Garbled transmissions.
Armstrong: 03:30 coming up. McCandless: Roger. We're here, if you're there. We copy. Armstrong: Yes. I think we'll make it (laughter). Collins: Yeah. Just wanted to make sure that we're both in Sync on the order (in which the procedures are done). Stow interim stowage assembly, unstow and configure for use 16 millimeter, HC-EX, f:4, 500, infinity, 6 frames per second. It was sure shaking, rattling, and rolling, son of a bitch! [Garble]; they look good. Armstrong: Roger. Aldrin: Yes. It's maintaining about 39 degrees, Mike. (Long Pause) Aldrin: Go ahead. Aldrin: Okay. Collins: All right. Evans: Roger. However, we want the rendezvous radar mode switch in LGC, just as it is on Surface-59. (Pause) Aldrin: Good. [Garble] for telling me. Duke: Eagle, Houston. Go ahead. Over. Aldrin: (Garbled) (Long Pause) Armstrong: Okay, we'll look at Service Module RCS - and SCS... We'll talk about it a little more later. Aldrin: ... Thank you. Aldrin: Or 158, that's about right. Collins: Okay. Collins: Okay, do you have any idea what happened the previous one? Okay? Armstrong: And Houston, Eagle. Okay? PPKs? And it's considerably darker gray, more like ashen gray as you look out 90 degrees to the Sun. (Laughing) Collins: As long as it's still, it will. McCandless: Houston. We'd like to do a little cryo tank balancing. Press on. We copy. Armstrong: Is there one? I'm just letting her hold in Attitude Hold. Not yet. Collins: The Sun bounces off the LM structure. Okay. But so far, we've been - not been able to pick out any decent star patterns while docked with the LM using the telescope. Armstrong: [Garble.] Collins: Roger. Isn't that a huge one? Duke: Copy. Houston. Over. Over. Collins: Houston, Columbia. 96:01. Armstrong: [Garble] Flight Plan. Collins: Mark it... Armstrong: Okay, the GDC is - is aligned. McCandless: Roger. Collins: Alright. Aldrin: That's affirmative. Armstrong: Yeah, I think that's a good representation of our sideways velocity at touchdown there: that hole that the probe... McCandless: Roger, 11. Out. Out. Collins: Roger that. 2 to AC2. Aldrin: And there's the secondary glycol pump. (Long Pause) McCandless: Roger. Armstrong: And Boot Hill, Duke Island, Sidewinder, looking at Maskelyne W, that's the yaw round checkpoint, and just coming into the terminator. Duke: Looks like you need a wine skin up there, Mike. Duke: Roger. [Pause.] [Pause.] Aldrin: Roger. That there is rough - rough terrain. Armstrong: I was the same way. Aldrin: Okay. McCandless: Okay. Out. McCandless: Roger, 11, You are coming in five-by-five here. (Long Pause) Aldrin: No. That's where I want it to go. Evans: Columbia, Houston. Altitude: minus 001.46. Command Module RCS looks fine to us. Collins: Yeah. Duke: Rog. You can start any time you want. We've been doing it all from the ground here, 11. (Pause) Aldrin: (Garbled under Bruce) turn to the right. Use all the green tape, did you? Collins: Two breakers out there; two breakers out there - Batt B, Batt B. Batt A, you say - Neil? McCandless: Roger. Out. A wild throw to the plate allowed another run to score, then a sacrifice fly by Dennis Menke brought in the final run. Over. Out. Aldrin: Good. Duke: Houston. Over. Our biggest drift on the gyro's is 0.03 degrees per hour with - on the X-Gyro. (Pause) We're Go. Over. Armstrong: Is it going? McCandless: Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over. Okay. Armstrong: Is it holding it this time? I'll do that, Buzz. McCandless: 11, Houston. [Pause.] Collins: You got any reading off that Repress O2 to be greater than 8... Armstrong: Okay. Collins: What was I marking on, Charlie? Charlie, how far out can you pick up TV off the Omni? Duke: And we've got almost 3 minutes to go, Neil. Armstrong: 158. Buzz is reading him, though. Collins: That's affirmative. Garriott: Roger, Mike. It looks like we're locked back up again with no delay. [Pause.] Aldrin: And if you'll take me off of suit power. Armstrong: Okay. Armstrong: Okay. One of those two bright spots is bound to be Mike. Nixon: There's the politician in the group, right. Lt. Comdr. John A. Piirto, USN Chaplain: Let us pray. We have spent the past week in communal anxiety and hope as our astronauts sped through the glories and dangers of the heavens. From our inmost beings, we sing humble, yet exuberant praise. As we try to understand and analyze the scope of this achievement for human life, our reason is overwhelmed with abounding gratitude and joy, even as we realize the increasing challenges of the future. May the great effort and commitment seen in this project, Apollo, inspire our lives to move similarly in other areas of need. We have spent the past week in communal anxiety and hope as our astronauts sped through the glories and dangers of the heavens. And, though some were unconvinced, the reality is with us this morning, in the persons of astronauts Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins. We applaud their splendid exploits and we pour out our thanksgiving for their safe return to us, to their families, to all mankind. Our minds are staggered and our spirit exalted with the magnitude and precision of this entire Apollo 11 mission. May we the people by our enthusiasm and devotion and insight move to new landings in brotherhood, human concern, and mutual respect. We applaud their splendid exploits and we pour out our thanksgiving for their safe return to us, to their families, to all mankind. May the great effort and commitment seen in this project, Apollo, inspire our lives to move similarly in other areas of need. Grant us peace, beginning in our own hearts, and a mind attuned with good will toward our neighbor. In the name of our Lord, amen. In the name of our Lord, amen. Lord, God, our Heavenly Father. We have spent the past week in communal anxiety and hope as our astronauts sped through the glories and dangers of the heavens. In the name of our Lord, amen. Collins: There's that same guy that, when you open up the door, why, he's waiting there for you, and he turns the lights on. McCandless: Houston. Over. McCandless: Roger, Buzz. [Long pause.] Collins: There's atmospheric drag up here. Duke: Hello, Apollo 11. Armstrong: Houston, tell Columbia that we read him about strength 2. I'm not sure. Aldrin: Roger. Check. Garriott: Roger, Mike. Shaft angle 357.9 and trunnion angle 44.3. We'd prefer a 10-degree deadband for your sleep period overnight, here. Over. Armstrong: No, those are the same three ones that we have. Collins: Okay. McCandless: 11, this is Houston. Over. Roger. Aldrin: Good. Armstrong: Roger. [Pause.] McCandless: Roger. Over. At 10 minutes, you are Go. Armstrong: Starting my yaw. Aldrin: Yes, sir. Any preference which first? McCandless: Apollo 11, this is Houston through Tananarive. That sums up our questions for now, and we'll crank these back into the engineering pipeline and see what we can come up with. Over. And you're going to have to hand-hold this, I guess. Say again please. You were just on the fringes of coverage from Goldstone. That sounds fine to us. PAO: That Trans-Earth Injection burn was very close to nominal. PAO: That radio check was with the Apollo 11 Commander, Neil Armstrong. Collins: Okay. Well... Duke: Rog. Over. We'll have it for you momentarily. Over. Duke: Columbia, Houston. [Long pause.] Seven minutes. Collins: Are you rolling? Great! Armstrong: Say again, please. COMM: TAN LOS. Collins: No, not right now, Ron. In addition, there's about 5 pounds of miscellaneous weight from the LM in compartment Able-8, and it's taking the place of the LCGs which we moved from A-8 into the suit bag. Okay. Collins: Okay. Well, if they can do that well without a roof, think of what they're going to do with a roof. Armstrong: Yes, I think we're about ready.
