00:00:06,340 --> 00:00:05,180
standing by now to receive video tape

3
00:00:08,529 --> 00:00:06,350
we've got the flight crew having

00:00:12,220 --> 00:00:08,539
breakfast this morning this was recorded

5
00:00:15,220 --> 00:00:12,230
earlier mission specialist Pierce do it

6
00:00:18,189 --> 00:00:15,230
this is his first trip into space for

7
00:00:21,100 --> 00:00:18,199
mission st s36 also the first trip for

8
00:00:23,740 --> 00:00:21,110
pilot John Casper

9
00:00:26,140 --> 00:00:23,750

28
00:02:39,510 --> 00:02:37,920
and commander Crichton has been asked to

29
00:02:58,690 --> 00:02:39,520
we can figure the orbiter heaters for

start external tank liquid oxygen

45
00:04:27,330 --> 00:04:24,580
pressurization and we just received the

46
00:04:29,670 --> 00:04:27,340
go for that and we begin gaseous

47
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:29,680
nitrogen purges of the main engines will

48
00:04:40,220 --> 00:04:33,570
begin terminating that that activity

49
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:42,380
and pilot Casper has been instructed to

50
00:04:53,070 --> 00:04:50,170
a gaseous oxygen vent alarm is now being

51
00:04:55,750 --> 00:04:53,080
retracted away from the external tank

52

t-minus two minutes 20 seconds and

53
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:09,420

00:05:54,270 --> 00:05:52,690
launch for a launch sequencer will

61
00:06:13,250 --> 00:05:54,280
verify that the main engines are ready

62
00:06:17,870 --> 00:06:16,010
t-minus one minute and Counting the

63
00:06:20,060 --> 00:06:17,880

t-minus 45 seconds and counting all

68
00:06:42,559 --> 00:06:33,850
systems are go for the launch of

69
00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:45,559
t minus 31 seconds and counting we have

70
00:06:49,969 --> 00:06:48,240
a go for autosequence start Atlantis's

76
00:07:46,580 --> 00:07:33,040
program have begun that program puts the

77
00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:50,990
guidance officer three engines now

78
00:07:54,740 --> 00:07:53,310
throttling back as Atlantis passes

79
00:08:08,990 --> 00:07:54,750
through the area of maximum dynamic

80
00:08:14,279 --> 00:08:11,520
three APU looking good all engines

81
00:08:16,649 --> 00:08:14,289
looking good velocity is 1,200 feet per

82
00:08:28,420 --> 00:08:16,659
second atlantis now down range three

83
00:08:36,500 --> 00:08:31,010
crew has received a go at throttle up

84
00:08:40,700 --> 00:08:36,510
all the three engines I got back at 104

85
00:09:31,360 --> 00:08:40,710

dynamic self-service no performance at

89
00:10:26,140 --> 00:10:23,270
the state and the crew has received the

90
00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:26,150
two engine transatlantic abort landing

91
00:10:29,980 --> 00:10:28,160
call which means they could reach that

92
00:10:32,260 --> 00:10:29,990
transatlantic site on two engines if

93
00:10:36,220 --> 00:10:32,270
that were necessary all three engines

94
00:10:39,250 --> 00:10:36,230
are looking good all three AP use

95
00:10:42,310 --> 00:10:39,260
running properly velocity is now 6,000

96
00:10:59,040 --> 00:10:42,320
feet per second Atlantis 86 miles away

97
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:01,960
crew has gotten a message on their

98
00:11:05,620 --> 00:11:03,890
reaction control system however ground

99
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:05,630
controllers believe that is a transducer

100
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:07,730
only and those Jets are not required at

101
00:11:26,070 --> 00:11:10,010
this time if they were required they

102
00:11:33,900 --> 00:11:28,530
this is Mission Control can now see

103
00:11:38,340 --> 00:11:33,910
Atlantis visually at Dryden APU one will

104
00:11:42,620 --> 00:11:40,530
mechanical systems officer reports that

105
00:11:48,350 --> 00:11:42,630
a p1

106
00:11:48,350 --> 00:11:48,360
Atlantis now at 1.6 71,000

107
00:12:37,280 --> 00:11:52,790
over California in about 39 miles away

108
00:12:51,540 --> 00:12:40,710
this is Mission Control velocity now

109
00:12:57,030 --> 00:12:54,350
Atlantis just about a minute from

110
00:13:00,030 --> 00:12:57,040
intercepting the heading alignment

111
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:02,280
mechanical systems officer reports that

112
00:13:23,079 --> 00:13:21,190
chemical assistance officer expect

113
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:23,089
safety you want to be able to support

114
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:35,610
flight dynamics officer reports that

115
00:13:40,050 --> 00:13:37,660
Atlantis looks good coming on to the

116
00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:40,060
heading alignment circle velocity is now

117
00:13:49,850 --> 00:13:44,690
800 feet per second 37,000 feet altitude

118
00:13:54,050 --> 00:13:51,829
and the flight dynamics officer reports

119
00:13:55,579 --> 00:13:54,060
that energy is right on target as

120
00:14:28,340 --> 00:13:55,589
Atlantis comes around the heading

121
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:30,920
velocity now on 700 feet per second

122
00:14:36,389 --> 00:14:33,490
altitude 20,000 feet

123
00:14:50,539 --> 00:14:36,399
atlanta is coming down at about 330 feet

124
00:14:56,260 --> 00:14:53,609
coming in now to the final approach at

125
00:15:11,390 --> 00:14:56,270
about 14,000 feet

126
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:13,670
mechanical systems officer reports ap

127
00:15:18,230 --> 00:15:15,530
you learn still performing all right

128
00:15:43,660 --> 00:15:18,240
velocity is 400 feet per second altitude

129
00:15:48,249 --> 00:15:45,430
this is Mission Control flight dynamics

130
00:15:49,629 --> 00:15:48,259
officer reports Atlantis is lined up

131
00:15:54,980 --> 00:15:49,639
right on the glide slope over around my

134
00:16:39,870 --> 00:16:48,780
not too now about 700 feet

135
00:16:48,790 --> 00:17:03,120

nose gear touchdown

138
00:18:07,630 --> 00:17:59,970
and we'll stop recorded by a mission

139
00:18:14,020 --> 00:18:11,850
Capcom Steve oswal greeted the crew with

140
00:18:26,140 --> 00:18:14,030
congratulations on a great flight guys

141
00:18:30,830 --> 00:18:28,280
this is Mission Control we have the
