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?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Fred, we're recommending AUTO maneuver. Over.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. AUTO maneuver, and could you give me a GET right now.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. I understand you want GET of the burn. Stand by 1.

Fred Haise (LMP)

That's negative, Vance. What is your clock reading right now?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

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.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. I understand you got it.

Fred Haise (LMP)

You want me to PROCEED one more time on that, Jack?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Oh, it's on; it's a center.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

That's it, she's right on still. Okay. I have, too. That's better than I expected.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Let's do a VERB 74 and get out of here.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

If we can. Go to P00? Okay. I'm going to go to -

Fred Haise (LMP)

737100. Roger. 35500, plus 33000. …

Fred Haise (LMP)

Yaw, pitch, and roll.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Let me see. No, that's yaw, pitch, and—Okay. Everything's … … That's roll, pitch, and yaw.

Fred Haise (LMP)

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)

This is Houston. Please repeat.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Houston, did you give us VERB 49 in yaw, pitch, and roll, or register 1, 2, and 3?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

We gave it as yaw, pitch, and roll.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. We wrote it as roll, pitch, and yaw.

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.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay, Vance. Register 1 will be 33000, register 2 35500, register 3 27100.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Hey, Fred? Stand by on that.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Plus 27100. Okay. Stand by. Right now you can enter …

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Apollo 13, Houston.

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.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's right. That's VERB 49.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

There are 25. 25, ENTER.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Plus 27100, plus 35500, plus 33000.

Fred Haise (LMP)

So far we're … what can we do about it?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Apollo 13, Houston. You better watch that middle gimbal. Over.

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.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Apollo 13, you're heading for gimbal lock. You better stop everything.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Yes, we're back in ATT HOLD now. We're trying to stop it.
