trying to let them get TV, my heading hasn't changed much at all here. Then we would have a spectacular view. Look at it out in that valley, Jack.
CDR-EVA: Goed gosh. I still don't know where the LM is - Z see it, I think. The shadow or blob - that's the only sharp shadow out there right in the - because you sure can't make out the craters from here, can you? Okay, hold on. Over the hill and down the vale. Man, I tell you, this machine is fantastic.
LMP-EVA: Yes; Roger. (Laughter)
CDR-EVA: Quite a machine.
LMP-EVA: Likes to spin when you turn going down hill.
LMP-EVA: But - I think you've got something right ahead of you. Here -
CDR-EVA: I got it. LM2_-EVA See the instant rock.
CDR-EVA: I got it. You know, the crater doesn't look nearly as bad from here, but it sure is deep when you get up there. We'11 just - I'11 meander a_-ound it over next to this next little lobe then I'11 head down the next one - the first lobe we came up - and then along it.
CDR-EVA: Okay, I'm going through it slow. _P-EVA Beautiful. I figured we'd buckle the LCRU with that one.
CDR-EVA: I bet they can watch this road. My heart rate just dictates the kind of terrain we're going ovor.
LMP-EVA: Okay - Houston, we're navigating and not talk[_g. Sorry. But the light mantle is a fair - is a uni- form surface and i think you've heard just about everything we've had to say so far. cC Roger. Your comm's great and you guys are doing good work.
LMP-EVA: The fragment population is not - the fragment population hasn't changed, nor has the crater pop- ulation, as near as I can tell. I hope the LRV photos will give you more detail than that. Okay, Gene, do you have the target over there, that set of - -
CDR-EVA: Yes, I got to get over to this next knoll and I'm going to be off the Scarp. We're about three- quarters of the way down.
CDR-EVA: Isn't that sharp shadow out ti,ere the LM? See it way out there? Almost under the Sun. It's got to be. It's the only sharp shadow out there. Right under the Sun, straight down there.
CDR-EVA: Okay, I'm going to try to make it down there. Hold on.
CDR-EVA: This is the one we climbed up.
LMP-EVA: Oh, there's Nemo over there to my right.
CDR-EVA: Yes, sir, this is the one we climbed up. Would you believe that?
CDR-EVA: Yes, I would.
LMP-EVA: The problem is if there is any crater on the side - -
CDR-EVA: i don't want to give it the roll, are you - -
LMP-EVA: I think you're all right.
CDR-EVA: We're all right. I don't know, that's go% - -
LMP-EVA: Keep your speed down because if you have to turn, it doesn't like it on a downhill slope.
CDR-EVA: And that's got to be a pitch-angle ... and I don't know what that means. Okay. Right on time - -
LMP-EVA: ... scarp.
CDR-EVA: We're off, we're off, we came down.
CC: Roger. You're down the Scarp.
CDR-EVA: Hey, will you look at the hill we came down same way we went up? L_-EVA i'd rather not.
CDR-EVA: Oh, I don't know, I'm impressed.
CDR-EVA: Okay, now where we got to go. 345 roughly. And we want to go to 087/6.1 - -
LMP-EVA: Okay. you're - I think you're headed right - right for where we want.
CDR-EVA: Yes. L_-EVA It's that bright - see that bright crater? You can just start to see station 3 over there now.
CDR-EVA: Okay, navigation says I've got more than 9 de- grees - I should be increasing range. Bob, we'rE at 079, 11.5, and 5.7.
CC: Okay, beautiful, guys. Really going smooth.
CDR-EVA: Amd I'm headed northwest.
CC: Roger. in fact, we understand it's been going so smooth down here that they haven't even spilled any coffee in the SPAN room yet this mission. 95A/21 Tape
CDR-EVA: Morrison must not be on duty. I'm glad we don't have any sitting on the LCRU.
LMP-EVA: Right over there is station 3, I think.
CDR-EVA: Oh, actually, I guess - they would want it - is there - I can just start to see two craters - -
LMP-EVA: You know what the problem is?
CDR-EVA: - - and they're closer to Lara.
LMP-EVA: I got a full planar view of the high gain and I can't see a thing out there.
LMP-EVA: Full planar view. All I can do is see underneath it.
CDR-EVA: Well I - going to take it broadside. See, I can't see a lot of craters now that I'm out in front. Oh, I guess I can see them both.
LMP-EVA: Here's a nice sharp little hole; look at that. Bob, the texture of the light mantle - surface texture - is really no different on the Scarp, on its flank, or out here to the east of the Scarp. Fragment population, crater population, everything looking about the same. If there is such a thing as a light mantle, it seems to be uniform across the Scarp.
LMP-EVA: Here are your tracks - Hey! We crossed somebody's tracks - we sure did ... we made a loop.
CC: Hope they look like yours.
CC: Okay, copy 081/5.7. Do they look like your tracks?
LMP-EVA: Well, here's another set.
CDR-EVA: Yes, this is where we went to the big craver and ! came southeast in order to get around it, re- member? We saw that hole?
CDR-EVA: Look at that big turn I made, ha ha! That was a quick change of mind when we came over that ridge.
CDR-EVA: Okay, we're still headed northwest, Bob.
LMP-EVA: Here - I -
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob, I guess one thing we don't have a handle on yet is what are the - I think we sampled them - once in a Rover sample, but what are the fragments out here mixed with the light mantle?
LMP-EVA: I think I got one at our last - our last gravimeter stop, a small one, and I guess there's one other Rover sample, but - station 3, we probably ought to make sure we get a representative suite of those fragments.
CC: Roger. Agree to that.
CDR-EVA: Hey, Bob, how long have we been out?
CC: Say there again, Gene? How long have you been ous?
CDR-EVA: How long have we been out?
CC: 3 plus 45.
CDR-EVA: Thank you. 083/5.7.
LMP-EVA: We're at Well, it certainly doesn't look like the geology of Norway, but it certainly is interesting.
CDR-EVA: That must be Lara right there, huh?
CDR-EVA: On the left. You can see the blocks on the other side of her.
LMP-EVA: That's right. I told them about those earlier. That's the only no - I think, Gene, you want to bear a little bit - Hold on - a little bit to the left. See those two craters, two bright craters, that are Just this side of Lara?
CDR-EVA: Now - well - I'm not -
LMP-EVA: You're pointed right - almost right at them, now.
CDR-EVA: Okay, I can barely see them now through that high gain.
CDR-EVA: But I can see - I know where we're going now.
CDR-EVA: Bob, I want to get some 500s the way that scarp flows up on top - well, it looks like it flows up on top of the North Massif. Now if may look like the North Massif may drape material down upon it. Look at that.
CDR-EVA: Not really. The texture is so different, it just doesn't look like as old a surface, but definitely different.
LMP-EVA: Wish they had never said anything about pictures, because I've tended to not take enough - to do better.
CC: Okay, but, Jack, you're doing quite well in the picture department - you're not getting too far behind or ahead. Copy that, Gene? LMm-EVA Nos but i mean I'm not getting the coverage I've - I'm not sure I'm getting the coverage I should.
CC: Okay. We'11 look at the frame count when you get to station 3.
LMP-EVA: Oops, oops! Oh, there's another big crater with a pit in it.
CDR-EVA: What was it, 17-1/2 or 18 clicks we hit coming down the Scarp, Jack?
LMP-EVA: I don't know (laughter).
CDR-EVA: Oh, look at that - wait until you get over and look at that South Massif. Is that -
LMP-EVA: Yes. I don't know where we're going to get a good - Well, let's see. You know, that big block up there might be worth going to.
CDR-EVA: 087 at 5.9. I think that's the best station we've got right here.
CDR-EVA: Let's see what's over on your right. Let's see if we can get at that scarp over there.
LMP-EVA: I've sort of lost track - -
CDR-EVA: We're about there.
CC: i think we expected you guys to be a little bit farther north. We were getting a heading of 080 for the bearing which really kind of says you said you were going a bit farther north than this.
CDR-EVA: Well, there's that first crater, there, Jack.
CC: Roger. 080 is where we think - IA{P-EVA All of a sudden I've lost track.
LMP-EVA: There's nothing wrong with that except that - LMP-EYA I think we ought to go back to that big block.
CDR-EVA: Heading 080 is - heading north is not going to - -
CC: Roger. I Just realized that, Geno.
CC: Yes, I realize that, Gene; my mistake. Somebody's got a wrong thing down here.
LMP-EVA: Gene, I think - -
CC: That's the Hole-in-the-Wall. MY mistake.
LMP-EVA: I think we need to go - go back there a little bit. 087/6.0.
CDR-EVA: Yes, we're at I think that's probably about right. Why don't we stop here?
CC: Okay, 17, that's a great stop. That was _¥ mis- take, I was reading the Hole-in-the-Wall coordinave.
CC: Okay, now, let me brief you on station 3. It's going to be a very brief station to make up for the - -
CDR-EVA: We can see a little bit down into Lara, too.
CC: Okay, it will be a brief station to make up for the time we added on at the - first of all, remem- ber we want to get the nav update. Let me go into a heading of 270 more or less and give us the nay read-out so we can start that here.
CDR-EVA: Can you get where you want from here?
LMP-EVA: No, this is no good. I wanted to get a high spot.
CDR-EVA: Yes, let's - let me park down here, Jack. L_-EVA Why? You should have stayed up there. This is good right here.
CDR-EVA: It's not going to be very level for the gravimetcr.
CC: Gene, remember, we want to - head for the west so we can get the nay update.
CDR-EVA: We'11 park right out here and we can work those blocks right up behind us. Okay, you want a nay update here?
CC: Roger. That's affirm. You need to get your antenna.
CDR-EVA: Why don't you get off, Jack? Oh, I was looking at the wrong - oh, no, I'm not. Okay. I'11 get a nav update. Get off and look around. I'11 give them a nay update, Jack, and we'11 press on.
CDR-EVA: Yes, sir, you're right, Bob. Hey, get your -
CDR-EVA: _nat do you need? Take your scoop or whatever you need.
LMP-EVA: Oh, you're going to move?
CDR-EVA: Yes. I want to give them a nay update real quick.
LMP-EVA: Oh, I'm sorry, I - -
CC: Okay. And, Jack, ... for you. We're going to want you to do some document sampling on your own. I'11 get with you guys on the rest of the station plan shortly. Go ahead, Gene, we're ready.
CDR-EVA: Okay, I ought to get the gnomon, I guess. Okay, let me find a level spot; I'11 come back towards you.
LMP-EVA: I'11 get it. There is none.
CDR-EVA: Well, okay, if you got any -
LMP-EVA: No, go ahead, make your park.
CDR-EVA: Yes, I'm looking for a level spot, but my gosh, there sure aren't very many.
LMP-EVA: That's probably pretty good.
CDR-EVA: It will be in a minute.
CC: It doesn't have to be all that level, Jack - Gene.
LMP-EVA: I got your gnomon.
CDR-EVA: Sun shadow is zero. Pitch - if I can get it over to read it. Pitch is - pitch is zero. Roll is zero. About i left, Bob?
CC: Okay, copy. And how about that - -
CDR-EVA: About i left.
CC: And how about heading?
CDR-EVA: Heading is 282.
CC: Okay, go ahead and park. We'11 giw_ you an u_ate when you get done.
CDR-EVA: W_at else do you need?
CC: That's all we need, Go ahead and park on your 025. We'11 give you an update when you are done.
CDR-EVA: Jack, is one coming right there?
LMP-EVA: Looks like a pretty good location to sample the rim materials of this crater.
CDR-EVA: Bob, I'm at the south, let's say the east-southeast rim of a - oh, 30-meter crater in the light mantle, of course; up on the Scarp and maybe 300 - 200 me- ters from the rim of Lara in a northeast direction.
CDR-EVA: It's body shows up as a bright crater - a bright crater on your map. There's only about a half a centimeter of gray cover over very white material that forms the rim.
CC: Okay. And, Gene, give me a call when you get parked and I'11 give you an update on what we want to do.
CC: Okay, good. We'11 take the Rover read-out £irst.
CC: Okay, we copy that. Understand that 240 now in- stead of a 340. And what was your heading, 045?
CDR-EVA: Heading is 043.
CC: OKay. We copy that.
CDR-EVA: Zf I ever gave you a motor temperature of 3kO, that figure was erroneous. 95A/29 Tape
CDR: for the CSVC for the long cans, excuse me, and
LMP: for solo sampling and then a pan by Jack, i presume, and then the gravimeter and then leave. And, Jack, you might check your film. We aren't quite sure where you are right now, before you get too far from the Rover.
CDR-EVA: Bob, you got any - Bob, you got any preference up in this area where you want that long can?
CC: Negative. That's something that was sort of near the scarp, but you're parked so near the scarp and that something, remember we do it in solo, we only did it with the Rover, so you'd have to stay right there beside the Rover and do it. No ex- pectations of doing it otherwise.
CDR-EVA: Yes. That's what I figured.
LMP-EVA: Gene.
CDR-EVA: Yes, I think you're in good shape. Yes, I don't have any other choice. Matter of fact, if there is a scarp, and if it is a fault, I'm right - right on it because the projection of it would be uphill a little bit.
CDR-EVA: Yes, I'11 be right on the side of it. I'm parkL_d on the side of it if it exists.
CC: Okay, and, Jack, what's your frame count?
CC: Okay, copy that ... Go ahead, Gene.
LMP-EVA: _at do you need, Gene?
CDR-EVA: Oh, yes. Bob s I dug a trench in the side of this crater. I've got down-Sun pictures of it. There is quite a marbling of light and dark soil or fine grain material. It looks as if there's a uniform, about 3-centimeter layer of light material over that marbled light and dark. On the very top surface, there's a half centimeter of light gray, and when I say dark, I mean a medium gray.
CC: Okay, copy that. Sounds like a great sample site.
CDR-EVA: Okay, I'm going to start sampling the soils, and then I'11 get you the fragments.
CC: Okay, I presume that we'11 at least have the sin- gle upper core which we can use to sample of that stuff in the soil, and we -
CDR-EVA: Oh, there's no guarantee that this is a crater rim.
CC: Okay. And, Gene, are you still near the Rover?
CDR-EVA: Yes, I am.
CC: Okay, we'd l_ke to get the SEP blankets opened, Gene_ and dusted if they're dirty, so they can cool some more.
CDR-EVA: Okay, now I can't give you the gravimeter reading while I'm working on the Rover, so I'11 have to time it when I get away from it.
CC: Okay. Roger on that. I think you'11 be pounding on the hammer for a long while while you can take the Rover - gravimeter reading. 95A/31 Tape
LMP-EVA: Okay, bag 520 has a skin sample of the upper light- gray soil. Don't know where I'm going to put these things, I've got to come down and get a bag.
LMP-EVA: Have you punched the gravim - No.
CDR-EVA: No, I can't punch it until I get out of here.
LMP-EVA: These switches are on OFF, STANDBY, right?
CDR-EVA: They should be.
LMP-EVA: Okay, that's where they are and the temperature is 100, about 104 and - -
CDR-EVA: No, they should be OFF. Isn't it OFF?
LMP-EVA: No, it was STANDBY.
CDR-EVA: No, push it OFF.
CC: Okay, it doesn't matter whether it's STANDBY; it won't be heating at that temperature anyway, but put it OFF.
CDR-EVA: Okay. It might have gotten hit when I changed the blanket. Now I have to go to INTERMEDIATE cooling here.
LMP-EVA: Zap me with a cold. Imagine those PLSS got ehareged okay last night ....
CDR-EVA: Okay, back to intermediate. How's Ron doing?
CC: They're both looking - Stand by, I thought he said both fine. Ron's doing great, too. He's sitting here busily - -
CDR-EVA: I mean Captain America.
CC: Yes, I'm just inquiring of Bob. I think he's doing great. He's just passed a little bit north of you a couple of minutes ago and took some pictures of you.
LMP-EVA: Okay. I do my work around the LN_° seat here.
CDR-EVA: That's lock. That must be unlock.
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob, I guess I'm going to go pound away ands Jack, I'm going to hit the gravimeter.
CDR-EVA: And 521 is the sample bag.
CDR-EVA: Well, the first core has gone down pretty good, Bob.
CC: Okay, great.
LMP-EVA: Oh, you're not going - you won't have any problem in here coring.
CDR-EVA: Oh, man, I tell you, I wish I was putting a drJli hole in here. Looks pretty nice.
LMP-EVA: Okay, Bob. The next sample is mostly the medium gray fraction of the marbling. It's mixed, though.
LMP-EVA: Okay, I think I got it. I think I got it, Bob.
CC: And, Jack, when you get done with this trench you might hit one - two of those blocks there, but then we'd - since we're really trying to cut this station down to a minimum, after that you'd probably get - better get to the pan.
CDR-EVA: Bob, what do you think, can I read a gravimeter?
CC: Yes, if it's not flashing - -
CDR-EVA: The light's out.
CC: Yes, it should be Just done.
LMP-EVA: Bob, the - the white marble in the - the white fraction in the marble zone in 523.
CDR-EVA: Bob, I forgot to give you the core numbers, but I will.
CC: Okay. And don't forget to put your little note in the long can there.
CDR-EVA: Oh, I'11 get the note in there. I'11 get it in there. Nobody will ever know.
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob, our 524 is what I think is a blue-gray rock probably breccia. It's got a little dust cover.
CDR-EVA: From just off the rim of this little crater.
CC: Okay, copy that. It's a blue-gray rock, it's not part of the trench, right? You finish with the trench?
CDR-EVA: Yes4 As you see, Bob, it's full. See that?
CC: Roger. We see a long thing in your hand there, Gene.
LMP-EVA: Well, I didn't think that was supposed to happen.
CDR-EVA: And I'd know, Jack? Shoot! Thought I had them on the Rover.
CDR-EVA: Oh, the core cap covers. I'11 get them.
LMP-EVA: No, you got some there in that little ca - in that little pocket - in that little pocket. Yes, and there's so many bags in here, I can't get at them. No, I mean the pocket on the Rover, on the back. Remember?
CDR-EVA: No, they're not. I took them out and put them on you.
CDR-EVA: The rest of them are in this bag. I'11 come and get them.
CDR-EVA: ... This other - but I don't want to get into your seat. We got those bags pi - packed in there like gangbusters. How are you doing there by yourself?
LMP-EVA: Well, it's hard.
CDR-EVA: Your hook came off. If you wait a minute, I'11 hook it on this bag. See. See.
LMP-EVA: I never - I didn't think the sample bag could come off the camera. But they can.
CDR-EVA: Yes. Doggone it.
LMP-EVA: What's your problem?
CDR-EVA: Just as well fix this bag now. Let me get this bag - it's going to come off at the bottom if we don't. It's going to come off again. I don't think the harness is tight enough now.
LMP-EVA: Want to tighten the harness?
CDR-EVA: Yes, I got to, Jack.
CDR-EVA: Let me get your harness - I might just as well do it, so it's right. If it's worth doing at all, it's worth doing right. Now, let me try getting that bag back on. No, don't bend over, I can't get down there.
CDR-EVA: You're plenty short enough.
LMP-EVA: Thanks - thanks a lot. (Laughter)
CDR-EVA: Just think, that hook - or something changes the ge_netry.
CC: Okay, don't worry about it too much, guys; I'm sure the bag will stay on without the hook.
CDR-EVA: Yes, it will; the conclusion I just came to.
LMP-EVA: You through?
CC: Okay, copy that. And, Jack, you just skipping up - scooping up little rocks along the ... here - in your little xenolith mode? Go ahead, Gene.
LMP-EVA: Yes, ... you read my mind. I do want to get one of these light-colored rocks, though.
CDR-EVA: Bob, the - when I broke the cores apart, there's just a lot of dried clods and - and the bottom core's full, the top core about - oh, I got to look - it's dark down there, but about an inch - inch and a half of the core is just - just zero g to 1/6 g'd itself right out.
CC: Okay, we copy that. I guess we still just cover it, and see what we got. Might just again trying compacting it after that's through; after you're done with the lower core.
CDR-EVA: Yes. I'11 do that.
CC: And, Geno, how about - -
CC: Copy; 526.
CDR-EVA: Okay, in a long can - I'11 give it to you; wait a minute. That may have been a piece of gabbro. But again, I can't be completely sure.
CC: Copy that. Go ahead, Gene.
CDR-EVA: It's either that or anorthositic gabbro we saw up on the front. Up on the massif.
CDR-EVA: And my bags aren't staying on my camera worth a darn.
LMP-EVA: Boy, another exercise in dexterity. Okay, LM1_ has gone to INTERMEDIATE.
CDR-EVA: Yes, yes, yes; that's right.
CC: And somewhere here along the line, Jack, I guess maybe when you get those, you ought to stop and take the pan.
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob, the - the long can is sealed and I guess nobody knows what's in it but me.
CC: No one ever will, probably.
CDR-EVA: I may not - I may not even tell. It does not - none of the material in this core, in either the top section or the bottom section, look unlike that - that stuff just beneath the surface that we sampled at that special stop back there. It's a bluish-gray, and it tends to clod and break up in your hands. And that's core 31 - the num- ber is 31.
CDR-EVA: Oh, man. Bob, you've got better than - oh, you've got two-thirds of a core after I packed it do_nl a little bit.
CC: Okay, thank you, Geno. Copy that.
LMP-EVA: Okay, that little set of 4 samples is in 527, barely.
CC: Okay, we hope it was worth the effort. I24P-EVA Oh, it's all worth the effort; it just hurts.
CC: Okay. We're ready now for your pan and don't forget your scoop.
LMP-EVA: I won't - You don't mind a little dirt here an_'_ there, do you, ...?
CC: No. IS_-EVA Oh, dadgummit. Well - -
CC: Hey, Gene, would you help - would you go over and help Twinkletoes, please?
LMP-EVA: I tell you - you fix that camera bracket so the backs stay on and I'11 be a lot better off.
CDR-EVA: Want some help, Jack? I'11 be there.
LMP-EVA: No, I don't need any help.
CC: Jack, you might worry about whether your camera lens is dirty or clean, Jack. I don't know what you could do about it.
LMP-EVA: I'm very worried about that.
CC: I don't know what you could do about it, but you might worry about it.
LMP-EVA: I don't have a thing to do - it's clean.
CDR-EVA: Well, I'11 be a son of a gun.
CDR-EVA: (Chuckle) _ can't get this thing locked on.
LMP-EVA: What the - - C!_-EVA The rake! L_-EVA The rake?
CDR-EVA: Yes. That should lock. I turn that like that - there it comes.
CC: Jack, have you ever started your pan, so we get an EMU check from you?
CC: Okay, copy that. LMP-EUYA And no flags .... Come on. Get back in there.
CDR-EVA: Okay, that's all put away. That goes back on your back. I'11 get it.
CC: Why don't you go over and - over towards Jack, Gene, and then the two of you can pick up the scoop and the bag together and get back towards the Rover after that?
CDR-EVA: Yes, I'm cleaning up this seat here. I'11 do that. I think I can hack it.
CC: And then, at that point, we're ready for you guys ... and, at that point, we're ready for you guys to leave.
CDR-EVA: Whew - Okay. Jack, I've got the rammer I've gct to put on you. I'11 just leave it on your seat right now?
CC: We're watching you, Jack.
CC: I said we're watching you, but don't let that inhibit you.
LMP-EVA: I don't - Bob, I don't let anything inhibit me - and I don't stay mad very long.
CC: That was very good.
LMP-EVA: (Laughter) Well, there's an easy way to do everything. The question is can you hang on to it once you've done it?
CDR-EVA: L=_t me get those, Jack. Don't get down there. Let me get those.
LMP-EVA: Where are you? They don't stay on my cm:_era anymore.
CDR-EVA: Well, we'11 fix it.
LMP-EVA: There's no reason why they shouldn't, according to this. But there are a lot - -
CDR-EVA: ... The ss_aples from that - Oh - I need it - Wait I gotta go up there. Take an after - cross- Sun, from over to the north of the gnomon.
LMP-EVA: You didn't get an after, huh?
LMP-EVA: How come you're cleaning up the Rover?
CDR-EVA: Oh, I'11 get it.
CDR-EVA: If you'11 mount this thing.
LMP-EVA: Just set it there. Just set it there. I'11 take four deep breaths.
CDR-EVA: Bob, what else do you want us to do here?
CC: Nothing. Get on the Rover and leave. Get the heck out.
LMP-EVA: Okay. We're going back to get that after - and we won't forget it.
CDR-EVA: I think you might be able to decipher this sta- tion, Bob.
CC: That's the general idea. And be advised that the switchboard here at MSC has been lit up by calls from the Houston Ballet Foundation requesting your services for next season.
CDR-EVA: I should hope so. Well, we can't use that one. The right-hand gate lock is - how's that - non- functional and the left one is almost nonfunctional.
LMP-EVA: We - once you get it open, you can't get it locked. I'11 dust them if I get a chance, but it's locked on the left side.
CC: Okay, well, we'11 keep those bags under your feet, anyway.
LMP-EVA: Here, I'11 work on it.
CC: I think the samples are safer under there, anyway.
CDR-EVA: We don't have any room .... we can take bag 7 out.
CDR-EVA: That one is locked - in good shape.
CDR-EVA: Let's press on. We got the reading? Let me put the rammer on your back and see if we can't get this on your camera.
CDR-EVA: I don't know; he hasn't said anything. I expect he will.
CC: No, we will not turn the SEP on, Jack. You might cover it with a blanket as well as you can. And how about a temperature reading before you leave, when you do that?
CDR-EVA: It's 100.
CC: Copy that. 100, and understand both switches a_'c OFF and the covers are closed.
CDR-EVA: Well, the covers are closed now. They weren't.
CC: Okay. Roger. That's what I mean.
CDR-EVA: Okay. Turn - turn the other ways left. I think it might just put you there.
LMP-EVA: Well, I don't know why it isn't staying on, but it certainly isn't.
LMP-EVA: ... Move over there.
LMP-EVA: Is that the same one? I may have bent it.
CDR-EVA: I think you did now. Yes.
LMP-EVA: I just bent that, didn't I?
CDR-EVA: Yes, that's not going to stay on. Yes, you bent it (laughter] very well.
LMP-EVA: ... how I did that?
CDR-EVA: I don't know ... You'11 lose these bags.
LMP-EVA: Okay, well, we'11 - -
CDR-EVA: I got bags.
LMP-EVA: We'11 revise our procedures.
LMP-EVA: I guess I bent my camera mounting brac- point, the camera point.
CDR-EVA: Turn around.
LMP-EVA: We may have to - think about a fix there.
CDR-EVA: We might be able to fix that in the cockpit. LMm-EVA Yes.
LMP-EVA: Okay, are we all through, have you got - -
CC: - - worry about that right, when you get back in.
LMP-EVA: Okay. Okay, where are we here?
CDR-EVA: I'11 get on.
LMP-EVA: Okay. Oh, I guess I need to get another film mag, huh?
CC: Okay, how about frame counts on both you guys be- fore you start?
CC: 'ge suggest magaline - magazine Juliett, please.
CDR-EVA: (Laughter) Okay, we'11 get magaline Julieing. The CDR's on 118.
LMP-EVA: Fire fire, two frames. You know, I'd enjoy this if it weren't so much fun.
CDR-EVA: Okay, you going to change your mag.
CDR-EVA: Shoot a 500 while you're doing that. (Laughter)
LMP-EVA: Listen to me - -
CDR-EVA: Look at my thumb.
LMP-EVA: I know.
CC: 17, we'd really like the - -
LMP-EVA: Any time you want to do somethil_, though.
CC: - - we'd like to press on as quickly as possible.
CC: In case you didn't get.
CDR-EVA: Take a portion of the scarp over there you can see.
CC: 17, do you copy? Houston.
CC: We'd like to press on - -
CC: - - as soon as possible, please.
CDR-EVA: I'm going to stand here and look around.
CC: Okay. LMZD-EVA Okay, I'm picking up with mag - or with frame 56 and I'm going to try to get a little bit of where the scarp overlaps the North Massif. I can't see much of it. Ail I could get was three frames of that. Now I'm picking up the South Massif.
CDR-EVA: Okay, how are you coming, Jack?
LMP-EVA: Okay. Oh, I ought to put that in there so you've got room for your camera.
CC: You got a final frame count there, Gene?
LMP-EVA: Okay, I'm all set.
CC: We copy that. And we assume you guys are ready to go by now.
CDR-EVA: And, Bob, they were all with the lens - Yes, sir - they were all with the lens cap off.
CC: Splendid.
CC: Okay. And, Jack, what's the headings say? And we'11 - -
LMP-EVA: Why don't you fix that high gain so you can see?
CC: We'11 - we'11 get the reading we need for the nay update. Do you think you can give us the heading right now?
LMP-EVA: Okay, heading is 41 - I think. I'm at a little bit of an angle. Better let Gene do it for you.
CC: Okay. We 're waiting.
LMP-EVA: I got some - Gee, I've got some parallax. I think it's 41, though.
CDR-EVA: What you looking at?
LMP-EVA: The headings.
CDR-EVA: h3 - 043 is what I gave them earlier.
CC: Yes, we were wondering if it drifted while you were there, because we're going to give you now a - -
CDR-EVA: Bob, let me - -
CC: - - going to give you one to update it if it has drifted at all.
CDR-EVA: Okay, it did drift, 041 is a good number.
CC: Okay. That's fine. No torque necessary, Geno.
CDR-EVA: You liked the drift, huh?
CDR-EVA: Okay, I'11 - Dadgummit.
LMP-EVA: What's wrong? Oh, the hammer?
CDR-EVA: Yes. Every time. Okay, let's go.
CDR-EVA: Ail right, sport. I'm going to head -
LMP-EVA: We didn't really do all the things we wanted to do, but I think we did everything we could.
CC: We did everything we wanted to ... time line ...
LMP-EVA: Okay, let's get ready to roll.
CDR-EVA: Flight line stereo.
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob - Oh -
LMP-EVA: You got the TGE ... on and the low gain is 060.
CDR-EVA: You get the gnomon in?
LMP-EVA: Didn't you get it?
CDR-EVA: You took the after. It's not sitting out there.
LMP-EVA: No, I thought I handed - didn't you stick it i_l?
CDR-EVA: Yes, I stuck it in. I got it. Okay. We can look back (laughter).
CDR-EVA: Bob.
LMP-EVA: I sure thought I handed it to you, Geno.
CDR-EVA: You did, and I put it in.
LMP-EVA: Okay, that's good. Okay, whoo-boy, rest the old hands.
CC: Okay, we've recommendations for MINIMUM for you, Gene - Jack.
LMP-EVA: ... ejecta. It's double.
CDR-EVA: I think I am in MINIMUM.
CC: Jack, ... - Jack.
CDR-EVA: I am already.
LMP-EVA: Yes, I'11 go to MINIMUM. Yes, I will.
CC: And give us a mark rolling, please.
CDR-EVA: We're at 087 - 087 and 5.9 on that range.
CC: And the drive to station 4 will be nominal and we'11 get a Rover sample at about 094/5.1 but it will be the track as indicated on the map and the cuff checklist.
LMP-EVA: Okay. Going to Shorty.
LMP-EVA: On our way.
LMP-EVA: You got your checklist there?
CDR-EVA: Yes, I got it in front of me.
CDR-EVA: And, we're heading - heading is 069, around - Well, up - i got it -
LMP-EVA: Yes, that's pretty close.
CDR-EVA: I know we're next to that band but I know where we're going. My next is 094/5.1 is what I want for that sample.
LMP-EVA: Yeah. Zero what?
CDR-EVA: I think he said 094/5.1.
LMP-EVA: He meant - 052 is what's nominal. What's the sample again, Bob?
CC: 5.1; 094/5.1.
CDR-EVA: Ail right. You got 451.
LMP-EVA: Yes, got it.
CDR-EVA: Just drive by this big rock. Want to look at it. Can't see it. I can't see when that off LCRU shines into my eyes.
LMP-EVA: Looks like one of the gray breccias.
CDR-EVA: Big 3-meter - 3- to 4-meter block out here all by itself on the light mantle - I got some pictures. It was at 088/5.6.
LMP-EVA: And it looked like a gray breccia, I'm not sure though, all I could see was the surface texture, and it had the modular or elongate modular texture that those breccias had up on the South Massif.
CC: Okay, copy that, Jack.
CDR-EVA: Where are you, Shorty? And the battery tempera- tures are 100 and 130.
LMP-EVA: Okay, Bob, as far as any of the things we talked about trying to see at the surface, dynamics or a variation of the light mantle, I think you've heard it all, there isn't much to say about the dynamics right now. I have a feeling that the surfaces are old enough that all those kind of detailed relationships have been obscured .... is just about the same all over here, it varies, but there are no systematics that I've seen.
CC: Okay, copy that. Do we ever see a Rover flag come up when you've got high temperatures there on the battery - have you seen the flag up yet?
CDR-EVA: No, you didn't, No, you did not, you did not.
CC: Okay, that may be telling us something, we hope. Press on.
LMP: is in MINIMUM.
CC: Copy that, thank you.
LMP-EVA: Okay. Ought to cut left up here a little bit.
CDR-EVA: Yes, I think so. Oh.
LMP-EVA: Don't - Keep her going.
LMP-EVA: Good gosh! Was that a - ... aspect ratio of that little thing.
LMP-EVA: Yes, that's what they call a pit crater. Can you swing a little bit and let me get that fragment crater - see that one on your left there?
CDR-EVA: Quite a scene up here. Got your pictures? Pictures?
CDR-EVA: Okay, Bob. We're at 090/5.3 for a quick Rover sample of a very, very fragmental crater. The eJeeta is about 50-percent small angulaa' fragn_lents, much different than we have seen before in te_us of the type of patterns.
CDR-EVA: Okay, and that's in bag 41 Yankee. APOLLO 17 AIR-TO-GROUND VOICE TRANSCRIPTION
CC: Thank you, sir. We would have lost you here shortly in AUTO.
CC: Okay, Ron, the t94P is running, and you can go back to BLOCK.
CMP: It's working.
CC: Ron, Jaime wanted me to mention the fact that she got a couple of A's on some tests today, and she's real tickled and knew you'd be happy to hear that. CT4P Hey, you bets by golly! That's great!
CC: Ron, we are probably going to lose you a little early on this half_ and we may pick you up a little late at the start of the next half, unless you were to try and acquire us mauually, or some- thing like that. If you go via the Flight Plan, which is really what we want, we will be coming in a little bit later than is shown. If you have to talk to us or anything like that, you can acquire manually, and we'11 be right there.
CC: Roger. CMl° Took some pictures of it the other day.
CC: Yes, we were going to steal Jack's thunder and take a - take our own weather report when we had the TV looking at the Earth here a little bit ago.
CC: John told me to tell you to be sure arid - that he's so glad you're there because he knows you worked so hard all these years to be there. He's really tickled. Jan said to send her love.
CMP: Hey, tell them I appreciate it very much.
CC: Roger. They're listening, and they're hanging on every word.
CMP: Okay, Houston; America. i'm with you now.
CC: Roger, Ron. Good show. We need the - we need ACCEPT, so we can give you state vector.
CMP: Okay. Sorry. I had my helmet off.
CC: No problem. Did you unplug your EKG blue lead?
CMP: No. But I didn't have the power on. See? I didn't have the suit power on.
CC: Okay; the signal looks good right now. You're in good shape there.
CC: Ron, we want to delete "CRYO STIR" tonight from the presleep checklist.
CMP: Okay. it's deleted.
CC: And I've got a TEI-49 pad any time you want it.
CC: Okay. You ready to copy?
CC: Okay, Ron. TEI-49, SPS/G&N; 37568; plus 0.56, plus 0.96; 185:12:47.95. NOUN 81: plus 2781.5, minus 1831.5, minus 0532.3. Roi1, 182; pitch, 104; yaw, 330. Rest of the pad, not - NA. Okay.

CMP: Roger. Roll, 182.
CC: Okay; I just missed the readback on that one. Good readback.
CMP: (Laughter) I bet he would be. Hey, that's a great find, by gosh!
CC: Yes, that's first time we find - It's orange. Boy, you could see it in the television; it's bright orange soil. No question about it.
CC: And, as luck would have it, they found it all and got working, and then they got - had to pull out of Shorty due to constraints, walkbaek con- straints in the area. You know consumable versus walkback_
CC: - - And if you got anything in specific you want me to check through at the homefront, be glad to take it down and give them a call later or let you know tomorrow, or even before you go to sleep if you want.
CMP: Okay. Appreciate it, but can't think of anything right now. Just send my love.
CC: Roger. They'11 hear that.
CMP: I'11 check my tone booster here.
CC: Ron, we - that got garbled. Say again, please?
CMP: Hear it?
CC: Yes, we got you. We got you. Just working great.
CMP: Well, we'11 get down here and clean the old suit circuit return valve.
CMP: Yes. I was down there in - cleaning the suit circuit return valve. Could you hear it? I was banging the door.
CC: Yes, that's exactly - We're getting a noise on the loop. It sounds exactly like that Hasselblad. Just exactly like the Hasselblad, and that's what we got all during that eat period. But, you know, it gives a click, and then it sounds like its transporting film, and then another click. Just
CMP: Yes. (Laughter) No, that's - that's not from up here. At least I don't hear anything like that.
CC: Roger. Understand. 96A/1 Tape APOLLO 17 AIR-TO-GROUND VOICE TRANSCRIPTION
CDR-EVA: Get your picture, Jack?
LMP: frame count is 15.
CC: Okay, 090, 5.3.
LMP-EVA: See Shorty out there yet?
CDR-EVA: Well, I -
CDR-EVA: Yes. Ail these others are nowhere near that - look at that. LMLP-EVA No. It was about 15 meters in diameter.
LMP-EVA: Bob, there - there are no obvious lineations, at the scale we can observe, on the light mantle. I think the pan photography and the metric stuff may be what you'11 have to use for any directional trends out in here. Depending on what we decide the origin is.
LMP-EVA: Bob, are you still reading?
CC: Roger° We're still reading you, Jack. CDR-EYA Okay. Are you reading us through the LM or through the low gain?
CC: As far as I can tell, we're reading you through the low gain. It's been working just great to- night_ Genoo
CDR-EVA: Okays that's great - -
LMP-EVA: Tonight?
CDR-EVA: - - because I just scraped bottom on the LCRU. if it's still working, I'm glad to hear that.
LMP-EVA: Going to be right on the rim of that crater.
CC: I - We talked to them about that, but they - -
LMP-EVA: We didn't sample light mantle at that last one.
CC: - - I agree. I talked to them about that. But they are so anxious to get to station 4, i guess they don't want to do it.
LMP-EVA: Wells how goout it, Gene? A little real time -
CDR-EVA: I think we got to, right here.
LMP-EVA: I think we got to.
LMP-EVA: Yes. Okay, that's good enough.
CDR-EVA: You happy? 96A/3 Tape
LMP-EVA: We'11 get the sample - anyway.
CC: Copy that°
CC: Roger. It will be bearing of 100 and range of 4.6.
CDR-EVA: Okay. We're now at 5.0 - 094 and 50.
LMP: frame count is 25.
CDR-EVA: Was that 100, 4.6?
LMP-EVA: Houston, there aren't very many rocks that just sit on the surface. Ail of them seem to - to be slightly buried to moderately buried. That one looked like it might be vesicular. There's a trench - linear set of craters.
CDR-EVA: Hold it, babe. We got to do a little detouring.
LMP-EVA: Okay, what we're looking for is 101 - -
CDR-EVA: Yes. t00, 4.6, I'11 detour. I'11 Just get down this slope. I don't see Shorty though, do you?
LMP-EVA: Wait a minute, is that it? Is that it out there straight ahead?
CDR-EVA: Well, let me get down this slope.
LMP-EVA: Something's dark out there. I think that's it.
CDR-EVA: The - the dark - it might be right over there to the left a little hit?
LMP-EVA: Your left, yes.
CDR-EVA: Yes, right over there. I think I can cut it right across there. That's going to be about the right place.
LMP-EVA: Seems a little far from here - but - maybe not.
LMP-EVA: Oh, I forgot to take pictures again. Trying to shade my eyes. That Scarp certainly is spectacular gcing up there by Hanover, isn't it?
CDR-EVA: It Just rolls over the side, doesn't it?
CDR-EVA: Um-hum.
CDR-EVA: if i change that heading, that LCRU comes right in on me.
LMP-EVA: I don't see any - anything like layering up zhere. Although the upper boundary of those boulder fields on the North Massif, and, as a matter of fact, on the South Massif - -
CDR-EVA: Thav's Shorty straight ahead of uss I think. Yes_ yes, that's got to be it.
LMP-EVA: - - all tend to have a linear boundary. That's the upper portion of the field; the lower portion is strung out downslope. That looks like it might be Shorty. Yes.
CC: Okay, great. Sounds like you're just about there. CDR-EV& Yes, I think we got it in front of us.
LMP-EVA: Bob, looking at the Sculptured Hills, I think Gene's comments the other day about Bare Mountain would apply. There's a small relief - or small amplitude hummockiness to the surface. It's formed by cross-hatch of - Let's say the slope I'm looking at is sort of west-facing slope. So on the other side of Wessex Cleft, it's formed by lineaments going - plunging about 10 degrees to the north and about 10 degrees to the south. And the combination gives some h_mmocks that are quite distinct.
CDR-EVA: Well, you know it's hard to see a blanket here, but that's got to be Shorty right there. L_-EVA Okay - -
CDR-EVA: It's the only large - real large -
LMP-EVA: We want to park. I don't think we'11 see a blanket down - -
LMP-EVA: it - Well, i think - At least we're going to see where the break in slope is for the rim. ,v_f goodness.
CDR-EVA: Oh, look at the boulders sitting on that rim.
LMP-EVA: it's different. CDP_EVA it is darker.
LMP-EVA: Let's go over there.
CC: Let us know when you stop and where you're - -
CDR-EVA: Which rim do you want to park on?
LMP-EVA: Well, I think we ought to park over here near that big boulder.
CDR-EVA: Yes - yes, if I can get up there. I think I can.
LMP-EVA: You can swing in, you know, and Just park parallel to the - Of course, that will put them looking back. What - Can you park any direction?
CDR-EVA: Well, yes, but 045 gives me a good - Let me - I'11 work on it.
CDR-EVA: Let me get up there slowly. I'11 put them on this low saddle here. 045 will give them a good heading.
LMP-EVA: Shorty is a crater, the size of which you know. It's obviously darker rimmed, although the fragment population for most of the blanket does not seem too different than the light mantle. But inside - Whoo_ _hoo_ whoo!
CDR-EVA: Man, are you going to get a picture now.
CC: We can hardty wait.
CDR-EVA: That's about as far as I want to take it!
CC: Okay. And when you stop and get off, give me word and I'11 read you up some revised plans for station 4. 96A/7 Tape
CC: Copy that. And did I understand 4.2 on the range, Gene?
CDR-EVA: Yes sirX
CDR-EVA: I don't know whether you're wrong, or we are, but - -
CC: Sounds like an interesting crater, in any case.
CDR-EVA: - - this is an impressive one.
LMP-EVA: Wait until you see the bottom of it.
LMP-EVA: Okay, Houston] Shorty is clearly a darker rimmed crater. The inner wall is quite blocky over - but except for the western portion of it, which is less blocky than the others. The floor is hummocky, as we thought it was in the photograph. The central peak, if you will, or central mound, is very blocky and jagged. And the impression I have of the other mounds in the bottom is that they may - they look like Scarp masses that may have come off the side.
CC: Okay; copy that and - -
LMP-EVA: That's just what they look like. I'm not sure that - They have a - they have a bench appearance.
