We're picking up a 12-dash old lift off round the wheel and back
And again, we're going to work things went nominal as per the checklist. We're going to
Get the little surface checklist
Okay, we're going to say so let him power up and
Launch a prep
Went well. We did not do the P22
And everything else just went as advertised on the limb she came up powered up beautifully
Okay, the lift off was
Again went went
Normal we got all obviously all our pyros and we lost no change over Parker valves or anything
The only thing that I would like to mention
Let the on people get up here is at
Very soon after lift off
We had a pair of loss of calm a lot of noise in the SP
It turned out that we were down linking
But there was something wrong with the uplink so
The CDR watched the most of the guidance and
It caught out in a blind
Altitudes and goals and what have you as we've pitched over and pressed on up before about the first
Two or three minutes. I think the little module pilot had to concern himself for trying to get combat
Yeah, I meant again. It was another one. They probably got a
Goldstone
Drop the uplink and then when they were getting it back, I was switching on these
It was a very inopportune time
I might say to because it happened just right after ignition. I think that's something
Encosure to be able
Clarified because we certainly can it was essentially no calm on all the antennas. We got into a
They they brief us on a trajectory. We we flew into a trajectory that
That appeared to be normal the eggs show the slight out of plane. I believe and as a result our tweak
Had nine foot per second. It was minus four minus nine and plus one. We burn out XZ Y net order and
It looked like the eggs out of plane
It was good about 70% rule of 70 and it looked like we might have had a somewhat a g-sensitive drift in our
in our Y
Accelerometer and the things but the tweak as it turned off was an excellent tweak
because our rendezvous resulted in
In just as nominal rendezvous and a nominal trajectory and profile as I guess I've ever been involved with
The drift and X-celerometer did not bother us anywhere else in the tracking or in the
Inter rendezvous at all, rendezvous navigation was followed the checklist
We got right off the form very well. We have auto updates into the eggs
The only thing I might mention here is when it came to
To make an a TPI burn
we
The residuals and the TPI burn were greater than what I had expected them and we
Did not record them because I wanted to get them. I wanted to get them
knolled out just as soon as possible, but they were and I don't know the tents, but they were minus seven and X
And they were four and four and I'm not sure whether they were plus or minus in the Y and Z
But I they were they were the point I'm making is they were large
Larger than I had expected they were minus seven and four point something in the four point something we
Reduced those to a less than two tenths of a foot per second and
From there on continue to plot right through the mid courses
Right up the pike on anomalous trajectories
Communications after that first lash up again comment about that comment was good
Couple comments about the eggs
after about five or ten minutes
Early in
Sversion I always check the
Accelerometers on the after insertion and they look really real good
Inchuffed about five or ten minutes later, and I can't remember exactly
I looked and I had accumulated a foot or two per foot a second and X
Saw a gene went free and I did a gyro column. I did that without talking to you and understanding what I'm doing
Okay, the here none of you just also mentioned on the TPI solutions the eggs
Had essentially a with a through a three feet per second a good TPI solution after six marks
the insertion solution
Was not very good
2017 marks the pink the recycle and things final or a very close to that couple of people in
And a pinked recycle head. I don't remember exactly cause for 50 yet, so I had 17 so okay a mid course solutions
first mid course I
agreed effectively
All systems except
Ags out of plane was a little bit high and
That decision was made to burn the
I board pink solution out of the limb which was minus 1.2 plus 0.4 and plus 0.3
We continued to track
right up the course two came up and
We again compared all the solutions
The eggs out of plane was still a little bit
high and and
Actually the opposite direction from the pinks. We had a slight variation in the CSM solution in
Z. I don't know why I
Came up with plus 5.4 feet per second in Z
So we really didn't get a very good correlation between the CSM and the LAM on the second
big course
But the pinks was still performing the radar was still performing and based upon our
trajectory plot and based upon
Our following the nominal
Nursh alina side rates we decided to burn the
pinks
on board pink solution
in the LAM and it was minus 0.4 minus 0.7 and minus 1.6 and from there on out we just
continued to follow the inertial line of sight angles and
very little tweaking
in either in Y or Z and we just sort of floated
breaking gates
At one mile I think we put about took about six or seven feet per second off to hit 30
We met all the gates
as prescribed and
just came moving very slowly into final station keeping
went into a
Formation flight around the
CSM
Got a good inspection of the spacecraft and the sim bay
The report of which is in a transcript. Everything looked good to us
We eventually went over the command module mover to the docking attitude that allowed just took his position
his docking attitude
Did his pitch in Yominova and
or gave the
station keeping control to the command module for pitching Yominova and stood by for
for docking okay as
Command module product proceeding along with the docking
I think the one of the
More noticeable differences between this docking and the docking
With the S-4B is the fact that the S-M stage
Dead bands a lot more S-4B studies are off but you can tell the
We just watched the lamb
Dead band because he would change
Attitude and you try to follow it
And looking on the first attempt coming in I must have less than a tenth of a foot per second
Just barely closing on it. I just taking it nice and easy
Made contact and did not get
Captured as soon as it didn't get captured when it's obviously you're closing too slow back off
All a couple of three feet. I guess
Something like that Reno all the rates and
Initiated the closing rate and make got captured
As soon as we get to capture both vehicles went to CMC free
and you look around
Check the barber poles and whatever look back out there
I had some rates in the CSM, but I'm sure now that the the lamb head race also you must have
But we we did when it says we we went free. See since capture the lamb went free and then
The CSM trying to know all the rates ended up perturbating the lamb and giving us rates
So we finally give up on that
Mode had the the lamb go to
attitude hole and then once you go to attitude home then the CSM couldn't hold the rates and
We got lined up and
Tempted the hard docking no problem
Probe retract came back this time
Didn't sound like it was as much of a ripple fire was more of a
And it was a quicker
docking
No, I put it hard docked and it was
Okay, I want to say some about visual sightings during around
I was able to from the lamb
I was able to see the command module in
When it was sunlit
At somewhere around a hundred miles and definitely define that that was a command module
After the command module one of the darkness. I could not pick up his tracking light
Until we were well within about 40 miles
I think it's transcript to got more an accurate time, but could not pick up the
docking
Like the run of who liked rather from the command module to where we're within 40 miles and then just a very
initially very dim faint
Flash I was able to verify on board that the lamb tracking light was working and I found it figured out how it was reflecting off the
underside of the EVA
Handrail on the left forward side of the lamb
so I could see the
lamb tracking light
flashing and
Also whenever there were some particles we took with us
That stayed with the spacecraft and you could see the
Sequential flash off of those particles. There is a result of our our tracking line
Okay, this is the command module part of our dimension. It's actually 11.0
About the visibility of the
Through the optic. I got down here this anything else to add about right now
I would be in television if the target when the lamb
Lovers type what you see up turned out. I took a lot of footage
Not only the assing mag, but we put it on the another mag. We had part of the mag
And it includes the same bay
Right or long. You didn't have a
Hustlebot on board, so we had a lot of Hustlebot for target to be the run of you and something in the surface stuff in the process
Okay
Post-docking check like we're going to 13.0 lunar module jettison through TI
Post-docking check and pressurization
Well, first of all, I guess you said you had every last made this time. All right, every last work done
Hope all docking latches worked. Okay
The
General comment I want to make about
The post docking operations is at the
throughout the round of who the
Both pilots in the lab kept their helmets on for a dust
Keep the dust off primarily that commander took off his gloves. Oh, I mean almost immediately after insertion
And flew the entire round of it that way
You took yours off sometime later
I kept mine on
I kept your gloves on too
Oh, okay after insertion I did most of my pre-insertion work with the gloves off because I didn't want to take the time
I want to get that initial act solution and I could and I could get that
fairly rapidly with the gloves and I didn't take the gloves off until
Maybe 10 or 15 minutes after insertion, but I kept the helmet on all the way through most of the transfer
Just to avoid reading the dust because I've had the
Irritation science irritation on the surface in the commander kept the helmet on
throughout the round of who and
docking I took my gloves off after insertion and left them off now
When we started
We started getting prepared
Soon as we were hard dock the commander
Took off his helmet
And as I look back at that because of the dust debris in the left spacecraft
I'm sorry. I did it
I could have left the helmet on and
I would have had a lot less
Not troublesome, but it was just I in mouth type of irritation you knew you were in a very heavily
Infiltrated atmosphere in the lamb
Because of the lunar dust although I don't know how much lunar dust previous flights had but the
I think we saved a great deal of grief by taping up
By sweeping all the dust we could find on the floor into the holes and putting our tape covers over those holes
I think that had to help a great deal because there was an awful lot of dust on the floor that we didn't see
I had a commander had his helmet and goes off
off throughout the entire
Transfer
Basically the way we handle the transfer was the way we planned the I think the
Love pilot did most of the
preparation of the gear in the
in the
Laman in a commander state in a tunnel and
past things on and the
Inventory was going on on a command module side and on the left side both
We back into each other's suits the best we could and everything else that got supposedly transferred unbagged or uncovered
This is young things part of the scene these comments to the concert
I think we got things remarkably clean and it wasn't all that really was oh that's true
I didn't want to ask that
Contrast he may have thought I was dirty, but I was surprised we were able to
Well that atmosphere that the commander was referring to in a lab after took his helmet off
I could go halfway through the tunnel and stick my head up into the command module
And it was a totally refreshed unpluted atmosphere up there that never did get
I think having a vacuum cleaner running in the lab had a lot to do
We never did back in in the command marker because this wasn't necessarily
Was a mystery back in the command
And the suits were noticeably clean that by the vacuum cleaner
You could tell you were pulling stuff off them all or they were still dirty and every other stuff from the time we handled it
We got our hands dirty. We uh, we
Effectively stayed on a transfer list
I say effectively throughout the transfer however some things got transferred
Out of order
It got temporarily stored in the command module
But we effectively used the transfer list as a not as a cookbook
Follow recipe type of thing but as an inventory list and we inventory it several times from both ends and find out that
We were satisfied we had everything transferred
And then first time with the lump close up lump close up went nominal we got back into the
Into the lab
earned to the command module and
The commander closed out the the the canopy closed out the limb and for convenience the commander
effectively
Went back and closed out the limb hatch
put in the command module hatch
Because of the slow tunnel vent or the long duration of tunnel vent
Uh, the commander uh stayed in the tunnel the canopy and his seat and the CMP and let's see
Uh, we suit it up and got prepared for our
For our integrity check and as soon as it comes as soon as the line tunnel vent was complete and we were satisfied with integrity of the hatch
We went into the
Spit out to the student integrity checks
Yeah, that's the CMP. Let me make another comment on a tunnel vent time. I bet it must take
and
I'm not sure this is correct, but I bet at least three or four times
Longer than the simulator is for the tunnel vent
And I think that's gonna be happy to pull the skyline because it was talking
Like an event before you but ton of calls. I was easy
We had no uh no a joke and no pro which we were stalled
He lent for lent yet going through the rest of these uh
Mine triggers under the margillis and through T. I would just follow the checklist and it all
Seen to happen just as advertised
Well, we got a little bit intrigued with the
The lungescent you know at this time it was it was great and I just say a lot there are nice and pretty and we got a lot of good pictures
Uh, where we should have been maneuvering and we ended up
gaining into p41 after for the setburn
Uh, a little bit of light
But that's no problem either because we just run the residuals and people were in the hand that got a good setburn
I want to make a comment that I think cleaning control
In the command module was excellent considering all the dust and all the dirt
That just seemed to hear everything in the lamb when we got back in a command module with the exception of these suits
And with the exception of the lmp and the cdr
Everything
Was clean
And that's for the most part is because everything was bad before we brought it over
Bagged and zipped and we never did open anything
Uh, once we got it zipped up. So the command module stayed and I think that suit fan
Filder is probably going to be very very clean state exceptionally clean throughout the remainder of the flanks
I mean, yeah, the bagging and the deconamination bags I made a special effort ask for
the quest
Okay, order on navigation high gain. Why don't you pick that up?
Okay, I worry
From
September to you. I have no
no comments
I gain and always work good on these and that's bad and we're good
uh photography
When as advertised we have a lot of
targets of opportunity
Operations have been mentioned before
Let me just make one gross comment about the way we handled it as a three-man crew with assembly operations which after
Yes, didn't we? Yeah, okay, it's covered
I think I did say so
The tia updates
Section of start checks for good for tia up the commanders master alarm and every one of them all through the flight
Which made me feel good?
But you kept trying to get I made sure I made sure I got it on those last few
I was going to change any mode of operation
I'll tell you that last one
Where entry was the last one
I made sure I got it on tia
Just make you guys feel at home. I think if you think I didn't do it right if I didn't get the master on
The tia hat tia or whatever we would seem like more than that quite
Sure did it seemed like it was really pushing you back in the seat. Yeah
Around my growth. I think started out holding our heads up and it basically relaxed them back
I guess we must have had the spacecraft pretty well stowed or tied down
because
As I brief the CFP and LNP and as I recall those kind of burns
Back in Apollo 10
lots of things
Start moving through the spacecraft and find their
Do
on the
End of the spacecraft and much to my surprise
All we had was initial thought as we moved away from the station and we didn't have any gear coming from any work line through the space grip
So we cleaned it up pretty well. I find I got a
Carter white tag white tag
But other than that maybe one or two of those things in looking back
Yeah, I would have expected more gear to come
From somewhere, but we prepared for those burns pretty well
Well that remind brings up another point that reminds me though
Is it there is always
Water condensing on ECU
You know the pipes and one of your back and air when you get back to clean the suit's ever returned out
and
When we put our suits on for the EVA the next day
Your suits were noticeably wet
and
Also
PGA back up. It was damped down underneath the PGA back so I think
As a normal procedure
We should have I would be full of burn make sure the wipe with the water and the LAB
So now we do that. I wasn't really aware our suits were damp or put them out
But I was not aware I could look down there and I could not find any real water down in the
Down there, but it's just an ECS. Yeah, an ECS
There's always water down on ECS. I just assume that's where all I came from
It was all over it's that it's not a problem
Like you say, it was just dams and almost as if it was pulled
Down in the LAB and water was condensing on all of all of it
Okay, I think that covers
Right on through TDI
Let's see yeah, the one thing I want to mention on TDI is that
Again the simulator is set up such that because over one side of the world that band just kind of stays there and
Turned at TDI burn
It was bouncing back and forth from one side of the dead band to over to the other side of the dead band
and
When it's bouncing back and forth the role rate is up around
all four-tenths
Four-tenths of the degree per second. Okay, 14.0 chance earth coast and the thing that I just realized we neglected
Is anywhere about systems like to mention chlorination at this point
I think without fail do you ever talk about no I think without fail almost every
chlorination
leaked
Sometimes larger quantities of water other times just small quantities of water and I tell you where it leads
Well, or both companies pouring in your corn-aiden and
In buffer or water when you would do the buffer sample here
But where it leaked was appeared to me to leak within the ampule itself around the bag because
It was the chlorine the cylindrical chlorine dispenser
That was continually
Wet it was not the it was not where the dispenser fit into the needle or where the
Needle adapter fit into the spacecraft. It was within the barrel chlorine dispenser
Itself and we continually chlorination was a was a
a case of
Of always cleaning your hands with chlorine because you always had it available down there within that dispenser
And in some cases you had larger quantities of water that had to be wiped up with
with a tissue
That
Played us throughout the whole mission
It turned out not to be a serious problem because we learned how to handle it, but
That was one system anomaly that never had really been brought out
Let's see you see him be let me amplify that a little bit in
two cases
I'm almost positive that when you put the thing on the bandhead fitting and crank it on there
It did not puncture the ampule itself
And the reason I can I believe that's correct is that
when you start to to crack the
outside of the
cassette
Down to push the chlorine into the into the water system
It was very hard to turn
And if you if you tried to force it you could force it on down there
And I'm sure that's a good way to break an ampule on the thing
And if you take it just in two cases took the bandhead fitting loose again
And put it back on there and in both cases
Uh, then you try to squeeze the chlorine out of the ampule into the system
And it would turn easier
But it's still hard to
Offer it hard to also get harder to crank that thing down
But we did not yeah, we got the coronation done. We didn't miss any injections of chlorine and we didn't miss uh
We didn't miss any of the buffer samples
Uh, so I guess we got the job done. It was just a little bit messy
And chlorine was evident and because uh, the CDR eventually peeled all the outer skin off his right hand
And I'm convinced it was due to the chlorine and had nothing to do with the EVA
transverse pulse systems navigation. Let's press on and see what we can say about that. Okay
Well, let me see how much transverse pulse we're gonna do
Let's get yeah, let's go through up to the CSMEVA
Okay, okay transverse cold the first thing I want to mention is passive thermal patrol
was
At what I would call unusual attitudes because of the UV and IR requirements. No, these unusual attitudes did two things a
they put us
They required us to
Re-maneuver the spacecraft several times and exit enter and exit ptc several several times which in itself was not a problem
It was just a additional coordination
uh
coincidentally most of these
particular ptc attitudes were within
30
Certainly 45 degrees of gimbal lock most of the time
So we're looking at the red apple
Good portion of the trip home
But they also some of those attitudes where you actually were not in we were in attitudes and or ptc at these relatively unusual positions
uh
change the
Equilibrium heat load on the spacecraft you could see it in
in RCS
Quad temperatures were all right, but you could see it in helium package temperatures
and most notably you could see it on the change in
Condensation from the tunnel hatch to the forward hatch the tunnel hatch eventually from most of the way home ended up to be very dry
uh and the uh about the second day out on the way home the uh the
For the
Center hatch
uh got
Soak and wet to the point that
Haven't took a dry rag and wiped off some of the
Latch components and some of the
Gearbox components externally not that it didn't do it but there was just that much water on it
I think this is all due to the ptc attitude required for the
Experiments on the way home
Oh it's colder in the spacecraft too. Oh yes it was colder
Not as cold as the commander thought it was. That's right.
Cold enough to warm up
I guess eventually we warmed it up with the ground suggestion of an extra berlin 10th
10th in i think we discussed that yes. Ron all your uh all your uh your roughs map changes uh you're
Talking platform torquins all those uh went very well. I thought that went great. Uh, the uh
And all the way back home as it was just changing attitudes changing attitudes changing attitudes with exception of the EVA day
Which we'll cover here shortly
Yes, I'm EVA
Okay on EVA prep
I think the only thing that we came across was the CMPs uh
Well, let's say you know EVA prep but we really didn't have any
We didn't know anything. I was going to say I'm the CMPs uh
Proper
But the EVA prep went right down the line essentially is all uh well laid off within the
Experiments checklist and we checked things off as we went and uh stayed pretty much on the timeline
We started about a half hour and a half hour and a half
We uh
We started we were half hour early throughout the whole thing and we lost
That half hour and open a hatch just about it and turned to you man exactly on time and I can't remember a small little
Some kind of change in time. How caring?
Conqueror change when we lost that half hour we're doing a conqueror change on a tall
Uh, Ron, I'd like to add that
Post EVA I think one thing that helped us
immensely on what ended up to be I think a very fine uh
entry storage was that
we sort of uh
backed off after the EVA and
and
Took a long good long list at the long range storage as well as the post EVA storage and really effectively started housekeeping clean up the cabin and
Effectively stowing some of the articles that we're not going to be used any further
In a mission for entry
At that time that's our entry storage really started with the post EVA time frame period and I think that really helped us out in the long run
Okay, I think uh, we should mention how we got out of the suits on I think to read out pretty important
Way to get things done
And the only change the only change to the to the
prep and or post was the
Order in which we'd often don't see it's because it was very evident that there were certain
convenient ways
Because of the way the students suits were stowed
And the way people fit into the checklist that we
When we don't the suits the commander
Got down. You can't you got in first first when I did
Then the MP and the in a scene MP got down last and it worked out very fine
Plus the CMP had less work to do in a suit which also aided him in the long run
What we doffed the LMP
Yeah, that was definitely first
Okay, then you done the CDR and then the CMP and that wasn't exactly what it was called for
But that's the way it worked out the best and we stowed our suits in the all-shape bag prior to
putting the center
couch back in
Which was another good decision I believe
It helped in this kid to sit still if that kind of don't shake back. Okay, let's go on down cabin D press
Hatch opening. It was completely
Or the cabin was completely depressed and when I think as soon as I opened the hatch
There was enough
Residual pressure or something inside the spacecraft that it actually tended to pull the house out of my hand
Is bleeding into the cabin all the time she never truly gets through that's right. You never truly get through on the thing but the
Duck valve was still open
and
If I had not been hanging on to the hatch it would have blown it all over or on to give you an idea on that's that's exact
That's not unexpected because it's exactly what we had on a lunar surface
We completely completely dump the lamp and I'd still have to break that hatch
Lose and hold it open about six or eight inches until things just vented and then I could leave go of the hatch
And open it all the way if I didn't it would slam back closed
Oh, yeah different time so it was basically the same thing you got to open it really let things get down to zero
Okay, well when I open the hatch then
all of the
Excuse me
All the little ice crystals and everything started flowing out
Uh
floating by
Something else when floating back when what sure what was but
There's all kinds of little particles and pieces start coming out through the hatch
But I sure didn't see I look specifically for the scissors
I yeah, I didn't see any scissors go out that hatch. I hate to say another one by my watch
I didn't let him win by me
Ron, I'd like to say that they went off the hatch but I sure didn't see him go
And then I caught the one thing and when it started to go by me
Okay, the uh
What's the uh jump was out of the way then you just push the hatch open we had disconnected the
counterboss
With the beat the tool be there so that
We'd lock the hatch in the open position. So I just shove it open and it would be on the
Center position and and locked in the open position with no problem
egress
I had a tendency. I guess today just like any other thing
It seems like you want to float up and I had a tendency to float up against the
MDC and had it consciously
duck and get as close my face as close as I could to the bottom of the hatch
in order to get past the
Get the OPS past the MDC and get on out
TV and dock installation
Work fine. I could hang on with the right hand on the hatch
the very big
D-handle on a hatch and
With the TV pull on my left hand and it worked out real fine just to stick it in there and line it up with the
hop and make sure it was
Locked in or clamped in
And then climbed on up the pole to turn the TV on
or turn the
Dack on
And it was you couldn't see the light. I couldn't see the light on the thing
But you could feel the camera running once you turn it on you could just
Touch that you could feel it feel a vibrant a little bit. The
Lunar Center cassette retrieval. I think that should be on the onboard
On the air ground
takes
As I was describing most everything was going as no problem. The pan camera cassettes were next
No problem on the pan camera cassettes in the pan camera. It's obviously a
bigger mass and it's it's
Quite apparent when you try to move move that big mass around
That it is heavier to weigh more than the other thing. It's easy to move
But it just takes a little more effort to get it started
And you know that if you ever get a start in one direction
It's going to keep on going you have to stop it
So I just
Loot everything real slow try to keep it done to control
Mapping camera cassette
Had the same problem I had in the
In a sim bay c-squared S-squared
Getting the thermal cover off
It stuck underneath the mapping camera laser altimeter
Door
But there's no real problem. I was at the feet on the shoes. Just give it a big jerk and then it finally came off
sim bay inspection
That's all covered in the
onboard I mean there are ground tapes
TV and doctor removal again was real simple just to squeeze the
Deliver and TV came out and it was easy to hang on with one hand and maneuver the
TV around and point it toward the
The moon because I didn't have to worry about trying it into the sun. I tried to
Again hang on to one hand and point the TV around toward the earth
It was well maybe 10 or 15 degrees probably 15 degrees from the sun
And I would try to be a little more accurate on the thing and when I did that then I lost
Kind of effectively really lost control of the
The my body position because I was trying to I think
maneuver the camera
You need both hands to maintain your body control again. So rather than try to
Flights the camera through the center something like that and give up and trying to point the camera out the air
Calm during EVA. Yeah, it was loud and clear for me throughout the noise the hissing of the air flow
I'm sure that was probably kind of over the box circuit circuit
But don't I think anyone had didn't appear to me did anyone had any trouble on the ground
I think one of the big
Advantage here on pitty that one thing we did because it was bothering in the first week
I turned the air box sensitivity down about two notches
And apparently that really improved the conformist the impression. I had that impression from the ground
I don't know if it did if it made any difference at all, but I got the impression that it did help
Calm into the cabin was actually on a rainy trouble understanding you had a hissing in the background, but we did yeah
I thought it sounded much better, and I remember the other flights
Well, our CMP made more noise than
I guess he's normal or it was clear clear
Ingress seemed to me like it was easier than the egress for some reason
hash closing was harder than I anticipated
And I guess maybe this is the same reason is that I must have been exhausting into the cabin all the time
And just out loud he'd the hash would come closed within about an inch of closing on the outer edge
And then it took an effort to pull a house close so that you could activate the
The latching panel
So that you can over get the the latches over center
Of course, once you got the first stroke in the latching how long I got the had
The latches over center then it's really just on the hatch stress
was normal
I mean, as my kind of hear was telling me
All I did was work in the hatch area and
I want to emphasize I think what everybody has always said is that
That you do your best work when you take things slow and easy and just let yourself
Move yourself and small increments to where you want to go yourself out
And I think it's also
useful to have somebody else available to
Push you out on your tether as far as you want to go and put you in
And just easy operation being the rest of everything available there
There was never any feeling that I couldn't have two seconds to get it where I wanted it
Invariably every time I went back inside
I was had this 90 degree disorientation feeling for a few seconds
Until I to perspective of the cabin again and say okay, that's right
And I get back in and then I go back outside and I come back in again and once again
It seemed as if the cabin had rotated 90 something there's no problem. It's just a change of perspective
I guess the biggest problem where I had the sun
You had the sun in your eyes most of the time and
So it made it hard to look in detail and see what major operators doing but if I had to specifically
See details
Oh, I don't want one point. I wanted to make
Also, was it I had no awareness whatsoever never got the feeling that the embellical was tugging on me
Restricting my movements or
Many think I didn't even know it was there and did you observe at any time did the umbilical ever get
Tackle around I think the vehicle was
It was easy to tend and I frankly don't remember a single time when I had the
Clear it there may have been one
Sorry, I have a big impression of one time. I asked maybe I didn't say anything
I just say embellical was was very didn't tend to snake around and it was you seem to have everything you needed on it
Which I didn't even know there. I guess that's the point I was making is it really at being tied to the umbilical does not
We're feeling that it is it is restricting your movement at all
Sudoffing and storage and if we've already discussed that
This is continuing on the EVA part of it, but uh, I don't know this is suit just suit a different
Section your suit-duffing and storage
We've already mentioned the suit-duffing and storage
uh the light flash
Phenomena
Trills were blindfolded for an hour and then never saw a light flash. That was a fine second
Exactly right that kind of way back and
Trying to be doing resting exercise and let me add to the light flash itself be that
The next
I've had evening I guess it was I did see them
fall asleep. I did too
So there was just that period apparently during the actual experiment that I think we discussed the eating
Resting yeah, exercise government already
cabin atmosphere the one thing
That I don't think we've we've ever mentioned yet and I think should be
noted is that they utilized the waste storage vent
To get rid of any odors out of that waste storage compartment
But if you kind of drifted over in that area, it was always a granted you were in that area
You got real close to it. I guess maybe I didn't when you opened the door. That's when you really know
It's cabin generally turned over the atmosphere
In pretty good style. It got saturated sometimes with
With gas and it took a few minutes for once the source that gas was
With plugged up and did a good job of recirculating clean it up. I think it did. I think real good flight plan updates
We're super the flight plan was excellent anywhere. I'll do a minute a moment. We really didn't change any part of attitude. Let's see the
Entry preparation to read it again after EVA and continue off through the next day
And we had very little final storage to do on entry morning
Just those things that we had to leave un-stowed until we got
Of our sleep restraints, so we basically just had to guide the big bags down. I wanted to buy the checklist
And if anything we stayed about five minutes ahead
Separation command module RCS and
picked up from on time
Humanications. I thought that's a couple of minutes. I understand now the ground heard everything we said right on through blackout
Into blackout and then I and it said we came out of black out. They still had a riot
And they could read us
And we could have read them, but they never can't
Order checks that we got a rise in the food set. I don't look at you, but
But we had a lot on me over within seconds of the actual time
And they were all within seconds and you know, I in this
CMS I'd always looked for the 2G when the quarter of I would go out though
I didn't even notice it. Watching something else
I must have been checking the EMS or the
