It's not quite centered, but it's about a diameter, a little bit less than a diameter, just to one side.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. And, Houston, can we proceed with our powerdown now? Getting the ball back off and AOT lamp, et cetera, AC secured.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
— the ball … get back to—Okay. What we'd like now, I guess, is the next attitude to go to, Vance, and we will work on getting there while we still have the ball.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Jim, in a moment we will have an attitude for you to go to, and recommend that you keep your FDAI up while maneuvering to that attitude. After you get there, then we will have you widen the deadband and eventually go into a PTC about the burn attitude.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Roger. We will have an attitude for you to maneuver to in a moment. And you should leave your FDAI up for that. The attitude is as follows if you are ready to copy. Over.

Okay. This is FDAI attitudes for the maneuver. Yaw 060 degrees, pitch 083 degrees, roll 272 degrees.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Let's not read that in the R1, R2. I don't want VERB 69 twice. I want VERB 49, 58g's so I can fly the needle.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay. I understand, Vance. It's much easier if the ball is up to fly the needles; that gives me a drift of VERB 49, 58g maneuver. We could fly that manually.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Stand by on that, Fred. First, let me read up your VERB 49 attitude, if you are ready to copy.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. VERB 49, yaw plus 27100, pitch plus 35500, roll plus 33000. And do you think it's cheaper to manually make that maneuver or take the 0.2-degree range and go in AUTO maneuver?
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
That's negative, Vance. What is your clock reading right now?

Okay. When I give you a hack, it will be 73:59, and that's about 40 seconds away.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. I think we will make one last check there with the half-unit vectors for 74 hours before we leave this attitude.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. And I'm going to calculate in the 2 seconds in giving you the time hack coming up on 73:59:00 when I give the mark. Okay. Stand by.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Let me see. No, that's yaw, pitch, and—Okay. Everything's … … That's roll, pitch, and yaw.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
The roll's going to be down here, but the yaw will be off the bellyband. … procedure, or don't you have a procedure?
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Roll, pitch, and yaw, but drift's the one. That would be gimbal lock if it wasn't for being off …
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
And, Houston, I see that this maneuver gives us a roll of 27172, a pitch of 08301. Is that what they gave us?
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. We read it to you as yaw, pitch, and roll, and we should have given it to you registers 1, 2, and 3; but we did not. So register 1 is 33000, register 2 is 35500, and register 3 is 27100.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. We sorted it out, and it is correct the way we gave you the first time. So, R1 27100, and in the LM, that's yaw; R2 35500, and that's pitch; R3 33000, and that's roll in the LM. Over.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
I agree with you. Okay. 5018, it's there, and 5018, and that's what it will be. Okay.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Roger. We're watching that middle gimbal. We have as a roll, 27172. Our yaw is—that's register 3—3300. How did we get this?
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
And, Apollo 13. We have a procedure for you describing how to widen the deadband to 5 degrees later on. But stand by for that.
