Spacelog Apollo 13

Houston, 13.

13, Houston. Go ahead.

Okay. We'd like to get the FM up now to look at some inside pictures there.

Okay. Stand by and I'll get a GO on this.

13, Houston.

Go ahead.

That's acceptable, Fred, and meanwhile, when you guys are ready to copy, we've got an MCC-2 pad for you.

Okay. Stand by 1.

Roger that. And also if you can go to P00 and ACCEPT conveniently, we'd like to uplink.

Okay. You've got it.

Okay.

Okay, Joe. You can go ahead with the P30 pad.

Okay. Here we go. MCC-2, SPS/G&N: 63634; plus 0.96, minus 0.23; 030:40:49.00; minus 0021.7, minus 0001.7, minus 0008.0; 080, 164, 326; N/A, N/A; 0023.2, 0:03.5—We'll give you half a second on the burn time because it's so short—0018.5; 44, 135.9, 28.1; and the rest is N/A. Comments: set stars 31 and 23; roll aline 288, pitch 205, yaw 034; no ullage, LM weight 33499, and over.

Okay. MCC-2, SPS/G&N: 63634; plus 0.96, minus 0.23, 030:40:49.00; minus 0021.7, minus 0001.7, minus 0008.0; 080, 164, 326; N/A, N/A; 0023.2, burn time 0:03.5, 0018.5; 44, 135.9, 28.1; and the rest N/A. Set stars 31, 23; roll aline 288, pitch 205, yaw 034; no ullage, LM weight 33499.

Roger. Readback correct. I have two more short comments on them, but I want to wait just a second and make sure I understand them before I pass them to you.

Okay.

Okay, Fred; Houston.

Go ahead.

The two additional comments were just that, first of all, they biased DELTA-V_C by minus 0.34 feet per second based on your EMS null bias cheeks. That's just for information. And the second one also for information is that your targeted pericynthion is 60 miles after this correction.

Okay, understand. For Jack's information the EMS DELTA-V bias is 3.4, and our targeted pericynthion after this maneuver is 60 miles.

That's correct on the pericynthion. The EMS bias is 0.34, very small.

Okay. 0.34 on the EMS DELTA-V bias.

Roger. And —

Hey, Joe, we'll give —

Go ahead, Jack —

We'll give you—we'll give you the read—we'll give you the results of another null bias test for comparative purposes right before the—oh, at the proper time.

Okay. Real fine; and the computer is yours.

Okay, Houston; 13. Are you copying the torquing angles on the P52?

Okay, Jack. Give us a second.

And, 13, Houston. We have them. You can torque them.

Okay, Joe. Time of torquing 29 hours 0 minute 30 seconds.

Apollo 13, Houston.

Go ahead, Joe.

Hey, you've got a new CAPCOM on now with the Black Crew, and we have about three items to give you, Jack.

Okay. Stand by 1. Are these updates or what?

I'm going to give you some high gain antenna angles for TV and the rest is just information, general words.

Go ahead …

Okay. Burn attitude for TV, your pitch and yaw angles are as follows: PITCH minus 1—minus 69, YAW 180, HIGH GAIN.

Okay.

Okay. Second point is that you're GO for MCC-2. Everything's looking good here.

Okay. Real fine.

And the last item's for Jack. Jack, the preliminary indications are that you can get a 60-day extension on your—filing your income tax if you're out of the country.

That's good news. I guess I qualify.

Yes, we were just looking at the map, and you're south of Florida so you're not in the country now. But we wondered how about your car tags. Have you taken care of those?

Yes, I did, as a matter of fact. I think I did!

Known as, “plan ahead.”

Okay. Good.

And, Apollo 13, Houston. Recommend OMNI Alfa until you get to the burn attitude.

Okay, Houston; Apollo 13.

13, go ahead.

Okay, Vance. The EMS DELTA-V pass passive, the results of the no-bias pass in 100 seconds, have been from 100 to 101.5.

Roger. Copy plus 100 to plus 101.5, and that agrees fairly closely with the last one, as I recall.

Okay, Houston. We're at P40 burn attitude. Jim is on the sextant star check, and we do have a star in the sextant.

Roger, Jack. Copy. Very good.

But we couldn't tell you whether it's 44 or not.

Whoops.

Okay, Houston; 13. We're a little bit ahead of ourselves. Do we have a GO to do the fuel cell purge and the waste water dump?
