Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger. And, Fred-o, get the TCA breakers in last. Please.
02 10 23 00
Fred Haise (LMP): Roger, Jim. I'm holding open those until you give me a further word anyway. I'm just going to pressurize right now.
02 10 23 08
Jim Lovell (CDR): Jack, are you reading LM gimbal angles?
02 10 23 38
Jack Swigert (CMP): — … power off, come down here and … the audio …
02 10 24 16
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Aquarius. I have some gyro torquing angles and the Odyssey is powered down, attitude-control-wise, so LM's got attitude control now.

02 10 25 13
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Aquarius, Houston.
02 10 25 21
Fred Haise (LMP): Go ahead, Jack.
02 10 25 24
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay. We want you to know that we got some gyro torquing angles for you. And we want you to tell us when you got attitude control in the LM.
02 10 25 38
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. We're still working on the pressurization. I'm getting Jim on the horn here so he can help out, there.
02 10 25 43
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger.
02 10 26 09
Jack Swigert (CMP): Wonder why.
02 10 26 14
Fred Haise (LMP): We got to get this pressurized.
02 10 26 55
Jim Lovell (CDR): Houston, Aquarius.
02 10 26 58
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Stand by 1, Aquarius, Odyssey. We'd like you to go DIRECT RCS and hold your present attitude out the window until the LM gets RCS powered up. Go ahead, Jim.
02 10 27 12
Jim Lovell (CDR): Well, that's my question. We're not—Our 16 20 doesn't match our eight-ball here. We went to FDAIs ON, and we don't have our balls completely powered up. There may be a … and our angles don't look the same and we don't want to go into gimbal lock.
02 10 27 28
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger. How far are you from RCS power up—RCS pressurization?
02 10 27 45
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay, Jack. I'm right up to where it's MASTER ARM, ON; RCS, FIRE; —
02 10 27 49
Multiple speakers: …
02 10 27 50
Fred Haise (LMP): — both LOGIC POWERs out … goes into normal circuit-breaker. … Do you want A in and then I'll fire them?
02 10 27 59
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, 13. You're both talking at once. One at a time, please.
02 10 28 10
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay. Who's first?
02 10 28 11
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Close LOGIC POWER A and B, Fred, and pressurize RCS.
02 10 28 17
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay.
02 10 28 24
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Go ahead, Odyssey.
02 10 28 29
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay. I'm going to try to do the best I can. I've got a one-attitude reference I'm going to fly according to the lunar terminator.
02 10 28 37
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger, Jack. Just maintain attitude.
02 10 29 04
Jack Swigert (CMP): What am I doing? I can't do that, anyway. Let's see, cross feed. Nope. Now, and -
02 10 29 25
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Aquarius, Houston. We'll have to get some AC up so you can get a ball reading. Close your BUS TIE INVERTER circuit breakers, all four of them on panel 11. Close your AC BUS VOLT circuit breaker on panel 11. On panel 16, INVERTER 2, CLOSE. Select inverter 2. Over.
02 10 29 50
Jim Lovell (CDR): That's been completed, Jack.
02 10 29 58
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. The RCS is pressurized now.
02 10 30 39
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay, Jack. Do you want us to proceed right on down the line with the RCS check-out and Activation 37 now?
02 10 30 51
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Stand by, Fred.
02 10 31 03
Fred Haise (LMP): Hell, is he still firing up there?
02 10 31 15
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Fred. Negative on the activation on page 37. Go on to your RCS pressurize and then get your TCA breakers in and go to PGNS attitude hold.
02 10 31 53
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay, Jack. How do you read?
02 10 31 56
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jim. This is Houston. We want you to load the DAP with 30120.
02 10 32 06
Jim Lovell (CDR): Load the DAP with 30120. Complete.
02 10 32 16
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. We need to change that CSM weight.
02 10 32 25
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Aquarius. Your CSM weight is 63400.
02 10 32 51
Jim Lovell (CDR): And Jack's alive to take control the LM to stay away from gimbal lock. Over.
02 10 32 58
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Affirmative. Take control of the LM. PGNS ATTITUDE HOLD.
02 10 33 06
Fred Haise (LMP): We are.
02 10 33 08
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): And, Odyssey, request you coordinate with Aquarius on attitude control.
02 10 33 16
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay.
02 10 33 17
Jim Lovell (CDR): Roger.
02 10 33 19
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. I don't see where you're firing these things …
02 10 33 22
Unidentified crew member: Oh?
02 10 33 27
Jim Lovell (CDR): Are you firing anything?
02 10 33 28
Jack Swigert (CMP): I don't think so.
02 10 33 54
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. I got DIRECT.
02 10 34 04
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): And, Aquarius, check you ATCA (PGNS) breaker on panel 11 in.
02 10 34 13
Jim Lovell (CDR): Say again.
02 10 34 15
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Close, on panel 11, circuit breaker ATCA (PGNS).
02 10 34 21
Jim Lovell (CDR): ATCA (PGNS). Come on. Let's take it easy now.
02 10 34 30
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. We've got ATCA (PGNS) closed.
02 10 34 31
Fred Haise (LMP): Yes.
02 10 34 32
Jim Lovell (CDR): Is that okay?
02 10 34 34
Fred Haise (LMP): Yes.
02 10 34 35
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Now I'm looking.
02 10 34 37
Fred Haise (LMP): … okay …
02 10 34 46
Jack Swigert (CMP): How about plus?
02 10 34 48
Fred Haise (LMP): No. …
02 10 34 49
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. It's already open.
02 10 34 53
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Slow down.
02 10 34 58
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay, Jack. We got it.
02 10 35 16
Jim Lovell (CDR): Yes.
02 10 35 21
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jim. How's the attitude control?
02 10 35 27
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay, Jack. We've got attitude control now in the LM. We're going to try to rotate up through the bellyband.
02 10 35 34
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger.
02 10 35 38
Jim Lovell (CDR): I like that sound like I got back there.
02 10 35 59
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Odyssey, Houston. I've got a procedure for you.
02 10 36 05
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack. I'm …
02 10 36 09
Jim Lovell (CDR): I want to go up this way to get away from that—the radios are powered, huh?
02 10 36 16
Jack Swigert (CMP): Yes.
02 10 36 33
Jim Lovell (CDR): Check your antenna?
02 10 36 37
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack. Odyssey is ready to copy.
02 10 36 40
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jack. What we want you to do is close the reactants valve on fuel cell 2. Power down your inverters. Power down your battery relay bus. Battery ties, off, and pull your entry circuit breakers, entry battery circuit breakers A, B, and C.
02 10 37 15
Jack Swigert (CMP): Check the control, and make sure we don't go to gimbal lock, Fred.
02 10 37 21
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay, Jack; understand. Close REAC valve circuit breakers in fuel cell 2. Power down inverters. Power down BAT relay bus. BAT TIES, OFF. Power entry and both running circuit breakers A, B, and C. All off.
02 10 37 41
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's affirmative, Jack. And close the reactant valve on fuel cell 2, there.
02 10 37 50
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. I'll do that, and Jack'll do that other.
02 10 38 02
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jack; on fuel cell 2, open circuit it.
02 10 38 18
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay. Fuel cell 2 is open circuited. Do you want me to go through the standard shutdown procedure for the REAC valves and -
02 10 38 37
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Odyssey, Houston. All you have to do is close the REACs valve on fuel cell 2.
02 10 38 42
Jack Swigert (CMP): Okay. CB REACs and vent REAC valves all closed.
02 10 39 24
Jack Swigert (CMP): Yes.
02 10 39 55
Jim Lovell (CDR): Yes.
02 10 39 58
Fred Haise (LMP): … an hour and a half.
02 10 40 01
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay.
02 10 40 06
Jim Lovell (CDR): Houston, Aquarius.
02 10 40 09
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Go ahead, Aquarius.
02 10 40 12
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Odyssey is completely powered down, according to the procedure that you read to Jack.
02 10 40 22
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger; we copy. That's where we want to be, Jim.
02 10 40 36
Fred Haise (LMP): And, Jack, have you all got good LM data down there now?
02 10 40 47
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): That's affirmative, Fred. We're getting good LM data.
02 10 40 53
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. In that case, I think I'll pull out some display breakers and just let you all keep an eye on things.
02 10 41 02
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger.
02 10 41 04
Jim Lovell (CDR): He's turning his lights off now, too.
02 10 41 06
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Stand by 1 on that, Fred.
02 10 41 18
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay.
02 10 41 21
Jim Lovell (CDR): What about these lights up here?
Expand selection down Contract selection up
02 10 41 30
Fred Haise (LMP): I've got it.
02 10 41 32
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay.
02 10 41 34
Fred Haise (LMP): Where would you like …?
02 10 41 37
Jim Lovell (CDR): …
02 10 41 47
Fred Haise (LMP): Oh.
02 10 42 41
Jim Lovell (CDR): We don't want to lose COMM with him.
02 10 42 45
Fred Haise (LMP): I'm watching it.
02 10 43 52
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Aquarius, Houston. Stand by on opening your circuit breakers for displays. We're going to let you know what they are, and I have some gyro torquing angles for you.
02 10 44 10
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. What page is that there gyro torquing?
02 10 44 12
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. What page is the, do we write the gyro torquing angles on there, Jack?
02 10 44 17
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Stand by.
02 10 44 18
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. We're there now, Jim. Jim's got it. Go ahead with the gyro torquing angles.
02 10 44 24
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay. We'd like you to proceed with the fine aline and your gyro torquing angles are X plus 003.30, Y plus 024.80, Z minus 015.10. Over.
02 10 44 48
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. I read your gyro torquing angles as plus 003.30, Y is plus 023, I only have four numbers for Y; you'll have to give that one to me again, and Z is minus 015.10. Read Y again, please.
02 10 45 06
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jim. X and Z are correct and Y is plus 024.80.
02 10 45 19
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. We read Y as plus 024.80. We'll proceed on Activation 40 to fine aline the platform.
02 10 45 28
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger. Okay, Aquarius, proceed as on page 40 with IMU fine aline.
02 10 47 41
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Aquarius, Houston. Can you see any stars out the LM window?
02 10 47 53
Fred Haise (LMP): We'll have to wipe them off, Jack. They're coated with water right now.
02 10 47 59
Jim Lovell (CDR): Can I get a towel?
02 10 48 00
Fred Haise (LMP): Yes.
02 10 48 01
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger. As soon as you get a chance to—on your position—to take a look, we'd like to know if you can see stars for alinement purposes.
02 10 48 16
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay. Jim's going to be in trouble in our present attitude out his side. The Sun's there.
02 10 48 25
Jim Lovell (CDR): Wait 1.
02 10 48 29
Fred Haise (LMP): What have you got? How much you got left in battery A? Okay. I wish I knew what the hell they were thinking right now … —
02 10 48 51
Jim Lovell (CDR): They're talking about powering down and doing a P51 here?
02 10 48 57
Fred Haise (LMP): No. They were just thinking about P52 —
02 10 49 00
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Aquarius, Houston. Negative on the P51. We want to stay just like we are, but we'd like to be able to correlate what you're doing with some simulator work we're going to crank up. And so if you can give us information as to what stars you can see out the window, we can make that correlation.
02 10 49 22
Jim Lovell (CDR): Would you say one more time? Give me the top two. The top two.
02 10 49 33
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Jim, what we want you to do is go with your current fine aline and disregard the P51. What we're attempting to do is to crank up some LMS simulations to correlate what we can get out your window with what we can get out the LMS window to see if that will help us any. So when you can see some stars, if you can, you think you can recognize them and recognize constellations, please let us know.
02 10 50 02
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. We'll check. Stand by.
02 10 50 16
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Watch the —
02 10 50 45
Jack Swigert (CMP): I'm just glad …
02 10 51 25
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay, stand by.
02 10 51 40
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Here, unplug this.
02 10 52 13
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Aquarius, Houston. We notice that the O₂ pressure in the ASCENT TANK O₂ is a little high, so we want to use some of it. So close DESCENT O₂ and open ASCENT O₂, tank 2. Over.
02 10 52 45
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay, Jack. Switch now on ASCENT number 2 O₂ tank, DESCENT O₂ is closed.
02 10 52 53
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Roger, Fred.
02 10 53 39
Jim Lovell (CDR): … that?
02 10 54 01
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay, Houston; Aquarius. How do you read?
02 10 54 05
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Reading you 5 square, Jim. Go ahead.
02 10 54 09
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. I'm looking out of Fred's window. I see a lot of particles out there, but a lot of that stuff is still drifting away from us, so a lot of it is flashing in the local vicinity, and I don't recognize any constellations right now, in this particular attitude.
02 10 54 34
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): Okay, Jim. If that status changes, please let us know.
02 10 54 41
Jim Lovell (CDR): Roger. We're continuing to drift. Okay, get your TTCAs to roll.
02 10 54 54
Fred Haise (LMP): TTCA …
02 10 55 08
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM): And, Aquarius; Houston. I've got some circuit breakers you can open to power down displays. In addition, I have a P30 maneuver pad. Over.
02 10 55 20
Jim Lovell (CDR): Roger. Stand by, Houston. Get the CS—get the pad book.
02 10 55 28
Fred Haise (LMP): Get the LM data—get the LM book.
02 10 55 32
Jim Lovell (CDR): And, say—We're getting the pad book now, Jack—and say the boost on powered up?
