CC: Roger, Dave. We're happy with the hatch integrity, and let's open the tunnel vent and bleed down to- wards _.0 at - for the nominal setup. And I guess it 's on the decal there.
CDR: Roger. No, the decal says go for 10 minutes in LM tunnel vent.
CC: Roger. And I guess that means after hatch integrity, which means beginning now.
CDR: Roger. Step 7, and it's in work.
CC: 15, Houston. You're suit integrity check looks good as far as we can tell down here.
CMP: Well, we had it for about 5 seconds there, and then the 02 flow went back up, so we'11 hang on here and see if it comes back down.
CMP: Okay, Houston, 15. We got a good pressure integrity check. We're ready to press on.
CC: Roger, we agree. And,
CC: 15, we're still aiming for 179:30 for JETT. And be advised, of course, this means we're going And, to have to retarget P30 to 179:35. other than that, all attitudes will be the same. Although, of course, since you'11 be local vertical, your inertial attitudes for the burn will be slightly different than what you've seen.
CMP: Okay, Understand. And your DELTA-P is off-scale high now.
CC: Roger. And you're 14 minutes past that time.
CC: Go. - Go ahead, 15.
CMP: Roger. Understand. The retargeting on P30 - you want to target that for 179 plus 30 plus 00, and the same DELTA-Vs as before?
CC: Negative, Al. It's going to be 179 plus 35 plus 00 for the SEP burn.
CMP: Sorry about that. I meant 179 plus 35. Three zeros JETT, huh?
CC: Go. 15, go ahead.
CMP: Roger. We're ready to turn the sequence arm on.
CC: Roger. You're GO for turning them on.
CMP: Okay, and LOGIC l, on; LOGIC 2, on.
CC: And, 15, you're go for PYRO ARM.
CC: And, 15, we need DIRECT RCS ON, please.
CMP: Okay. DIRECTs are on. And,
CC: 15, 3 minutes to JE_I_, and we're wait - we're watching for PYRO ARM.
CDR: Okay. We're preceding through the pre-JETT check- list at this time, and we'11 get right to you.
CMP: And, it's away clean, Houston.
CC: Roger, copy. Hope you let her go gently. She was a nice one.
CMP: Oh, she was at that.
CDR: Houston, 15. Question on the separation maneuver. Do you want us to burn the residuals in P41, or Just make a 1-foot-per-second burn?
CC: Roger, Dave, Terry. Burn them in P41, please.
CC: You understand that's burn the residuals, right?
CMP: Just - Just making - Just making sure. 7/10ths
CDR: Houston, P41 says forward. 7/lOths 7/10ths
CDR: Yes, forward, up.
CDR: And forward takes us right back to the LM.
CC: Stand by, Dave. We're looking into that, of course.
CDR: Okay, we got about a minute and 15 seconds or so.
CDR: Average g is ON.
CC: Ah, hold the burn, Dave.
CDR: Okay, we'11 hold the burn.
CC: 15, this is Houston. We'd like to have visual reference relative to your position to the LM. We'd like you behind the LM. And, we'11 give you a burn attitude for 5 minutes from now.
CDR: Roger. Okay, I guess she's about 150 feet dead ahead.
CC: Okay. Copy, Dave. Thanks.
CC: And, Dave. Can you verify, were you behind, in local vertical, or body attitude coordinates?
CDR: Well, give us a little while to figure that one out.
CC: Roger. Are you behind it in the orbit, or are you Just - is it Just sitting there in front of you as you look at it?
CDR: It's sitting in front of us when we sit there and look at it.
UNKNOWN: Bob, we're almost directly radially inward from the LM right now.
CDR: Houston, our attitude is 150 degrees relative to the local horizontal.
CC: Say that again, please, Dave.
CDR: Roger. Our attitude according to VERB 83 down there is 150 degrees, relative to the local horizontal. Which means we're - I guess, fairly close to local horizontal, at least within 30 degrees.
CC: Stand by, _s. Confusion still reigns, I think.
CC: 15, do you have an ORDEAL ball going at the moment?
CDR: Sure do, and it's on the DSKY; you can see it right down there.
CC: Roger, Dave. We would like you to do a VFR burn, which means go - maneuver to a trailing position - and fire i foot per second retrograde. Understand?
CDR: That sounds like a good burn. Roger. We'11 do that.
CDR: Houston, 15. This ought to make for some interest- ing discussion, but I guess what you want us to do is point at him and burn aft to i foot per second; is that correct?
CC: Roger, Dave. That's probably the best way to keep an eye on him.
CDR: Well, we're having a to_h time doing that, because he's right in the Sun right now.
CDR: But, Houston, I think at this attitude of i foot per second aft will give us sufficient clearance. Don 't you?
CC: As long as you're trailing him, Dave. I guess, right now, we can't give you any sound advice down here.
CDR: Okay, well, if we burn i foot per second on the local horizontal, which we are 81most on right now, I think that will put us in an orbit which re - remains clear from it.
CDR: Okay, Houston. As far as trailing goes, right now as we look over the ground, we' re leading him.
CC: Roger. That's our - -
CDR: We're about on a horizontal in front of him.
CC: Roger. We need you behind him, Dave. That - we were gradually coming to that conclusion. That was the only way you could have him in the Sun. We need you behind him, and then a firing of retrograde.
CDR: Yes, that's going to take an awful lot. Because we're a fair ways out now, and we'11 have to maneuver quite a ways to get behind him. It'11 take quite a while and a little bit of gas.
CC: Roger, Dave. Understand that. Stand by.
CC: Okay, Dave, how about 2 foot per second posigrade, as long as you're in front of him. Understand? Two foot per second posigrade. minus
CDR: Okay, so that'11 be a X DELTA-V for 2 feet per second at our present attitude, right?
CC: Roger. That's affirm, Dave.
CDR: Okay. We're all on the same frequency. We'11 do that.
CMP: Okay, Houston. We put in 2 feet per second aft. And that was done Just at local horizontal.
CC: Roger, Copy. Thank you.
CC: And, 15; if you can anticipate, why don't you give me a call when you get yourself partially powered down from this. Then we'11 read you some Flight Plan updates, which are mostly Just the deletion of activities so you can get to bed.
CDR: Okay, Houston. Appreciate that. Thank you, and we'11 call you back.
CC: 15, Houston. You got a moment for this update.
CDR: Just a minute, Bob.
LMP: Okay, Bob. What changes do you have for us.
CC: Okay. These will start out in the Flight Plan, here. And, after LM JE%'2, we'd like you to proceed with the activities that run on the original Flight Plan from 177:30 through 178:01. So that last _ entry that we will be doing will be the line that says "X-RAY, ON" at the very top of that next page. After that - during that, though, we will delete at 177:53, the line that says "MAPPING CAMERA/LASER EXPERIMENT COVERS, OPEN, talkbaek, barber pole, then, OFF, center." It's the second line in the block at the bottom. You got that?
CC: Okay, understand. We'11 delete that particular line, "MAPPING CAMERA/LASER EXPERIMENT, OFF," and we'11 do all the activities up to - through 178 there, the MASS SPEC X-RAY, ON.
CC: Roger. And at the - on that same page, beginning at 178:20 to 178:30, we will scratch that particu- lar - that whole block of items. And going along with that, at 178:39, it says DAC ON, we will also scratch that. Over.
LMP: Roger. Understand. We will scratch the activities from 178:20 to 178:30. And, at 178:39, we'11 scratch "DAC ON". How about the activity there at 178:317 We - guess we'11 do that, huh?
CC: Roger. 178:31, that "MASS SPEC, MULTIPLE, LOW, DISCRIMINATOR, HIGH: ION SOURCE, ON" will be done 30 minutes - three zero minutes after the MASS SPEC EXPERIMENT, ON; ION SOURCE to STANDBY, which is over there at 178:01. Other words, we need a BO-minute delay between the top item on the left- hand column and the top item on the right-hand coll_.
CDR: Okay, we understand.
CC: Okay, we'11 delete the pan camera activities over on 179 hours. There's one at a hundred - 15, if you read - there's one item at 179:16, and another item at 179:21 that pertain to the pan camera. We will delete both of those.
UNKNOWN: Okay, understand. Delete the pan cameras at 179:18, and 179:21.
CC: Roger. Copy. And when you're ready to sleep, I guess you can start with the systems checklist - presleep checklist at 179:31, there.
LMP: Okay, thank you, Bob.
CC: And you noticed we didn't delete the eat period.
CC: Thar_k you.
CC: And - and, Jim; do you guys want a TEI-58 pad?
CC: Okay. We'11 take one.
CC: Okay. If you got - have you got the pad out?
LMP: No, stand by.
CC: Give me a call.
CC: Okay, Jim. Understand you have the pad. SPS/G&N; 36363; plus 0.61, plus 0.93; 192:13:33.30; plus 2799.7, plus 0609.5, minus 0098.0; 181, ll2, 0.15. Rest of the pad NA. Ullage: 4 Jet, 12 seconds. Over.
LMP: Understand. It's TEI-84 SPS/G&N; 36363; plus 0.61, plus 0.93; 192:13:33.30; plus 2799.7, plus 0609.5, minus 0098.0; 181, ll2, 015; 4 Jets for 12 seconds.
CC: Roger, Jim. Except it's TEI-58.
LMP: Roger. It's 58.
MCC: Okay, Jim. And, while we got you, - this is Deke. I'd like to have you and Dave, at least, take a Seconal here before you go to sleep so you can g%vs really power down for the night. You need it. It's up to A1 whether he wants one or not.
LMP: Okay, thank you, Deke.
CC: 15, Houston; we have a correction to that update, if you'd get the Flight Plan back out please.
CC: Roger. That item 178:30, on the m-_s spec, the discriminator value there should be LOW. Copy?
LMP: Roger. Understand, DISCRIMINATOR, LOW.
CC: Thank you, Jim. Tape ll6/11

CMP: Okay, we're Just about getting bedded down here, Bob. I wanted to check and clarify one thing with you before we did.
CC: Please do.
CMP: Okay, the Flight Plan updates that you gave to Jim a little while - earlier included MASS SPEC EXPERIMENT, ON and some switching with the dis- criminator and multiplier. Now, as of yesterday, we had decided not to use the mass spec because of boom deploy problems. Has somebody decided that we now should deploy the boom?
CC: Roger. My understanding is that we didn't want to do it before the plane change because we might have to Jettison it and it's - now that we've got the plane change accomplished, we'11 run it. And, if you have to Jettison before TEI, we'11 do that. Over.
CMP: Okay, I understand. I guess I didn't understand that yesterday; and, we'11 go ahead and deploy it and get the mass - mass spec going now.
CC: Roger, Al. And one more thing; we'd like to make sure tonight that Jim is on the EKG for the -- evening.
CMP: That's affirm. Jim will stay on the biomed tonight.
CC: Roger. And, one more thing, Al, we would like to verify high gain antenna angles are pitch 25, yaw 185.
CMP: Right. That's what they're set on now, Bob.
CC: Okay. We had a long while picking you up. I guess we were a little worried, there.
CMP: No, we just got our signals crossed in here. And, we had some different numbers on them before. So I got them. We're fixed up now.
CC: Okay, and we'11 be expecting you to be in VHF bistatic later on, right.
CMP: I guess - Do you want us to go ahead and do that?
CC: Yes, please, Al.
CC: Okay, one last little check is optics power is on. We'd like it off eventually. I expect you haven't gotten that far yet, Al.
CMP: That's affirmative. We'11 get it.
CC: Okay, and otherwise you call us; we won't call yOU.
CMP: Okay, we'11 call you. Thank you, Bob. Good night.
CMP: Famous last words; go ahead.
CC: Yes. How's that for broken promises. Hey, worried because he doesn't have X-ray and g_mm, rays and all those on yet either. I'd assume you probably have - Just haven't done any of that block, right?
CMP: Yes. Hey, Bob, we're still trying to get cleaned up in here and get suits put away and all that sort of stuff. We'11 get with it as soon as we can, but it's awfully cramped quarters and there's an around. awful lot of stuff to move
CC: Roger. We were afraid you'd get use to the luxury of all that space.
CMP: I kind of liked it here by myself.
CC: This t_me I'11 keep my promise.
CMP: Okay. APOLLO 15 AIR-TO-GROUND VOICE TRANSCRIPTION
CMP: Is it time to get up yet, Bob?
CC: Roger. We've got about 15 updates here for you, if you want to get ready in the SIM bay.
CMP: Thought we'd give you a crew status report and the onboard read-outs before we called it a night. I Just w_nted to check and make sure we got every- thing turned on for you.
CC: Roger. We'11 get the guys looking at that - - spec out, and I think we've cleaned up everything else for you for tonight, and I'11 give you the readings here and then we'11 call it a night.
CC: Roger. We're listening, and I hope everybody else down here will be getting with me so we can give it to you at the end, if anybody wants anything. Go ahead.
CMP: Okay. The PRDs, 25023, 23174, 08029.

CMP: My read-outs: BAT C, 37; BAT A, 37.5; BAT B, 37.5. RCS quads are 63, 58, 60, 58.
CMP: And, we are configured for the bistatic radar test.
CC: Al, that should be bistatie VHF.
CMP: That's correct, Bob. The bistatie VHF radar test.
CMP: And, can you think of anything else that needs to be done?
CC: Okay, three verifies for you, Al. Can you verify the GAMMA RAY's out? The X-RAY is ready? And we need a verify on Jim for his EKG.
CMP: Okay, Houston. He's not hooked up yet but will be shortly. And, we'11 verify the GAMMA RAY, out and ON, and the X-RAY, ON.
CC: And, Al, we're working a state vector up-link for you. Stand by a minute, and we'11 get a decision on that.
CMP: Okay, Rob, I guess we didn't have the GAMMA RAY out, so it's going out now.
CC: Roger. That's a verify, I guess.
CMP: And the X-RAY is ON.
CMP: Okay, the X-RAY is ON. Seems like we had quite a few loose ends tonight.
CC: And, Al, how about a verify on X-RAY COVERS, OPEN?
CMP: Roger. That's verified. It's OPEN.
CC: Thank you. We're still discussing the vector here.
CC: If you can give us P00 and ACCEPT, we'11 have a load in about a minute. Stand by, Just ACCEPT - -
CC: - - sorry.

CC: Negative. ACCEPT only. 118/3 Tape
CMP: Okay. I'11 leave it P20.
CC: Swinging.
CC: Okay, and 15, you can have block back again. Good show. Thanks for the patience this evening, and Karl will wake you when he wakes you and not a moment before. Good night.
CMP: Okay, that sounds like a winner, Bob. Good night.
CC: Roger. This isn't Karl waking you up; but we don't show the MASS SPEC EXPERIMENT to ON, and if the out - outgassing has been completed, we need the I0N SOURCE, ON. Over.
CMP: Okay. We've got it ON, and it's been ON for about 45 minutes now. And we now have MULTIPLIER, LOW, and DISCRIMINATOR, LOW.
CMP: Stand by on that, Bob, stand by.
CMP: Okay, Bob, we got it now.

CMP: Hello, Houston; Apollo 15.
CC: Good morning, Alfredo. This is Houston.
CMP: Good morning, Dr. Joe. How are you?
CC: Couldn't be better, Al. How's it going?
CMP: Just fine, Joe. You all talked out?
CC: No, sir, Just getting ready to start. And, pleased to have a chance to talk to you.
CMP: Very- -
CC: I've got all kinds of things for you, Al, when
CMP: Very good, Joe. Glad to be tAl_ing to you.
CC: Okay, I've got all kinds of things for you, which I can start handing it up to you at your conven- ience, pretty much. We're going to change the Flight Plan around a little bit - primarily, lifting out things because of our getting a somewhat later start than normal, and a couple of other minor modifications. I also have a lot of news to read to you and some other good things you might be interested in. Over.
CMP: Okay, Joe. Let's - Why don't you give me a couple of minutes here to get some pens and the Flight Plan out and - and in about 5 or 10 minutes or so, I'11 have the guys put the headsets on, and we'11 all listen to the news.
CC: Al, out of curiosity, is everybody awake up there?
CC: Good morning, Davy - -
CMP: Yes, Joe, sure are. We're Just in the middle of breakfast.
CDR: Hello, Joe. How are you?
CC: Weli, I'm fine D.R.;-how are you today?
CC: Morning, Joe.
CDR: Oh, we're in great shape. Hey, you sure did a fine Job for us down there, Joe. Jim and I'd like to really thank you. THat was a superfine Job of taking care of everything for us.
CC: I think the superfine Job is the two of you; it was Just most remarkable. Everybody down here is still _: fl0ati_ng so high, theY're havlng a hard time getting down to all that data you gave us. And, you'11 be interested to know that - that we have sitting in front of us, a preliminary report from each EVA of the geology of the area that I would say is more complete than our 90-day preliminary reports which -- were issued on some of our other landings. It's Just most exciting.
CDR: Well, it's because you've got the real professional backroom there. Those - those guys really know how to put - put it together. Especially with the way they were coming up with the new ideas, while we were on the surface. That was really neat.
CC: And, Dave, I do have to ask you one question. Is there a three-unit segment of deep core stems some place in that command module?
CDR: Joe, we wouldn't lose sight of that for all the tea in China. That's number i priority.
CDR: Oh, as a matter of fact, Joe, we made a good thor- ough search of the LM before we let it go. We went from top to bottom to make sure we got everything, and I'm sure we got everything we brought up off the surface, and I'm pretty sure we did - did fairly well cleaning up the surface.
CC: Okay, Dave. Good news; good news. Al, if you're ready, I'11 start hitting you with a few things we're interested in knowing from you right away. And then when we get those, I'11 give you the gen- eral plan for the day. And I think, in some cases, we'11 want to just talk you through some of the changes while you're m_king your front-side pass. There's no need to feed up all the data in detail to you at the beginning here. My first question: we need from you a configuration of panel 230, particularly - in fact, only really the MASS SPEC switches, could you - call out the settings for the MASS SPEC, EXPERIMENT switch, ION SOURCE switch, MULTIPLIER switch, and DISCRIMINATOR switch, please.
CDR: Okay, Joe, I'm right there. Experiment is up and ON. ION SOURCE is centered. The DISCRIMINATOR is LOW and the MULTIPLIER is LOW.
CC: Okay, thank you. That's - that's what we'd guessed. And, Al, I - I guess the first thing we want - we're going to want you to do today is to start to get ready to go plus-X forward, P20 option 5. We're going to want you to retract the mass spec boom and close the X-ray and alpha particle cover.
CMP: Okay, Joe. We'11 do all that. How about putting it on a - on a time basis for me so I can write it in the Flight Plan.
CC: Okay, real fine. You can start that right now at - Just put it in at 192:52, I guess. And also, right after that, list fuel cell purge H2O dump and LiOH canister change.
CMP: Okay, Joe. Understand. You want us to go ahead into plus-X P20 SIM bay attitude, and pull in the mass spec and the gamm_ ray booms, and, I guess, turn off the MASS - turn the MASS SPEC to STANDBY.
CC: Al, let me hit you with that last statement again. We want you to retract the mass spectrometer boom, but not the gamma ray, and close the X-ray and alph a particle covers. Retract mass spec boom and close two covers. Over.
CMP: Okay, understand. You want us to pull in - to retract the mass spec boom and close the X-ray alpha covers, then do the fuel cell purge, the water dump and canister change.
CMP: Okay, Joe. I'11 get that in work.
CC: And one more item. You can start to charge BAT B - at your convenience.
CC: Okay, and looking downstream here, as soon as you get turned around, and these other good things done, we're going to ask you to open the X-ray and alpha particle covers. And for REV 60, the agenda calls for an eat period for you. And gamma ray, X-ray, and alpha particle data being taken during that time. Sounds like you've got your eat period pretty well out of the way.
CMP: Yes, that's right, Joe.
CMP: Okay, Joe. While we're maneuvered here to a Plus-X forward, how about reading some news to us?
CC: Okay. Sure will. Let me - let me begin with just a note on that water dump. It'11 take about 15 minutes to run, and they're interested in your dumping it to close to 10 percent onboard reading. Over.
CMP: Roger, understand. Probably the same as we've been doing before. We dump down to 10 percent, but not below 10 percent.
CC: That's correct. And I've got several things to read to you here. I have the official morning Gold Bugle Zeitung report and - that comes from two rows behind me here. And I've also got a telegram for you, Jim. And I have some history - a little bit of history that's been researched for you by the people at Honeysuckle concerning a small problem with a leak on the Endeavour about 200 years ago. And I'11 start with whatever you'd like to hear first.
CMP: Okay, Joe. Go ahead.
CC: Okay, let me Just start with the morning's news. The weather report in Houston-Galveston area calls for showers and thundershowers through Wednesday. Today's temperatures will be in the lower 70s and upper 80s.
CC: The United States will support Communist China's a_mission to the United Nations this fall, Secre- tary of State William Rogers announced. The U.S. will also fight against expelling the Nationalist Chinese Government on Taiwan. U.S. Steel, the in- dustry pace setter announced a price hike averaging 8 percent on virtually all its products and several other companies followed suit, as an aftermath of a new 3-year labor contract. Trainmen won pay in- creases of nearly a dollar and a half an hour spread over a 42 months in a nationwide contract settle- ment, and called off their crippling strike against 10 railroads. The union yielded on the railroad's demands for some work-rule changes, yet to be worked out. Among those viewing Apollo 15 activities, Monday, in the MOCR, was artist Robert McCall, de- signer of the commemorative stamp for Apollo 15. And Just an edited note here: He was also making sketches of the scenes down here as he saw them and he would turn them out almost as fast as the photog- rapher would take pictures. That was most interest- lng. Turning to the sporting news, Don Wilson pitched a two-hitter and Jesus Alou drove home the winning run and then made a game-saving catch as f_ And, apparently, rain is slowing up the Oilers s preparations for the Giants. The Oilers - Giant exhibition game is scheduled for Monday night in the Astrodome. And I've got the Monday's baseball scoreboard - which I'11 run through quickly for you baseball fans. In the American League: Boston 7, Baltimore 4; New York 7, Cleveland 0; Oakland 2, Kansas City l; Chicago 7, Minnesota 5; Detroit 11, Washington 7; California 3, Milwaukee 1. Read back.
CC: Disregard - -
CMP: Roger, Joe. Copied all these off.
CC: Roger. Okay. In the National League: Philadel- phia 4, Atlanta 0; Cincinnati 4, New York 2; St. Louis 3, San Diego 1; and Los Angeles 5, San Fran- cisco 4. And Lee Trevino added another thousand bills to his bank roll, Monday, by taking first place with the number - with a 7 under par, 65, in the Columbus Invitational Pro-Am. Jack Nicklaus and Arnie Palmer teamed last weekend to close in on Trevino in professional golf's money-winning race, though. Nicklaus and Palmer won $20 thousand each when they won the National Team Championship at - I guess, Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Trevino leads for the year with a total of nearly $200 thousand.
CC: And, I'11 go over now to - Jim, a special telegram for you which reads, essentially: Mother, Dad, your and brother Charles are proud of you. We were thinking of our trip together on top of Mount Whitney and we are with you in spirit on the Moon. Love, Mother, Dad, and your crew. And I might add, that there - An occasional piece of mail for all of you that is starting - is starting to come in to the Manned Spacecraft Center, here. In fact, I think a truck pulled up there yesterday to deliver some of the first.
CC: I'm going to go on, if you're still listening, to read some history that was sent to us by the Honey- suckle people. And the subject is "A Leak on the Endeavour at 62 hundred GET." Following the above incident and the wonder from the Apollo 15 crew whether Captain Cook's Endeavour had ever sprung a leak, the staff at Honeysuckle Creek Tracking Station has searched the records and come up with the following incident, which may be of interest. Information has been extracted from an old news- paper article and an entry in Captain Cook's log book. "It was 11 p.m. on June 11, 1770, a clear moonlit night, when his Majesty's ship, Endeavour, under the command of Captain James Cook, sailed serenely under fully furled sail within the waters of the Great Barrier Reef off Australia's northeast coast. Then disaster struck. The ship had got up- on the edge of a reef of coral rocks which lay to the northwest of [sic] having come in places [sic] run the ship 3 or 4 fathoms and in others about as m_ny feet." (And I'm quoting James Cook's diary here.) "But about a hundred feet from her star- board side, she, laying with her head to the north- east, were 7, 8, and 10 fathoms." With a grind and a roar, the Endeavour rose in the bow, and came down hard. Empty water. Casks broke their lashings The captain, clad only in drawers (which I guess is a constant wear garment) rushed on deck. He snmmoned all hands to the pumps, and ordered all unnecessary stores to be thrown overboard. Such items as iron, and stone ballast from deep in the hole, casks, hoops, stays, oil jars, decayed store_, and then six cannons, which fired 4-point shot. (Probably one cannon to fire long, one cannon to fire short and two to fire for effect.) These, in fact, are the cannons discovered in 1969, off the coast of northeastern Australia by a team from the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Science. And, after restoration, one each was presented by the Australian - to - by the Australian government to the U.S., British, and to New Zealand. The remain- ing three cannons are in Australia. The original Endeavour was finally freed from the reef by means of oakum and wool, wrapped in a sail, being sunk under the ship and plugged into the hole in hope that it would be sucked into the leak and would close the leak. The experiment was entirely suc- cessful and, I quote again, from Cook's diary, "In about a quarter of an hour to our great surprise, the ship was pumped dry and upon letting the pumps stand she was found to make very little water." Subsequently, the Endeavour arrived at the Austra- lian mainland (the landing place is now called Cooktown, by the way), and after two months the damage had been repaired and the ship returned to England. And that's the end of your history lesson for today. Over.
CDR: That's quite an analogy, isn't it?
CC: Quite an analogy, Dave. Certainly is. Back to reality. Al, I have a CSM consumables update for you if you're interested in that. And let's see - the other item on my desk - Well, I'11 get to it a little later. I'11 be standing by for your go ahead on the CSM consl_mable update.
CMP: Okay, stand by, Joe ....
CMP: Houston, 15. I'm ready to copy the consumables, Joe.
CC: Okay, Alfredo. GET 191 plus 25; RCS total, 47; quad A: 50, 47, 46, 47; H2 tank l: 56, 5B, 42; 02 tank l: 64, 67, 54.
CMP: Roger, understand, Joe. At 191:25, RCS total, 47; quad A: 50, 47, 46, 47; H2 is 56, 5B, 42; 02 is 64, 67, 54.
CC: Copy, Al. And I'11 be right back.
CC: Endeavour, this is Houston again.
CC: Okay, Al. Let me lay some more words on you con- cerning your Flight Plan, when you're - you're ready to talk about that.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Go ahead.
CC: Okay. You'11 be in the configuration plus-X for- ward, and will be taking g_mma ray, X-ray, and alpha particle data, data during REV 60. We want you to do at 19B plus 45, a P52 option 3. And we're going to add a map and pan camera pass sometime during REV 60. And I'11 be coming at you with the necessary data for that. Also -
CMP: Roger, Joe; understand.
CC: Okay, Al. Now I guess a - a word about biomed configuration, today. In order to get some very interesting base-line data, medical data on you, Al - and, Jim, for your EVA coming up later - we're requesting that the two of you give us that biomed data today. I think, Dave, you were scheduled for it, but I guess we'd prefer Jim on the line with A1 to get base-line data for later. Now, Al, let - let me run through in Just some blocks here the next revs as we see them, and the approximate activ- ities. And then I'11 come up with specific data concerning those revs later on, perhaps actually during the revs. On REV 61, we're going to have the UV - -
CMP: ... that.
CC: Okay. On REV 61 will be UV photography of the lunar mare. We're coming up on, I guess, an hour of light flash experiments, and it's pretty much dealer's choice between Dave and Jim, who - which- ever one of you would like to do that. REV 62 will be a crew exercise period, science photos, and science visuals. And we'11 be taking the mapping camera and laser altimeter data during REV 62. And it will end with terminator photos. On REV 63, more m_pping camera, laser altimeter, and a burst of the pan camera. UV photos and terminator photos again. REV 64 will be eat period, boom photos, LiOH canister change; and that brings us to about 204 hours, and it'11 be time to go to bed again. Over.
CMP: Okay, Joe. Understand in the Flight Plan that the object is going to be to get us back to the printed Flight Plan as much as possible.
CC: That's exactly right, Al. And you'11 be coming on to it kind of as the day progresses. We're just going to pick up a few quick items that we've missed over the past 2 hours and mainly Just lift - lift out other sections, as I understand it. But you'11 be back on the Flight Plan shortly.
CMP: Okay, Joe. Fine. Thank you.
CDR: And, Joe, let me request that Jim be - -
CDR: I'd like to say that I'd like to have Jim without his sensors on today. That B, 4 days in a row is pretty tough with those things on. I think prob- ably, if you get him tonight, you could probably get your data, don't you think?
CC: Stand - stand by, Dave, and I'11 - let me double check.
CDR: Say, as a matter of fact, Joe, why don't you give Jim and A1 both a break today on the sensors, and I'11 stick mine on, because I've had them off since we got back yesterday. And then if you want us _ have some particular data-gathering periods, why don't we take a look at that starting tonight, huh?
CC: Okay, Dave. That sounds good.
CDR: Okay. And concerning the light flash things - Jim and I both saw light flashes while we were on the surface, as a matter of fact.
CC: Okay, copy that, Dave. That's remarkable.
CC: Good ship Endeavour, this is Houston.
CC: Roger. On our down-link data, we see indications of high gain antenna yaw fluctuations. Wonder if you could glance over at your onboard indication and see if you see it there as well. And, also we're standing by for crew status reports, when you're ready to give it.
CDR: No, we - we see no oscillations up here, Joe.
CC: Al, this is Houston. With a TEI-62 pad, when you're ready for that. We also have a question. How did the mass spec boom retraction go? And we've got a switch setting for your MASS SPEC when you're ready.
CMP: Okay. Jim will be ready to copy a TEI pad here in a minute. And MASS SPEC BOOM retracted without a hitch this time, Joe. Sorry I didn't get the time on it, but it was very close to the nominal time, and apparently it didn't hang up this time.
CC: Okay, fine, Al. Thank you. We'd like the - I guess the m_ss spec placed on STANDBY, please. And that's the EXPERIMENT switch.
CMP: Okay, MASS SPEC on STANDBY. Yes, that's verified on standby, Joe.
LMP: And, Joe, I'm ready to copy that TEI pad.
CC: Okay, Jim, good morning. We need ACCEPT, and we're going to up link a new state vector to you. And 0.61, plus 0.92; 200:10:34.64; plus 2928.4, plus 0190.3, minus 0043.5; 180, 106, 006. The rest is NA. No comment. Ullage: four Jets, 12 seconds. Over.
LMP: Okay, Joe. The read-back on TEl 62. SPS/G&N; 36310; plus 0.61, plus 0.92; 200:10:34.64; plus 2928.4, plus 0190.3, minus 0043.5; 180, 106, 006; four Jets, 12 seconds.
CC: Okay, Jim. Read-back correct. And how are you doing this morning?
LMP: Fine, Joe. Had a good night's sleep.
CMP: Okay, Joe, I've got a clear status report for you.
CMP: Okay. Longest 9 hours sleep in one period there, Joe, to begin with. And the PRD's are 25024, 08031, and 23175.
CC: Okay, Al, copy that. And assume there was no medi cat ion.
CC: Okay, thank you, babe.
CC: Endeavour, you can go back to BLOCK. You have a new state vector. And we're standing by to watch your water dump.
CDR: Okay, Joe, crank out the water dump. Want to watch one for a change, huh?
CC: Roger, lay it on us.
CC: Hello, Endeavour. This is Houston with a map cam- era photo pad when you are ready.
LMP: Stand by one, please, Joe.
CMP: Houston, 15. Go ahead with your mapping and pan camera photo patchup.
CC: Okay, Al. And I - I forgot to tell you when you are dumping water, you can also go ahead with the URINE DUMP if you need to do that. I Just forgot to mention that. The map camera photo pads for REV - -
CMP: That's okay, we're doing it.
CC: Yes. For REV 60. T-start, 19_:35:05, T-stop, 195:34:50. Image motion setting at T-start: barber pole plus 4; at 195 plus 20 plus 00: barber pole. And a couple of notes on this. Be sure to retract the gamma ray boom prior to the start of the camera pass. And be sure to go to 5 degrees dead band in P20 - I'm sorry, Al; that's 0.5 of a degree dead band in P20 prior to camera pass. And you want to extend the camera and start the laser altimeter per the system's Checklist, page S/1-38. Over.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Understand. Mapping camera photo pad: T-start, 194:35:05; T-stop, 195:34:50. Now for the tmage motion, you want a T-start barber pole plus _, and at 195:20:00 you want that in- creased to barber pole. And notes: Retract the gamm, ray boom before ta_{ng the pictures; go to 125/11 Tape half degrees dead band; and extend the mapping camera; and start the laser altimeter as per system's checklist, S 1-38.
CC: Sounds good, Al. Thank you.
CC: Endeavour, this is Houston with the new 02 heater configuration for you.
CC: Roger, Al. We want 02 HEATER in tank 3 to AUTO and tanks 1 and 2, OFF. Over.
CMP: Understand, Joe. You want 02 HEATER in tank 3, AUTO, and the other two, OFF.
CC: That's right, Al. And we want you to proceed with the Flight Plan.
CMP: Roger, Joe. We'11 get that in work here now.
CC: Al, this is Houston. You can terminate the DUMP now. And turn the alpha particle experiment OFF, please.
CC: Endeavour, Houston. Requesting AUTO in the HIGH GAIN. And, troops, you may have to delay the P52 we've called out to you and coming up shortly un- t94 til about plus 20, to make sure most of the water is out of the way. Over.
CMP: Roger, Joe. I'11 Just go take a look here and see - If I can pick up the star okay, I'11 go ahead and do the P52.
CC: Okay, Al. And you got the call about the alpha particle counter, I hope.
CMP: Right. Roger. We got it turned off.
CC: Al, we - we've noted the termination of your fuel cell 3 purge. At your convenience, open the X-ray and the alpha particle experiment covers, please, and turn the alpha particle back on. Over.
CMP: Okay, Joe. We'11 be about another 2 or 3 minutes finishing up all the dumps, and then we'11 do that.
CC: Good ship Endeavour, this is Houston. We'11 see you on the other side.
CMP: Okay, Joe. 126/1 Tape
CC: Hello, Endeavour. This is Houston.
CC: Roger, Al. I wanted to tell you that except for a couple of minor changes, you'11 shortly be back on the nominal Flight Plan. I do have a pan camera photo pad to be copied into your Flight Plan at 195 plus 00 when you're ready.
CC: All righty. At 195 plus 00, PAN CAMERA MODE, STANDBY; POWER, on; STEREO, EXPOSURE, normal. At 195:04:13, PAN CAMERA MODE, OPERATE. At 195:14:30, PAN CAMERA MODE, STANDBY. PAN CAMERA MODE, MONO, at 195:18:23; PAN CAM SELF TEST to SELF TEST. The talkback should be barber pole for 30 seconds and then gray. And after the talkback is gray, PAN CAMERA SELF TEST to HEATER. At about 195 plus 21, PAN CAMERA POWER, OFF, on a cue from MBFN.. At - at 195 plus 34 plus 50, LASER ALTIMETER, OFF; RE- TRACT MAP CAMERA; and CLOSE MAP CAMERA COVER, per S/1-39 steps 7 and 8, page in your checklist. Over.
CMP: Okay, Houston; understand. And I'11 go through the whole thing here for you. At 195, PAN CAMERA MODE, STANDBY, POWER, on, STEREO, and EXPOSURE, normal. At 195:04:13, MODE to OPERATE. At 195:14:30, MODE, STANDBY, and STEREO to MONO. At 195:18:23, SELF TEST to SELF TEST, and barber pole for 30 seconds and then SELF TEST to HEATERS. At 195:21:00, PAN CAMERA POWER to OFF on your cue. At 195:34:50, LASER ALTIMETER, OFF; RETRACT the MAPPING CAMERA, and CLOSE the COVERS per steps in checklist S/1-39.
CC: Okay, Al. Right on. And could you verify for us, please, that the ALPHA particle spectrometer has been turned ON and that the X-RAY and ALPHA particle COVERS are OPEN. Over.
CMP: Okay, Joe. The COVERS are OPEN, X-RAY is ON, and ALPHA particle coming ON now.
CC: Okay, thank you. And, Endeavour; we need NARROW BEAM on the HIGH GAIN, please.
CMP: Joe, looking ahead a little bit in the Flight Plan, I see we've got gegenschein coming up on this rev. And I guess my question is do you want me to change the film in the - in the camera now? In other words, have we missed any picturetaking with the - the - the Nikon that maybe we want to pick up with that MAG before I offload that MAG?
CC: Al, I'11 have an answer for you in just a minute on that. In the meantime, could you reverify that the COVERS on the X-RAY and ALPHA particle are OPEN, and we're getting some problems on that, and I guess the best thing to do would be - to just go to your checklist, page 1-33, and do that COVER, OPEN, couple of steps - which is listed "N_mber l, COVER, OPEN" - -
CMP: Okay, now, Joe. You're right. I don't know - I don't know where we got - got our wires crossed, but the COVERS were CLOSED and they're now OPEN.
CC: Okay, no problem. Good.
CC: Al, on your question on the gegenschein experiment, we want you to go ahead and change the MAG to Victor Just per the Flight Plan.
CC: Hello, Al. This is Houston.
CMP: Hello, Houston. This is Al. 126/3 Tape
CC: Roger, babe. Requesting you - give us a GAINSTEP on the GAMMA EXPERIMENT up three clicks, please. And, we're also wondering what MAG you've taken of the Nikon to put MAG Victor on. There's some confusion in our minds. I guess we thought Victor was already on there. Over.
CMP: Negative. MAG U was on there before, Joe, and I had Just taken it off.
CC: Okay, thank you, Al. That helps us. And once again, the GAINSTEP on the GAMMA, up three clicks. And we 're showing that now.
CMP: You've already got it.
CC: Endeavour, this is Houston. Requesting AUTO on the HIGH GAIN, please.
CMP: AUTO it is.
CC: Endeavour -
CC: MARK 15 seconds to PAN CAMERA, OFF - ON, PAN CAMERA, ON. Sorry.
CMP: Roger. Roger. Got you, Joe.
CC: PAN CAMERA, ON.
CC: PAN CAMERA to STANDBY in 30 seconds.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Thank you.
CC: PAN CAMERA to STANDBY.
CMP: PAN to MONO.
CC: We copy, and thank you, Al. And, I've got a UV photo pad, a big one-liner, when you're ready to copy that.
CC: Roger. This is for your pad located at 196 plus 50. And it is T-start, 196:56:19. _
CMP: Understand, Joe. UV photo pad, T-start, 196:56:19.
CC: Right on, Al. Thank you.
CC: Endeavour, 30 seconds to SELF TEST.
CC: Al, I gave a bad call. I was 30 seconds premature on that. Stand by.
CMP: Okay. Looks like you'11 get two SELF TESTS, Joe.
CC: Al, that's no problem. We'11 take both of them, and I'11 cue you for the next.
UNKNOWN: Okay. I'11 give you a whole series of them here if you want them.
CC: Negative, Al.
CC: Thirty seconds to SELF TEST.
CC: MARK. SELF TEST.
CMP: Houston, 15. PAN CAMERA is in HEATER MODE now.
CC: Okay, Al, and on the MAP CAMERA, IMAGE MOTION to barber pole, please.
CC: Roger, Al. I've got what they tell me is the last change to your Flight Plan to put you back on the nominal.
CMP: Okay, Joe; stand by Just 1.
CC: Okay, no hurry.
CMP: Okay, Houston; 15. Go ahead with the Flight Plan update.
CC: Okay, Al. The first change is at 195 plus 36 in your Flight Plan. And it is "GAMMA RAY BOOM, DE- t-lW_ack PLOY, barber pole for about 2 minutes and 40 seconds, then gray, and then to OFF, center position." Over.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Understand. At 195:36:00, "GAMMA RAY beam-BOOM, DEPLOY, talkback barber pole about 2 minutes 40 seconds, then gray, and switch OFF." next
CC: Okay, Al. That's good, and the two items are deletes over at 196 plus 31. And that is, delete - -
CMP: Okay, go ahead. CAMERA/LASER
CC: - - delete "MAP EXPERIMENT COVERS ," et cetera, and delete "MAP CAM TRACK," et cetera, ALTIMETER, and at 196 plus 37, delete "LASER ON." Over.
CMP: Roger; understand. At 196:30, delete the two lines dealing with the mapping camera, and at 196:37, delete the laser altimeter function.
CC: Okay, Al, and you're now back on your Flight Plan except for the additional couple of pan camera bursts and a map camera pass that you already have copied down. And while I've got you on the line here, I'd like for you to think back yesterday, and I've got a question to ask concerning your suit and reconstruct exact/y what had happened. And I guess what we need is a - a comment about your third suit integrity check. And, that one was the one you did Just after the first LM JETT had been scrubbed and you went around the back side and did a suit integrity check, and we're wondering if you can re- call any of the details of that check for us. Over.
CDR: Okay, understand you're concerned about the second suit integrity check we did. The third one was okay. The suits were - held integrity fine, and we had an 02 flow of about .6 to .7. So, I guess you're t-lking about the second one, huh?
MCC: Daye, we're talking about the one you did before the lest one, whatever nigher you call that.
CMP: Yes, Dick, that - that was the one we recycled quickly on board up here, and it was because we had one of the gloves that wasn't fastened on exactly right.
CC: Roger, Al. MAP CAMERA and LASER, OFF, please.
CMP: Okay, MAP CAMERA and LASER, OFF. And, did you understand the comment on the suit integrity check?
CC: Fine, Al. Th,_W you. That helps us a lot.
CC: PAN CAMERA POWER, OFF, when convenient, please.
CMP: Okay, it's OFF.
CC: Endeavour, this is Houston. You're coming up on LOS in about 2 minutes, and everything's looking Just as slick as glass.
CMP: Okay, Joe; and_we're Just sitting here in attitude all set to dim the lights and do the gegenschein.
CC: Okay, Al; sounds like fun. Enjoy the back side, and see you in a few minutes. And if there's any- thing you need from us down here, just give a call.
CMP: Certainly, Joe.
CC: Knew you would. Tape
CMP: Hello, Houston. Endeavour here.
CC: Roger, Al. Copy. And I've got a TEI-64 pad when you're ready.
CMP: Okay, just a minute.
CMP: Okay, go ahead with the pad.
CC: Roger, Alfredo. SPS/G&N for a TEI-64; 36310; plus 0.61, plus 0.92; 204:08:11.62; plus 3011.0, minus 0019.6, plus 0048.8; 180, 102, 002. All the rest NA. Ullage, four Jet, 12 second. Over.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Understand TEI-64, SPS/G&N; 36310; plus 0.61, plus 0.92; 204:08:11.62; plus BOll. O, minus 0019.6, plus 0048.8; 180, 102, 002. The rest is NA. Four Jet, 12 seconds.
CMP: Hello, Houston. Endeavour, go ahead.
CC: Al, could you give us the MASS SPEC DISCRIMINATOR switch to LOW, please.
CMP: MASS SPEC DISCRIMINATOR to LOW.
CC: Okay, thank you. And, did you get a volunteer for eye flash experiment?
CMP: Yes, I think we have a volunteer for you.
LMP: Your volunteer's checking in here, Joe.
CC: Okay, Jim. A quick word on it. Everything per the Flight Plan. We are going to ask you to go ahead and give us your description real-time on the down link and your choice if you want to push to talk or go on to VOX. And then, when you go around the corner, you can put it on the DSE like you did before, in HIGH BIT RATE. And Al, we got a one-time-special good deal for you in the mean- time. We're coming up - You're going to be flying over the LM impact point shortly, where your trusty Falcon augered into the Moon, and we're going to ask for a short pan camera burst there. We'11 come up with that photo pad to you in a minute. In the meantime, at your convenience, could you go to FREE, load NOUN 79 to .5 dead band, and - then go back, please.
CMP: Okay, we'11 do that, Joe. Stand by. That ought to be good.
CC: And, Endeavour, you will be interested to know that the impact of Falcon was picked up on three beautiful seismometers on the Moon - a really remarkable record.
CC: Which ones were they, Joe?
CC: Apparently, they were the ones from Apollo 12, Apollo 14, and Apollo 15. We haven't had reports from other seismometers yet.
CC: That's very interesting.
CMP: Tell us, Joe, did they get the LM impact close to where they wanted it?
CC: Roger. It went in to within about a degree. And in fact, as you know, it doesn't - the exact point isn't all that important. It - it went in just about where we wanted it, though. _
CC: And Al, as soon as you have NOUN 79 and you give us ACCEPT, we'11 give you a state vector. Over.
CC: Roger. We see it. Thank you.
LMP: Okay, Joe, I'm ready to start the - experiment.
CC: Okay, Jim, We're copying.
CC: Endeavour, AUTO on HIGH GAIN, please.
CC: Roger. AUTO.
CC: Al, this is Houston. You can go back into BLOCK. We still need a half a degree dead band. And you can delete two lines in your FLIGHT PLAN, one at 197:04 and one at 197:09, both the "Pan camera" lines there, delete them. Over.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Understand. Delete the "Pan camera" lines at 197:04 and 197:09.
CC: Roger. You can BLOCK the ccmputer but we need a half a degree dead band.
CMP: Roger, Joe. I've loaded it a couple of times. Let me check it again.
CMP: Okay, Joe. I've got half a degree and - guess I'm having a hard time counting today.
CC: Thank you, Al. I'm not doing any better.
LMP: Joe, are you still there?
LMP: As long as I'm lying here waiting for a flash, I might cnmment that Dave and I both observed the flashes while we were - on the surface. While we were in the bunks down there, we observed the flashes With the - oh, about the same frequency as we observed in orbit. One night there was about a 5-, 10-minute period there where I was awake, and I ran a little experiment by Just turning over in the bunk. It seemed like the frequency was much less when I was lying on my stomach as opposed to lying on my back. It's Just a note of interest.
CC: Okay, Jim. That's a most interesting comment. And as you know, with about 10 minutes to go during the experiment today, we'11 ask for you to turn over and be oriented with your face away from - the Moon, and we might very well get the same sort of information this time. Al, I've got a photo pad for you to copy when you're ready. And then, Jim, you can just go ahead and switch to VOX mode, if you don't want to push your PUSH TO TALK while you transmit to us. Your choice on that, though.
LMP: Okay, no problem.
CMP: Okay, Joe. Go with the pad.
CC: Roger. Pan camera pad at 197 plus 16 plus 22. And you're to go to OPERATE per step 5 in your Checklist, page S 1-38. And at 197 plus 18 plus 22, the PAN CAMERA to STANDBY. And at 197 plus 40, you can delete the P52 scheduled then. Over.
CMP: Roger, Joe. Understand. You want the PAN CAMERA to - to OPERATE at 197:16:22 as per the Systems Checklist 1-38 and to STANDBY at 197:18:22. And delete the P52 at 197:44 - or - 40.
CC: Right on, Al. Thank you. And, Jim, we're stand- lng by to copy your comments.
CC: And, Jim, this is Houston. We'd like for you to transmit your description as well as the mark call, please.
LMP: MARK. And it was at the left eye; 8 o'clock, and it was a streak, and it seemed to be moving from 8 o'clock to maybe the i o'clock position, about --- - it covered about 20 degrees of arc out to a position - periphery at 8 o'clock into midway on our sphere of reference. An intensity of 3. And -
LMP: MARK. I Just had a flash at i o'clock, moving to the center - the center of - moving toward the 12 o'clock position. It was intensity 3. And that last one was the right eye.
LMP: MARK. A flash at the 12 o'clock, intensity 4.
LMP: That was right down the Plus-X axis, Joe.
UNKNOWN: MARK. A flash at 8 o'clock, left eye, periphery, intensity 2.
CC: Al, PAN CAMERA STEREO switch to STEREO, please.
CMP: Okay, STEREO it is.
CMP: And PAN CAMERA to STANDBY.
