Spacelog Apollo 13

Okay. I have some circuit breakers that you can open up in order to power down displays.

Okay. Stand by 1, Jack. I'm going to get my COMM carrier on.

All right, I'll tell you what. Get all the LM stuff. Give me the LM stuff right now. Jack, give me all the LM stuff.

Why?

All right, Jack. Hey, what do you need out of here?

… status.

Here.

Now is there any way they can control this thing with the LM on? Fred-o?

What's that?

Looks like I'm cross-coupling here. I might as well -

Yes, you are. TTCA will give you the best controlling warning.

Yes, and I want to get out of this roll. What if I go to —

It doesn't matter where the hell you are. … gimbal lock … my flashlight or any flashlight.

… down and power down …

Well, I'm not doing any good here.

Okay, how do you read now, Jack?

OMNI.

Yes, we're on.

Hello, Houston; Aquarius.

Back on? Yes.

Aquarius, Houston. You're watching the middle gimbal there, aren't you? Go ahead, Aquarius.

Okay. Go ahead with the breakers first, Jack.

Okay. You watching your middle gimbal there?

Tell them we are.

Your attitude is just straight pitch down, Jim. Okay, you're moving away.

Okay, Fred, I've got six circuit breakers for you.

Okay. Go ahead.

Okay, they're all on panel 11. Row 1 under AC BUS B, open HELIUM PQGS for PROPELLANT DISPLAY.

It's OPEN.

On row 2, FLIGHT DISPLAYS, open THRUST, open MISSION TIMER, open RANGE/RANGE RATE, ALTITUDE/ ALTITUDE RATE, and open the AC BUS A RANGE RATE, ALTITUDE/ALTITUDE RATE.

They're OPEN.

Okay. They're all OPEN.

Okay. On row 4, PGNS, SIGNAL STRENGTH DISPLAY.

It's OPEN.

It's OPEN?

Okay. That concludes the powerdown of displays. And I have a P30 pad for you.

Okay. Go ahead.

Okay. The purpose is a pericynthion plus 2 hours DPS abort. NOUN 33: 079:25:26.48; plus 1633.0, minus 0014.5, minus 0751.5; apogee not applicable, perigee is plus 0020.5; 1797.7, 8:35, 268, 264, plus 16410, minus 00145, minus 07338. COAS is NA. And I have two gimbal trim angles for you which will be updated. Right now, however, we want you to go with pitch 5.86, roll 6.75. Over.

What was that for?

Pitch and yaw, maybe, huh?

Okay, what was the last two things you gave me, a pitch and roll angle for what?

That's for your DPS trim.

Those were gimbal angles for—pitch and yaw.

Oh, Roger. GDAs.

Yes, that's what I mean. Sorry.

Pericynthion plus 2—Okay, DPS pericynthion plus 2, at 079:25:026.48; plus 1633.0, minus 0014.5, minus 0751.5; HA N slash A, HP plus 0020.5; 1797.7, 8:35, 268, 264, plus 16410, minus 00145, minus 07338 —

Did we lose the water in the —

— N slash A in the COAS, and you gave me GDA angles of pitch 5.86, and you want roll 6.75.

Good readback, Fred.

Well, we're at ATT HOLD for one thing—I mean, we're at MINIMUM IMPULSE.

No, I mean why can't you null them out, somewhere?

Every time I try to—I can't take that doggone roll out. I got to wait until they get around to the bellyband.

Wait a minute. Do you—you fight roll by using the TTCA left right. That's what you need to play with.

Okay. We'll try that. Let me get around though. Let's roll. Let it roll all the way.

Yes, you can't let it roll all the way.

I know. I know. But I mean -

Okay. Then until it's upside down at least, huh?

Yes.

Okay. Well, should I ask him what the return time on that one is? Or are you interested?

Let's get the first things first.

Oh, you don't want to hear. Let me figure some times out here. That's at 79, and what are we at now? About—do we—do we—do we even know any better computer time, do we?

No.

Hey, Jack. Do you still have a mission timer? You don't? Okay.

I'll tell you what. Let's ask—let's ask Houston to give us a mission timer, computer time. They can up link it to us. Okay, hold it.

Go ahead.

Houston, Aquarius.

Go ahead, Aquarius.

You know, we don't have a—I don't think we have a computer clock going, and why don't you up link that stuff to us?

Roger.

And, Fred-o, I got some fast circuit breakers on panel 16 for you.

Okay. Go ahead.

Okay. On row 1 under FLIGHT DISPLAYS, SYSTEMS ENGINEER's CROSSPOINTER, OPEN. Under RCS B —

It's OPEN.

Open the TEMP/PRESS DISPLAY-FLAGS and PQGS/DISPLAYS.

Okay. They're both OPEN.

Okay, Fred. On row 3 under COMM, open DISPLAYS and under ECS, open DISPLAYS.

Okay. COMM DISPLAYS, ECS DISPLAYS, both OPEN.

Okay. And two more. In row 4 under HEATERS, open DISPLAYS and under EPS, open DISPLAYS.

Okay. HEATERS DISPLAY, EPS DISPLAY OPEN. And I've long since had all the lights off, floods, et cetera.

Where are those bags? Where are those bags for weighing water in the PLSS?

Why?

We're going to fill up command module water. We'll …

Hell, do you need a QD … Jim. No way to get ours in there. I don't think.

Hey, Jim.

I wonder if one of our water … jet is. Okay, let's control—What else can we fill up there?

Aquarius, Houston.

We're not—we're not going to —

We're not going to be able to up link your time because of the IU, and we have a frequency problem there. But what I'd like to do is give you a time to set up on your mission timer and give you a mark and then you can put it into the DSKY from there. Over.

Okay. Stand by.

Wait a minute. Why do we need a mission timer right now, anyway? I mean, that bad, they'd tell us.

Well, I'd rather have a timer going so that we—what are we going to put in the DSKY? Should we shut down the mission timer?

Is that what you want to do?

Yes. Hey, OMNI.

Great.

Switch them. Okay. Let's fire on the mission timer.
