Spacelog Apollo 13

Yes. It kind of surprised us.

I guess that's what happens when you cut a lot out of a checklist.

Okay, Houston; Aquarius, radio check.

Loud and clear, Fred.

Okay. I had a change in the background noises, wondered if you were still there.

Apollo 13, Houston.

Houston, Aquarius. Go ahead, Houston

Okay. Go ahead.

According to calculations—calculations, you should see the Moon. It'll be a full Moon. You should see most of the disk and it should be somewhere on your vertical LPD line, probably at about 14 on the LPD scale. Over. Roughly centered on 14.

Okay, Houston. I concur. I'm looking at 14 on the LPD and the angle is just about centered. It's south of Crisium, but its—The line is just slightly to the north of center.

Okay, Jim. That sounds very good. We see that you have a slight yaw angle, so it should be north of center.

Aquarius, Houston. Over.

Go ahead, Houston.

Jim, you are GO for the burn. GO for the burn.

Aquarius, 2 minutes and 40 seconds to go on the mark.

MARK.

Or that was—Stand by.

What was that mark?

Stand by. That was incorrect. Three minutes—Counting down to 3 minutes, and I'll give you a mark, and I'll take into consideration 2 seconds.

MARK.

One minute.

Roger.
