Spacelog Apollo 13

No —

I could get a complex.

No. You know—you know how the FIDOs are. They like to load in their own data, no matter what.

But our state vectors take into account the waste water dumps.

Yes, that's -

Apollo 13, Houston. It's your computer again.

Okay. Going to BLOCK.

And as a matter of interest, understand that the downrange comparison between the MCC and the computer is within 35000 feet, and that's on the last sighting, which people think is pretty good.

Okay. Maybe that gives us a little more confidence that if we had to do P23s on the way home, we'd make it.

Apollo 13, Houston.

Go ahead, Houston.

Just info on your PTC, Jim. It's looking very good. Just—excursions in pitch and yaw are very low.

Okay, thank you. And we're going to change another lithium hydroxide canister now.

Okay.

And, Vance. Has FIDO come up with any observations on the trajectory?

Well, a minute ago, he said that to tell you that he was pacified now after your past comments on his trajectory and so forth, and he hadn't seen any waste water dumps or anything and he's pretty happy.

Okay. I just wondered if we're going to need any more midcourse.

He says, seriously, it's looking probably like you won't have any more.

Hey, that's real fine.

FIDOs never guarantee anything, however.

Houston, 13. I have the onboard read-out, if you're ready to copy.

Roger. Go ahead.

Okay. BAT C 37, PYRO BAT A 37, PYRO BAT B 37, RCS A 97 percent, B 97 percent, C 96 percent, D 97 percent.

Apollo 13, Houston.

Go ahead, Vance.

Jim, just an item for you and Fred to be thinking about in case you haven't been briefed on this, something that's now being talked about a little bit. These conservative people would like to have you read the SHe tank pressure when you go into the LM for the LM familiarization at 58 hours. If there's no midcourse-3, and it looks like there's a good chance that there will not be, why, they might want to move the LM familiarization up from 58 to 55 hours. Over.

Okay. If we don't have a midcourse-3, then we'll probably move LM FAM up to 55 hours, in which case we'll go in there and read SHe tank pressure.
