Okay. You're still looking real fat on power. We show you having over 30 amps on the water. If you do get into a bind and don't come up—that's amp-hours—don't come up with Recovery, you can always power down and you can always put the pyro batteries on the line if you need them after you're down.

Okay, Jack. This is Houston. We've got POWER, and you can cycle it for 10 minutes if you so desire, but we don't think you need to do it. Over.

Okay, I was just going to tell you about that handover we just had, but I was a little late on the—on the ball. Since we're fat on power and we'd kind of like to have S-band with you after blackout—we'd—We'd like you to delete the step on your entry checklist page 2-5, after “Begin blackout,” it says “POWER PMP to OFF.” We'd like you to leave it on if you think of it. Over.

Okay. At 10 minutes to 400 K, you're looking good; we're real happy with the trajectory, and a minute ago, we just lost contact with your friend Aquarius.
