1 00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:12,980 You're coming through loud and clear. Okay, I guess we got three bikes. One breed, one 2 00:00:12,980 --> 00:00:18,260 bikes the way it is. You want it, Charles? No. Now, how are you? Bye, how are you? 3 00:00:18,260 --> 00:00:39,450 Fine. Good. You're fine. Good. Yeah, we tried to go through this, you know, your 4 00:00:39,450 --> 00:00:45,409 debrief last night. The printed one, you know, this all the stuff that you guys did on 5 00:00:45,409 --> 00:00:51,409 tape, your tech debrief, to get those sort of, we try and not repeat, you know, only 6 00:00:51,409 --> 00:00:58,710 amplify stuff. And so, we've tried to come up, you know, much time to do that, but I hope 7 00:00:58,710 --> 00:01:05,969 we got most of that stuff. Okay. If you, if you think we're hitting some area that you 8 00:01:05,969 --> 00:01:12,090 think, you know, is a conflict with that, well, yeah, tell us a little. All righty. 9 00:01:12,090 --> 00:01:16,650 Change your around. And some of the things, now there were some things that you guys said 10 00:01:16,650 --> 00:01:24,489 yesterday, you know, when I was in the project debrief, that probably bear on some of 11 00:01:24,489 --> 00:02:04,280 these two. All righty. Yeah. Good morning, Bill. All right. Hey, Greg. 12 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,879 Oh, you know what's my, I don't know. 13 00:02:46,599 --> 00:03:07,669 Yeah, I don't know what's here. Yeah, I don't read it. 14 00:03:07,669 --> 00:03:19,060 We don't have it. All the pictures are there. It's a lot better than what I had in this place. 15 00:03:53,240 --> 00:04:04,199 Yeah, that's going to be hard to do. I heard what you did. Okay. She was on your, 16 00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:10,840 what kind of format did you have in mind today? Okay. Questions and answers. Yeah. Questions 17 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:16,360 and answers. I guess we ought to, for the tape, identify this Dr. Barry and for the 18 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:22,040 medical debriefing and I'll try and ask most of the questions that people have. Some here 19 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,480 we'll try and hand them in that way. If they're not, will you identify yourself? And I think 20 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,959 they can identify you guys voices pretty well already on the tape. So there shouldn't be any problem 21 00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:41,000 with the tape thing. They're not loud enough. It's a little down. Yeah. Mr. Bird. Where is he? 22 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:49,879 Can, can you get him a turn of my upside? Well, we can yell for a while here if it'll help 23 00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:56,680 and then we can get him a turn of my upside. You just speak up loud. One, two, three, four, five, 24 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:04,680 five, four, three, two, one. Is that where it's coming from there? 25 00:05:05,959 --> 00:05:15,420 God, Craig will get somebody in there. I think I'll come try again. One, two, three, four, five, 26 00:05:15,420 --> 00:05:19,660 five, four, three, two, one. Test out. It's going to be better. It's going down. 27 00:05:19,660 --> 00:05:26,620 Huh? I think we're not throwing on this one. Where are you ringing the lock and clear it back there? 28 00:05:26,620 --> 00:05:33,339 Well, it's not coming in there though. They're not getting it in there. Okay. We can hear them 29 00:05:33,339 --> 00:05:43,500 great, but they're not here as far as we're on. Yes, inside. The speaker, not the mic. 30 00:05:49,660 --> 00:05:53,500 Here's to the max, the max, see if you can hear them vice versa. Oh, really? 31 00:05:56,699 --> 00:06:02,379 Hey, that's a lot better. Okay. It's labeled wrong. They're just screwed up and there's too much. 32 00:06:03,579 --> 00:06:10,779 Yeah. Yeah, we can hear you out here now. It's great. Okay. Good show. 33 00:06:11,180 --> 00:06:20,779 Okay. I'm going to start it a little bit out of order here, but one of the things that sort of 34 00:06:20,779 --> 00:06:27,100 forbades it, all those medical requirements. In the section 27, you had some comments about 35 00:06:27,100 --> 00:06:32,939 the medical requirements. And I thought we ought to just give one question with you. 36 00:06:33,660 --> 00:06:37,180 In explaining the medical requirements, we have one opportunity to do that with 37 00:06:38,139 --> 00:06:42,540 with deep, of course, at the time that we're trying to get the document, the medical requirements 38 00:06:42,540 --> 00:06:47,819 document published. The second, the only option for you, we really get to go over that with you, 39 00:06:47,819 --> 00:06:58,060 was at the 30-day debriefing prior to the fright. Did you guys feel that you had an understanding 40 00:06:58,060 --> 00:07:04,060 of what the requirements were? Because when I read this, it sounds like you did not. Is that true? 41 00:07:04,620 --> 00:07:13,959 I think I read the forms, Chuck, and understood in general what you were after, at least the 42 00:07:14,839 --> 00:07:23,319 number of sessions we had. I think it's a question of degree. Yeah. Okay. Well, one of the things 43 00:07:23,319 --> 00:07:29,639 we tried is a very valid thing, like I could ask comments about, you know, you should substantiate 44 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,120 the requirements. No question about that. They should be clear. They should be clear to you, 45 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,439 in the sense that you ought to know that what you are doing is worthwhile and the stuff is used, 46 00:07:40,439 --> 00:07:44,199 and it isn't wasted somewhere down the line. Somebody isn't just doing it for fun. 47 00:07:44,439 --> 00:07:50,600 Yeah. And we try, that's something we try to iron out pretty hard in our own house. 48 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,720 And one of the things I'd like to do, is if we run, if you guys end up at the 49 00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:01,079 some time before the end of the quarantine period here, and at some time we got to have that 50 00:08:01,079 --> 00:08:06,519 data together by then, and then prior to the time that we're going to get in the out, if you've 51 00:08:06,519 --> 00:08:13,160 got an hour or some time we might be able to go over with you and show you, here's what we saw 52 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,360 with you, and with the lab data and the whole bit, and say, because you know, it's very hard to get 53 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,199 back together again after you get out of here to do that sort of thing. Everybody says they'd like 54 00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:27,560 to know what happened to them. We could do that to you and here, and tell you that, and here are 55 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,720 the samples that were used to do that, so you have some idea of understanding about how to end. 56 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,039 Would that be worthwhile to you? Yeah, the comma was made not from the point of view, a specific 57 00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:41,639 complaint about our flight, but just, you think, continuing understanding between the two 58 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:48,120 directorates. We agree. I had time, because it's a kind of thing, well, just like without 59 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,840 assigning the experiments, unless the crew understands the reasons and agrees with it, you know, 60 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:57,320 the thing is you're going to be a successful experiment. Amen. So it wasn't the comma, it wasn't made 61 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:04,840 from a point of criticizing anything specifically about our protocol, at all, just to reiterate what 62 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:10,360 we did. Everybody ought to know, but doesn't know what we're thinking about. Yeah, good. And I think, Chuck, 63 00:09:10,759 --> 00:09:21,080 also probably the last few weeks before flight is not the time to try to brief the crew on 64 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,240 the medical requirements. At that time, there are thoughts you're quite a bit on other things, 65 00:09:26,039 --> 00:09:32,200 and perhaps it needs to come earlier than that. Ernie, that's a good, nothing good point. 66 00:09:33,399 --> 00:09:38,519 I think each one of us is concerned with ourselves medically, or the medical, 67 00:09:38,519 --> 00:09:43,320 but that's the physiology of flight, et cetera, et cetera. But the last few weeks, 68 00:09:44,279 --> 00:09:51,639 you just can't get yourself cranked up to really think about those things, except for the things 69 00:09:51,639 --> 00:09:54,600 that are going to happen to you, so you can be mentally prepared for it. Right. 70 00:09:56,519 --> 00:10:01,159 I think I may have precipitated that comment. At least when we got that, Ernie, started that, 71 00:10:01,159 --> 00:10:06,440 they're about to, and I guess it really wasn't a complaint, Chuck, as much as just a statement, 72 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,919 that it's a drag, you know, going through collecting urine for 24 hours, and so forth, 73 00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:16,679 and that. And, you know, I just wanted to toss it in that you sure hope that it's worth 74 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:22,519 while, and I think it would be interesting to sit down and see how you, what you're really doing with 75 00:10:22,519 --> 00:10:29,080 all that. Good. I think that's really needed because we're trying to do that right now with this, 76 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,159 kind of, and cruised to tell you, what we really know about what happens to man, what we know from 77 00:10:33,159 --> 00:10:36,840 the Russian side of the thing is to what's happened aren't even there longer when 78 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:41,240 I put the thing together and say, here's what, here's what we don't know, and why we need to know it. 79 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:46,679 Well, I think, I think we understood, or I understood your, your need to 80 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:55,000 work out the total body water, but the actual mechanics of how that fit into a 24 hour urine collection 81 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:59,879 six times and, you know, blood drawing, and how that all fit in the picture, the theoretical picture 82 00:10:59,879 --> 00:11:04,919 you write, painting for us. I never understood that very good. Okay. I very now, you know, 83 00:11:04,919 --> 00:11:11,399 I think everybody stands on these things. Why don't, why don't we make a specific recommendation 84 00:11:11,399 --> 00:11:17,080 to this point? You know, all the flakers have a training plan, which is set up about the time 85 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,559 of the flakers and pizzeria, and it includes all kinds of things, and the simulators, and 86 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,240 scientific regions, and everything else, and why is, why wouldn't the best way to do it, but actually, 87 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:32,360 the schedule of the time, four medical briefings early, in the training program. 88 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:39,399 Because, I think if you all, uh, kind of rusty, if you all feel the experiments worthwhile, 89 00:11:39,399 --> 00:11:44,519 doing, you want to get your protocol settled earlier now in the game, so you have all the equipment 90 00:11:44,519 --> 00:11:50,519 or whatever you need. We're ready. Yeah. That's right. We'll be, uh, satisfactory test. 91 00:11:50,519 --> 00:11:59,000 So I would suggest that maybe sometime, uh, we schedule in the, in the crew training program early in the game. 92 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,720 And I should take, because one of those things, you've got to check off, like, systems, briefings, 93 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,120 everything else. And I should think that briefing should consist of, uh, 94 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:15,320 a bit of the theoretical thing you're trying to do. Right. Followed by the mechanics, 95 00:12:15,799 --> 00:12:20,600 and the protocol. What that means to you. That's right. The mechanics of how you go about doing it, 96 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,799 and the number of punctures, and where you're going to do it, and how many of your incentives 97 00:12:23,799 --> 00:12:28,759 will serve you. Great. Just so the guys understand. Great. Okay. We'll do. Great. That's great. 98 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:37,399 I'd like to go back and pick up one then on, on the, uh, exercise, uh, area. You, you mentioned 99 00:12:37,399 --> 00:12:43,159 this in the debrief, and you mentioned it again in the, uh, uh, yesterday. But can you give me some 100 00:12:43,159 --> 00:12:48,120 idea? Now you said you missed, uh, as, I remember the, the debriefing statements here, you 101 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:53,639 commented, you missed one day on the way out, and one day on the way back. And can you, can you, 102 00:12:53,639 --> 00:13:00,679 can you say what you did in time, uh, what, what the exercise consisted of, what you did roughly 103 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,080 in time. I know you won't know the minute or second or anything, but it's roughly as you can. 104 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:12,360 And then, uh, what, if you have any idea that you try and judge what you did as far as did you 105 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:19,159 try and get a heart rate increase, or did you try and judge your, your exercise level in any way. 106 00:13:19,159 --> 00:13:24,039 And this is particularly important for us in trying to separate out the effects that are different 107 00:13:24,039 --> 00:13:29,799 between, uh, the two of you are on the surface versus two who is in, uh, in the spacecraft all the 108 00:13:29,799 --> 00:13:35,000 time. So we want to keep that and want to get that straight if we can. Could you just sort of 109 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,000 brief the exercises because the way you did it, maybe each of you have to do it because you probably 110 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:44,200 did it differently. But what we were shooting for was about a 10 minute period per day, 111 00:13:45,399 --> 00:13:52,200 exclusive about the two days of lunar service activity for two of us, and still is going to try to get, 112 00:13:53,879 --> 00:14:01,080 by 10 minute period per day for, including those days. The, uh, method of exercise during the 10 113 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:10,659 minute period was to use this exercise gym device, which we have to operate that in such a fashion 114 00:14:10,820 --> 00:14:16,340 that the old, what they call the big four, where you start out with your legs and, uh, 115 00:14:16,340 --> 00:14:23,620 your feet and two loops in your hands controlling the friction device, from a cross position to a 116 00:14:23,620 --> 00:14:32,820 full stretch out, and do that several times. Then hold the, uh, the, uh, fixed loops and use the 117 00:14:32,820 --> 00:14:39,059 legs on the movable loops, and then hold the fixed loop with the toes and use the biceps. 118 00:14:42,649 --> 00:14:47,529 That's the general pattern that we tried to follow, but we didn't make all of those time periods. 119 00:14:48,490 --> 00:14:55,179 We missed the first day out because of, uh, but we didn't have a schedule for the first day out. 120 00:14:55,179 --> 00:14:59,419 Well, it was in the flight plan, but we hadn't, uh, I don't think anybody's going to exercise the 121 00:14:59,419 --> 00:15:05,980 first day anyway. Uh, in, in fact, it should never have been in the flight plan to exercise the first day. 122 00:15:05,980 --> 00:15:09,820 Pretty hard to get that in in that first day. I don't see any problem with the docking 123 00:15:09,820 --> 00:15:13,740 probes, so that it puts a lot of time. You don't really need it in that first day anyway. 124 00:15:14,539 --> 00:15:22,059 You don't really need it in that first day. Well, uh, in retrospect, I think that it would probably 125 00:15:22,059 --> 00:15:26,139 have been alleviated some of the sore back muscles that first day could go ahead and done it. 126 00:15:26,940 --> 00:15:32,139 In my case, yeah. It was kind of like one of those things where they said, okay, you want to exercise, 127 00:15:33,580 --> 00:15:36,860 put it in the flight plan. I said, yeah, we've got to have it in the flight plan. We won't do it. We're 128 00:15:36,860 --> 00:15:41,419 going to put it as a parade before lunch every day before the middle of the day. That's how I get in there. 129 00:15:42,620 --> 00:15:49,659 Okay. Didn't you say the extra gym or is it is it the extra genie or gym? I think the extra 130 00:15:49,659 --> 00:15:56,379 gym is a trademark. Yeah. Yeah. It's the same thing. It's the friction one. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Okay. 131 00:15:57,340 --> 00:16:01,740 And, and so 10 minutes a day is what you had programmed for the thing. And did you have any, 132 00:16:01,740 --> 00:16:07,500 yeah, many I did. Did you feel that you really got a, got a fair amount? Did you get up any increase 133 00:16:07,500 --> 00:16:12,779 in breeding rate or high rate that you were aware of when you did it? Yeah. We didn't do it quantitatively 134 00:16:12,779 --> 00:16:19,899 but some of you, uh, yeah. I always tried to stop a short of cracking a sweat. It's just not 135 00:16:19,899 --> 00:16:25,019 desirable to get all sweaty in the spacecraft. And I felt like I was pulling it somewhere around 136 00:16:25,019 --> 00:16:30,860 10, 15 minutes. I could feel a heart rate going up and the breathing going up, but I would never do 137 00:16:30,860 --> 00:16:36,700 it to the point of sweat. Okay. And it's not a vigorous exercise. It's more of a, it's a tension 138 00:16:36,700 --> 00:16:43,580 exercise. All right. I put, put enough load on it where it was a, a hard pull, but a slow pull. 139 00:16:45,750 --> 00:16:50,309 Okay. It's due. Did years go about that same weight in for the whole time when you were 140 00:16:50,309 --> 00:16:59,059 alive? No, I, I'd like to just summarize exercise. Uh, in my case, uh, I, uh, I probably didn't 141 00:16:59,059 --> 00:17:05,539 exercise as much in retrospect as I would have if I were doing it again. Uh, for various and 142 00:17:05,539 --> 00:17:12,819 standard reasons, uh, one is, you know, you, you don't feel a need for the exercise. You just got to 143 00:17:12,819 --> 00:17:19,220 say, well, I'm going to, I'm going to go do this. And, uh, there were a couple of times that we got 144 00:17:19,220 --> 00:17:24,500 out the, uh, you know, it says the exercise period. So we got out the exercise and 145 00:17:25,220 --> 00:17:29,779 allinated. Have had it not be doing something or say, well, I'll put it over here and I'll get to 146 00:17:29,779 --> 00:17:36,420 it in a minute. And then, uh, I don't on one occasion, uh, several hours later, I find, got 147 00:17:36,420 --> 00:17:44,980 around to getting the, to getting it and, uh, and doing some exercise on it. The, uh, I'd say probably 148 00:17:44,980 --> 00:17:52,420 five to ten minutes was the length of time. Uh, I, uh, I was strained pretty hard. I didn't work 149 00:17:52,500 --> 00:17:56,579 up a sweat, but, you know, you use this thing. You can use it about any way you want. You can 150 00:17:56,579 --> 00:18:02,579 drag it through the ropes. It's really designed to where you hold and do an isometric first and then 151 00:18:02,579 --> 00:18:08,339 go right from the isometric into the isotonic and, and, and you get the whole, the whole smear. 152 00:18:09,859 --> 00:18:15,940 So I'd hold, uh, hold pressure on the thing and, and strain against it. And, you know, you can 153 00:18:15,940 --> 00:18:21,299 strain as little as hard as you want, but, uh, strain reasonably hard and, and then relax the 154 00:18:21,299 --> 00:18:29,700 tension and, and pull it up. Uh, but I'm trying to think I'm sure that I missed, uh, one exercise 155 00:18:29,700 --> 00:18:34,420 period on the way out completely that Alan made got in. I didn't know exercise at all the 156 00:18:34,420 --> 00:18:42,099 lunar orbit, uh, that thinking of the, uh, extra gym was, uh, never even crossed my mind for those two 157 00:18:42,099 --> 00:18:50,819 days. And then in preparation for, uh, for entry, I said, well, I'm really going to hit that on the 158 00:18:50,819 --> 00:18:57,380 way home. As it turned out, I fairly got in, uh, the one, the one exercise, uh, a day, uh, 159 00:18:59,140 --> 00:19:06,660 that, that we did on the way home. So I, I would say overall, uh, I probably, or, I'm sure I didn't 160 00:19:07,700 --> 00:19:17,589 hit the, uh, extra gym as much as I probably should have. I don't know how, uh, from my point of view, 161 00:19:17,589 --> 00:19:23,430 at least, how you, in a case like this, were you trying to do correlate, uh, the relationship of 162 00:19:23,430 --> 00:19:30,579 the exercise that I did for you know, and it's benefits or like they're off with respect to the, 163 00:19:31,140 --> 00:19:36,500 the, uh, surface grade, which was over 30 hours. I just think the workload, the basic workload, 164 00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:41,299 they're along this and have a different, but that exercise thing down the noise level. 165 00:19:41,299 --> 00:19:44,420 As competition now, the noise levels far as the two of us are concerned. 166 00:19:44,420 --> 00:19:49,460 I think that's probably very right now. And I think the thing we want to know is, you know, 167 00:19:49,460 --> 00:19:54,579 was stew trying to make up for it in some way with exercise in the space, because he obviously, 168 00:19:54,980 --> 00:19:58,099 there's no way he could make up for what you were doing on the surface. 169 00:19:58,099 --> 00:20:02,339 He was trying to, but he had a real busy flight point. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think you could do it. 170 00:20:02,339 --> 00:20:07,140 And this, this is what I wanted to find out was he, was he trying to do a lot more or something during that time? 171 00:20:08,019 --> 00:20:16,019 No, I, uh, I wasn't, I, I think that'd be a difficult thing to try to do really. I, I don't know. 172 00:20:16,019 --> 00:20:23,619 You're going to, uh, maybe with the longer period than in lunar orbit, uh, 173 00:20:24,819 --> 00:20:29,460 C and P may not be quite as busy, uh, or maybe I suspect he probably will be. 174 00:20:29,460 --> 00:20:35,539 I think it's going to be difficult to, uh, to get in my exercise there, but, uh, no, I wasn't. 175 00:20:35,539 --> 00:20:39,779 It's going to be great to do. Yeah. So obvious that stew's, stew's greater interest 176 00:20:39,779 --> 00:20:45,779 we're in on the spacecraft, and for example, B23s took a lot of time. That was the kind of, 177 00:20:45,779 --> 00:20:51,220 this is the kind of thing I'm talking about, but if you're going to get the individuals to, uh, 178 00:20:51,220 --> 00:20:55,779 try to exercise and respond to exercise, then you're going to have to get to a really 179 00:20:55,779 --> 00:21:01,140 explaining benefits or the cruisers all along. Right. Is it really an individual thing? 180 00:21:02,180 --> 00:21:07,059 That's right. And we haven't tried to set any numbers of times that you do anything or anything like that. 181 00:21:07,059 --> 00:21:11,619 And so I think we need to really carefully look at, look at that as an area. Okay, uh, 182 00:21:12,579 --> 00:21:17,220 Ed, while I'm, uh, and one that came up yesterday, when you guys were talking about, uh, 183 00:21:17,220 --> 00:21:22,259 Mertle reminded me of the, and the, and the prompts to head in right with the, the urine, 184 00:21:22,259 --> 00:21:28,819 kinking of the urine hose and so forth. Uh, how much time did you make a conscious effort, uh, 185 00:21:29,380 --> 00:21:33,940 in, in your own particular case because it's important to try to chase down your status 186 00:21:33,940 --> 00:21:41,539 post-flight here. Uh, uh, the time that you had the ensued urine device on, did, did you have it? 187 00:21:41,539 --> 00:21:45,700 Maybe, well, it wasn't my hose, it was kinked. Right, right. It was out. Yeah. 188 00:21:45,700 --> 00:21:49,859 I get her twice hours worth of that. Yeah, probably all the time. All the time. 189 00:21:50,740 --> 00:21:57,380 We, uh, oh, yeah. We had it on, I guess we have to look back on the transcript, 190 00:21:57,380 --> 00:22:01,619 or look back on the flight plan to know when we took it off the first time. We all ensued 191 00:22:01,619 --> 00:22:08,259 it at the same time, which was about six, six hours, seven hours into the flight. All right. 192 00:22:09,059 --> 00:22:19,140 Somewhere in there. And, uh, we put the UZTA zone, uh, PDI morning, and we took them off, 193 00:22:20,099 --> 00:22:25,940 only when we got back to the spacecraft after talking. And it was all for those who curious, 194 00:22:28,059 --> 00:22:33,980 only. And I never experienced any discomfort. I never had any problems whatsoever. That was 195 00:22:34,940 --> 00:22:44,519 we discussed pre-flight, no symptoms of any sort. Great. Well, it looks like, you know, 196 00:22:44,519 --> 00:22:50,200 we didn't have any, and you did well. How did you feel? Uh, that's another one we might just, 197 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:55,880 you know, I'm fluid intake. It sounds like you all thought the water was great. So you were, 198 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:01,400 you were drinking well, uh, did, did you, were you trying to force fluid? Were you trying to 199 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:08,039 consciously force fluid? Yeah, I think you now. Uh, in my case anyhow, I tried to drink, take 200 00:23:08,039 --> 00:23:14,359 a drink out of the water, and about every time I went by it, I did find that I preferred the juices 201 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:22,279 to water. And surprisingly enough, as much as I did not care for the juices, pre-flight, particularly, 202 00:23:22,279 --> 00:23:28,119 I didn't pray over anything. Uh, we were drinking a couple of juices per meal, a large portion of 203 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:34,119 the time. I was. And in addition, uh, taking the shots from the water down about every time I go by it. 204 00:23:36,039 --> 00:23:41,319 I, I, I forced myself to drink the water, uh, not that it tasted bad or anything, but just, 205 00:23:42,039 --> 00:23:49,319 just to keep the fluid intake up. And so I would, I would drink water, uh, you know, like it says, 206 00:23:49,319 --> 00:23:53,799 every time you pass the water, you say, well, I think I'll try some of that. And one person 207 00:23:53,799 --> 00:24:01,559 would take a drink of water and pass it around and would put it back up. Did, uh, as I understand, 208 00:24:01,559 --> 00:24:06,519 though, you, you stay in the D-Rin, you, you thought you drank about half of the juices as they did. 209 00:24:06,519 --> 00:24:11,559 I said, it's probably a good average. Uh, they, they, I know, I'd say probably say a third less. 210 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:18,119 A third less? Yeah. In juices. Yeah, you drank two juices. So, yeah, I drank two occasionally. 211 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:25,720 Toward the, toward the end, I was, I was drinking two more than, uh, I was because a lot of times, 212 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:33,400 you drink a cocoa and a juice and I bypassed the cocoa, uh, and I just drink a juice. So, I'd say 213 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:40,859 probably, and this is a wag, but I'd say a third less juice than they did. Well, I think I kind of 214 00:24:40,859 --> 00:24:47,339 decided I was going to try to do everything I could to, uh, you end up in it as the check was 215 00:24:47,339 --> 00:24:52,220 I could at the end of the mission, which included, uh, keeping the food intake and the food intake up 216 00:24:52,940 --> 00:24:59,339 as well as the exercise. And, uh, this journey, what we tried to do. You did a great 217 00:24:59,339 --> 00:25:09,339 long time. We had to try to get two juices per, per meal most of the time. Okay, there was a, uh, 218 00:25:09,339 --> 00:25:14,619 question here if I did, uh, for you, particularly, did you eat more, do you feel why you were, 219 00:25:14,619 --> 00:25:18,140 well, they were with you out and they were with you in the spacecraft. And when you were alone, 220 00:25:18,779 --> 00:25:25,579 eating the drink better, I saw on your food thing. Well, I'll say, uh, excuse me, go ahead. I saw 221 00:25:25,579 --> 00:25:31,740 on your food, uh, uh, comments here that, that you, you had difficulty, you know, the food preparation 222 00:25:31,740 --> 00:25:35,180 thing you'd have preferred if you had some, some, like some canned things you could have 223 00:25:35,180 --> 00:25:39,900 opened quickly and gotten to when you were alone that way. And I can surely understand that. I think 224 00:25:39,900 --> 00:25:46,619 it's a good idea. Well, that's the way I did it. Uh, because we had them there. I guess it 225 00:25:46,619 --> 00:25:54,089 didn't come out right because that's the way I did it in New York. I would say, uh, I'd say the 226 00:25:54,089 --> 00:26:01,130 answer your question would be yes, uh, that, uh, that I ate more when, when they were in there. 227 00:26:01,130 --> 00:26:06,650 And, but the idea of people being together is, is nothing in that. It's a time factor. Yeah. 228 00:26:06,650 --> 00:26:13,849 Uh, during the coast, during the coast phase, you have more, uh, you have more time to, 229 00:26:13,849 --> 00:26:20,009 you know, the word about eating. Uh, during that lunar orbit phase, I didn't have any time at all. 230 00:26:20,009 --> 00:26:25,609 And, uh, to, you know, any extra time and particularly with the troubleshooting the 231 00:26:25,609 --> 00:26:32,970 high con and so forth, uh, so, uh, I didn't have the inclination or why don't go to the trouble 232 00:26:32,970 --> 00:26:40,809 of trying to mix up a, a meal as such and I didn't much like the, the going to all that trouble 233 00:26:40,809 --> 00:26:46,490 anyway. So, uh, I opened up, you know, a can of that chicken salad, I think it was and I had that 234 00:26:46,490 --> 00:26:52,089 for breakfast and, uh, in a wet pack and, you know, that's the type of food that you can really get 235 00:26:52,089 --> 00:26:58,250 to in a hurry and eat. Right. So I wouldn't say overall that, uh, that probably ended up eating too much 236 00:26:58,250 --> 00:27:02,329 last, but it was a little different rather than sitting down and mixing up a rehydratable 237 00:27:02,329 --> 00:27:07,690 pack and so forth. So the total amount, you don't think was any different because you're there, 238 00:27:07,690 --> 00:27:14,009 but it was just different kinds of food. It may have been a little last but, uh, do you, 239 00:27:14,009 --> 00:27:18,329 do you personally feel now you know the weight losses involved here? You know, you know, you're, 240 00:27:18,329 --> 00:27:25,529 you know, that they, uh, you got one pound each year and you got a 10 pound one and I heard you're 241 00:27:25,529 --> 00:27:32,329 coming about the scale yesterday too. But, uh, with, do you have any personal reason why you think 242 00:27:33,130 --> 00:27:36,490 there's that much difference in the weight loss I mean, is there any, do you know that you 243 00:27:36,490 --> 00:27:43,210 personally tried to account for it other than the food intake, water intake or anything of that sort? 244 00:27:45,900 --> 00:27:53,900 No, I just, I'm not sure that there's anything magic about, uh, about the zero G or the fly, 245 00:27:54,140 --> 00:28:01,980 I would suspect I'd probably lost several pounds if I'd eaten that same, uh, same menu and sat right 246 00:28:01,980 --> 00:28:14,339 here. Uh, I, uh, I probably think that I was, uh, turning pounds overweight when I went into the 247 00:28:14,339 --> 00:28:19,940 flight, uh, some matter of fact, you know, I'm not a big eater and, uh, during most of my, uh, during most 248 00:28:19,940 --> 00:28:26,420 of the time you come up on training, uh, I drink a can of sego and a can of eight juice for breakfast. 249 00:28:27,059 --> 00:28:36,180 And then I eat a sandwich for lunch and, uh, you know, maybe drink, uh, two or three cans of beer 250 00:28:36,180 --> 00:28:43,940 and eat a sandwich and even. And, you know, I, you know, I can go for days on a menu like that 251 00:28:43,940 --> 00:28:48,900 and I don't know how many calories all that adds up to you, but, uh, you know, it's, it's not a really 252 00:28:49,619 --> 00:28:57,619 high calorie, uh, diet. And I would say that that pretty much was my diet for three months prior to 253 00:28:57,619 --> 00:29:03,539 going into quarantine was just about what I, uh, what I stated there. And then when we got in the 254 00:29:03,539 --> 00:29:08,660 quarantine, or then I started eating, eating more breakfast and eating a bigger meal in the evening. 255 00:29:09,380 --> 00:29:14,900 And, uh, so I think I probably, uh, it was sort of four pounds heavy going in, going into the flight. 256 00:29:14,900 --> 00:29:24,579 And, uh, so I, uh, I think, uh, the weight loss may be overplayed a little bit because I think, uh, 257 00:29:26,339 --> 00:29:31,779 had a few extra pounds and then plus, I don't think that, uh, maybe we picked the right, uh, 258 00:29:31,779 --> 00:29:38,660 the right weight up on the, on the rolling scales. But, uh, that's needed here and there, you know. 259 00:29:39,619 --> 00:29:44,819 Well, we can probably show you something about that from when we get your lab mature of 260 00:29:44,819 --> 00:29:48,339 pulling together. I think we'd be able to give you a better handle on that as to whether, 261 00:29:48,339 --> 00:29:53,299 you know, it really was something that had to do with the zero G state or not. We hope we'll be able 262 00:29:53,299 --> 00:29:57,779 to do that. So we'll, we'll try. Well, like it is, they had the general comment, which I think 263 00:29:57,779 --> 00:30:03,460 reflects the consensus here, the three of us that, that with respect to the food in general, the type of 264 00:30:03,460 --> 00:30:09,539 food, the method by which it was packaged and so on. And, uh, and the degree to which we like, 265 00:30:09,539 --> 00:30:15,619 it just like it was primarily a function of the, uh, level of activity in the flight plan. 266 00:30:16,180 --> 00:30:20,660 But the business is going into the pantry and taking time to select foods and drinks and so on 267 00:30:20,660 --> 00:30:28,019 and it's fine during the quiet periods because that things like, uh, like spoon, spoon packages are 268 00:30:28,019 --> 00:30:32,660 good. The level of activity is not too high, but certainly the level of activity is high. 269 00:30:33,220 --> 00:30:39,220 The wet packs and the cans and that's why I want to take time food. I think this is a general comment 270 00:30:39,220 --> 00:30:46,420 that really reflects our consensus here. It was a time consuming part of the day to prepare meals. 271 00:30:48,180 --> 00:30:52,660 Get them all, get them out of the food box, get them all laid out, cut all the tops off, 272 00:30:52,660 --> 00:30:57,059 up and get all the water into them, get them the sausage and go buddy. Get the pill back in there 273 00:30:57,059 --> 00:31:04,180 when you throw it back in. It's an effort. And, uh, you know, it's a lot easier to open up a can 274 00:31:04,180 --> 00:31:09,299 and a wet pack and then, uh, then you, then you think it's a lot of trouble to mix up the juice. 275 00:31:09,299 --> 00:31:13,140 But, uh, you know, that, and that way you got your meal and you're through and you're on your way. 276 00:31:13,140 --> 00:31:21,700 Right. Okay. The cooking problem, of course, is, uh, is still a problem, which has been fairly, fairly 277 00:31:21,700 --> 00:31:28,500 common, I guess. I think I think I've got plenty of time. You don't mind, but it's a very pleasant hour. 278 00:31:28,500 --> 00:31:33,940 Yeah. It gets rid of that pain. Very effectively. But I would say in my case that watching these 279 00:31:33,940 --> 00:31:41,539 guys eat, you know, they, they went right down the menu and, uh, so I thought, you know, I, uh, 280 00:31:41,539 --> 00:31:47,700 I really, I really should do that. But, uh, I just didn't have an inclination to eat that meal. 281 00:31:47,700 --> 00:31:51,140 I'd, uh, you know, even though you know on your own mind, you know, hey, you ought to do this. 282 00:31:51,140 --> 00:31:56,339 You know, and, uh, you ought to keep yourself, you know, eat just as much as you possibly can. 283 00:31:56,339 --> 00:31:59,859 I just couldn't get around to doing it. In fact, several times I'd mix the food up. 284 00:31:59,859 --> 00:32:03,299 And then by the time I'd eat a couple of packages, you know, I just couldn't get to the, 285 00:32:03,299 --> 00:32:05,859 to the third package. And so I'd put it back in the panther. 286 00:32:06,500 --> 00:32:10,099 Let's do, uh, one of the things that's going to come out of there is somebody, you know, 287 00:32:10,099 --> 00:32:15,299 reading the, the, the, uh, debriefing itself. The obvious question comes up, okay, 288 00:32:15,299 --> 00:32:21,779 was your loss of it, your lack of appetite itself. Was it just plain lack of appetite? 289 00:32:21,779 --> 00:32:26,660 Or did you really have any, any discomfort as far as the gut was concerned at all? 290 00:32:26,660 --> 00:32:34,259 Anything that, that you've felt was pathological in your loss of appetite due to the environment or anything? 291 00:32:34,259 --> 00:32:40,259 No, no. I don't think there's anything at all. I could say, I think it, it, it boils down to a lot of 292 00:32:40,259 --> 00:32:46,259 just too much food, you know, you, you bundle up one of those meals. And, uh, there's just too much 293 00:32:46,259 --> 00:32:53,220 there to eat. Were any of you ever thirsty? You gonna fly? Did you or dry? 294 00:32:53,220 --> 00:32:59,460 You were dry. Yeah, I, I, you were dry, uh, quite a bit. You know, you'd have a sensation of 295 00:32:59,460 --> 00:33:03,220 dryness and you'd want, and water, you know, juice would make you want some water. Yeah. 296 00:33:04,099 --> 00:33:08,500 Did you, while we're at it, we might just wipe out the water. Did you guys drink the water in your 297 00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:14,980 suits? Idiated. Yeah. Drank all of his. I just drank a lot of through, I think. 298 00:33:14,980 --> 00:33:19,140 Out of three. Well, the first one I don't know how much of when I drank, I thought I didn't get the bag, 299 00:33:19,779 --> 00:33:26,099 but apparently, uh, the wall to the bag got around the drink tube and I didn't get it all out because 300 00:33:26,099 --> 00:33:35,700 it drained down around my neck during the sleep period. Okay. I had a leaky one also one time to go. 301 00:33:39,109 --> 00:33:43,190 Okay. Did you fill them up again and when you went out second, you know, and you drank about, 302 00:33:43,190 --> 00:33:47,349 you think you drank about 30 years, both times? I say, uh, I didn't really stop at three two. Yeah. 303 00:33:48,069 --> 00:33:53,910 Yeah. I drank all of mine in the second EVA, uh, and I can't remember whether I drank it all or not. 304 00:33:54,549 --> 00:34:00,309 If I didn't, there may be something still in it. Okay. All right. Hey, one of the comments on, 305 00:34:00,309 --> 00:34:07,190 while we're on there eating, uh, far from here, uh, we ran completely out of these, uh, bite-sized, 306 00:34:07,190 --> 00:34:13,429 uh, packages, you know, and to me, that was the best, the best thing we had, you, these little, 307 00:34:13,429 --> 00:34:18,389 you know, turkey sandwiches, cheese sandwiches, and, uh, and that sort of thing because that was a 308 00:34:18,389 --> 00:34:23,989 no sweat operation. You just clip that off and I can't adjust and you could go at it. So I really 309 00:34:23,989 --> 00:34:30,630 liked those and, uh, I ate all those generally that could get my hands on and, uh, we ran out of those. 310 00:34:30,630 --> 00:34:36,949 Well, we ran out of both everything else. No, not really. I had all kinds of food. 311 00:34:39,909 --> 00:34:47,269 If I may make a comment, the student of mine, uh, about, well, obviously, being able to have us, um, 312 00:34:47,269 --> 00:34:52,949 this flight plan is really something that he worked on, developed for the flight. It's, it's a busy 313 00:34:52,949 --> 00:34:57,750 flight plan. It's a full one. And it was my impression that he was more interested in 314 00:34:57,750 --> 00:35:01,670 being sure that the flight plan was done properly than, uh, the needy. Oh, yeah. 315 00:35:02,710 --> 00:35:07,670 I think that affected the, sure, the grade, which again gets back the level of activity versus the, 316 00:35:08,789 --> 00:35:13,190 if you guys can get a little, for example, those drink bags, get a little diaphragm on the end. 317 00:35:13,989 --> 00:35:18,789 Just stick over a needle to pump the water in that way and shake it up, pull the plug out and 318 00:35:18,789 --> 00:35:21,829 rig it out the same needle. It would be a lot easier for those drinks. 319 00:35:21,829 --> 00:35:27,989 I mean, for the, for the juices and things, you mean, all cutting. Yeah. So that you don't, 320 00:35:27,989 --> 00:35:31,829 so you don't end up having to sort of be, you got to drink the whole damn thing once you get it down. 321 00:35:31,829 --> 00:35:36,070 You see, you got to drink back and you got a little moral, uh, thing. It's all sucked in, 322 00:35:36,070 --> 00:35:39,989 the plastic is all pulled down. So I had exactly right, first of all, you can't get out of the 323 00:35:39,989 --> 00:35:44,150 nozzle without any relief. And you get it all down and you got to go cut the other end. 324 00:35:45,190 --> 00:35:49,030 And I was just thinking, maybe it might be an easier way to put a diaphragm to put it on the other 325 00:35:49,030 --> 00:35:53,190 end. Well, you could stick over a hypodermic type of thing and get the water in that way. 326 00:35:53,190 --> 00:35:58,150 Might be a little bit quicker way to put it. Okay. Anything you can do to make it easier is 327 00:35:58,150 --> 00:36:01,829 going to help increase the consumption. Right. Particularly during busy time periods. 328 00:36:02,869 --> 00:36:08,550 Okay. But, uh, could we get you, uh, and this is going to involve just really, uh, 329 00:36:08,550 --> 00:36:14,309 Alan and, uh, yeah, we, we'd like to have you describe as well as, as you can, 330 00:36:14,309 --> 00:36:20,309 the things that you did with your, uh, with your bio instrumentation harness is when, because 331 00:36:20,309 --> 00:36:24,150 it's very hard for us to be sure exactly what happened. We don't have that stuff back yet. 332 00:36:24,150 --> 00:36:27,670 We're going to set, we've got to, uh, got to develop a way in the trouble she did. 333 00:36:28,550 --> 00:36:33,829 And as I, the thing that happened with yours out, just from our actions, not the words, 334 00:36:33,829 --> 00:36:38,550 I mean, you love the actions, not the words. Yeah. Okay. 335 00:36:39,510 --> 00:36:41,989 Well, you said in some of the words, too. 336 00:36:43,269 --> 00:36:48,389 But what, from our point of view, what happened with your particular, uh, harness is 337 00:36:48,389 --> 00:36:55,110 everything was fine when everybody left the, the, uh, MSOB. Okay. We got, when you got into the 338 00:36:55,110 --> 00:37:00,630 spacecraft. Right after you got, apparently, when you were getting cinched down somehow, 339 00:37:00,630 --> 00:37:06,630 uh, because we had about three minutes or so after you were in, uh, in the couch of good data 340 00:37:07,030 --> 00:37:11,110 and you then we began to get erratic. They, they began to want, the baseline began to want 341 00:37:11,110 --> 00:37:17,190 over the place. Uh, that continued to get worse and worse. And pretty soon it was going 342 00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:24,949 just full scale, which was totally unreadable. So the question was, okay, it had, it was a question 343 00:37:24,949 --> 00:37:31,590 about hatch closure at that point in time. We, uh, decided, right, right then, I said, well, 344 00:37:31,590 --> 00:37:35,989 hell, we're going to go, we're going to go without that because I'm sure it's a sensor. And the 345 00:37:35,989 --> 00:37:40,150 only way to get at it, anyway, if you, we asked you then to try and press on those things, 346 00:37:40,710 --> 00:37:46,630 if that wouldn't do it, if that wouldn't recede it, uh, then the, the first option would be 347 00:37:46,630 --> 00:37:53,030 when we got you actually in flight. Now, we don't know why, but it came back. It was gone still, uh, 348 00:37:53,030 --> 00:37:57,989 when you went over Australia, as you came back up on the states magically, there we had data. 349 00:37:58,789 --> 00:38:04,869 And we went back to the MSOB from the firing room to catch that pass. And there you were, 350 00:38:05,269 --> 00:38:09,590 that was beautiful, just as if nothing had ever happened. And you hadn't done a damn thing, 351 00:38:09,590 --> 00:38:14,949 because then we asked them, you know, as you know, now, uh, as we understand, when you looked at 352 00:38:14,949 --> 00:38:20,869 that sensor, then, that you did have some material that had leaked out from underneath it. And you, 353 00:38:20,869 --> 00:38:26,469 and we understand that you replaced that, so you cleaned up and replaced that sensor, is that right? 354 00:38:26,469 --> 00:38:33,429 We didn't replace the sensor, no. Okay, just to clear it off, refill it, put a new sticky back on it 355 00:38:33,429 --> 00:38:38,630 and then put it back on. Yeah, okay. That was the second day of the flight. Yeah, the second day. 356 00:38:38,630 --> 00:38:43,190 Right. Yeah. That was the first time that we really, and that we asked you to do that, 357 00:38:43,190 --> 00:38:46,230 then because we thought we'd get it out of the way before you got into it. Okay. 358 00:38:47,030 --> 00:38:49,909 And then you had another, also, changed the adapter. 359 00:38:51,030 --> 00:38:55,429 You see, it'd be a G adapter, because then one time on the flight, they said my comm was very good. 360 00:38:55,429 --> 00:39:00,469 Yeah, your comm was terrible, right? Yeah, a spare adapter, and so it changed that. I'm glad you learned 361 00:39:00,469 --> 00:39:04,230 that wasn't, I don't know, but that was pretty early, too. I think it was the first day, right? 362 00:39:04,230 --> 00:39:05,510 Yeah, I think it was the first day. 363 00:39:06,869 --> 00:39:10,710 And all that was the Lord. That was okay, ready to do the launch problem because, of course, 364 00:39:10,710 --> 00:39:17,909 no. No, no. And we had it. We had a, uh, respiration on you. You can see respiration, but we didn't have to, 365 00:39:17,909 --> 00:39:25,349 that's good. Yeah, yeah, but we didn't have an ECG. Yeah, we're really sure we can make that night good. 366 00:39:25,349 --> 00:39:29,429 Hey, how can you correlate the reappearance of your ECG signal with any, uh, 367 00:39:29,429 --> 00:39:31,510 flight activity that you might have been doing it? 368 00:39:31,510 --> 00:39:36,150 I sure can't. This is modified about that. You were, I tried to press it through a suit or anything. 369 00:39:36,150 --> 00:39:38,070 It happened. I can't feel anything too soon. 370 00:39:38,070 --> 00:39:40,949 Well, you were free then. No, you had your helmet gloves off. 371 00:39:40,949 --> 00:39:45,429 It was one hour and 30 minutes G-T-O, the, kind of, everything else. 372 00:39:45,429 --> 00:39:50,469 How was the bus arrived at that time? We were moving around with the bus insertion checklist, 373 00:39:50,469 --> 00:39:54,630 and there's a movement in the couch like diving and getting some things and pulling on, 374 00:39:54,630 --> 00:39:58,949 and still that sort of stuff. It's probably, it just got to be that you were probably just, 375 00:39:58,949 --> 00:40:03,590 it was in the sentient down in the, in the couch that it probably loosened that, 376 00:40:03,590 --> 00:40:07,750 the enter that sensor somehow a little bit. And, uh, I don't know why. 377 00:40:08,869 --> 00:40:13,110 Or put a crepe in a lead or, yeah, brought it to contact with the something else. 378 00:40:13,110 --> 00:40:16,309 Yeah. Because it sure came back fine after that. 379 00:40:16,389 --> 00:40:20,230 Okay, then the second time, what, what else did you have with, with yours now? 380 00:40:20,230 --> 00:40:22,469 From your, what else did you do to the thing? 381 00:40:22,469 --> 00:40:26,949 You know, the thing I noticed was about the, uh, next the last day, 382 00:40:28,070 --> 00:40:34,550 that the thread coupling between the sensor line, sensor harness, and belt, 383 00:40:35,750 --> 00:40:39,590 the, uh, little, that insertion belt on top of the signal condition. 384 00:40:39,590 --> 00:40:43,269 Yeah, the, uh, strip of the threads. I could get it to hold a little bit, 385 00:40:43,829 --> 00:40:46,630 and, uh, apparently the signal was fine, then it would slip off. 386 00:40:46,630 --> 00:40:48,389 But it came back beautifully when you tell you. 387 00:40:49,269 --> 00:40:52,469 But then what I considered at the end, I noticed that was loose, so, 388 00:40:53,429 --> 00:40:57,110 it threads apparently stripped on the, probably a good crack down too hard. 389 00:40:57,909 --> 00:41:05,349 Did, uh, did, did you, uh, routinely, uh, disconnect that connector at the signal 390 00:41:05,349 --> 00:41:11,989 condition here for sleep or, for, uh, bowel movements, for bowel movements, and for, swapping down, 391 00:41:11,989 --> 00:41:17,909 cleaning out process. In time, in time you pulled your clothes off to either change clothes, 392 00:41:17,909 --> 00:41:24,070 so, uh, put on the LCD or use the blue bags, whatever we all want to do. 393 00:41:27,659 --> 00:41:31,900 Okay, and then, uh, you didn't replace anything. 394 00:41:31,900 --> 00:41:36,139 You didn't do it after, uh, recede any sensor after that. 395 00:41:36,139 --> 00:41:38,059 That was the only other thing you had was the signal. 396 00:41:38,059 --> 00:41:39,980 It was your entire intake of the sensor off. 397 00:41:39,980 --> 00:41:40,699 Was that personal? 398 00:41:40,699 --> 00:41:44,380 That car was correct because, I mean, take it out and you can see the secret to the 399 00:41:44,380 --> 00:41:45,500 electrolyte. 400 00:41:45,500 --> 00:41:48,599 Right. Same with the unit. 401 00:41:48,599 --> 00:41:49,239 Okay. 402 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:50,519 How about yours in here? 403 00:41:50,519 --> 00:41:52,679 The only thing that replaced was that one sensor. 404 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:54,440 Which one was it? 405 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:57,159 And it was, uh, the whole sensor? 406 00:41:57,159 --> 00:41:58,599 I don't mean replace the sensor. 407 00:41:58,599 --> 00:42:02,840 We pulled it off, cleaned it out, refilled it with electrolyte, put it back on. 408 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:03,320 It was the same. 409 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:04,440 Just the same outfit. 410 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,280 Okay. 411 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,960 You did not take the harness out of the kit and replace the whole thing. 412 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:10,440 Okay. 413 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:11,079 Because that's it. 414 00:42:11,079 --> 00:42:13,320 We thought you had done that, and that's it. 415 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,639 You called and asked for that, but there wasn't time to do it. 416 00:42:15,639 --> 00:42:16,199 So, we took... 417 00:42:16,199 --> 00:42:18,360 Glad you could hear what we said when you guys said that. 418 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,880 We took the chance that the real problem was simply the sensor and the electrolyte, 419 00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:24,760 and that's what it was. 420 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:25,960 That's exactly where it was. 421 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,440 We couldn't affect the worst time in the standpoint of time. 422 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:29,239 Is that right? 423 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,159 We were just getting ready to go into the lab, you know, 424 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:36,679 and boy, everybody's all asking elbows and suits, and underwear, and gear, 425 00:42:36,679 --> 00:42:38,679 and books, and everything all over the place. 426 00:42:38,679 --> 00:42:40,599 I was sitting here hand dressed. 427 00:42:40,599 --> 00:42:43,079 I didn't want to go any further until we got to go on it. 428 00:42:43,079 --> 00:42:45,719 We couldn't get the high bend right up for you guys to look at it. 429 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:46,519 Right. 430 00:42:46,519 --> 00:42:48,840 And so it was one new time left. 431 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,679 So, we changed that when I went ahead and dressed. 432 00:42:50,679 --> 00:42:51,000 Yeah. 433 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,360 Do you know when you came up there, though, the, uh, the, uh, the data, 434 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,480 you gave us about two minutes, uh, when the high gain did lock on, 435 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:01,159 and we got two minutes of data, and it did still show the, uh, 436 00:43:01,159 --> 00:43:02,039 the loose sensor. 437 00:43:02,039 --> 00:43:04,519 Now, what did you, what did you do the second time? 438 00:43:04,519 --> 00:43:08,280 Uh, did you, uh, you came up and asked us how the data looked, 439 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,679 and we said it looked poor yet, and we gave you no more of the 440 00:43:10,679 --> 00:43:12,920 suiting to, uh, change our partners. 441 00:43:14,199 --> 00:43:18,519 I don't recall exactly the sequence of events, uh, 442 00:43:21,159 --> 00:43:24,360 when, when I called and asked for you to check it, 443 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,320 yeah, as far as I know, we did nothing after that, 444 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:31,159 except make sure everything was cinched down and went ahead and dressed. 445 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,079 Didn't, didn't you do something with the, with the fluid in there? 446 00:43:35,079 --> 00:43:37,159 Yeah, but I'd already done it at that point. 447 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:43,400 We did the, I changed the electrolyte when I called and asked you guys to check it. 448 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:48,840 Uh, I didn't nothing after that except just make sure everything was secure. 449 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,320 Yeah, because you see the first time you called the data was poor, 450 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,880 and that was the basis for the call and change our partners, 451 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,840 because we said, well, wasn't that sensor, and we didn't have time to talk to you, 452 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,599 because LOS was coming up, so we said, go ahead and change out the whole thing, 453 00:44:00,599 --> 00:44:04,760 but whatever you did subsequently corrected it, because it came back beautifully, 454 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,159 so we assumed you just changed out the horrors. 455 00:44:07,159 --> 00:44:08,760 Let's think of a little hollywood. 456 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:09,320 Yeah, yeah. 457 00:44:12,119 --> 00:44:17,559 So you know, as you mentioned it, you know, I just can't remember precisely when we changed it, 458 00:44:17,559 --> 00:44:21,480 but I'm, but I'm thinking that it was already changed at that point. 459 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:23,000 Oh, okay. 460 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:29,639 Is it, uh, uh, it was just the lower, the strut, the strut, the same as the L. 461 00:44:29,639 --> 00:44:30,440 I remember that change. 462 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:31,719 It was electrolyte that was replaced. 463 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:36,519 Yeah, whatever you had to take it off, by changing it off and playing it and putting it back, 464 00:44:36,519 --> 00:44:37,400 just sticking it back. 465 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,480 Okay, and, and you think you did that before LOS? 466 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,119 Yeah, he probably did what we were thinking now happened probably, 467 00:44:46,119 --> 00:44:49,480 took a while for it to see properly, and then when he came around it was good. 468 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:55,559 Well, his state, state good then, and then we were having trouble with yours going, 469 00:44:55,559 --> 00:45:01,639 and you began to get this one rebase line on yours again before the, you know, after we got 470 00:45:01,639 --> 00:45:04,840 into the limit, so there was a question in our minds about it. 471 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:09,239 Is there any way we could do it to, to get that better, you know, to make that better? 472 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:14,760 We were trying to find, trying to figure some way, could you reach around when you were in the suit? 473 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,440 Is there any way you could get at that thing if you took like, after the EVA, 474 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:19,960 if you ended up picking the helmet off? 475 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,719 Could you get down into the, into the suit here? 476 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:28,039 You really have to have the upper torso garment, the upper part of the torso garment, 477 00:45:28,039 --> 00:45:30,199 clear the body in order to be able to feel that. 478 00:45:30,199 --> 00:45:32,519 In order to be able to feel that way, you could definitely tell you know, 479 00:45:32,519 --> 00:45:35,639 the other guy goes through the backs if we're around in front. 480 00:45:35,639 --> 00:45:39,559 Then we tried that on the ground to see if you could do that, and that's pretty hard to do. 481 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:41,960 The most you can do is press on it. 482 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,519 After all that time of quarantine, that's pretty dangerous too. 483 00:45:44,519 --> 00:45:45,159 Yeah, yeah. 484 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,000 Depends on where your hand is at, okay. 485 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,039 Forget the EVA, just keep pulling with my sensory. 486 00:45:58,599 --> 00:46:00,440 You've got two hours to stop that. 487 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:05,239 Oh, okay. 488 00:46:11,179 --> 00:46:16,219 The thing we got from the sleep, and I, which I think is fairly work hard with you, 489 00:46:16,219 --> 00:46:18,940 if you have anything to add to that, we'd like you to. 490 00:46:18,940 --> 00:46:26,139 But what we got out of it is that all of you pretty well never really had a solid long sleep period 491 00:46:26,139 --> 00:46:30,860 that it was broken and it was things like a couple of hours at a time or something. 492 00:46:30,860 --> 00:46:34,059 And I gather that the reasons for that vary. 493 00:46:34,059 --> 00:46:41,659 You had some difficulty with wanting to feel some pressure in its case, I know. 494 00:46:41,659 --> 00:46:46,139 And this is how I mentioned this too, and stew didn't like the couch. 495 00:46:46,139 --> 00:46:52,139 And then you ended up in the limb, the thing was being the suits all the time, 496 00:46:52,139 --> 00:46:56,860 and then the tilt of the limb to both those things probably had a lot to do with sleep activity. 497 00:46:56,860 --> 00:47:02,940 Is there anything else that you can add to you feel that you were rested enough to do the task 498 00:47:02,940 --> 00:47:04,300 even with the sleep that you had? 499 00:47:05,099 --> 00:47:08,539 Yeah, but I think we're working on reserves, yeah, I did too. 500 00:47:08,619 --> 00:47:11,260 Well, there were two days that we felt sloppy. 501 00:47:12,619 --> 00:47:17,659 One was the second day out after the excitement of the launch and all that, 502 00:47:19,739 --> 00:47:22,619 being becoming, becoming acclimated to the new environment. 503 00:47:23,500 --> 00:47:28,300 So we felt like we weren't really clinging on to the second day out. 504 00:47:28,300 --> 00:47:33,659 And the day after TDI, although we all apparently slept better after TDI, that night, 505 00:47:33,659 --> 00:47:38,460 I guess it was probably the terms of continuous sleep was probably the best way to do it. 506 00:47:38,460 --> 00:47:42,219 Still, the next day we felt like we were not really harmonized. 507 00:47:42,219 --> 00:47:47,579 We got things done, but the little things were not being handled as neatly as we would like to see them. 508 00:47:47,579 --> 00:47:52,699 So this is the only two days we felt that we weren't on top of the flight plan. 509 00:47:53,900 --> 00:47:59,260 I think, Chuck, I feel that for no longer than we work for nine days, 510 00:47:59,900 --> 00:48:05,179 that you can get along on a fairly small amount of sleep, and just your reserves, 511 00:48:05,179 --> 00:48:08,860 and your discipline, and everything else makes you do the job properly. 512 00:48:08,860 --> 00:48:13,500 But in my case, I felt very strongly that I was on reserves, 513 00:48:14,059 --> 00:48:16,300 that physically I was going downhill. 514 00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:22,219 It was of some concern to me that I wasn't getting enough sleep. 515 00:48:22,219 --> 00:48:23,980 I knew I wasn't getting enough sleep. 516 00:48:23,980 --> 00:48:29,579 And yet, I felt fairly wide awake and alert on most of the days, except two days I was talking about. 517 00:48:30,780 --> 00:48:33,260 But sleeping to me was a very insecure experience. 518 00:48:35,179 --> 00:48:38,460 And how do you mean, because of this wanting something, 519 00:48:38,460 --> 00:48:43,179 wanting to feel like you, the best I could say, feel like you were in a bed, 520 00:48:43,179 --> 00:48:47,739 wanting to feel suppression, or to be lying on something. 521 00:48:47,739 --> 00:49:02,219 It was a pleasant experience to be in zero G during the daytime, I thought. 522 00:49:02,380 --> 00:49:04,699 It wasn't quite some pleasant experience at night. 523 00:49:05,500 --> 00:49:07,420 Well, that brings up the thing. 524 00:49:07,420 --> 00:49:10,380 Did you feel, I'd get it from Al's comments in particular, 525 00:49:11,099 --> 00:49:17,019 this business of using your legs and your feet to try and hang on to something, 526 00:49:17,019 --> 00:49:20,460 which has been described by other guys, too, at some length. 527 00:49:22,139 --> 00:49:27,260 Did you have a feeling that that was the cause of this muscle business in your back more than, 528 00:49:27,260 --> 00:49:31,019 because you know, that's been described, and they've never been able to really put a hand on the 529 00:49:31,019 --> 00:49:35,820 line they felt for the hand that they've had this sort of feeling that if they could just stretch 530 00:49:35,820 --> 00:49:37,019 that real good, it'd be great. 531 00:49:37,019 --> 00:49:41,179 You think it is due to the fact that you had, we're trying to rock on the summer. 532 00:49:41,179 --> 00:49:41,980 Thank you, Jack. 533 00:49:41,980 --> 00:49:45,659 Yeah, as soon as that's why I analyzed it after the first couple of days, 534 00:49:45,659 --> 00:49:49,099 I think we discussed it in that fact, and so we started exercise, 535 00:49:49,099 --> 00:49:54,380 and then deliberately take time to relax, not only during the sleep period, 536 00:49:54,380 --> 00:49:59,500 but also try to adapt ourselves to a relaxed state during the awake periods 537 00:49:59,500 --> 00:50:03,099 of the states or on the optics or in the tunnel or something. 538 00:50:03,099 --> 00:50:05,260 And after the second day, it kind of went away. 539 00:50:05,260 --> 00:50:09,340 Yeah, that small of the back problem was gone after a couple of days, 540 00:50:09,340 --> 00:50:15,019 and in fact, I was kind of surprised that at that woke up that first morning, 541 00:50:15,739 --> 00:50:18,059 and my back had bothered me during the night, 542 00:50:18,059 --> 00:50:25,900 and I didn't realize that Alan Ed's head back was bothering at that time, too, you know, 543 00:50:25,900 --> 00:50:28,539 and I said, you know, I really didn't get that much sleep, 544 00:50:28,539 --> 00:50:35,179 but this sounds crazy as all hell, because I can lay on that big fine 545 00:50:35,179 --> 00:50:38,860 king size bed at the house, and if I get a lot of sleep, 546 00:50:38,860 --> 00:50:41,340 you know, if I lay there for, say, 10 or 11 hours, 547 00:50:41,340 --> 00:50:45,739 why the small of my back bothers me, and I said to these guys, 548 00:50:45,739 --> 00:50:48,460 I said, hey, this is crazy, I didn't sleep that much last night, 549 00:50:48,460 --> 00:50:51,500 but my back feels just like I've got about a little hour sleep, 550 00:50:51,500 --> 00:50:54,539 and they said, well, mine does, too, and then we got to talking about it. 551 00:50:55,340 --> 00:51:00,539 And so, but it was there, and it was very conscious to me that first night. 552 00:51:00,539 --> 00:51:05,019 In fact, I thought probably my back kept me going to sleep as much as the new environment, 553 00:51:06,619 --> 00:51:10,139 rather than the zero G, because I was always conscious of my back bothering me. 554 00:51:10,139 --> 00:51:13,579 Did you ever think about taking an aspirin or anything to do with that? 555 00:51:13,579 --> 00:51:15,900 Did you ever take aspirin at all? 556 00:51:15,900 --> 00:51:17,260 For them? For the eight? 557 00:51:18,699 --> 00:51:24,460 I think until the time we discussed it, I was convinced that the reason I was 558 00:51:24,460 --> 00:51:28,300 feeling bad in the back was just not you're in the age, 559 00:51:28,300 --> 00:51:29,980 we're so damn long, you're not full. 560 00:51:29,980 --> 00:51:31,900 I wondered if you wouldn't breathe back. 561 00:51:31,900 --> 00:51:34,940 I did think that, and then after we started discussing it, 562 00:51:34,940 --> 00:51:38,940 I said, well, that may not be the problem, or if so, that's just part of the problem. 563 00:51:38,940 --> 00:51:42,460 Everybody's got it, and I agree without it, 564 00:51:42,460 --> 00:51:45,019 it has something to do with the way you try to use your feet 565 00:51:45,980 --> 00:51:48,059 to stabilize yourself. 566 00:51:48,059 --> 00:51:51,739 And I found, I believe, although I couldn't see myself, 567 00:51:51,739 --> 00:51:55,019 I believe that when I was relaxing in the space frequency of the G, 568 00:51:55,019 --> 00:51:56,619 I was in a curved position, 569 00:51:57,820 --> 00:52:01,340 and it felt good to throw the shoulders back and straighten out, 570 00:52:01,340 --> 00:52:05,099 or to take the extra gem and get some tension on those back muscles. 571 00:52:05,099 --> 00:52:09,099 You tend to assume it's sort of like a fetal position. 572 00:52:09,099 --> 00:52:13,579 If you just totally relax, your legs will tend to float out, 573 00:52:14,139 --> 00:52:16,940 and come up in a sort of a semi-seeds, 574 00:52:16,940 --> 00:52:19,179 and your hands will tend to float out about my fist, 575 00:52:19,179 --> 00:52:20,780 and your back tends to bend down, 576 00:52:20,780 --> 00:52:23,260 so it tends to assume that kind of a position. 577 00:52:23,260 --> 00:52:26,380 If you just let all your muscles go, so you may have any muscle pulled on. 578 00:52:26,380 --> 00:52:31,179 Oh, I'd tell you that one of the good things for that back too is just exactly that position. 579 00:52:31,179 --> 00:52:34,860 Just get yourself up like this, and I know that first night, 580 00:52:34,860 --> 00:52:37,659 when my back was bothering me, I tried to sleep a good bit. 581 00:52:37,659 --> 00:52:41,420 I'd reach down and grab a hold of my booties, 582 00:52:41,420 --> 00:52:46,059 and I would lay there like that with pulling some pressure on my legs, 583 00:52:46,059 --> 00:52:49,420 and it would really help that smaller your back. 584 00:52:49,420 --> 00:52:52,860 Yeah, I found both things either straightening out, 585 00:52:52,860 --> 00:52:54,780 to put some tension on the back muscles, 586 00:52:54,780 --> 00:52:57,820 or as Stu says, double on out every now and pull the other way. 587 00:52:59,579 --> 00:53:01,820 How about when you got back onto the area now, 588 00:53:01,820 --> 00:53:06,940 and you got into a bed then for the first time back on the 1G environment? 589 00:53:06,940 --> 00:53:10,460 Did you have any feeling, did you have the feeling that you were real heavy, 590 00:53:10,460 --> 00:53:12,460 that you were sinking into the bed? 591 00:53:12,460 --> 00:53:14,619 Did you have that when you were on a table or anything, 592 00:53:14,699 --> 00:53:19,500 on an x-ray table or anything, and that's when none of you experienced that. 593 00:53:20,780 --> 00:53:21,820 How about way to close? 594 00:53:22,860 --> 00:53:24,219 Did you have a way to close? 595 00:53:24,219 --> 00:53:30,309 Pants were too heavy, or they were falling or anything like that when you first got back. 596 00:53:30,309 --> 00:53:34,550 Another thing I can remember about laying down on the bunk was it was a good relief 597 00:53:34,550 --> 00:53:37,030 to be able to lay on your stomach. 598 00:53:37,030 --> 00:53:40,789 You know, I generally, I don't know which way I sleep most, 599 00:53:40,789 --> 00:53:43,190 back or stomach or what, but you know, 600 00:53:43,190 --> 00:53:47,989 you always had to impression no matter in what position you are in the spacecraft, 601 00:53:47,989 --> 00:53:48,789 you're on your back. 602 00:53:50,789 --> 00:53:56,469 So, I remember thinking of that, the first thing I laid down in the bunk was I stressed out 603 00:53:56,469 --> 00:53:59,030 on my back, and I thought, gee, I've been in this way for nine days. 604 00:53:59,030 --> 00:53:59,909 I think I'll turn over. 605 00:53:59,909 --> 00:54:01,909 So I rolled over on my stomach. 606 00:54:01,909 --> 00:54:02,789 It felt pretty good. 607 00:54:05,219 --> 00:54:07,460 Did any of you have any dreams at all? 608 00:54:07,460 --> 00:54:09,219 Did you ever dream and find it on? 609 00:54:09,219 --> 00:54:11,860 I did, but I couldn't for the life of it. 610 00:54:12,579 --> 00:54:14,579 Wow, that doesn't matter. 611 00:54:14,579 --> 00:54:15,780 Yeah, I had dreams. 612 00:54:15,780 --> 00:54:18,019 But you did have dream activity at least, wasn't it? 613 00:54:18,019 --> 00:54:20,940 Yeah, it's everything. 614 00:54:20,940 --> 00:54:22,940 Yeah, I think of that heavy feeling just like that. 615 00:54:23,980 --> 00:54:26,780 The other time I noticed it was after we had landed, 616 00:54:26,780 --> 00:54:28,460 we were still in the spacecraft. 617 00:54:28,460 --> 00:54:32,139 We hadn't strapped in the spacecraft for probably around a little bit, not too much. 618 00:54:32,699 --> 00:54:35,579 Got down the LAB right away in the first couple of steps. 619 00:54:36,460 --> 00:54:40,780 Combination of the rocking spacecraft and being in one gig, 620 00:54:41,659 --> 00:54:45,900 for perhaps three seconds, no more than that, certainly. 621 00:54:45,900 --> 00:54:47,019 That was my experience. 622 00:54:47,019 --> 00:54:49,420 Yeah, the start of doing some deep deep ends right away 623 00:54:49,420 --> 00:54:51,980 for maybe 10 to 12 of those babies. 624 00:54:52,940 --> 00:54:55,579 And I was right back home again and continued to feel that way. 625 00:54:55,579 --> 00:54:59,300 No muscle sores, no. 626 00:54:59,300 --> 00:55:02,579 Did you, this feeling that you experienced when you first went down the LAB 627 00:55:02,579 --> 00:55:04,420 was at, was that all over? 628 00:55:04,420 --> 00:55:06,260 Was that just having us in the legs? 629 00:55:06,260 --> 00:55:08,900 Or did you just feel heavy all over for you? 630 00:55:08,900 --> 00:55:10,099 It's just heavy all over. 631 00:55:10,099 --> 00:55:10,820 Just all over. 632 00:55:11,699 --> 00:55:16,099 How about when you, when you first got some G on reentry, 633 00:55:16,099 --> 00:55:17,460 did you have a sensation? 634 00:55:17,460 --> 00:55:20,260 Do you have a lot more G than you really ran a string? 635 00:55:20,260 --> 00:55:23,860 I don't remember anything over 2G, was that supposed to? 636 00:55:27,780 --> 00:55:29,619 These two guys were, you know that. 637 00:55:31,619 --> 00:55:32,420 You like them? 638 00:55:32,420 --> 00:55:33,780 No, everybody else is done? 639 00:55:36,579 --> 00:55:39,860 No, I think you become very sensitive to 640 00:55:40,659 --> 00:55:46,179 G, like even, even Ollie, John, in the spacecraft, you know, or 641 00:55:49,300 --> 00:55:51,699 well that'd be, guess on time, you'd really feel a G would be 642 00:55:51,699 --> 00:55:55,460 the only, as well as the SPS engine, of course, you know it. 643 00:55:55,460 --> 00:55:58,659 But on reentry, certainly, you know, as you're going through 1G, 644 00:55:59,539 --> 00:56:01,380 it certainly doesn't seem like 1G. 645 00:56:01,380 --> 00:56:03,940 It's, you're sensitive to the G. 646 00:56:04,420 --> 00:56:08,579 So he said, I wasn't quite as busy during that initial 647 00:56:08,579 --> 00:56:10,260 period as they were. 648 00:56:10,260 --> 00:56:13,059 I didn't have cracking tasks to keep me occupied. 649 00:56:14,099 --> 00:56:18,019 I probably felt it more, or it was 5-7 more than they were, 650 00:56:18,019 --> 00:56:19,860 and it felt to me like one hell of a load. 651 00:56:22,820 --> 00:56:26,420 In particular, my one task was to be watching the time. 652 00:56:26,420 --> 00:56:28,820 I couldn't get my arm up to see the watches, 653 00:56:28,820 --> 00:56:30,659 until I had to repeat G let off. 654 00:56:30,739 --> 00:56:34,420 And I'm about 4 or 5G, I could pull my arm up and take a look at it again. 655 00:56:35,619 --> 00:56:37,539 And I had the same sensation that I did. 656 00:56:38,900 --> 00:56:41,940 Right after I got out of the couch, I felt very, very heavy. 657 00:56:42,659 --> 00:56:46,179 And then with just a little bit of motion, it seemed to go away. 658 00:56:46,820 --> 00:56:50,820 And I'd say it kind of described a very sharp rise, 659 00:56:51,619 --> 00:56:56,019 the return normal, the very sharp rise and then an asymptotic to 1G, 660 00:56:56,019 --> 00:56:59,139 because I still stumbled a couple of times getting out of the helicopter. 661 00:56:59,139 --> 00:57:04,900 But I felt fine, except I just didn't have the sureness of footing that I would like to have. 662 00:57:04,900 --> 00:57:08,659 And that didn't last as far as footing, you know, 663 00:57:08,659 --> 00:57:13,300 that's a interesting thing that the Russians had after their 18 day by the answer. 664 00:57:15,059 --> 00:57:17,940 Mobility problems that lasted for days. 665 00:57:17,940 --> 00:57:21,699 And you didn't have, we've never had anything of that. 666 00:57:21,699 --> 00:57:24,099 We've always had some initial footing problem, 667 00:57:24,099 --> 00:57:27,300 you know, just getting used to being back in the 1G environment. 668 00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:30,019 And then you're on a shift, too, which isn't moving around. 669 00:57:31,860 --> 00:57:35,699 Just didn't last for any of you for longer than a few minutes. 670 00:57:35,699 --> 00:57:36,659 Really getting out of town. 671 00:57:36,659 --> 00:57:38,179 You never felt like head at all. 672 00:57:38,179 --> 00:57:40,099 No, neither died like head at all. 673 00:57:40,099 --> 00:57:42,179 How about putting your feet in the right place? 674 00:57:42,179 --> 00:57:43,539 Did you feel like when you were walking, 675 00:57:43,539 --> 00:57:45,539 did you're walking normally on the, 676 00:57:46,420 --> 00:57:48,340 that your steps were normal and everything? 677 00:57:48,340 --> 00:57:50,340 You didn't have to worry about where your feet were. 678 00:57:50,340 --> 00:57:53,539 No, I think that up to the point we got in the MQF, 679 00:57:54,260 --> 00:58:00,900 I felt that that took a little care to make sure my foot was going for it 680 00:58:00,900 --> 00:58:02,019 was supposed to be going. 681 00:58:02,579 --> 00:58:04,579 But it wasn't out of the ordinary, 682 00:58:05,860 --> 00:58:07,699 you know, really severe anything. 683 00:58:07,699 --> 00:58:07,860 No. 684 00:58:07,860 --> 00:58:11,139 It seemed to be improving very rapidly from a very heavy state 685 00:58:11,139 --> 00:58:14,019 for the first 30 to 45 seconds after I got out of the couch 686 00:58:14,739 --> 00:58:17,780 to within an hour or so after I was in the MQF, 687 00:58:17,780 --> 00:58:19,059 the footing was very short. 688 00:58:19,780 --> 00:58:24,099 But I do remember stumbling once going to the MQF from the helicopter 689 00:58:25,380 --> 00:58:27,139 and I didn't see anything stumbling over. 690 00:58:27,139 --> 00:58:28,420 It just, that stumbling. 691 00:58:29,380 --> 00:58:31,380 You know, I think how you do that right now though, 692 00:58:31,380 --> 00:58:34,340 if you're going to walk out of that door with a television camera 693 00:58:34,340 --> 00:58:36,900 and you're going to walk up to the front steps, 694 00:58:36,900 --> 00:58:38,739 you'd be more conscious of your footing. 695 00:58:38,739 --> 00:58:40,980 You'd be more conscious of your footing, 696 00:58:40,980 --> 00:58:42,820 whether or not you'd been in zero G or not. 697 00:58:42,820 --> 00:58:44,420 Sure, if you're carrying a load, 698 00:58:44,420 --> 00:58:46,019 you're going to look very carefully. 699 00:58:46,019 --> 00:58:48,099 Where are you saying you want to get knocked down? 700 00:58:48,179 --> 00:58:50,820 Yeah, and you in particular know that, you know, 701 00:58:50,820 --> 00:58:52,179 you've just come back from a flight 702 00:58:52,179 --> 00:58:54,900 and people are going to be watching how you're walking 703 00:58:54,900 --> 00:58:56,179 and all of this stuff. 704 00:58:56,179 --> 00:58:57,539 So, you know, it's in your mind, 705 00:58:57,539 --> 00:59:00,340 and you know, you've got to walk this 30 feet to the MQF. 706 00:59:00,340 --> 00:59:03,860 So just naturally, you're more conscious of where you're going to put you. 707 00:59:03,860 --> 00:59:07,300 Well, I may have psyched myself in the stumbling for that reason, 708 00:59:07,300 --> 00:59:08,500 but nevertheless I did stumble. 709 00:59:10,340 --> 00:59:13,619 That's better than the fact that I was conscious of the fact 710 00:59:13,619 --> 00:59:14,820 that TV cameras were on. 711 00:59:15,699 --> 00:59:22,739 Did you notice any distortion of your facial features at all? 712 00:59:22,739 --> 00:59:27,219 Did you, when you look at the TV, the Infight TV, 713 00:59:27,219 --> 00:59:30,019 as we watched you, you know, when inside of a spacecraft, 714 00:59:31,539 --> 00:59:35,699 you get the impression that your faces are not like they are now, 715 00:59:35,699 --> 00:59:40,659 that they're much rounder, that that's a thing you see on the TV. 716 00:59:40,659 --> 00:59:41,460 Is that true? 717 00:59:41,460 --> 00:59:44,340 Is that, did you feel that when you were looking at each other? 718 00:59:45,059 --> 00:59:49,219 I observed that when I saw a picture of us taking from that TV, 719 00:59:49,219 --> 00:59:51,860 and I didn't think anything about it until you mentioned it. 720 00:59:51,860 --> 00:59:53,780 It looks quite around. 721 00:59:53,780 --> 00:59:57,380 You look much different than you do now. 722 00:59:57,380 --> 00:59:59,300 It takes it very rounded, 723 00:59:59,300 --> 01:00:01,940 but you weren't aware of that looking at each other. 724 01:00:03,940 --> 01:00:07,539 Al Vain has made a comment of that in the 12 report 725 01:00:07,539 --> 01:00:09,300 that actually got indoor, but he looked around 726 01:00:09,300 --> 01:00:11,860 and everybody looked 20 pounds heavier, 727 01:00:11,860 --> 01:00:12,820 and I remember that. 728 01:00:15,300 --> 01:00:19,059 I looked at these guys, and they looked just as bad then as they did now. 729 01:00:19,059 --> 01:00:24,019 I remember that comment from Al Vain's report, 730 01:00:24,019 --> 01:00:25,699 and I really didn't notice it. 731 01:00:25,699 --> 01:00:27,380 They were, the 12 crew, I guess, 732 01:00:27,380 --> 01:00:29,780 been the one that was the most impressed with that of anybody, 733 01:00:29,780 --> 01:00:33,300 and they know that they felt even that they had redness of the face 734 01:00:33,300 --> 01:00:37,059 for several hours after they first achieved orbit. 735 01:00:37,059 --> 01:00:41,849 Well, it's a general feeling of fullness, I guess. 736 01:00:41,849 --> 01:00:45,369 But I mean, just to look at a person and see his face puffed up, 737 01:00:45,690 --> 01:00:47,849 I didn't notice that at all. 738 01:00:47,849 --> 01:00:49,929 Maybe it was just life about observation. 739 01:00:49,929 --> 01:00:51,690 But, yeah. 740 01:00:51,690 --> 01:00:53,289 I remember for the first five hours, 741 01:00:53,289 --> 01:00:55,369 when we were too busy doing other things. 742 01:00:55,369 --> 01:00:56,329 That's very good. 743 01:00:56,329 --> 01:01:01,610 Did you have any sensation that in the first 24 hours in flight 744 01:01:01,610 --> 01:01:04,889 that you urinated more than you normally would, 745 01:01:04,889 --> 01:01:06,570 then you did the rest of the flight time? 746 01:01:09,369 --> 01:01:11,289 That's a hard thing to remember, 747 01:01:11,289 --> 01:01:14,329 but do you have any idea that you didn't know? 748 01:01:14,329 --> 01:01:16,010 When I was at first without at all, 749 01:01:16,010 --> 01:01:18,010 I never used my U-C-T-A. 750 01:01:18,889 --> 01:01:20,730 That first one was a walker, I know that. 751 01:01:23,050 --> 01:01:25,690 Of course, you get a lot of excitement to make it a walker anyway, 752 01:01:25,690 --> 01:01:26,730 so it's hard. 753 01:01:26,730 --> 01:01:29,940 Now, no real... 754 01:01:29,940 --> 01:01:33,139 No real one way or the other on that, is it? 755 01:01:33,139 --> 01:01:34,340 Okay. 756 01:01:35,940 --> 01:01:40,099 Was the, can you come in on the work that you did, 757 01:01:40,099 --> 01:01:44,500 EVA out on the lunar surface as far as what you, 758 01:01:44,500 --> 01:01:47,460 you felt, based on versus your ground training. 759 01:01:47,460 --> 01:01:50,739 You think it was harder, easier, about the same. 760 01:01:50,739 --> 01:01:53,300 And secondly, as a second question to that, 761 01:01:53,300 --> 01:01:58,179 did either of you feel really physically tired 762 01:01:58,179 --> 01:02:00,579 to the point that you knew that you were really tired 763 01:02:00,579 --> 01:02:01,940 during the EVA? 764 01:02:01,940 --> 01:02:06,820 Is even going out and coming. 765 01:02:06,820 --> 01:02:09,619 I felt, of course, it was an order of begging 766 01:02:09,619 --> 01:02:11,860 through the easier than one thing training. 767 01:02:11,860 --> 01:02:14,659 Just no comparison at all as we expected it to be. 768 01:02:15,460 --> 01:02:22,179 And as far as being tired, I think I had already made up my mind 769 01:02:22,900 --> 01:02:27,699 that I did not want to sweat in on the move 770 01:02:27,699 --> 01:02:30,340 that I was going to keep the water up, 771 01:02:30,340 --> 01:02:32,179 and I was going to keep resting enough 772 01:02:32,179 --> 01:02:36,500 so that I didn't sweat for consumables and for fatigue purposes. 773 01:02:37,139 --> 01:02:39,139 So I never really felt tired. 774 01:02:39,139 --> 01:02:42,659 I did feel occasionally that I was approaching the point 775 01:02:42,659 --> 01:02:44,900 where I'd have to have more cooling or take a break. 776 01:02:45,860 --> 01:02:47,619 But it wasn't because of a tired feeling. 777 01:02:47,619 --> 01:02:51,300 It was the desire to program and play in consumables 778 01:02:51,300 --> 01:02:52,340 the way we wanted to. 779 01:02:52,340 --> 01:02:53,860 And not behind them. 780 01:02:53,860 --> 01:02:56,820 So I felt in my mind that I was stopping 781 01:02:56,820 --> 01:03:00,500 sure to the point of fatigue as a direct plan 782 01:03:01,539 --> 01:03:03,139 of not wanting to use up consumables. 783 01:03:03,940 --> 01:03:04,739 How am I EVA? 784 01:03:05,780 --> 01:03:07,940 Well, it's kind of hard to quite briefly 785 01:03:07,940 --> 01:03:09,539 like stuff with flexing. 786 01:03:09,539 --> 01:03:13,780 First of all, it's not using the LCG and the brake flexing. 787 01:03:13,780 --> 01:03:15,460 You're lifting one essentially one G. 788 01:03:16,420 --> 01:03:16,820 Yeah. 789 01:03:16,820 --> 01:03:18,500 These are the equipment around some of them. 790 01:03:19,460 --> 01:03:21,539 So it's pretty hard to get quite the two of them on 791 01:03:22,340 --> 01:03:24,099 as to whether it was harder or easier 792 01:03:24,099 --> 01:03:27,300 and even with like one of the standpoints of total workup. 793 01:03:29,539 --> 01:03:32,579 But certainly, the standpoint of ease and mobility 794 01:03:32,579 --> 01:03:34,900 so on as Ed says, it's a lot easier to get around 795 01:03:34,900 --> 01:03:37,059 and I think you travel off faster or easier 796 01:03:37,460 --> 01:03:39,860 on the lowly surface because the general comment is far off. 797 01:03:41,300 --> 01:03:44,179 EVA 1, I did not feel uncomfortable at any time at all. 798 01:03:45,460 --> 01:03:50,179 EVA 2, I think the fact that I was aware of the workload 799 01:03:50,179 --> 01:03:53,699 was manifested primarily in the respiration rate 800 01:03:53,699 --> 01:03:54,900 as opposed to EVLs. 801 01:03:55,539 --> 01:04:02,019 I didn't feel as though the body heat was going up too much. 802 01:04:02,019 --> 01:04:03,699 The deep body was going up too much. 803 01:04:03,699 --> 01:04:06,260 I think this is primarily because of the circulating fluid. 804 01:04:07,059 --> 01:04:12,980 The LCG and I was not aware of any preface from the sweating 805 01:04:13,780 --> 01:04:16,500 just a little thing to change it 806 01:04:17,380 --> 01:04:19,539 of sweating, of blushing, what are you going to call it. 807 01:04:19,539 --> 01:04:21,940 It's when I went to the medium floor on the water. 808 01:04:22,980 --> 01:04:24,980 So I think in question, I really were 809 01:04:24,980 --> 01:04:27,300 if I increase in heart rate, the energy 810 01:04:27,300 --> 01:04:29,940 specifically stopped the measure somehow. 811 01:04:30,500 --> 01:04:33,460 So I think to me the thing was most obvious about 812 01:04:34,420 --> 01:04:37,139 the increased workload was the respiration rate. 813 01:04:37,940 --> 01:04:40,099 And the times I think we suggested to come in 814 01:04:40,099 --> 01:04:45,340 to steepest grade of the period that we stopped and take a rest. 815 01:04:45,340 --> 01:04:46,699 And if you also suggest that. 816 01:04:46,699 --> 01:04:47,340 Right. 817 01:04:47,340 --> 01:04:53,179 But the standpoint of being tied to the degree 818 01:04:53,179 --> 01:04:56,380 where we didn't want to press on after short rest of the period 819 01:04:56,380 --> 01:05:00,219 and know how to feel at any time until after the two days 820 01:05:00,219 --> 01:05:02,619 was over and we were back in the command 821 01:05:02,619 --> 01:05:07,579 and it really felt like I was behind the helicopter 822 01:05:07,579 --> 01:05:09,579 as far as the total workload. 823 01:05:11,530 --> 01:05:14,250 Well, we'll try and give you some firm feeling 824 01:05:14,250 --> 01:05:18,409 for what happened with your EVAs when we do this later. 825 01:05:18,409 --> 01:05:20,730 You know, we can show you actually what you know, 826 01:05:20,730 --> 01:05:22,889 you did have some times where you both got heart rates 827 01:05:22,889 --> 01:05:27,369 that were up to 150 or you, and this is why we felt 828 01:05:27,369 --> 01:05:29,929 and your respiratory rates were very audible 829 01:05:29,929 --> 01:05:33,449 and we didn't have a respiration trace on you at that time as you know. 830 01:05:33,530 --> 01:05:37,130 But you did have very audible respiratory rates 831 01:05:37,130 --> 01:05:40,010 and it was obviously you were increasing those. 832 01:05:40,010 --> 01:05:44,570 And now I think you begin to store. 833 01:05:44,570 --> 01:05:48,969 I think you, the thing is you kept yours on men for a long time 834 01:05:48,969 --> 01:05:53,050 and then when you did turn up to medium flow 835 01:05:53,050 --> 01:05:55,050 you just left it there a short period of time 836 01:05:55,050 --> 01:05:57,929 and it didn't, it didn't kick your rate down as much 837 01:05:57,929 --> 01:06:00,889 because you still were maintaining some of that heat in there now. 838 01:06:00,889 --> 01:06:02,650 It wasn't enough to make you sweat apparently. 839 01:06:02,730 --> 01:06:05,929 And then when you started doing that turning it on a little bit longer 840 01:06:05,929 --> 01:06:09,050 each time you just, it just settled right back down 841 01:06:09,050 --> 01:06:10,570 you didn't have any trouble with it at all. 842 01:06:10,570 --> 01:06:12,570 But both of you came down very well. 843 01:06:12,570 --> 01:06:14,969 When you would rest your rates dropped down 844 01:06:14,969 --> 01:06:16,809 and that's contrary to what happened on 12 845 01:06:16,809 --> 01:06:18,889 where they didn't drop down when they rested 846 01:06:18,889 --> 01:06:20,570 and yours, yours did very well. 847 01:06:21,289 --> 01:06:23,610 They just dropped, they come right on down 848 01:06:23,610 --> 01:06:25,769 as soon as you stopped doing that activity. 849 01:06:26,570 --> 01:06:27,530 So that's it. 850 01:06:28,570 --> 01:06:30,250 You have a feeling that you could have, but 851 01:06:31,210 --> 01:06:33,289 you have a feeling any recommendation 852 01:06:33,289 --> 01:06:35,050 about extending EVAs now. 853 01:06:35,050 --> 01:06:37,130 I mean, do you feel it would be possible 854 01:06:37,130 --> 01:06:39,130 with proper, proper consumables? 855 01:06:39,130 --> 01:06:41,210 Of course that, that you could, 856 01:06:41,210 --> 01:06:43,449 that it's physically possible to do that. 857 01:06:44,090 --> 01:06:45,050 I sure do. 858 01:06:45,050 --> 01:06:48,730 And the thing that bothered me was worrying about consumables. 859 01:06:48,730 --> 01:06:53,050 I'm knowing that we were getting a higher metabolic load, 860 01:06:53,050 --> 01:06:55,369 the higher heart rate, more oxygen consumption, 861 01:06:55,369 --> 01:06:57,210 going out to home crater 862 01:06:57,210 --> 01:06:59,929 and that I was spending more time on 863 01:07:00,010 --> 01:07:02,329 between minimum and intermediate cooling 864 01:07:03,610 --> 01:07:05,530 because we were rushing deliberately, 865 01:07:05,530 --> 01:07:06,969 rushing to kind of make up time. 866 01:07:07,530 --> 01:07:09,289 I started worrying about consumables 867 01:07:09,849 --> 01:07:12,730 and especially in the water in the oxygen. 868 01:07:12,730 --> 01:07:16,090 And I felt I was a limiting factor. 869 01:07:16,090 --> 01:07:18,090 I didn't feel that I was a limiting factor. 870 01:07:19,050 --> 01:07:21,690 Just the oxygen in the water I was consuming 871 01:07:21,690 --> 01:07:22,650 were bothering me. 872 01:07:23,289 --> 01:07:25,130 Well, we tried to give you the word that, 873 01:07:25,130 --> 01:07:26,489 you know, that you were pretty fat, 874 01:07:26,489 --> 01:07:27,769 consumables really at the time. 875 01:07:27,769 --> 01:07:29,690 We thought you were trying to save consumables 876 01:07:29,849 --> 01:07:31,610 but we did, we weren't. 877 01:07:31,610 --> 01:07:34,329 Yeah, and it would understandably so. 878 01:07:34,329 --> 01:07:37,050 And so we wanted you to know that you had enough 879 01:07:37,050 --> 01:07:38,730 and you could go to medium flow 880 01:07:38,730 --> 01:07:40,489 without really getting yourself in a hole 881 01:07:40,489 --> 01:07:41,849 with the thing you wouldn't even know. 882 01:07:41,849 --> 01:07:43,050 And after you did that, 883 01:07:43,050 --> 01:07:44,730 I spent considerably more time on 884 01:07:45,769 --> 01:07:48,010 between minimum and intermediate cooling. 885 01:07:48,010 --> 01:07:49,849 Yeah, let's go it down. 886 01:07:49,849 --> 01:07:51,449 Yeah, you both did. 887 01:07:51,449 --> 01:07:52,250 It's different. 888 01:07:52,250 --> 01:07:54,489 I don't think that the comment is 889 01:07:54,730 --> 01:07:57,449 just like the comment about how the workbook 890 01:07:57,449 --> 01:08:00,650 was expecting to the two-day period. 891 01:08:00,650 --> 01:08:03,929 I wouldn't want to see a crew ever plan 892 01:08:03,929 --> 01:08:05,929 to do any more than we did most of them. 893 01:08:05,929 --> 01:08:09,130 For us, I think that's a much heavier workbook 894 01:08:09,130 --> 01:08:10,329 than anybody ought to do. 895 01:08:10,329 --> 01:08:11,769 And certainly, if you're going to go off 896 01:08:11,769 --> 01:08:12,969 from along the crazy VBA, 897 01:08:12,969 --> 01:08:14,969 you've got to allow along the crazy rest. 898 01:08:14,969 --> 01:08:18,090 And make sure somehow that they get the rest. 899 01:08:18,090 --> 01:08:19,449 Yeah, just allowing the time 900 01:08:19,449 --> 01:08:21,289 wasn't necessarily a sure rest. 901 01:08:21,289 --> 01:08:22,250 Well, tell me. 902 01:08:22,250 --> 01:08:24,729 If you had, you know, in the NLM, 903 01:08:24,729 --> 01:08:27,289 I gather one of the things that you think would help, 904 01:08:27,289 --> 01:08:28,810 of course, would be getting out of suit. 905 01:08:28,810 --> 01:08:29,930 That certainly would help. 906 01:08:29,930 --> 01:08:31,529 If you could get out of suit in the LEM, 907 01:08:31,529 --> 01:08:33,210 no question about that. 908 01:08:33,210 --> 01:08:35,930 If you had something for sleep, would you take it? 909 01:08:35,930 --> 01:08:37,689 Would you guys have taken the LEM 910 01:08:37,689 --> 01:08:40,090 if you had some for sleep in things? 911 01:08:40,090 --> 01:08:42,489 I don't think so, because I don't think I don't 912 01:08:42,489 --> 01:08:43,210 want to advise you. 913 01:08:43,210 --> 01:08:46,010 I don't take that kind of medication here in the ground. 914 01:08:46,010 --> 01:08:47,369 It's an individual thing, 915 01:08:47,369 --> 01:08:50,409 and quite obviously, you know, it just depends on you. 916 01:08:50,409 --> 01:08:52,170 If you had any things that's possibly 917 01:08:52,170 --> 01:08:53,930 in space, you can't really run environments 918 01:08:53,930 --> 01:08:55,529 probably in a way, everybody would run. 919 01:08:55,529 --> 01:08:57,529 So if you have people who do that in the ground, 920 01:08:57,529 --> 01:08:59,770 you can help them. 921 01:08:59,770 --> 01:09:02,250 I prefer to see us using more natural means 922 01:09:02,250 --> 01:09:04,409 of getting the sleep, as opposed to an artificial. 923 01:09:04,409 --> 01:09:06,569 You'd like to ask something to sleep off, please. 924 01:09:06,569 --> 01:09:08,170 Yeah. 925 01:09:08,170 --> 01:09:09,289 Back to that. 926 01:09:09,289 --> 01:09:10,489 I think the suit's a big thing, 927 01:09:10,489 --> 01:09:11,689 as far as I was concerned. 928 01:09:11,689 --> 01:09:12,489 Yeah. 929 01:09:12,489 --> 01:09:13,369 And keep on coming up. 930 01:09:13,369 --> 01:09:15,050 You could roll around. 931 01:09:15,050 --> 01:09:17,689 You know, even you could roll around in the hammock 932 01:09:17,689 --> 01:09:20,250 and then the hammock ring would get back to the neck. 933 01:09:20,250 --> 01:09:21,050 Yeah. 934 01:09:21,050 --> 01:09:22,010 It's comfortable. 935 01:09:22,010 --> 01:09:25,449 There was one thing to talk about the fatigue. 936 01:09:25,449 --> 01:09:28,810 The only thing that I felt fatigue, any muscles I felt, 937 01:09:28,810 --> 01:09:31,449 the tape was a darn hand muscle on the right hand, 938 01:09:31,449 --> 01:09:32,970 because of the sit-out of that blood. 939 01:09:32,970 --> 01:09:34,250 Because you were fighting that blood? 940 01:09:34,250 --> 01:09:35,210 Yeah. 941 01:09:35,210 --> 01:09:39,130 And working the cord tubes, getting unscrewing the cord tubes, 942 01:09:39,130 --> 01:09:41,529 what if I couldn't get by myself, 943 01:09:41,529 --> 01:09:43,689 getting the caps off of it. 944 01:09:43,689 --> 01:09:46,649 That was very fatiging, and at R&D about it. 945 01:09:46,649 --> 01:09:48,569 How about when you're carrying a barbell out there, 946 01:09:48,569 --> 01:09:49,449 you're getting this thing. 947 01:09:49,449 --> 01:09:50,569 You said you had to do it well. 948 01:09:50,569 --> 01:09:51,609 Well, that was tiring. 949 01:09:51,609 --> 01:09:53,130 It just because it's so cumbersome 950 01:09:53,130 --> 01:09:54,569 that it was flopping all around. 951 01:09:54,569 --> 01:09:57,369 But I eventually put it across my arms like that, 952 01:09:57,369 --> 01:10:00,890 and just aside from the workload of carrying it out, 953 01:10:00,890 --> 01:10:02,010 there's no problem. 954 01:10:02,010 --> 01:10:02,970 It was heavy. 955 01:10:02,970 --> 01:10:05,369 Was the weight different, seemed different, 956 01:10:05,369 --> 01:10:07,050 because you commented at the time, 957 01:10:07,050 --> 01:10:09,689 and it looked like you were having trouble 958 01:10:09,689 --> 01:10:10,890 getting out there with, I think, 959 01:10:10,890 --> 01:10:12,170 was it the weight of it? 960 01:10:12,170 --> 01:10:14,409 Or was it just the fact that it was vibrating? 961 01:10:14,409 --> 01:10:15,689 And it was sort of like the fatigue of it. 962 01:10:15,689 --> 01:10:18,729 It was mostly the vibration of it, just the flopping of it. 963 01:10:18,729 --> 01:10:19,529 Flopping of it. 964 01:10:19,529 --> 01:10:24,649 However, I think that it was heavier than I expected 965 01:10:24,649 --> 01:10:27,130 from the 1-6G mockup. 966 01:10:27,130 --> 01:10:31,850 But we had never carried it that far in training, 967 01:10:31,850 --> 01:10:33,609 and I think we made that recommendation. 968 01:10:33,609 --> 01:10:37,890 At least once the guys on a carry it the whole way. 969 01:10:37,890 --> 01:10:40,569 But it was primarily the flopping of those weights 970 01:10:40,569 --> 01:10:45,140 on the end that were giving trouble. 971 01:10:45,140 --> 01:10:49,819 Let's get the idea that, on this bowel movement thing, 972 01:10:49,819 --> 01:10:53,140 the preps and so forth, you had a good comment in there 973 01:10:53,140 --> 01:10:55,140 that that went fairly well. 974 01:10:55,140 --> 01:10:56,300 You all did the same thing. 975 01:10:56,300 --> 01:10:59,060 We knew pre-flight anyway. 976 01:10:59,060 --> 01:11:00,420 How did it work out, though? 977 01:11:00,420 --> 01:11:04,300 I think you remember, can you just tell us each one how you went? 978 01:11:04,300 --> 01:11:05,659 I get rid of it, but almost at the end, 979 01:11:05,659 --> 01:11:09,020 without having one, according to a comment. 980 01:11:09,020 --> 01:11:10,779 Where did you go? 981 01:11:10,779 --> 01:11:11,939 Where did you do it? 982 01:11:12,060 --> 01:11:13,060 Yeah. 983 01:11:16,579 --> 01:11:18,619 I went to the morning of the 8th day. 984 01:11:18,619 --> 01:11:22,420 To the morning of the 8th day, it was the first one. 985 01:11:22,420 --> 01:11:25,819 And that's the only one I assume. 986 01:11:25,819 --> 01:11:27,100 I didn't plan it that way. 987 01:11:27,100 --> 01:11:31,340 What I wanted to do was to have one bowel movement 988 01:11:31,340 --> 01:11:33,659 before we went to the surface. 989 01:11:33,659 --> 01:11:37,180 So that would take care of that period of time. 990 01:11:37,260 --> 01:11:43,979 And I went around with a bag on my family for about 12 hours. 991 01:11:43,979 --> 01:11:46,460 Hopefully I can do something and never do it. 992 01:11:46,460 --> 01:11:50,140 And at one point, I even wished that we had a lecture 993 01:11:50,140 --> 01:11:54,100 and it would be important to help me do that. 994 01:11:54,100 --> 01:11:55,899 I'm not sure if that's a good idea or not, 995 01:11:55,899 --> 01:11:58,300 but it sure seemed like it at the time. 996 01:11:58,300 --> 01:12:03,779 And I was really concerned that I need 997 01:12:03,779 --> 01:12:06,260 to have a bowel movement while we're on the surface. 998 01:12:06,260 --> 01:12:10,100 And I got through that period, figured, well, 999 01:12:10,100 --> 01:12:11,859 we got it made. 1000 01:12:11,859 --> 01:12:14,420 Be good to get back to the main module and use them. 1001 01:12:14,420 --> 01:12:16,420 Bag, and I still couldn't. 1002 01:12:16,420 --> 01:12:18,380 It was the late day. 1003 01:12:18,380 --> 01:12:19,739 And that was the one for it. 1004 01:12:19,739 --> 01:12:22,060 Did you ever get any clamps or anything with them? 1005 01:12:22,060 --> 01:12:23,260 No, I never had any. 1006 01:12:23,260 --> 01:12:26,020 You got that service at all, and it's fine. 1007 01:12:26,020 --> 01:12:26,899 I wasn't uncomfortable. 1008 01:12:26,899 --> 01:12:29,899 I didn't even have a feeling of fullness. 1009 01:12:29,899 --> 01:12:30,739 How about you, Al? 1010 01:12:30,739 --> 01:12:33,939 How'd your cycle go? 1011 01:12:33,939 --> 01:12:50,649 I had one and a half bags. 1012 01:12:50,649 --> 01:12:53,569 And no problem, Mr. Mead, there were normal consistency 1013 01:12:53,569 --> 01:12:55,010 in sort of this part. 1014 01:12:55,010 --> 01:12:56,449 That's really uncivilized. 1015 01:12:56,449 --> 01:12:58,449 That I agree with you. 1016 01:12:58,449 --> 01:13:03,289 We've got to fight better, but the whole hygiene thing 1017 01:13:03,289 --> 01:13:06,729 and this thing is so archaic and unbelievable. 1018 01:13:06,729 --> 01:13:09,130 And we just got to do better in that if we're 1019 01:13:09,130 --> 01:13:10,329 going to keep people in space. 1020 01:13:10,329 --> 01:13:12,489 Actually, I didn't feel civilized, you know? 1021 01:13:12,489 --> 01:13:14,930 Yeah, I really felt uncivilized during that whole process. 1022 01:13:14,930 --> 01:13:17,130 The whole mess, yeah, as a bee. 1023 01:13:17,130 --> 01:13:19,569 And the ability to clean up afterwards 1024 01:13:19,569 --> 01:13:22,529 and affect as the ability to maintain personal hygiene 1025 01:13:22,529 --> 01:13:27,010 throughout the flight is only what we need better. 1026 01:13:27,010 --> 01:13:28,170 Stu, how about you? 1027 01:13:28,170 --> 01:13:31,010 I went to 80 hours, was the first one. 1028 01:13:31,010 --> 01:13:32,609 I remember distinctly because I said, 1029 01:13:32,609 --> 01:13:34,930 between 80 and 81 hours approaching L.O.I. 1030 01:13:34,930 --> 01:13:36,449 while I'm going to do it. 1031 01:13:36,449 --> 01:13:40,449 And which pleasantly surprised me, too, 1032 01:13:40,449 --> 01:13:44,289 we're on the gory subject because pre-flight 1033 01:13:44,289 --> 01:13:47,409 I anticipated that I might have to use the bag 1034 01:13:47,409 --> 01:13:51,130 more than that because in my normal course of events, 1035 01:13:51,130 --> 01:13:56,210 it's very common for me to hit the head at least twice a day. 1036 01:13:56,210 --> 01:14:01,170 And so I was pleasantly surprised that I got to 80 hours. 1037 01:14:01,170 --> 01:14:05,850 And then I had one other one and it was after TDI. 1038 01:14:05,850 --> 01:14:10,609 I guess the next day after TDI and I don't remember 1039 01:14:10,609 --> 01:14:14,939 what time frame it was. 1040 01:14:14,979 --> 01:14:15,779 Yeah, I guess it was. 1041 01:14:15,779 --> 01:14:18,220 It was the day after TDI. 1042 01:14:18,220 --> 01:14:23,970 And, okay, I don't remember the GT right now. 1043 01:14:23,970 --> 01:14:25,970 I can't even associate with anything 1044 01:14:25,970 --> 01:14:27,289 except these guys and their guests, 1045 01:14:27,289 --> 01:14:29,810 I don't know what else is going on at that time. 1046 01:14:29,810 --> 01:14:31,810 Yeah, these guys. 1047 01:14:34,930 --> 01:14:35,770 Okay. 1048 01:14:39,319 --> 01:14:41,640 When did you first start to use the nose drugs? 1049 01:14:41,640 --> 01:14:43,600 How far into that? 1050 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,439 Do you remember what date? 1051 01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:46,560 Third day with it? 1052 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,359 Three, isn't it? 1053 01:14:48,359 --> 01:14:49,199 Third day. 1054 01:14:49,199 --> 01:14:52,039 And, do you feel that that was a, 1055 01:14:52,039 --> 01:14:54,800 I'm a little bit confused about your description, 1056 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:56,960 you're describing this fullness. 1057 01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:58,960 And still, do you feel that this was a thing 1058 01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:02,119 that was associated with this fullness 1059 01:15:02,119 --> 01:15:04,279 that was due to the weightlessness 1060 01:15:04,279 --> 01:15:06,800 or do you think it was an oxygen effect? 1061 01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:09,399 Just due to the drying, so forth. 1062 01:15:09,399 --> 01:15:10,920 I never felt that dry. 1063 01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:15,720 And at the time, I thought it could have been either or both. 1064 01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:18,840 And so, I just treated it simply mathematically 1065 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,720 with a couple of, about one drop in each nostril 1066 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,600 that was completely effective for the next 10, 12 hours. 1067 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:25,680 Well, you could hear it. 1068 01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:26,760 This is a fairly routine. 1069 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:28,239 You hear this in the guy's voices, 1070 01:15:28,239 --> 01:15:29,359 and you know what they're doing. 1071 01:15:29,359 --> 01:15:32,119 You know, you hear this full feeling that they have. 1072 01:15:32,119 --> 01:15:34,560 Sometimes they get a little bit of horse 1073 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,000 sensation with it too. 1074 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:38,840 And it comes and goes in that. 1075 01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:40,920 You describe it, I thought very well yesterday. 1076 01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:43,159 Sometimes in the mornings it would be, 1077 01:15:43,159 --> 01:15:45,039 you wake up and be better in the morning. 1078 01:15:46,199 --> 01:15:47,039 You know what, Jack? 1079 01:15:47,039 --> 01:15:47,880 I don't know. 1080 01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:49,760 This is kind of a... 1081 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:57,359 You've been built in maybe the whole head sensation 1082 01:15:57,359 --> 01:16:00,000 related to a re-testing of the old curry of asthma system 1083 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:02,600 and therefore, if you could relax a little bit 1084 01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:04,000 in the evening, you know, and help it. 1085 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:05,239 This is my theory. 1086 01:16:05,239 --> 01:16:06,079 Exactly. 1087 01:16:06,079 --> 01:16:08,479 We kind of wished it that way. 1088 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,560 It's just a general feeling. 1089 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:13,319 Nothing to substantiate it, but the car is in it. 1090 01:16:13,319 --> 01:16:15,079 And I think as far as the nostrops are concerned, 1091 01:16:15,079 --> 01:16:16,560 it helped with the mucus, 1092 01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:18,680 but it didn't help the overall fullness. 1093 01:16:20,239 --> 01:16:21,880 Did they work all right? 1094 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:23,680 I know we got a special one, Stu. 1095 01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:25,520 But did they work all right in a minute? 1096 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:26,359 Did the... 1097 01:16:26,359 --> 01:16:28,520 Just like I'm sure of that, but what I said is clear out there. 1098 01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:33,140 It made it clear out there. 1099 01:16:33,140 --> 01:16:34,619 Yeah. 1100 01:16:34,619 --> 01:16:36,180 And Stu, what about now? 1101 01:16:36,180 --> 01:16:38,579 Did you just give yourself too big a slug? 1102 01:16:38,579 --> 01:16:39,859 Does that what happened to it or...? 1103 01:16:39,859 --> 01:16:41,539 I think I probably did, Chuck. 1104 01:16:41,539 --> 01:16:42,699 I'm sure that's what happened. 1105 01:16:42,699 --> 01:16:45,819 You know, I said, well, I hadn't used any up to land, 1106 01:16:45,819 --> 01:16:49,060 but on entry, you know, I think I'll just use 1107 01:16:49,060 --> 01:16:50,220 some of these beauties. 1108 01:16:50,220 --> 01:16:54,300 And I think I hit, gave me two big of dose 1109 01:16:54,300 --> 01:16:56,699 in the right nostril here, because who am I? 1110 01:16:56,699 --> 01:16:58,659 I started watering, and I could feel it 1111 01:16:58,659 --> 01:17:00,619 with my sonuses and everything else. 1112 01:17:00,619 --> 01:17:04,819 And then, but it lasted maybe an hour. 1113 01:17:04,819 --> 01:17:07,819 And by the time, I guess I probably did that 1114 01:17:07,819 --> 01:17:09,619 a couple of three hours prior to entry. 1115 01:17:09,619 --> 01:17:13,659 And an hour later, you know, I think most of the symptoms 1116 01:17:13,659 --> 01:17:15,779 have gone away, that are you getting closer to entry 1117 01:17:15,779 --> 01:17:17,539 and you stop worrying about it. 1118 01:17:17,539 --> 01:17:21,100 But, yeah, I did, I think I overdid it. 1119 01:17:21,100 --> 01:17:27,899 And I just, you know, I hardly ever take any nose drop 1120 01:17:27,899 --> 01:17:30,260 training, and maybe I just get too much in there. 1121 01:17:30,260 --> 01:17:32,020 And it's probably pretty powerful stuff. 1122 01:17:32,020 --> 01:17:32,779 It is powerful. 1123 01:17:32,779 --> 01:17:36,260 I know if I, in 1G or here, if I take more than a couple 1124 01:17:36,260 --> 01:17:39,659 of drops of Acrid, if I use drops instead of spray, 1125 01:17:39,659 --> 01:17:40,939 I get the same effect. 1126 01:17:40,939 --> 01:17:42,140 Yeah, it's not. 1127 01:17:42,140 --> 01:17:44,340 It's burning in a real dry situation. 1128 01:17:44,340 --> 01:17:46,979 And it wasn't a lack of breathing or not 1129 01:17:46,979 --> 01:17:48,979 trying it before flying or anything like that. 1130 01:17:48,979 --> 01:17:51,979 I think I was just a little overzealous in the application. 1131 01:17:51,979 --> 01:17:54,020 Well, you know, it drops a good, give it four. 1132 01:17:54,020 --> 01:17:56,060 Yeah, what the hell? 1133 01:17:56,060 --> 01:17:56,939 Did you feel it? 1134 01:17:56,939 --> 01:17:59,699 You got any, you get an attack of cardio with that? 1135 01:17:59,699 --> 01:18:02,500 You get a real increase in R-Rate with that? 1136 01:18:02,500 --> 01:18:03,899 Oh, I haven't had the foggest idea. 1137 01:18:03,899 --> 01:18:05,699 You didn't feel it anymore. 1138 01:18:05,699 --> 01:18:06,899 Yeah. 1139 01:18:06,899 --> 01:18:10,460 Yeah, I've had to, you all had to, you all had to, 1140 01:18:10,460 --> 01:18:11,659 talk to a lot more adrenaline. 1141 01:18:11,659 --> 01:18:14,460 He got mad at us for suggesting it. 1142 01:18:14,460 --> 01:18:16,460 Did you use the gun? 1143 01:18:16,460 --> 01:18:17,460 Yeah. 1144 01:18:17,460 --> 01:18:19,460 Yeah, I was digged off at the suggestion. 1145 01:18:19,460 --> 01:18:24,659 Did you all had some evidence in your ears 1146 01:18:24,659 --> 01:18:28,779 on the first exam when Bill saw you 1147 01:18:28,779 --> 01:18:32,140 of having some bubbles in there? 1148 01:18:32,140 --> 01:18:35,180 And did you have any sensation during reentry 1149 01:18:35,180 --> 01:18:36,939 that you were having a trouble clearing your ears 1150 01:18:36,939 --> 01:18:38,699 any of you? 1151 01:18:38,699 --> 01:18:39,539 You know what I'm saying? 1152 01:18:39,539 --> 01:18:40,539 I was probably surprising to me. 1153 01:18:40,539 --> 01:18:42,220 I was looking forward to it, surprisingly. 1154 01:18:42,220 --> 01:18:43,859 Everybody had this, no problem, Bill. 1155 01:18:44,539 --> 01:18:48,020 I could feel the pressure change, but, 1156 01:18:48,020 --> 01:18:49,819 no, I could hear them pop. 1157 01:18:49,819 --> 01:18:51,460 But you know, I could do that too 1158 01:18:51,460 --> 01:18:53,619 on my suit integrity check. 1159 01:18:53,619 --> 01:18:56,100 I could feel the pressure, you know, 1160 01:18:56,100 --> 01:18:58,060 and you just sort of pop it. 1161 01:18:58,060 --> 01:18:59,380 And I may come in before I forget 1162 01:18:59,380 --> 01:19:01,500 about this voice sounding full. 1163 01:19:01,500 --> 01:19:04,500 You know, I noticed that you'll do that a lot 1164 01:19:04,500 --> 01:19:07,819 if you, I think maybe it's because the atmosphere is dry, 1165 01:19:07,819 --> 01:19:09,979 but if you're doing a lot of talking 1166 01:19:09,979 --> 01:19:13,060 and then you come on and I would notice myself sounding, 1167 01:19:13,060 --> 01:19:16,300 sounding full, and I say, gee, I'm sounding like that. 1168 01:19:16,300 --> 01:19:20,180 And my head wasn't a constantly full at all, 1169 01:19:20,180 --> 01:19:22,420 but I could tell in my voice that I was sounding 1170 01:19:22,420 --> 01:19:23,979 here and in your voice. 1171 01:19:23,979 --> 01:19:25,819 If you've been doing a lot of talking. 1172 01:19:25,819 --> 01:19:27,500 Right. 1173 01:19:27,500 --> 01:19:28,340 That's true. 1174 01:19:28,340 --> 01:19:30,699 If you end up just talking on that, 1175 01:19:30,699 --> 01:19:33,260 like if you end up here, like in a session yesterday 1176 01:19:33,260 --> 01:19:36,579 where you talk a lot, you may even have that kind of thing. 1177 01:19:36,579 --> 01:19:40,020 If you just talk a lot during the day, you can have it. 1178 01:19:40,020 --> 01:19:41,979 We don't have too much of us to do it here, Charles. 1179 01:19:41,979 --> 01:19:44,180 Yeah. 1180 01:19:44,180 --> 01:19:45,180 Now we're back with that. 1181 01:19:45,180 --> 01:19:49,579 Hey, Chuck, come in on those asses. 1182 01:19:49,579 --> 01:19:51,819 We're looking for somebody kind of glad. 1183 01:19:51,819 --> 01:19:52,619 Who is it? 1184 01:19:52,619 --> 01:19:55,260 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1185 01:19:55,260 --> 01:19:58,899 Come in on the afterbubble. 1186 01:19:58,899 --> 01:20:00,100 The pressure gets to them. 1187 01:20:00,100 --> 01:20:03,220 And they separate into the Gillian bubbles. 1188 01:20:03,220 --> 01:20:06,460 Not a most of this very bubbly and filled with air. 1189 01:20:06,460 --> 01:20:08,739 And so if you take a cap off, it comes out. 1190 01:20:08,739 --> 01:20:10,899 It starts leaking. 1191 01:20:10,899 --> 01:20:15,779 It's a little bit of salelage, but yeah. 1192 01:20:15,779 --> 01:20:16,779 Okay. 1193 01:20:16,779 --> 01:20:19,340 And it's kind of difficult to control that stuff. 1194 01:20:19,340 --> 01:20:21,460 That was the first time you opened a bottle, right? 1195 01:20:21,460 --> 01:20:22,699 Always, always. 1196 01:20:22,699 --> 01:20:26,649 Every time you open it. 1197 01:20:26,649 --> 01:20:30,020 Yeah. 1198 01:20:30,020 --> 01:20:33,420 Okay, so what technique did you use for finding those drops? 1199 01:20:33,420 --> 01:20:34,899 How did you put them in? 1200 01:20:34,899 --> 01:20:37,100 Very gentle squeeze trying to get just one drop. 1201 01:20:37,100 --> 01:20:39,579 And they're telling about it. 1202 01:20:39,579 --> 01:20:41,060 Just put the drop drop in there. 1203 01:20:41,060 --> 01:20:42,859 Put it in there and hose it. 1204 01:20:43,859 --> 01:20:46,859 Just like we told it to. 1205 01:20:46,859 --> 01:20:50,859 Good boy, right? 1206 01:20:50,859 --> 01:21:01,100 What did you take those PRDs down in your suits? 1207 01:21:01,100 --> 01:21:04,100 You never believe it, Charles. 1208 01:21:04,100 --> 01:21:05,100 We had zipper pockets. 1209 01:21:05,100 --> 01:21:07,100 You're kidding, huh? 1210 01:21:07,100 --> 01:21:09,100 It's unbelievable. 1211 01:21:09,100 --> 01:21:10,100 They were there. 1212 01:21:10,100 --> 01:21:13,100 We pulled out those coveralls and they were zippers on it. 1213 01:21:14,100 --> 01:21:17,100 First time we've seen zippers in the old training site. 1214 01:21:17,100 --> 01:21:19,100 They're not in the training suits. 1215 01:21:19,100 --> 01:21:20,100 They're just on the plates. 1216 01:21:20,100 --> 01:21:22,100 Just on the plate. 1217 01:21:22,100 --> 01:21:24,100 Well, how about that? 1218 01:21:24,100 --> 01:21:25,100 Okay. 1219 01:21:25,100 --> 01:21:30,100 We had requested it way, way back and forgotten about the way we made the official request. 1220 01:21:30,100 --> 01:21:33,100 And it was already in the mail and nobody who put it. 1221 01:21:33,100 --> 01:21:35,100 And now the training devices were that way. 1222 01:21:35,100 --> 01:21:38,100 But lo and behold, all out of the package that came with them. 1223 01:21:38,100 --> 01:21:41,100 That's great. 1224 01:21:41,100 --> 01:21:42,100 They were great too. 1225 01:21:43,100 --> 01:21:52,039 Okay. 1226 01:21:52,039 --> 01:22:00,449 I understand where that is. 1227 01:22:00,449 --> 01:22:11,449 When you remove your PGA's now, is there a point of the checklist where we shouldn't include the removal of the PRDs back into your flight coveralls or is that not there? 1228 01:22:11,449 --> 01:22:14,449 It's already says take all the items out of here. 1229 01:22:14,449 --> 01:22:15,449 Oh, it does. 1230 01:22:15,449 --> 01:22:18,449 That happens to be one that's by itself. 1231 01:22:18,449 --> 01:22:19,449 I see. 1232 01:22:19,449 --> 01:22:22,449 If you forget that extra pocket's there, you forget it. 1233 01:22:22,449 --> 01:22:29,449 Now, it's listed in there when we take the suits off the first day. 1234 01:22:29,449 --> 01:22:46,449 I guess, you know, and then when you bring the suits back over from the land wide, you know, a pretty rough timeline that it wouldn't, I don't know if it's being good to put that in your timeline book or not, because that time your main purpose is to just get the suits and get them stuff. 1235 01:22:46,449 --> 01:22:50,449 And then you jerk them down and kind of zip them up in those banks pretty fast. 1236 01:22:50,449 --> 01:22:53,449 Right into the back. 1237 01:22:53,449 --> 01:22:55,449 Okay. 1238 01:22:55,449 --> 01:22:59,449 Probably wouldn't hurt, I guess, when we list the items, take all of the suits. 1239 01:22:59,449 --> 01:23:03,449 When we come back to the land, we just have PRDs in there, it's another item. 1240 01:23:03,449 --> 01:23:07,449 We have sunglasses and pencils, no risk of that. 1241 01:23:07,449 --> 01:23:08,449 That's what it is. 1242 01:23:08,449 --> 01:23:13,449 You said you use sunglasses. 1243 01:23:13,449 --> 01:23:15,449 You don't only want to get used to sunglasses. 1244 01:23:15,449 --> 01:23:16,449 Is that right? 1245 01:23:16,449 --> 01:23:18,449 I use prescription. 1246 01:23:18,449 --> 01:23:19,449 Correct. 1247 01:23:19,449 --> 01:23:20,449 Oh, okay. 1248 01:23:20,449 --> 01:23:22,449 When did you use the correct one? 1249 01:23:22,449 --> 01:23:26,449 A couple times when I had great small print in the flat one. 1250 01:23:26,449 --> 01:23:29,449 Just in the command module. 1251 01:23:29,449 --> 01:23:32,449 Yeah, with the held off all the time, I didn't use it. 1252 01:23:32,449 --> 01:23:33,449 No, I didn't. 1253 01:23:34,449 --> 01:23:36,449 How do you use it for time and time to see this? 1254 01:23:36,449 --> 01:23:37,449 Particularly in the LMS? 1255 01:23:37,449 --> 01:23:40,449 Yeah, it's I want to get a depth just below that length. 1256 01:23:40,449 --> 01:23:41,449 Yeah. 1257 01:23:41,449 --> 01:23:44,449 Did you have any feeling about that on the lunar surface? 1258 01:23:44,449 --> 01:23:49,449 How it that low, that the light levels were finer, some tree because of that? 1259 01:23:49,449 --> 01:23:51,449 Because that is a very typical thing. 1260 01:23:51,449 --> 01:23:53,449 That's an interesting thing. 1261 01:23:53,449 --> 01:23:57,449 The light levels were generally higher in the little module. 1262 01:23:57,449 --> 01:24:02,449 The thing that you don't simulate on the LMS is the difference between day and night. 1263 01:24:03,449 --> 01:24:12,449 How about out on the surface when you were actually out on the surface and had your visor down? 1264 01:24:12,449 --> 01:24:13,449 Yeah. 1265 01:24:13,449 --> 01:24:15,449 Did those light levels body at all? 1266 01:24:15,449 --> 01:24:19,449 Did you feel that you were having any difficulties in that? 1267 01:24:19,449 --> 01:24:22,760 It's either the problems I have. 1268 01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:24,760 It's with reading small print. 1269 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:25,760 It was close. 1270 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:27,760 Yes, it was in the light levels below. 1271 01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:29,760 And I had the problem in the LMS. 1272 01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:32,760 A couple times when you see a mess in the LMS, I think I don't know how many times I broke them up. 1273 01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:34,760 On the bus. 1274 01:24:34,760 --> 01:24:35,760 Yes. 1275 01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:36,760 6 or 8 times. 1276 01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:38,760 We'll try to read down the damn cards. 1277 01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:40,760 It's the best only time I've ever seen you do something like that. 1278 01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:45,760 Yeah, but you know, the surface chuckets either start white, I mean, dazzling white or it's absolutely black. 1279 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:46,760 It's black. 1280 01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:49,760 I don't think I said that's a great deal of do with that point. 1281 01:24:49,760 --> 01:24:51,760 Yeah, that's right. 1282 01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:56,760 I think you've covered most of that stuff about the vision on the surface, and so it's pretty well in there. 1283 01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:59,760 I think you've done that very well in the solar island. 1284 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:03,760 We need to, if we have something that comes back up for that, we'll get the word to you. 1285 01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:08,760 But as far as I can tell from getting through all that so far, I think we've got most of that covered. 1286 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:14,760 You know, I might point out to you if you want to pursue the visibility further for any sort of medical thing. 1287 01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:18,760 If you look at the photographs, it might have been in there exactly what we saw. 1288 01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:19,760 Is that right? 1289 01:25:19,760 --> 01:25:22,760 If you look across Sun, the visibility is great. 1290 01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:26,760 If you look up Sun, everything's layered out by the Sun. 1291 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:33,760 If you look down Sun, all of the general Sun all rolling and subdued craters, they just disappear on it. 1292 01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:34,760 Yeah. 1293 01:25:34,760 --> 01:25:36,760 But across Sun, visibility is great. 1294 01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:38,760 The photographs are the same way. 1295 01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:40,760 You know, just real brief on it, same subject. 1296 01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:45,760 It's kind of hard to tell when you're looking at just negatives of these 70 millimeters. 1297 01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:51,760 But I was looking at some of the zero-phase pictures last night and how the targets would disappear at zero-phase. 1298 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:53,760 It does it on the films. 1299 01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:55,760 Same way. 1300 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:59,760 As it turned out, I'll have to see what the prints look like. 1301 01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:04,760 But my first impression is that I didn't see much more than what the camera did at zero-phase. 1302 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:08,760 Which it's going to surprise me because I would have thought different. 1303 01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:14,760 But I don't take that as any sort of data until I've had a chance to really see a blown up print. 1304 01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:17,760 You know, I'm just looking at some negatives in here. 1305 01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:19,760 But that's my first impression. 1306 01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:23,760 I said that the eyeball can see more than the film can. 1307 01:26:23,760 --> 01:26:26,760 But with our particular film, I think there's a pretty good source point. 1308 01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:28,760 I'm not going to be about the same. 1309 01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:29,760 That's great. 1310 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:32,760 Yeah, it's the same way that we have a bad eyeball set. 1311 01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:34,760 No, it was a good film. 1312 01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:37,760 That's a pretty rare thing. 1313 01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:40,760 Hey, on the sunglasses, I guess you got it. 1314 01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:43,760 His bars on him, nobody even broke the sunglasses out. 1315 01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:44,760 Right. 1316 01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:45,760 And you didn't really need it? 1317 01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:46,760 No. 1318 01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:47,760 Right. 1319 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:51,760 Well, I think the only time we needed him was when there was sun shafting in. 1320 01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:55,760 But in PTC, just wait a couple of minutes, it's going to be gone. 1321 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:56,760 Goes away. 1322 01:26:56,760 --> 01:26:57,760 Okay. 1323 01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:05,760 And there was a time at 196 hours where we lost your respiratory system, your CPN. 1324 01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:12,760 Did you notice whether it was the signal conditioner disconnected in or was there a sensor loose or anything? 1325 01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:13,760 No. 1326 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:14,760 There was nothing different. 1327 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,760 And you couldn't see anything obvious as to why? 1328 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:21,760 No, I went down and went over the whole system. 1329 01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:26,760 We checked the sensors, checked the belt, checked the connection. 1330 01:27:26,760 --> 01:27:29,760 And we were getting too close to entry to really do it. 1331 01:27:29,760 --> 01:27:31,760 Yeah, no great deal of troubleshooting. 1332 01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:34,760 No, there was no point to do it then. 1333 01:27:34,760 --> 01:27:35,760 Okay, fine. 1334 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:36,760 But we're going to check those things. 1335 01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:39,760 We never had a signal conditioner as such fail. 1336 01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:43,760 And that's one of the things that's sort of interesting to win the sensor problem. 1337 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:47,760 And we want to be sure to check those signal conditioners out. 1338 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:49,760 Okay. 1339 01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:53,760 I think we've got most of this mobility thing done in there. 1340 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:55,760 I was talking about that bottom end belt. 1341 01:27:55,760 --> 01:28:01,760 Let me just say, I think my urine bike problem, the ACTA problem, is kind of related to that belt, 1342 01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:05,760 in that you know the ACTA is held by that plastic strap. 1343 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:06,760 Right. 1344 01:28:06,760 --> 01:28:12,760 I think the problem in getting a hose length correct has to do with the fact that the ACTA 1345 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:15,760 doesn't always end up in the same place. 1346 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:19,760 You try to get it below the belt so that it doesn't get on top of it 1347 01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:22,760 and increase the dimension of your urine. 1348 01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:25,760 And I think in doing that, that probably will work a little more. 1349 01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:30,760 You know, or the gun down and have it for maybe in retrospect. 1350 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:32,760 In some way, that thing could be fixed. 1351 01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:34,760 Yeah, probably. 1352 01:28:34,760 --> 01:28:41,039 I'm going to move up and down and therefore you can adjust the hose length. 1353 01:28:41,039 --> 01:28:44,039 Oh, better. 1354 01:28:44,039 --> 01:28:46,039 I wore mine differently. 1355 01:28:46,039 --> 01:28:47,039 I wore mine over the belt. 1356 01:28:47,039 --> 01:28:49,039 That may be the deal. 1357 01:28:49,039 --> 01:28:53,039 Well, I think it's a question of fixing the vertical height of that thing. 1358 01:28:53,039 --> 01:28:56,039 So you can't get the right length of the hose. 1359 01:28:56,039 --> 01:28:57,039 But the line was up and down. 1360 01:28:57,039 --> 01:29:02,039 I think when you reached in, you probably thought it was sagging down as it was out of being full of fluid. 1361 01:29:02,039 --> 01:29:03,039 You wanted it. 1362 01:29:03,039 --> 01:29:07,039 But also because I used to wear it below the belt and the other. 1363 01:29:07,039 --> 01:29:10,039 But his hose had a definite kink in it. 1364 01:29:10,039 --> 01:29:11,039 It came out of the fitting. 1365 01:29:11,039 --> 01:29:13,039 It just made a sharp kink. 1366 01:29:13,039 --> 01:29:14,039 And it was bent. 1367 01:29:14,039 --> 01:29:16,039 It's like you see a little bit. 1368 01:29:16,039 --> 01:29:20,300 Yeah. 1369 01:29:20,300 --> 01:29:29,300 Did you have, did you feel any real dryness of skin as such or dryness of your lips or your nose and all? 1370 01:29:29,300 --> 01:29:32,300 Did you ever have any sensation that way during that? 1371 01:29:32,300 --> 01:29:34,300 Not exceptionally for me. 1372 01:29:34,300 --> 01:29:37,300 I shouldn't have any obvious sensations, right? 1373 01:29:37,300 --> 01:29:38,300 I don't know. 1374 01:29:38,300 --> 01:29:39,300 The student did. 1375 01:29:39,300 --> 01:29:42,300 I noticed his lips were cracking about 4 to 5 days. 1376 01:29:42,300 --> 01:29:43,300 We got like TDIs. 1377 01:29:43,300 --> 01:29:45,300 But I don't know what you're going to do. 1378 01:29:45,300 --> 01:29:46,300 Yeah. 1379 01:29:46,300 --> 01:29:47,300 No, I didn't feel dry. 1380 01:29:47,300 --> 01:29:52,300 In fact, I know cracking in here too. 1381 01:29:52,300 --> 01:29:53,300 But no. 1382 01:29:53,300 --> 01:30:04,010 I didn't feel any dryness particularly though. 1383 01:30:04,010 --> 01:30:11,010 Did they talk to you about the field chamois and wanted to tack on the white flesh thing on the end of this thing? 1384 01:30:12,010 --> 01:30:13,010 Yeah. 1385 01:30:13,010 --> 01:30:14,010 Yeah. 1386 01:30:14,010 --> 01:30:19,010 Why don't you tell me to come on in and let me get that out of the way then? 1387 01:30:19,010 --> 01:30:21,010 Hey, Chuck, just real fast. 1388 01:30:21,010 --> 01:30:28,010 I know you've got to take the data and you're looking ahead to the longer flights. 1389 01:30:28,010 --> 01:30:30,010 I'm not trying to downplay it. 1390 01:30:30,010 --> 01:30:35,010 But this weight loss, you know, I think, in my case, I don't want it to be misconstrued. 1391 01:30:35,010 --> 01:30:40,010 You know, I was just sitting here thinking, you know, I weighed less after I feel tripped to Iceland 1392 01:30:40,010 --> 01:30:42,010 than I did after this flight too. 1393 01:30:42,010 --> 01:30:50,010 You know, a weight loss of me of five pounds is just, you know, comes and goes with no problem at all. 1394 01:30:50,010 --> 01:30:53,010 Well, that's why the body water things are going to be pretty important. 1395 01:30:53,010 --> 01:30:54,010 Yeah. 1396 01:30:54,010 --> 01:30:56,010 You know, is that really it? 1397 01:30:56,010 --> 01:30:59,010 You know, is it really a total body water loss? 1398 01:30:59,010 --> 01:31:00,010 I don't know. 1399 01:31:00,010 --> 01:31:01,010 That'll be it. 1400 01:31:01,010 --> 01:31:02,010 Yeah. 1401 01:31:02,010 --> 01:31:04,010 A real important part to hang on here. 1402 01:31:04,010 --> 01:31:08,010 That's why we'll go over that way so that it is clear. 1403 01:31:08,010 --> 01:31:11,010 We won't have a total body water or something, or an exercise of your food space. 1404 01:31:11,010 --> 01:31:12,010 So I have to quarantine now. 1405 01:31:12,010 --> 01:31:13,010 We'll be done with the data. 1406 01:31:13,010 --> 01:31:16,989 Those are data matters. 1407 01:31:16,989 --> 01:31:17,989 Those are data matters. 1408 01:31:17,989 --> 01:31:19,989 We're just doing data counting here. 1409 01:31:19,989 --> 01:31:23,340 Why can't we get it out? 1410 01:31:23,340 --> 01:31:25,340 I won't allow you that way. 1411 01:31:25,340 --> 01:31:29,649 We're just not quick. 1412 01:31:29,649 --> 01:31:30,649 Let's get it out. 1413 01:31:30,649 --> 01:31:37,829 I'll talk with you later. 1414 01:31:37,829 --> 01:31:38,829 There is a scientist. 1415 01:31:38,829 --> 01:31:45,220 Let's go. 1416 01:31:45,220 --> 01:31:46,220 Yeah, there he is. 1417 01:31:46,220 --> 01:31:47,220 Phil, come out. 1418 01:31:47,220 --> 01:31:48,220 Hey, y'all want any coffee? 1419 01:31:48,220 --> 01:31:49,220 I've got a big pot right here. 1420 01:31:49,220 --> 01:31:52,220 Yeah, I'm coming over to get some right now. 1421 01:31:52,220 --> 01:31:54,789 I want to go. 1422 01:31:54,789 --> 01:31:59,789 Big suggested that we should tack on a few questions about light flashes. 1423 01:31:59,789 --> 01:32:00,789 The end is brief. 1424 01:32:00,789 --> 01:32:03,789 I hope you're going to have a moment to do that. 1425 01:32:03,789 --> 01:32:10,789 What we'd like to do is to clarify some of the subjective impressions that you've got. 1426 01:32:10,789 --> 01:32:17,789 What you saw on the way of light flashes and also to clarify the conditions under which you saw. 1427 01:32:17,789 --> 01:32:18,789 I'm scared. 1428 01:32:18,789 --> 01:32:20,789 Can you stand back from the mic just a little bit? 1429 01:32:20,789 --> 01:32:21,789 That's a boom mic. 1430 01:32:21,789 --> 01:32:23,789 Phil, can you tell what you're saying right here? 1431 01:32:23,789 --> 01:32:24,789 He'll pick it up. 1432 01:32:24,789 --> 01:32:25,789 Okay. 1433 01:32:25,789 --> 01:32:34,050 You need to get really close to the mic. 1434 01:32:34,050 --> 01:32:35,050 You should be right from the mic. 1435 01:32:35,050 --> 01:32:37,050 Is there a way that the room could be there? 1436 01:32:37,050 --> 01:32:39,050 Is there room to be there? 1437 01:32:39,050 --> 01:32:40,050 Yeah. 1438 01:32:40,050 --> 01:32:42,050 In a while. 1439 01:32:42,050 --> 01:32:43,050 In a while. 1440 01:32:43,050 --> 01:32:44,050 In a while. 1441 01:32:44,050 --> 01:32:46,489 Okay. 1442 01:32:46,489 --> 01:32:52,489 The first question we got is the streaks that you saw with a very sharp phenomenon 1443 01:32:52,489 --> 01:32:55,489 or were they rather diffuse like fuzzy? 1444 01:32:55,489 --> 01:32:58,770 Once I saw it were very sharp. 1445 01:32:58,770 --> 01:33:00,770 There was no mistaking what it was. 1446 01:33:00,770 --> 01:33:02,770 It was a streaks. 1447 01:33:02,770 --> 01:33:03,770 So long. 1448 01:33:03,770 --> 01:33:04,770 Yes, the pain is weak. 1449 01:33:04,770 --> 01:33:05,770 It was very good. 1450 01:33:05,770 --> 01:33:07,770 Yeah, I think that's correct. 1451 01:33:07,770 --> 01:33:14,770 Both the single streaks and the double shots that could be very clear to me. 1452 01:33:14,770 --> 01:33:16,770 They were quite clear. 1453 01:33:16,770 --> 01:33:22,770 And I think I made the comment over the loop that most of my streaks appeared to be on them. 1454 01:33:22,770 --> 01:33:29,770 And for the first several days I got the impression that this direction was predominant. 1455 01:33:29,770 --> 01:33:34,770 Later on it appeared that I don't think I could get that good pattern. 1456 01:33:34,770 --> 01:33:41,770 But that was my first impression for the first couple of days. 1457 01:33:41,770 --> 01:33:45,770 The next question is was there any apparent direction of propagation? 1458 01:33:45,770 --> 01:33:51,770 And could you tell it was coming from one side to the other or was it just a flash? 1459 01:33:51,770 --> 01:33:55,770 Several times you didn't say from the left to the right or something like that. 1460 01:33:55,770 --> 01:34:00,770 Tried to correlate it, but in my case I couldn't really correlate a pattern out of it. 1461 01:34:00,770 --> 01:34:09,770 Yeah, I would think that the time period which we tried to report them straight by street flash by flash was represented. 1462 01:34:09,770 --> 01:34:14,770 And it was my feeling that it was generally random during that time period 1463 01:34:14,770 --> 01:34:18,770 and therefore generally random throughout the time that we were noticing. 1464 01:34:18,770 --> 01:34:24,770 Now I meant could you detect that it was moving from one side to the other in general? 1465 01:34:24,770 --> 01:34:27,770 It was moving in an A specific flash. 1466 01:34:27,770 --> 01:34:29,770 Oh an A specific flash, yes. 1467 01:34:29,770 --> 01:34:32,770 But you could see it as a prevel from one side to the other. 1468 01:34:32,770 --> 01:34:35,770 You really had to try to report that way. 1469 01:34:35,770 --> 01:34:37,770 That's the way of propagation. 1470 01:34:37,770 --> 01:34:39,770 Because it happens, you have to be very fast, you know. 1471 01:34:39,770 --> 01:34:42,770 And that question kind of redundant then? 1472 01:34:42,770 --> 01:34:45,770 I don't believe you. 1473 01:34:46,770 --> 01:34:52,770 Was there some character to these flashes that had some aspect of direction? 1474 01:34:52,770 --> 01:34:59,020 Were they all the same rod shaped or were they have a tail on them? 1475 01:34:59,020 --> 01:35:04,020 Well, what I reported as a street was simply that. 1476 01:35:04,020 --> 01:35:14,020 Now maybe the way we determined the direction subconsciously was that it was a ball of light moving in a direction, leaving a tail. 1477 01:35:15,020 --> 01:35:17,020 But I don't, I can't say that for sure. 1478 01:35:17,020 --> 01:35:23,020 All I reported was a street and I had the impression of it moving from one direction to the other. 1479 01:35:23,020 --> 01:35:28,020 And I reported that direction and I can't clarify it much more than that. 1480 01:35:28,020 --> 01:35:29,020 What do you want to do? 1481 01:35:29,020 --> 01:35:31,020 You want to ask me a question. 1482 01:35:31,020 --> 01:35:32,020 We just denounce the lights. 1483 01:35:32,020 --> 01:35:34,020 I think they can see this in the dark room. 1484 01:35:34,020 --> 01:35:35,020 But just try it. 1485 01:35:35,020 --> 01:35:40,020 The idea is to try to see whether this is what you saw or similar to it. 1486 01:35:40,020 --> 01:35:42,020 I think you need to like that a bit. 1487 01:35:43,020 --> 01:35:44,020 Can you see anything? 1488 01:35:44,020 --> 01:35:47,020 Yeah, that's what it looked like, except it was traveling. 1489 01:35:47,020 --> 01:35:53,020 In other words, it started out and then definitely progressed across the field of view. 1490 01:35:53,020 --> 01:35:56,020 The direction of motion for the individual. 1491 01:35:56,020 --> 01:35:57,020 Was it that right? 1492 01:35:57,020 --> 01:35:59,020 Yeah, except you're not traveling. 1493 01:35:59,020 --> 01:36:00,020 It was traveling. 1494 01:36:00,020 --> 01:36:01,020 I know. 1495 01:36:01,020 --> 01:36:03,020 You started at a point in a street. 1496 01:36:03,020 --> 01:36:06,020 I never had seen two simultaneously either. 1497 01:36:06,020 --> 01:36:09,020 You had two streaks like that. 1498 01:36:09,020 --> 01:36:10,020 I never saw that. 1499 01:36:13,539 --> 01:36:17,539 At one time you saw a semicolon tube thing. 1500 01:36:17,539 --> 01:36:18,539 So what? 1501 01:36:18,539 --> 01:36:19,539 A semicolon tube thing.
