When you commented on that BRAVO problem at separation, you were a little 91 00:12:52,540 --> 00:12:59,540 weak. Could you go through what you did after you noticed the talk-back again, please? 92 00:13:13,990 --> 00:13:20,990 CAPCOM We copied the primary and secondary propellant talkback SM RCS BRAVO 1 (garbled). 93 00:13:28,890 --> 00:13:35,890 SC Roger. Roger, that is affirmative and we moved that switch to the open position and 94 00:13:39,670 --> 00:13:46,670 they went back to gray. Over. 95 00:14:00,970 --> 00:14:07,970 PAO This is Apollo Control. We are at 34 minutes away from extraction from extraction from 96 00:14:10,300 --> 00:14:17,300 the lunar module from its adaptor in the third stage of the Saturn. The crew has started 97 00:14:30,209 --> 00:14:37,209 pressurizing the LM. 98 00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:45,519 CAPCOM Apollo 11, this is Houston. Over. 99 00:14:49,790 --> 00:14:51,589 SC Roger. Houston, Apollo 11, go ahead. 100 00:14:51,589 --> 00:14:58,589 CAPCOM Roger. Could you give us some comments on how the transposition docking went? Over. 101 00:14:59,660 --> 00:15:06,660 SC I thought it went pretty well, Houston, although I suspect I used more gas than I've 102 00:15:20,529 --> 00:15:27,529 been using in the simulator. The turnaround maneuver, I went pitch, accel command and 103 00:15:40,690 --> 00:15:47,690 started to pitch up and then when I put the manual attitude pitch back to rate command, 104 00:16:07,209 --> 00:16:14,209 for some reason it, it stopped its pitch rate and I had to go back to excel command and 105 00:16:40,990 --> 00:16:47,990 hit what I thought was an extra proceed on the DSKY key. Then during the course of that, 106 00:16:54,500 --> 00:17:01,500 we drifted slightly further away from the S-IV B than I expected. I expected to be out 107 00:17:43,309 --> 00:17:50,309 about 66 feet and my guess would be I was around a hundred or so and, therefore, I expect 108 00:17:58,149 --> 00:17:59,659 I used a bit more coming back in but except for using a little more gas, and I'd be 109 00:17:59,659 --> 00:18:00,220 interested in your numbers, everything went nominally. 110 00:18:00,220 --> 00:18:00,779 CAPCOM This is Houston. Roger. We copy. 111 00:18:00,779 --> 00:18:01,600 PAO That was Mike Collins giving the description on the transposition and docking. 112 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:01,609 SC This is Apollo 11. Over. 113 00:18:01,609 --> 00:18:01,639 SC Bruce, we're working on the pressurization on the LM now and working off the decal of 114 00:18:01,639 --> 00:18:01,669 the SM LM pressure equalization and we're down to Step 13 where we're waiting for 115 00:18:01,669 --> 00:18:01,700 the cabin pressure to be 5 or it should be roughly 5 before we turn the repress package 116 00:18:01,700 --> 00:18:01,720 O2 valve to FILL. Instead of 5 we're running about 4.4. Over. 117 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:07,049 CAPCOM Ah, Roger. Stand by a second. 118 00:18:07,049 --> 00:18:14,049 SC And, Houston, Apollo 11, we just put the repress package O2 valve to FILL momentarily 119 00:18:30,909 --> 00:18:31,919 there in Step 13 and we have filled the bottles back up partially. What's the pressure reading 120 00:18:31,919 --> 00:18:32,059 on them? 121 00:18:32,059 --> 00:18:32,609 SC We have about 450 PSI in the, in the 3 1-pound bottles. 122 00:18:32,609 --> 00:18:32,879 CAPCOM Stand by a second, please. 123 00:18:32,879 --> 00:18:35,639 SC Roger. Standing by. And the repress package valve is now in the OFF position. What's 124 00:18:35,639 --> 00:18:36,279 the cabin pressure now, Buzz? Cabin pressure is now 4.5. 125 00:18:36,279 --> 00:18:38,259 PAO At 3 hours 46 minutes, velocity is 18,917 feet per second, distance from Earth 9,002 126 00:18:38,259 --> 00:18:38,940 nautical miles. 127 00:18:38,940 --> 00:18:45,940 SC Houston, Apollo 11. We think these readings are within normal tolerances. We just wanted 128 00:18:50,149 --> 00:18:57,149 to get your concurrence before we press down any further with the decals. 129 00:19:02,230 --> 00:19:09,230 CAPCOM Okay, Captain. 130 00:19:14,529 --> 00:19:21,529 SC Ah, Houston, Apollo 11. How do you read? 131 00:19:36,179 --> 00:19:39,269 CAPCOM Apollo 11, this is Houston. Go ahead. 132 00:19:39,269 --> 00:19:46,269 SC LM looks to be in pretty fine shape from about all we can see from here. 133 00:19:47,190 --> 00:19:54,190 CAPCOM Okay, and in reference to your question on this Step 13 on the decal, I understand 134 00:19:54,279 --> 00:20:01,279 that you have used up the contents of the repress O2 and at that time instead of being 135 00:20:02,700 --> 00:20:09,700 up to 5 PSI, you were reading 4.4. Is that correct? 136 00:20:10,609 --> 00:20:14,529 SC Okay. 4-4, yes, sir. 137 00:20:14,529 --> 00:20:20,070 CAPCOM Okay, and you want to know if you can go ahead and use additional oxygen to bring 138 00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:21,159 the command module up to 5,.0 and continue the equalization? Over. 139 00:20:21,159 --> 00:20:26,899 SC We think it's within normal balance, Bruce, but we just wanted your concurrence 140 00:20:26,899 --> 00:20:33,899 before we press on with this procedure. 141 00:20:34,570 --> 00:20:39,769 CAPCOM Roger, Apollo 11. Go ahead. 142 00:20:39,769 --> 00:20:44,840 SC Okay. We're pressing on with the procedure. 143 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:50,340 CAPCOM And 11, Houston. We have a request for you. On the service module, secondary 144 00:20:50,340 --> 00:20:57,340 propellant fuel pressurization valve, as a precautionary measure, we'd like you to 145 00:20:57,909 --> 00:21:04,309 momentarily cycle the 4 switches to the close position and then release. As you know, we 146 00:21:04,309 --> 00:21:10,450 have no TM or talkback on these value positions and it's conceivable that one of them might 147 00:21:10,450 --> 00:21:14,359 also have been moved into a different position by the shock of separation. Over. 148 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,850 SC Okay. Good idea. That's being done. 149 00:21:16,850 --> 00:21:23,669 CAPCOM Houston, roger.
