030 01 09 41 SPT SPT at O0 - 01:09 debriefing J0P 13 on GAmma Vel.

Made the maneuver to there, made the maneuver out.
Could not really see anything. I made a couple of
maneuvers around to try to ... guess where it may
be. Used persistence image scope and the - on the
WHITE LIGHT DISPLAY, as well as Just visual WHITE
LIGHT DISPLAY. Used different settings of CONTRAST
and BRIGHTNESS. And I couldn't find anything, so
I ended up going back to Sun center and making the
0.03 of a degree Y maneuver out. Started the
exposures at 00:26 and ended them at 00:57. Changed
the 55 GRATING at 00:45.

030 01 lO 41 SPT I gave the exposures for - one exposure for 52.
Unfortunately, when I first did it I had - was
still in the TV position and didn't realize it until
I started it. Apparently, unless you've got a
solar corona staring at you, it's very tough for
me to realize I'm at the TV position. There's no
difference between TV and - and mirror position
on the display, unless you really have something
to look at. So I did that one over again. But I
blew a couple of frames of film there which I am
-- sorry for. Everything else was nominal in terms
of maneuvers.

030 03 51 15 _DR This is the CDR at 03:50 Zulu. On the last day
pass, I went on a photographic rampage; left the
Hasselblad and the Nikon IR camera smoking behind
me. Started out over central China, and the first -
well, just a second.

030 03 52 09 CDR Let me go back one rev, and that is to a time of

01:i_ Zulu. This was Just prior to a medical con-
ference, and I did not get this data logged and
voice recorded. However, at 01:14 Zulu, as we
were passing over Mongolia, we noticed a - a very
definite fault line through the mountains near
Ulan Bator, Mongolia. And we also - it also
appears that on the southern end of this large
fault, it looks like it may be a graben. So
therefore we took a Hasselblad picture, ntnnber 165,
at f/4.0, 1/250. It was Just - it was early morn-
ing - very low Sun angle.

030 03 52 57 CDR Then at 01:19, we flew over Vladivostok; we took

a picture; that was frame number 166 of the - of
the Hasselblad, and these were Charlie X-ray 18.
This was taken at 5.6, i00 millimeter at 1/250.
And the main point of interest here is all the
ice in the harbor at Vlad - at Vladivostok. Then
at 01:20, south of Vladivostok, on the Chinese/North
Korean border is a huge mountain and very defin-
itely a volcanic feature, with a crater on the
top. I think it's shown on the map as a 9003-foot
mountain on the border. That was taken - that's
frame number 167. That was taken at - also at
5.6, 1/250. So that pretty much covers that day
pass.

030 03 53 51 CDR Then this last day pass that we Just finished
started out over central China.
 3561

030 03 54 01 CDR My purpose in looking out the window at this time

was to try to get the HH154-Alfa 2, optional HH
Earth observations assignment that we had at that
time. It was 02:57 Zulu. Most of the southern
part of Chink was clouded over. However the
Shanghai River basin was fairly clear with clouds
to the south. And I took IRll on the Nikon, IR
magazine number ii, frames 32, 33, 34, and 35 at
f/8 with a 55-millimeter lens, 1/500.

030 03 54 42 CDR Then as we moved on to - to the southwest - cor-

rection, southeast at 02:58, I took two frames
in the IR of the southwest Taiwanwetland. These
were frames 36 and 37, taken at f/8 and f/ll,
respectively, 55-millimeter lens, 1/250. Then
as we moved on to the south, we went over Ulithi,
I believe, atoll. I'm pretty sure it was Ulithi.
And just south of Ulithi, I espied, underneath
the water, what I would take to be a seamount
or a coral reef. The water was not breaking over
it. You can see the color of it under the water,
but it was not causing the water to break. It
was much like what you see around the Bahamas
under the water,but not - not comingup through
the water.

030 03 55 33 CDR This was Charlie - taken on Charlie X-ray 44,

frame number 23, Nikon 300, with a 4.5 f-stop,
1/lO00. And at 03:09 I took two pictures of
Bougainville in Solomons Islands, 5.4, 1/1000.
Those were frames 22 and 21 of Charlie X-ray 44.
Then at 03:10, I took two more frames, one of
them of Level - Vela Levella, and one of them of
New Georgia Island. These are frames 20 and 19,
5.4, 1/1000 on Charlie X-ray 44. Okay, then I
eased up and let it coast for a while. And as
we approached New Zealand, I looked to the south
from where we were. And you could see the entire
North Island of New Zealand. So since the Hassel-
blad 100 was nearly out of f_]m and had wide field
of view, I went ahead and shot frames number 168,
169, and [1170 on Charlie X-ray 18. This was
done at 03:19 Zulu. Picture was New Zealand,
North Island at f/ll and 1/250.

030 03 57 04 CDR Now there's several very interesting features on

these three photographs I took. There's consid-
erable coastal blooming on the northwestern coast
3562

of the North Island. And one of the streaks of

blooming extends considerably out to the east.
I said northwestern, I meant northeastern corner
of North Island. And it - it heads out toward
the Chatham Islands. There is also about five
fires on New Zealand, North Island. They look
to me to be control fires; they were in areas
that was habited - inhabited. So therefore I
would not consider them to be wild fires but
probably control burning being done on North
Island in New Zealand.

030 03 57 51 CDR Again, these were frames 168, 169, and 170. Then
as we moved between New Zealand and the Chatham
Islands, I saw very faint traces of the New Zea-
land Current. I did not feel that the - the
traces were strong enough in color or - or inten-
sity that they could be captured on film. However,
I tried one more frame of Charlie X-ray 18 which
was the Hasselblad at 03:20. And that's frame num-
ber 171, f/ll, 1/250. And heaven only knows if
that one even made it. But think it was the end
of the roll anyway, so I went ahead and took it.

030 03 58 29 CDR There's considerable, very faint blooming between

New Zealand and Chatham Islands. And the - the
streaking that we see seems to be east-west streak-
ing as if it were coming out between the gaps -
between North and South Island, New Zealand, headed
towards Chatham Islands, or maybe vice versa. At
any rate, it was a east-west streaking with eddies.
Okay, now as I got over onto the eastern side of
the Chatbsm Islands I was now out of film with the
IR camera, as well as the Hasselblad. And I saw
some spectacular blooming on the eastern side of
the Chatham Islands. The - the strangest blooming
I saw was about equidistant - the same distance
that Chatham Islands is from New Zealand. That is,
if you get on a map and measure the distance from
Chatham Islands to New Zealand and then flip your
ruler and go east of Chatham Islands the same dis-
tance, you'll get to this area of blooming.

030 03 59 29 CDR This area of blooming ve - very definitely shows

eddies of current. And I won't even look at the
current chart in order to say which way the cur-
rents are going.
 3563

030 03 59 42 CDR But the - the eddies are in a form of "C's." If

you're sitting with you head to the north and your
right - right hand to the east and looking down,
the "C" is open to the right and the eddies that
you see - the curved serpentine current boundaries
that you see, are "C's" and they're parallel "C's"
going from east to west. So it looks llke - the
Chatham Islands - it looks like R3most a huge wake
on the eastern side of the Chatham Islands, or
something like that. I can't quite picture the
flow pattern there and how it would do that sort
of thing.

But at any rate, if you picture curly "C's" with

the opening to the right as you're sitting facing
north and looking - or with your head to the north,
and you're looking down at the water, that's about
what it looks like. I Just regret that I didn't
have a camera suitable for taking a picture, but
I had completely shot my wad on both the - both
of those cameras. Just wasn't anything left to
get it with.

030 04 00 45 CDR But, in intensity, I would say that the blooming

I've seen around New Zealand and the Chatham
Islands are no where near as intense as the Falk-
land Current. I would say they're probably about
the same intensity as what we see over in the
Humboldt Current going up on the western side of
Chile.

got - got to you again or something.

CDR Okay.

CDR Okay, CDR at 12:22 Zulu. Subject M487-Delta [sic]

subjective evaluation guide number 3 and tool
inventory.

030 12 22 39 CDR Tool kit number 1 and number 2: I would essent-

ially rate them as very good - between adequate
and very good. I thought of another area ...
area ... what sort of tool I felt was missing and
I indicated I felt we needed a drill up here and
I thought we needed a soldering iron and a little
bit later on, that we needed electrical wiring
equipment. That is an electric clipper and crimp-
ers. And of course ... might JusU as well throw
in a selection of electrical splices. I - what-
ever they call those ... All of the good things
that go on the end of electrical wires - wires
in repair. The S183 light meter is a simple
electrical instrument ... and I had an electrical
... S009. _[nother little bit of debriefing there
with another tool item: I think it would have
been good to have some files. Also a roll of emery
cloth would have been good ... get emery cloth on
a roll much about the same size as ... gray tape
that we have. And a roll of that would have been
very handy ... occasion - several occasions when
I wished I had some emery papers Just to kind of
polish something up. So a couple of grades of
emery paper ... not emery paper, but emery cloth.

030 12 24 45 CDR The repair kit, the S190 maintenance kit, the
M512 tool: I haven't used any of those, so I
can't really - I can't really say too much about
that for you. And I think probably Bill's dis-
cussion of the S190 maintenance kit is better
than mine. So I'm not even going to try to do
that. The repair kit, I have not needed to use.
And quite frankly, I haven't even looked at it
since I've been up here. I don't have time to
look at it this morning ... I've got so many other
things going and that would take a lot of extra
time. The EMU maintenance kit, I think, is in
good shape. I can't think of anything extra.
We've had no requirements for anything other than
what - what's been in here. In fact, we haven't
even had ... water and ... needs a little bit of
thread on it or one experiment or another ... all
we have. I always meant to get around to modify-
ing my sports wrist bracelet, to a wrist watch
 3565

because my wrist is very small and there isn't a

short Velcro wristwatch band that fits my wrist.
They're all too long. What I was going to do was
cut it off - cut about 3 ... off of it and sew on
the Velcro ... Velcro ... But I Just never got
around to it.

030 12 26 40 CDR Miscellaneous support items, adequacy of work sites

(cough) - adequacy of work sites: I guess that ...
there is no real good place to fasten somthing
down and work on it. When we lost that workbench,
I think we lost one real valuable piece of equip-
ment. I don't know much about the workbench. I
don't know how adequate it was ... and ideal size
and height we wanted ... forward compartment ...
better accomodations on the top of that for fast-
ening things down ... Just don't have it. So every-
thing in the area of work sites, essentially, has
been ad-libbed. A case in point is the charcoal
canister ... tried to work on tip of the waste man-
agement there and Just had little or no ....
capabilities.

_- 030 12 28 00 CDR And finally we realized that you could do a whole

lot better Job if we just left the canisters right
in the locker where they were ... right up there
•.. about a - about a third I think ... proper .•.
So there's a case in point• Adequacy of lighting:
I've never had any complaints about lighting in
the workshop .... I guess the only time we have
lighting problems is when one person is in the
airlock and we got a lighting •.. forced to look
outside.

030 12 28 59 CDR So lighting, on the whole, I think it is very good.

Adequacy of the onboard data package: I think
it's pretty adequate. I - I'm trying to think ef
what we could have done to improve it, and there
really wasn't a whole lot we could have done to
the package itself but ... up here ... and we
know ... have had to come up on the teleprinter
and had to use an enormously large number ... of
paperwork. And I don't see how we coul@ avoid
that. I talked about the desirability ... and
that certainly - certainly would have described
the data package ... for a lot of the procedures

F
3566

030 12 30 07 CDR Adequacy of the onboard data package: ... good.

For the most part - the most part, it's pretty
adequate. I think that the areas where our flight
training turned out to not be adequate was mainly
in the time critical and the time ... I think the
biggest mistake ... learning to work - work oper-
ations ... because that's really what ... up here
more than anything else. Essentially writing ...
getting all the work ... it's really ... It got
to where we didn't need ... checklist ... through
a lot of the stuff very quick .... The preflight
prep for maintenance tasks, very frankly, I think
would be adequate.

030 12 B1 35 CDR Okay, maintenance tasks, solids replacement -

scheduled replacement items, solids traps: I
won't mention that because Bill's going to do
that. Mol sieve charcoal canisters ... PPCO 2
inlet/outlet cartridges, ... excellent to very
good. I do not ... Okay, adequacy of work sites:
I said poor ... adequacy of that as I said, good.
Adequacy of the on-board data package: ... good.
I Just think during the next generation of space
flights, ... onboard data, I think we ought to
make it much more ... quarters and onboard flight
plan. Adequacy of preflight maintenance tasks,
all right .... solids traps ... not applicable.
Mol sieve char canisters, not applicable. PPCO 2
inlet/outlet cartridges: I'd say is adequate but
... PPCO 2 cartridges, the same, no big problems,
Just a Sot of ... pull the cartridge out - the
tape cartridge out, you put it in ... old cart-
ridge ... canister ... It takes a lot of mAnipu-
lation ... simple adequate. EVA/IVA gas - cool
gas separator, that really is ... WMC vent filter,
and char canister: No problems. I would say very
good. I don't think we've had any problem ...
by ... particular items ... no problem at all ...
Fecal collection filter: NA, I have not done that.
Urine separators: NA, I have not had to do that.

030 12 3_ 16 CDR By the way, ... urine separators right now, I guess
a few words ... I suppose that we should pass the
word on that both Bill and I have had a few cases
ofurea crystals forming around the seals. It goes
all the way around the urine separation. It's
 3567

not extensive, but it's there ... you know, m-ybe

in another l0 to 30 days it would ... the separ-
ator a little bit more ... emptied out. What it -
what it frankly looks like is - if anybody's ever
done any washing machine repairs, it looks like
what the pump ... pump seals look like on a wash-
ing machine after a couple of years. When the
corrosion's too thick around the pump seal, well
then it's time to change the pump. And that's
just about what your urine separator is beginning
to look like. I'll ... this urine separator stuff
on another tape, ... it's relatively ... Urine
separator changeout itself, though I have not done.

030 12 35 37 CDR Scheduled cleaning items, 0WS air mix - air mix-
ture chamber screens: I guess excellent to very
good. No problems ... a nice flat area so that
you can vacuum ... problem. WMC vent filter was
... I think it would have been better if we hadn't
gotten Calfax ... Coolant was 4 or 5 Calfax ...
been a whole lot better and quicker ... Okay,
AM/OWS circulation filter screens: No problems
there. Those were quite - they're quite accessi-
F ble. Unscheduled replacement items - -

CDR What happened, Bill? What'd you do? What is 190

doing? Where's the procedures? I haven't seen
them.

030 12 40 01 CDR 030 at 12:15, XUV and WLC. Bill, what did you do?
I cycled it yesterday and it didn't do any good.
(Laughter) It's black magic.

CDR Okay, unscheduled replacement items: Van - fans,

the fan module was just a simple ... no big thing.
I guess the biggest single problem - I did not
have to cope with it, but Bill had more trouble
getting them out of the launcher thing - the
launcher ... replacing ... And I'm sure he ought
to have several things to say about that.

CDR Yes. Okay. Bill just happened by as I was men-

tioning that, and he asked me to mention one thing
and that is that the - putting the used fans, the
ones - the fans that we want to retain back into
the same place that we got the new ones out of,
the launcher ... was a real bear. And I remember

f
3568

I helped a little bit with that too. Obviously,

those launcher things were designed to be taken
off once_ and that's probably ... And in this
particular case, we had ... this may be due to
the fact that the fan still was back in the dome
locker. So there - there's a point there where
design ... designed for one type of ...

030 12 40 29 CDR Lights are very easy to swap out. Valves, NA.
Seals: I haven't had a chance to use seals.
Light .... I can't think of any other replacement
items right offhand. I keep getting ... Well,
for the most part, I think the maintenance tasks
have been reasonably ... The one I've done, I
haven't had any ... unscheduled repair items:
I've done an unscheduled S183 repair; I did a
S019 where ... required cutting and clipping wires
and splicing wires. And I've already told you
how I felt about that ... other tools it would
have been a much - a much more professional Job.
It would have been a lot - probably a lot more
reliable. We've done unscheduled repair on the
Mark I exerciser and that turned out to be a
rather ... job. I've already talked about exer-
cises and now ... a complete redesign on exercisers.
That is really needed in order to do our - given
the full range of exercise, this particular exer-
ciser has been - has broken on us twice. And I
kind of ... critislse ... And it's difficult ...
get it to wind up in the right place ... going to
have to do is, bug out now. If I think of any
other items in this area I'll go ... on, and ...
And if I continue to think of tools, I'll ...

of activities between passes. I could not find
the three bright points as well defined as I saw
yesterday, and I'm sure that you've seen by now
on the XUVNDNITOR. That's been put on the VTR.
One of those bright points, I believe, is now being
called active region 37. I did go over in that
area and ROLL with the horizons/ slit tangent to
these bright points, although the third one was not
very well defined at all on one of them was now
an active region. Itried to work that area though,
as sort of a test line as was outlined on the pad.
We discussed it yesterday. Did eight mini-MARs,

maximum at 0645. In oxygen VI it was a maximum
around 600.

not much more than a step. After I did that, I
did step around a little bit more and found a
second in oxygen VI of 500 down at 0h31 mirror

missed it the first time, or maybe it had changed,
I'm not sure which.

over the northeastern - the hump of South America,
I looked for some signs of - of faulting and, of
course, with HHII9 Alfa-l. The area was fairly
heavily clouded, scattered to broken clouds
throughout. I did, however, see Bahia de S_o
Marcos and Parnaiba. And took a 300-millimeter
picture of each of those. Parnaiba has a pretty
interesting looking pink - what looks like culti-
vated patterns nearby. The color was more inter-
esting than anything else. These photos are on

with the Nikon 300, frame 14, 5.6 over - and
1/1000. And then I swapped lenses real quick

there's no reason why I didn't have it on there.
And when I hit the switch to ON - I don't recall
a double snap.

had sc_ething to do with it?

i PLT I don't know.

030 17 07 21 PLT There was only one brief sequence of ALTIMETER usage.
So we didn't miss a whole lot of data. Of course,
' it could have been real important, but I - I still
am at a loss to understand that. They must figure
there's something wrong with it down on the ground,

when was it? Yes, that's it; I sure did. I missed
it. I set 02:04 and I turned it off around 6. So

reading at 64.

cc 64.

PLT Roger.

CC Did A-1 change any at all?

PLT Negative, and I've lost my READY light. Do you

want me to switch to STANDBY for 15 seconds?

CDR You want me to look at the antenna?

030 17 15 56 PLT Yes, it wouldn't hurt.

PLT Jerry's going to look at the antenna down there.

PLT Oh, he's got a hot mike, so - -

CDR Okwf, well, I'll - I'll get off if I could Just

get this - umbilical untethered.

CC Okay. You can go- -

PLT Okay. The READY light is out.

CC - - You can go ahead and go to STANDBY on the

ALTIMETER and EREP, STOP.

030 17 16 15 PLT Okay; EREP, STOP.

PLT Okay, do tape recorder depletion. Oh, well, I

guess we're not hurting too bad anyway, then.

CDR Hey, Crip, what seems to be the problem with the

antenna? We keep getting these things they want
us to do but nobody tell us why.
 3587

CC I don't know - the thing isn't working properly,

apparently, and we haven't been able to figure out
exactly what's wrong. So let me see if I can get
scme good words for you.

CDR Okay, maybe we can do their little S193 test over

again for them. And maybe do it while we're in
air-to-ground, in contact with you folks.

030 17 16 57 PLT Yes, if you had scmebody, you know, could ask
questions or something, because I was watching
it move and it was -

CC You didn't - You didn't notice anything wrong with

it when you were doing the test out there, right?

030 17 17 lO PLT Well, Crip, I didn't know what to look for to say
what was wrong and what was right. I described
the discrete movements of the antenna and the -
the mode they had it set up in - it was - the
antenna was going all the way to the right and
then ccmlng back to roughly n_]1 in three incre-
ments. The first two increments were the whether -
rather brisk, and the last one was - It started
out sort of sluggish and then Just sort of wiggled
its way over to null - nadir.

CC Which - which was it? Was it right?

030 17 17 _& PLT Yes, I - I was looking the wrong way. It was
actually pointed to spacecraft right looking at
plus X - Z-LV -

CC Okay. It didn't - -

PLT The first call I gave you.

CC Roger. It didn't go all the way to the other side.

It was just going between - sort of center and
to one side.

030 17 17 58 PLT That's correct.

030 17 18 01 CC Okay, we're about 30 seconds fram LOS, and we're

going to be out of your hair a good long while
here. We'll see you over Goldstone in about an
hour and 4 minutes away at 18:22. The reason that
we're concerned - Well, the altimeter apparently

prompt next time.

030 19 23 40 CDR CDR at 19:2 - coming up on 2h Zulu. In between

S073 mark and operations here, I am going to try
to debrief a bunch of photos and observations that
I've made as we come down over southern California.
At - about 18:26, I began taking Nikon 300 pictures.
I started in the southern end of the San Joaquin
Valley, and I tried to overlap them. I took 9 or
i0 exposures. I tried to overlap these exposures
as I looked down at the Sierras and then across
I don't know what this range of mountains is that
comes across the southern end of the San Joaquin
Valley. And then down the coast range and I - I
got a lot of the desert area around - oh, Tehachapi
3590

and the Edwards Air Force Base, ... and that area.
And on down until we started hitting clou_s Just
north of - of ... However, I think I got pretty
good coverage if - if I Just wasn't going too fast
and wiggling the camera too much. All the exposures
were taken-5.6, 300-millimeter lens, 1/1000. And
they were taken with frames 26 and 28 and that's
when I ran out of film. Charlie X-ray 44, and
frames nt_nber 8 down through - less than zero.
And that's how that one stands. We've got a lot
of fairly good photography, I hope. Okay, and then
we moved on down to BaJa California. I had to
convert over to the Hasselblad so I could be
rather restrained when I took my pictures. And
stand by for about 15 seconds here, and I'll get
back with you on this one here, for S073 is coming
up on 19:26. Stand by -

030 19 26 00 CDR MARK. That's termination of exposure number 2.

Camera is cocked. Exposure number 3, pointing
for a ROTATION of ... turn counterclockwise.
4.9 to 0.9; 0.9 is locked and TILT is still 30,
another T-minute exposure starting at 19:2T.

CDR Stand by -

030 19 27 00 CDR MARK. Okay I have started exposure number 3 on

frame number 46. It's on Bravo Victor 42. Okay,
getting back to the Earth observations, I took
two Hasselblad pictures in the Gulf of California.
I was - That's not rlght. I took three pictures.
Okay, the first picture up - almost at the Colorado
River, probably lO0 miles south of the mouth of
the Colorado River. There was a real - real clear
green eddy, a plankton eddy up there. Took a
picture of that, and then the next one down was
over on the Mexico side of the Gulf. There's an
island up fairly close to the coastline and be-
tween the island and the coastline, we had a
Venturi [sic] effect set up. The current was
really moving the sedimentation and plankton
pattern around. And it made a rather striking
picture; took one there. First picture I took
up at the Gulf near the Colorado was number -
number ll. Okay, the islands - the clouds were on,
I guess, the - the island where we had the venturi(?)
effect, the island and the coast of Mexico. And
z-- 3591

that was frame number 12. They were both taken f -

f/ll, 1/250, and then rrsme number 13 was taken
in sunglint. That's the very southern tip of
BaJa California. The idea here, the sungllnt was
quite pronounced and I was getting a - a - a -
good shot of the - the current - the current feathers
you could see around the southern tip of BaJa.

030 19 30 08 CDR Okay, and moving on now, there was also a subtrop-
ical Jet coming across the middle of BaJa California.
And in between m_ - right, after I - well, in be-
tween my blooming in northern part and the sun@lint
in the southern part, Bill took the Hasselblad and
took two pictures of the subtropical Jet, as we
came across the center of Ba_a California. And
his frames were nm_,ber 13 and l_. Let's - let's
recap here. I'm getting all hung up on numbers.
ll and 12 are the blooming; and the sungliut is
number 16; the subtropical Jet, frames number 14
and 15. And that takes care of all of those.
Subtropical Jet pictures Bill took at f/8, 1/250.
Okay, so that takes care of Charlie X-ray h5 -
Charlie X-ray 45 on the Hasselblad cassette number.
_- ii and 12 were blooming in the Gulf of California;
13 and 14 - 13 and l_, subtropical Jet; number 15,
and sun@lint at the tip of Ba4a California; and
number 16 ...

030 19 B2 03 CDR Okay, so that was it for the BaJa California area
and the Gulf of California. So then I went back
to my S073 work. And by the way, this opportunity
where we missed again - our opportunity to look
at the Gal_pagos - we got busy inside ... here,
looking out the window and Just flat missed our
look at the Gal_pagos. There're a lot of clouds.
l'm not for sure we could have seen it at any rate ...
so we missed that. Coming up again at Montevideo
•.. 50. We're coming up over Montevideo and Just
looking right smack out Rfo de la Plata toward the
Bea. Rfo Paran_ River - R_o Paran_ was Sust flow-
ing red, absolutely red. And it was a very deep
rusty red, like a lot of that red ... soll was
being blown . washed down. That's the first time
I've seen that river run that red. They must've
had some real rains around there recently. And
they really flushed the sedimentation down the Rfo
Parang. The Ecuador River, that's the other river
that peaks in there Just upstream from Montevideo
3592

and Buenos Aires, was much - not any silt in that

at all. Okay, stand by. I've got an S073 exposure
to take care of here and I'll come with handheld
Earth observations. Okay coming up on termination
of the third exposure. Stand by -

030 19 34 01 CDR MARK. Termination at 34• Right now we're changing

the ROTATION to 109•9• Fourth exposure is at ...
TILT of 28.6, in and locked. It starts at 36.
•.. on ROTATION ... 20 seconds to START ....
Stand by -

030 19 36 00 CDR MARK .... frame number - exposure number 4,

8 minutes ... 44 ... terminate exposure. All right
then that means getting back to Earth observations
handheld photography. I remarked as we were coming
up on Montevideo, the Ri6 de la Plata - not the
Rfo Paran_ - the Ri6 Paran_ was running quite red.
And so I took that picture and what I tried to
include in that picture was the boundary of the
red silt and the blue of the ocean. And it was
rather striking to me to see the red and not get
all the way out past the headland of Rfo de la
Plata river mouth. That is to say, the blue ocean
was - was holding back ... silt. Okay, and that
was frame number 16 of Charlie X-ray 45, the Hassel- .
blad, f/8, 1/250. And then I began to get excited
because as I could see further out to sea, I could
see the confluence of the equatorial current and
the Falkland Current. I could see all of the
plankton blooming and streaks as we did before•
But it appeared to be much - much more extensive,
to go quite a ways off to the southeast. And the
more I waited and watched, the more interested
I got, because it's - it's the area covered by
this confluence, this plankton surface inter -
intertwining with two completely different colors.
It's tremendousl As I looked down to the south
toward Bahia Blanca and Golfo de San Juan [sic], I
could see very brilliant streaks - fluorescent green -
streaks of water, very brilliant ... Falkland
Current was really, really strong and plankton very,
very strong. Now out beyond the mouth of the Rfo
de la Plata where you have the confluence, we
had curly eddies surfacing ... looking areas ...
in all directions. And as I told the CAP COMM
over the air-to-ground, it looked like a surreal-
ist painting because we had the darker green coming
 3593
f_

down from the north, we had the lighter green

mixed in from the south, and we had some of these
dull, reddish looking plankton green mixed in with
it. And it - it was a beautiful pattern. I - the
trouble was, now in this particular area, the green
becomes more subdued and I hope that the Hassel-
blad has got enough dyaamic ... and can pick that
up .... shot the Hasselblad. Starting at about
18:51 Zulu going to 18:54 Zulu moving on out to
sea. And I Just kept seeing more and more of the
surfacing plankton occurring ... pictures of the
plankton.

030 19 39 37 CDR And they were taken at f/ll, 1/250. And the -
I can't - I can't honestly give you a direction
because - you know, I think I know the way the
currents come together there. But the eddy pattern
here was so complete, so - so ... it was going
along the coast, there really isn't any west trend
or anything like that because it's going - it mixed
up like a ... And as I told air-to-ground, it
looked to me like it extended out 1000 miles.
Okay, now I want to get back to BaJa California.
•.. we ... most of our interest down there and
handheld lll, I think it is, I had indicated that
I was interested - I - I was through looking at
the Agua Blanca Fault and that I was going to try
to concentrate my visual attention to the linear -
linear material that extends down ... And try as
I might, I had a very difficult time ... very
strong northern or north-northwest, southbound
linear pattern.

030 19 41 16 CDR I think maybe the - the reason was because ...
sunlight. It might be a - at a narrow beta angle
or - or darn near that because, like I said earlier,
I could see sunglint in the water• So I think
that probably makes it linear features number 5
until ... and I think it's because of the lighting
of the Agua Blanca Fault was absolutely ... It -
it Jtu_pS out at you, it seems like.

030 19 42 12 CDR That's really the way that I realized ... Nikon 300
that I had finally gotten out of southern California
and was in BaJa, because I was looking through
the viewfinder getting ready to snap the picture
but when it comes, I was out of film. And I saw
the "K" on the ground ... Aqua Blanca Fault ...
3591,

crossfault. Well, Lee, I hope the next time I

get in close to BaJa that the Sun angle will be
a little different and I can say a little more
about those linear features, but right now I can't
say a thing.

030 19 42 50 CDR ... this is the CDR ... about 1 minute and I'll
be back ...

030 19 43 33 CDR This is the CDR again. Let me follow up on that

Agua Blanca Fault ... about 30 seconds ago. I
don't want you to think that you can see nothing
when you look down there. We could see some linear
sorts features. The thing is, the Sun angle was
so bad you really couldn't see it as much as you
wanted to. Okay, S073, we're Just about ready to
terminate exposure. Stand by - Oh, I've got another
minute to go. No, I don't. Stand by -

030 19 44 06 CDR MARK it. And that's at 19:44 Zulu. And that
terminates S073 for now. I'll be breaking down
the camera and putting on ... lens ... operation.
S073, the exposures then, were 48 - frames 48, 44 -

on 82A. And I tried to throw in a shopping list
with a - I don't even remember what the number is.
But I was going to do a - I did a PATROL, SHORT,
S056. And since I was at 1153 and looking at
oxygen VI in DETECTOR number 3, I went up to active
region 38, the new active region that's warmer
than most, and that's where I did the PATROL, SHORT.
And I did a couple mini-MARs at i153 and I used
only DETECTORs i, 2, and 3. I see by the paper
I could have used 4 also, but it looked like 6
and 7 were a waste of time for 1153. Although
now that I think of it, you folks are using 6 and
7 - You folks are using 6 and 7 on the Sun centered
work. There doesn't appear any use for it there.
Anyway, I did a couple of mini-MARs using DETEC-

air gap; front plate air gap, quarter-inch thick
then the agar. Compartment 2, this gap was almost
1/2 inch, and the agar was not on the front plate
that we took off. And all the other compartments
were nominal.

They were of roll clouds taken at 16:_7, 16:47:30,
and 16:48. They were on the east side of the
Rockies as we came across for the EREP maneuver
today. We had not had - we did not have the ETC
running at the time. They were frames 1 through
6, three sets of stereo. They're excellent
examples of roll clouds. There was about, in
one instance, _ or 5 roll clouds in a row,
length/diameter ratio of 5 or 6 or so. They
were taken at ll-1/2 - or ll plus a stop and
100 millimeter on the Hasselblad, 1/250 of a

river mouth interesting from the standpoint of
the effluents, the _,nunt of sediment carried
out of - by the river, but also there were some
very long wavelengths of pronounced waves which
happened to show up in the sunglint. And these
waves were not parallel to the shore, but per-
pendicular to the shore.

South _m_rica. And it Just appeared through
the clouds, some red staining which ran along
the coastline and - ran parallel to it. One
end, the part fUrther south, tended to extend
outward. I did not see any plankton blooming
associated with the red staining at all. First
time I have ever seen it of that nature. As I
said, there was only a seal I amount of it visi-
ble beneath the clouds - or through the openings
in the clouds. But from the way it was situated,
I could - I would assume that there was a fair

coming stateside pass, which I figured would be
pretty busy with talking about the EREP. Wanted
to remind you guys of - to - in preparation for
the press conference, to refer to the message that
you -we checked out the ccmmwith a while ago.
Also, the TV-27 in the TV Ops Book, there are a
couple of switches in there that do not appear in
either page - and should be - need to be sure and
verify. One is the VIDEO select switch which is
presently in ATM. It should be in TVprior to the
press conference, and that can be put there any
time from here on in. And also, on your way down
to the wardroom, in preparation for the press
conference, be sure that all the TV input stations
north of the wardroom are - are OFF.

031 15 42 09 CC SPT, Houston. I'm not real sure that I understood

the question that you asked about S063. We do want
the first eight frames taken Just as it's listed
there on the pad and also including the remarks
that follows the data, but perhaps I'm confUsed.
3622

•SPT Okay, so far, on the first pass and all of the

second pass, except for the first eight frames,
we're taking pairs - that is, all o_ the same spot.
That means you only get one visible exposure for -
for each. Here they say they still want to take
filter pairs, but not necessarily on the same spot.
Does that mean that I have to come back and start
tracking again? Initially *** second visible
exposure with each - with each of the UV exposures,
or do they want me to Just move back enough in
order to pick up 8 seconds more?

031 15 43 01 CDR RANGE, 7_ at h3.

CC What they' d like -

SPT They're calling them filter pairs, and they're

not even pairs if you start tracking initially
on each one of them. Then it's Just a independent
set of data.

CC Roger, Ed; I understand. Stand by.

031 15 43 42 CC SPT, Houston. It turns out that the word "pairs"

for those eight frames is somewhat of a misnomer.
We do realize that they are not on the same sites
and we do not require that you go back and retrack
them to get the other filter on the same site.

SPT Okay, we don't have to go back in order to get

another visible exposure. Is that affirm?

CC That 's affirmative, Ed.

SPT Frames 7 and 8: I believe frame 7 was taken at

8 seconds rather than 16. And there was also a
problem with filters in there, which I mentioned,
and I cannot recall exactly which one I did not
have the correct filter for. However, at the
end - that is, at the end of that period of eight
exposures - I did give you some more sets, I
believe; six more exposures, which, as far as I
can recall, were all done properly. The remainder
of the tracking I think went pretty well, for
9 through 28. And anything - any off nominal -
any - out of the ordinary - that is, not done as
specified by the pad - was mentioned on tape.
I did not really have time to make notes this
time, but most everything went real well. I
think I finally reached a level of proficiency

had the IR camera handy. And I took about i0

photos in IR of the confluence of the Falkland
Current and the South Equatorial Current. We
started right at the interface between the red
water of the Rio Parana and the green water in
the - in the bay. And then I worked out pro-
gressively to the southeast. And I tried to tie
each photograph to the one before. I tried to
make use of clouds and land mass - land - bits
of land mass to try to orient the photographs.
And I took them all at 8 - f/8 with a 55-millimeter
lens, 1/500. And they're pretty - Well, they
pretty well cover a distance that goes out - I
think about 1000 - 800 to 1000 miles southeast
of Montevideo and Buenos Aires.

031 18 43 ll CDE I - I found something rather significant which

I thought was rather interesting. And that is,
if you'll remember the sketches I drew for the
TV thing I did, I showed the confluence of these
two and I showed some little eddies, and then I
showed the whole area moving out to the southeast -
the mixture of the two currents. Well, what I
found looking today, the - the difference - the
color contrast, the color definition, wasn't quite
as clear today as it was yesterday. But I did
see that these two currents meet and then go to
the southeast. But I noticed also a huge eddy
peel off to the south and heads back south again
and Joins up again with some more Falkland Cur-
rent and heads inland.

031 18 44 03 CDR I would say that's probably 200 - 300 miles,

long; maybe - yes, it may be more like 200 miles.
So essentially what you have is a current coming
down from the northeast, one coming up from the
southwest ; they meet and kind of head out to the
southeast, but then an eddy peels off the south
side of this thing - a great big gyro or eddy -
and - and it's a clockwise rotation and mixes
with the Falkland Current a little bit to the
south and gets gyred or - or rotated back into
the area of the confluence that - that is ._ust
off the bay of Rio de la Plata. And if these
IR pictures are worth a nickel, they should show
that pretty well for us.

031 23 08 15 SPT SPT at 23:08. M487-3 Echo, foot restraint ev_l-

uation. Well, I tried the large mushroom for Just
about the total day here. And m_ evaluation is,
according to your point, first of all, ease of
engaging. I found it very easy to engage the
triangle shoes or, I should say, the mushrooms
in the floor grid. Not much easier than the tri-
angles, now that I've gotten use to the triangles.
But still you usually get a hook in, then get a
location. However, the big drawback that I see
is the difficulty a - of having them remain engaged -
that is, while you start working, unless you hold
any kind of pressure against it, one way or the
other you sort of get a friction around the shoe
here at the floor - or that you're always forcing
the triangle or the mushroom up against the grid,
your foot comes out. And I find this - this kind
of to,_b to work with and kind of annoying. Also,
slows down your work pace once you're at a given
station. Which type of restraint would I prefer?
If - I prefer the triangle. I've gotten used to
it and I have not tried the mushroom for a long
period of time. Maybe I'd get to know its in -
ins and outs after a little while.

031 23 09 35 SPT But the real advantage I see to the triangle, once
you learn how to insert in the grid, which - I
can do quite easily now - Just look at a spot and
put _ foot there in the triangle hole; it seems3
Just like an autcmatic reflex now - once you got
your triangle in there, it stays there. And you
 36hi

can very easily disengage it, too, when required.

In either installing and removing the cleats, I
found taking them off to be no real problem. But
I used the large pliers on the wing nuts to make
sure that they were on good and tight. And I
used the large pliers at the base of the mush-
rooms also to tighten them up. And they' re fairly
easy things to put on and off. I would not want
to do it many times a day if I had that chore com-
ing up. But it can be done fairly quickly and
not in a time-consnm_ng way at all. Another thing
for the M487 folks is, the other day I did have a
maintenance task and that was fixing the MARK I
exerciser. And I was going to take it up to the
screen, but it turned out, to unbolt that thing
from the floor - Well, it turned out to be more
problems than it was worth; so I ended up doing
the repair Job right down there where it was,
right next to the floor.

031 23 l0 52 SPT And essentially the way I did it was - the way
we - I've talked about it before. I had around
three strips of tape about l0 inches long right
out along the M509 bottles, right on the rack
that holds them. And I put washers, bolts, every-
thing I had to take out of there. And it held
all the tools, which included screwdrivers and a
knife and a pair of pliers and a whole host of -
host of other little _m_ll things. And I did it
all right down there and Just had myself laying
para - horizontal to the floor. Didn't have to
put very many large forces on it. Had to move
around at a - quite a bit. And I found it quite
easy to do it that way. So a portable ex -
surface, I think, is a very useful thing to have.
One thing we have that I've also noticed, talking
about movable surfaces, is, working at the scien-
tific airlock - and I keep coming to this - espe-
cially working in S063, you sure need a little
writing surface there which would be right next
to you, about chest high or so.

031 23 12 02 SPT Or if you had a little clipboard which would be

able to hold the pad which you had to work with,
in this case S063, which had 20 some-odd exposures
in one orbit and 18 in another and we had to mark
them off and follow them as we went and do it
36_2

rather quickly. One of the problems I encountered

was that - -

PiT ... recording?

031 2B 12 _0 SPT I was interrupted and I got to get back into the
train of thought here.

031 23 13 02 SPT One of the problems in doing S063 is that the light
that's coming in from the - while you're doing the
ozone photography, completely necks down the
pupil of your eye so you can't see hardly any-
thing inside. You got to look back at the pad
or the checklist or whatever you're following
and you can't see a blamed thin_. What we need
is to have the - a portable restraint or a port-
able platform which you could move over so the
light would shine on that also. Unfortunately,
the S06B people want all the lights off in the
background so they don't get any glare. And that
really slows you down. l've had to use flash-
light-in-the-mouth routine or a flashlight taped
to something else in order to make it work. And
I'm sure there's a much better way. We need Just
a little podium or a little platform which could
be put on the floor or the triangles. And maybe
we'd run an extension tube, if you like, down it.
So you can mA_e it any height you wanted to,
telescoping, and work with that.

0B1 23 50 _6 CDR This is the CDR at 23:50 Zulu. The subject is

housekeeping 71 Bravo, fire extinguisher test.
The extinguisher was fired into the plenum bag,
and it took B0 seconds for the extinguisher to
completely discharge. The consistency of the
foam was very much like a very light shaving
lather and very small, tiny bubbles. And if you
did not allow the foam to stack up too close to
the nozzle, it actually came out of the nozzle
like strings of spaghetti. And then it coalesced
about B feet away fr_n the nozzle, and then built
up into great big bundles of foam.
 36h3

031 23 51 32 CDR When you stuck the nozzle down into the fosm,
then it Just made great big bubbles of foam; a
very fine consistency. You could put your hand
in it, and it felt Just slightly slick and soapy.
And the reaction of the foam on the bag, it -
the first reaction was to wet the bag, and then
it stuck to the bag very nicely. And you'll be
able to see on the movies that we could shake
the foam free of the bag, but then it would
re-adhere to the bag fairly easily.

031 23 52 i0 CDR The volnme of the foam was about two-thirds of

a bag full, and then when we shook it down a
little bit, it went down to half a bag. And
that's when I necked down the bag and we took
pictures. That was about 2 minutes. About
5 minutes laterj the volume of the foam had Just
about halved and was down as high as the first
seam on the bag, which is about lh inches up
from the bottom.

CDR As the foam aged, the bubbles became larger, and

the bubbles are Just about completely gone now.

032 01 08 34 CDR This is the CDR at 01:08 Zulu, reporting handhe -

handheld photography of Kohoutek, $233. I po -
I pointed the c_-mpra in accordance with instruc-
tions from the ground. That is, first normal to
the window of the spacecraft, window n,_mher h,
and then tilted it back about 20, 25 degrees
toward the command module and took the pictures.
Don't know how much good they're going to be to
you, because the Sun - the Moon was up and cast-
ing a lot of light on the bottom side of the
solar panels and on a strut which goes right by
the window. I can't help but think that the
photography is pretty much degraded by Just a
lot of scattered light from the Moon. However,
you have three 180-second exposures taken; started
on time. And I think I did see the comet with
the binoculars. It' s extremely faint. And that
makes me even more inclined to think that you
probably will not see it on the f_lm because of
all the light and the fact that the comet is
indeed so faint.

032 02 _7 13. CDR This is CDR at 02:h7 Zulu. The subject is

Mh87-3 Echo, foot restraint evaluation. I tried
the mushroom cleats today for a while, and I
found them very easy to engage. Also extremely
easy to disengage; in fact, they were so easy
they were a pain. In some of the cases, I found
that they were not easy to en - disengage. To
be more specific, I found that once engaged,
that you had to keep a constant foot muscle -
foot-and-leg-muscle tension going or you would
come out of the - the mushroom again. You would
drift back out, which was a bother that made them
rather useless, I thought.

032 02 h7 59 CDR I found, also, that any time I wanted to move on -

I have gotten so used to using the triangles that
I would rotate _ foot and try to pull it up.
... wrong with the mushroom. Of course, rotating
the mushroom doesn't do anything ... does nothing
for you, and you end up with your foot still
locked in. And I almost twisted an ankle by
stepping off in my usual manner, as if - as if I
had a triangle on, and finding out that my foot
was still anchored after I'd already started mov-
ing m_body on. The difficulty of remaining
engaged, like I said, is strictly a muscle thing;
you have to keep your muscles tense or keep a
strain on the mushroom all the time in order to
hold it.

032 02 _8 h6 CDR Which type of foot restraint, triangle versus

mushroom, is the best for which kinds of activity?
Well, I think the triangle is better than the
mushroom at all times. But I will frankly a_m_t
that I've gotten used to the triangle and I'm
very much prejudiced toward the triangle. I think
it's a very fine foot restraint, and frankly, I
can't think of anything any better. The only
improvement that you could do on the triangle
would be to have more triangle grid area available
for use. Now that's - One advantage of the - of
the mushroom is that it can go into places where
you don't have a complete triangle available, Just
the one apex. And as long as you can get your
mushroom through the hole and into the apex, you
have got a place to put the mushroom. And that's
an advantage there.
 3647

032 02 49 33 CDR Ease of installing and removing the cleats from

the shoes? No problem. They're quite easy to
install and remove. And adequacy of the restraint
systems: I Just don't think they're adequate.
And I think the triangle restraint is far superior.
And I don't - I think after you get used to the
triangle and learn to slide in, that I can - I
can get locked in with my triangle Just as quick
as I can with the mushrooms. And it's a secure
lock; and I feel a whole lot better about it than
I do with the mushroom on. I think the triangle
shoe does require a little bit of training. You
need to kind of develop your technique. But when
you do develop it; I think it is by far the - the
superior way of foot restraint.

032 03 34 43 CDR This is the CDR at 03:30 Zulu reporting Earth

observation handheld photography. At 02:31, I
got a picture of Sakurajima in the southern part
of Japan. It was an IR photo - Correction; it
is not an IR photo. It was Charlie X-ray 49, not
an IR photo. And it's frame number 2, taken at
4.5, 300-millimeter lens, i/i000. The smoke was
blowing directly down the bay, which is about
south-southeast in direction. And there was not
a whole lot of smoke; fairly fine stream of it
and not too much indication of a widespread plum-
ing at the end of the smoke as we had before.

032 03 35 37 CDR The next photos taken were with the IR photo.
Charlie India 13 is the magazine number. At
03:20 1 got current in sunglint north and south
of Merriwa, Australia. There are frames 18
through 20; f-stop 3_I and 4 - and 8, 55-millimeter
lens, 1/500. And then at 03:30, as we came up to
New Zealand, I was for the main part watching the
Tasman Sea that - to look for any indications of
current in that area. The Tasman Sea was com-
pletely clouded over all the way from Australia
to New Zealand. However, out east of New Zealand
the weather was clear. I got pictures of exten-
sive coastal blooming near Christchurch, New
3648

Zealand. That's on IR picture number 21, Charlie

X-ray 13, and taken at f/8, 1/250 - correction,
1/500. And then I took a picture of the current
through the Cook Strait in sunglint and then
another picture east of New Zealand, where you
could see - about 150 to 200 miles east of New
Zealand - where you could see excellent streaking
of the plankton bloomings indicating the current
out in that direction. This was frame number 22
and 23 of IR 13, taken at an f-stop of 8,
55-millimeter lens, 1/500. And then I followed
quickly with a Charlie X-ray 56 picture of the
same coastal blooming in Christchurch, New Zealand,
just for photo comparison. That's frame number 65,
Charlie X-ray 56, taken at f/8, 1/500.

032 13 45 05 -SPT SPT at 13:h5, debriefing the JOP 13 pass which

began at 12:25. The initial maneuver went fine.
When we got out there to find Canopus, two things:
One is, it was quite a bit off of where we had
originally intended it. Secondly, it was a blunder
on my part in that we spent about the first 2 min-
utes looking for it without having the 52 switch
in the TV position. After I did that and hit SI,
stopped again I reinitialized everything. I found
myself at - looking at Canopus at about X of
plus 70 and a Y of minus 30 or so, which puts me
on the pylon. I then maneuvered - maneuvered it
over to about - to about minus 100. During that
maneuver we had a gimbal on a stop and we got
minus X went - when we went out there - about
minus 140 or so in X - and then slowly came back.
And that took heck of a long time.

032 13 46 34 SPT Then we finally maneuvered in there and got it

going, but all of that - I did a couple of maneu-
vers in there to try to locate it while I had the
MIRROR in the T aim position - or in the CAMERA
position. And that chewed up a little bit of time,
and then the gimbal on the stop chewed up a little
more time. The net result was we - we did get
behind. We moved over then - once I got it right
to the center, initialized the strapdown - moved
over to Gamma Vel, and on the way over, just as
it was coming in, I noticed it coming in from the
side, from the minus-X, minus-Y quadrant. So then
I let it go all the way in. I initialized; I think
it went to the ATTITUDE HOLD right there. Data
maneuver in - from that position, trying to take
into account the plus 3 in Y that you have to add
for a 55 OFFSET. Then we maneuvered in, started
the experiments; then initialized the strapdown
and then got SOLAR INERTIAL. That took - that
got the experiments going at 27; 13:27.

032 13 47 48 SPT We added an extra 4 minutes onto the end; so we

went to 38. So that means we got ll minutes worth
of exposures, as opposed to 19, which is consider-
ably less than what we got; but at least we found
it, got something on it. When you start maneuver-
ing around to look at some things in those - in
the TV, it Just - and especially in the - I found
in JOP 18D, and now in these, it just takes longer

r
3650

than we'd been scheduled for. And unfortunately,

the momentum situation Just won't let us sit out
here forever.

032 13 49 03 SPT 56 got their LONG EXPOSURE of, well, ll minutes;

the same for 5h. I could not see anything at all
on 55. And we did get the 127-second exposure for
52. Right now I'm in the middle of a maneuver back
and maneuver rate looks good. Gimbals look good.
I anticipate no major problems.

PLT Just got an ALTIMETER UNLOCK light ; that was at

o9:58.

CDR Bay of Fonseca.

PLT Still have a READY light. Okay, at 10:18, I should

finish my 190 sequence.

032 17 l0 20 PLT There we go. Okay, it was 2 seconds late. MODE

to STANDBY. FRAME to 63. And don't change the
INTERVAL .... *** 6. Okay, we're at 10:36.
Stand by -

032 17 l0 38 PLT MARK. MODE to AUTO.

PLT Okay, and I lost my READY light at ll:02.

CDR Okay.

PLT We're turning the ALTIMETER, OFF for 15 seconds.

CDR I was supposed to be giving you a nadir swath

here, and I was looking out ahead. Okay, got
the nadir swath going at ll. Sorry about that.

032 17 ll 18 PLT MARK. Turning ALTIMETER back ON. I have a READY

light.

CDR Okay, I see some - About all I can call them is

Just splotches down there of a little darker blue
than the - than the sunglint I see on the ocean.
I think what it really is is cloud shadows.

CDR Clouds are scattered to broken in general.

 3661

032 17 12 47 •PLT Okay, I got the UNLOCK light; now I'm going to
STANDBY again on the ALTIMETER. Man, that thing
is really going off - off and on.

CDR Ye s.

PLT Try it again for a short burst here before 13:20.

032 17 13 15 PLT Okay, I have the READY light.

032 17 13 21 PLT MARK. ALTIMETER to - to STANDBY. MODE to 2.

And RANGE, 70. Okay, at 13 -

PLT Okay, ON - go ON. And I got out of sequence there

cycling on the OFF and ON. STANDBY to READY -
or STANDBY to ON. And we have a READY light.
Now we've got an ALTIMETER UNLOCK light at 13:54.

032 17 14 05 PLT Still have a READY light on the 193.

CDR Coasting down the Andes.

PLT Okay, just lost it at 14:16; going OFF for 15 -

goingSTANDBYfor 15 seconds.

032 17 14 42 CDR Okay, terminating the nadir swath.

032 17 14 59 PLT Okay, coming back ON with the ALTIMETER. Got an

ALTIMETER UNLOCK light at 15 :ii.

CDR Now the clouds are getting quite heavy.

CDR Okay.

PLT Okay, ... is hanging in there.

CDR SOLAR INERTIAL in 1 minute.

PLT Okay.

CDR 17 :17.

PLT And I'm still going to be taking pictures as

we're doing that. So - -

CDR Okay.
3662

032 17 16 02 • PLT That's the way they want it. 16, S194 MODE,
MANUAL; and at 16:40, Ed, ETC to STANDBY.

032 17 16 19 PLT And I got the - lost the READY light on the
ALTIMETER again. Going to STANDBY.

032 17 16 24 PLT Okay, the maneuver time is in. About 30 seconds

to go to SI.

PLT So I guess I'm just going to leave the S - 93 on

STANDBY. 16:40 on my mark, Ed; ETC to STANDBY.

032 17 16 41 PLT MARK. 16:_0; ETC to STANDBY. And ALTIMETER's

already at STANDBY. 190 READY, out, 16:55.
*** monitor.

032 17 16 56 PLT MARK. Right on schedule.

032 17 17 01 CDR SOLAR INERTIAL.

PLT Okay, S190 at 17 minutes, MODE to STOP. And in-

stead of MODE to STANDBY, I'm going to go 190
FRAMES to 99. TAPE RECORDER POWER, OFF. 190,
MODE to AUTO. It is. What'd I turn off. Okay.
And - STANDBY; MODE, AUTO; EREP, START. Didn't
hear that 190 - Oh, there we go.

CDR Yes. Still clanking away.

PLT Okay. BeautifUl. Okay; forgot to go to STANDBY

on that. Okay, then everything worked out all
right. We got 17:17. And there was about an
8-second pause in there. I did not get started
right on 17 on S190. I don't imagine you expected
that, really. Okay, at 17:28, EREP to STOP.
We're just taking all kinds of pictures down here,
probably at sort of oblique angles.

CDR Yes. Andes are a little cloudy today.

032 17 19 28 CDR Okay, we're going to be coming out north of

Montevideo. We'll be north of that confluence.

PLT Pretty cloudy all over down there?

CDR Well, it's - it's going to scattered now, but -

scattered to broken. And it's - it's been cloudy
the whole way.
 3663

• PLT That's too bad.

032 17 19 48 CC Skylab, Houston. Vanguard for i0 minutes.

CDR Hi, Dick. We're on our way back to SI.

CC Roger, Jer. Looks like - Sounded like that was

a pretty good pass over the States there. I was
hope - wanted to ask Bill one question and that
was - I heard him mention that he got a red - READY
light after he reported the 191 READY light did
not come on, but I didn't know whether that was
ALTIMETER or 191. Did he ever see the 191 READY
light again?

032 17 20 19 PLT Negative.

CDR Yes, I don't have one over here either.

CC Okay, thank you much.

032 17 20 31 CDR When did we do that AUTO CAL?

PLT At 3 minutes past.

CDR Oh, shoot. I'ii bet our 191 data that I took on
those volcanoes isn't any good if we didn't get
a READY light.

032 17 20 46 PLT I don't know. I - That's why I was making the

cogent to ground. Did they want me to go ahead
and go to REFERENCE, 6. I had - I configured
the switches and everything for nominal. If it's
an indication error, then we're in - we're in
business. If it's in fact equipment problem,
yes, you're right.

CDR That's a shame. Darn volcanoes aren't clear that

often.

032 17 21 19 CDR Yes, Dick, the hunting was real good over the U.S.

CC Roger that, and we concur with your comments about

whether it was an indication or hardware problem.
We're thinking about it still.

CDR You want us to cycle the power on that or something?

 366_

032 17 21 hl" CC Not right now, Jerry. We're still talking.

CDR Okay.

PLT Also, Just for a comment, but 193 was also acting
up pretty much today, and I was having to cycle
from ON to STANDBY quite a few times there.

CC Okay.

032 17 21 59 CDR Okay. I got Montevideo on the screen here. Oh,

boy, the Rio Parana is really pouring out lots of
red silt and the old Atlantic Ocean just isn't -
Well, it's accepting it, but, boy, there's -
there's.a - a very sharp line of demarcation be-
tween the red silt of the Rio Parana there in the
Rio de le Plata Bay and the blue of the ocean.

CDR Wonder if that silt is being forced way down deep;

it's going on out on the bottom.

PLT Yes, it's sort of a -

032 17 22 40 CDR It looks like a meniscus. _

PLT Yes.

CDR On a narrow - you know, a narrow-necked straw or

something, on a pipette?

PLT Yes.

CDR 0nly it's inverted. And it - The bay just has

got this meniscus.

032 17 22 52 CDR Okay. We're coming up on the coastline now. Let's

see if we can see a little bit of - South Equa-
terial - Equatorial Current blooming.

PLT You looking for the Falkland now?

032 17 23 03 CDR Yes. We're a little too far north of Montevideo

to see the Falkland. I think we'll be lucky if
we see any of the confluence of the two.

032 17 23 19 CDR Say, what bank is that? Is that the IR bank or

the visible bank?
f_ 3665

•PLT I think it's the IR - h, 5, and 6.

CDR Right here is where we could use the IR film, out

here over the water.

PLT Well, these cameras are all working, Jerry.

CDR Yes. But for how long?

PLT Oh, they're going to be working until 28.

CDR Oh, are they?

032 17 23 40 PLT 5 more minutes.

CDR Oh, great.

PLT Well, 4 minutes - 4 minutes and 20 seconds.

CDR Going to get some - -

032 17 23 46 CC Skylab, Houston. (Cough) Skylab, Houston; for

the - Skylab, Houston; for the SPT. Just a re-
minder; the EREP cal maneuver number l's coming
up in about a minute.

PLT Okay. I want to take a quick look and see if

I can -

CDR Is the pad there?

032 17 24 25 CDB Whenever you're ready, Bill. Doesn't make any

difference.

PLT Well -

CDR South Equatorial Current is not very plain to see.

However, there's a lot of good coastal blooming.
Go ahead and take a little DAC of the coastal
blooming. That's off Porto Alegre.

032 17 25 19 CDR I don't know. Maybe it's all that cold water
from the Antarctic area moving up north, but
it's -the Falkland Current is really very, very
brightly colored compared to any other currents
we've seen.
3666

.CDR South Equatorial and the Humboldt and the

New Zealand Currents are all very subdued green
compared to the green of the Falkland Current.

032 17 25 45 CC PLT, Houston; if you get a chance, I wonder if

you would give us a readout on Bravo 7 and al -
and also check panel 202, the two 191 circuit
breakers.

CDR I'll check them for you.

PLT Okay. And Bravo 7 is reading 54.

CC Thank you.

032 17 26 15 CDR They're all in, Dick.

CC Thank you.

CDR They're closed, I guess.

032 17 26 33 PLT Okay, we Just lost a READY light here on 190. And
let's see. I have an indication on my pad, Dick,
that that was supposed to run until 28. You check
that out real quicklike?

CC Yes - yes. That was the time that I read you.

I'll check it again. Standby.

032 17 26 54 PLT Just lost a READY light and - Okay, I see what's
wrong. I had selected 89 instead of 99. There's -
there's a - a lot of slop in the knob. I'm going
to reinitiate.

CC Okay, Bill.

032 17 27 25 PLT There we go. We're running again.

CC Bill, Houston. We're quite willing to go ahead

and stop the 190 per the pad I read you at 17:28.
That's right now; so you can save a little time
getting prepared for the upcoming cal.

032 17 28 06 PLT Okay. All right.

032 17 28 20 PLT Okay, going MODE, STANDBY and EREP to STOP. And,
Jerry, I guess we could trade places now and I
will start getting ready for the cal.
f_ 3667

032 17 29 13 "CC Skylab, Houston; i minute to LOS. Tananarive

at 17:48.

CDR Roger, Dick. Okay.

032 17 29 43 CDR Okay. S190 READY light is out again. We still

don't have all of our MALF lights.

PLT No, I didn't run it to depletion. If you - -

CDR Did you - -

PLT - - if you want to watch it, there's nothing

wrong with reinitiating it. Go to MODE, AUTO
on 190 - -

032 17 30 01 CDR Yes, I know how to do that, but I'm wondering -

They do want it run to depletion, right?

PLT It'll be on your pad.

CDR I - I probably assumed that because this is the

last EREP.
/

CDR No, we got some more 190 going.

PLT No, it's - Leave it alone.

CDR All right.

032 17 30 30 PLT No, that's right. We've got to do the EREP cal.

PLT Those - those MALF lights there don't indicate

depletion. They're erroneous.

CDR Okay.

032 17 30 48 CDR All right. Ready verification.

032 17 31 50 CDR Okay. Here comes the preoperation configuration.

TAPE RECORDER is ON; READY is on. 92 is ON; the
READY is out; MODE is CHECK; the DOOR is OPEN.
91 is ON; we don't have a READY on_ that's the
problem. The COOLER is ON and the door is open.
90 is ON; the READY is out; we're in STANDBY; and
the door is open. RADIOMETER is in STANDBY;
READY is out. SCATTEROMETER is OFF; the READY is
out. ALTIMETER is OFF with a READY out. 94 is ON
.... witha READYon.
3668

032 17 34 26 .PLT Ed, what kind of maneuver time did we have? You
recall? I was Just wondering when this thing
is coming up here.

CDR Well, 17:45 is when you do the contingency maneuver.

Say again, Ed.

SPT 18 minutes maneuver time and we started it at 25.

CDR Okay. Thank you.

PLT Thank you.

032 17 35 21 PLT I don't have a pad - pad information one on this -

on it. I'll go by checklist. But I do need to
know the - a .little bit about tlme.

CDR Okay. The contingency maneuver is scheduled for

17 :_5.

PLT Okay. That's good. That's what I wanted to

know, really.

032 17 36 _4 PLT Thereit is. I foundit.

CDR Bill, do you remember what B-7 was reading when

you first checked it - when they asked you?

PLT Yes.

CDR What was it?

PLT Just a second. That's the one I wrote down.

No - -

CDR Bravo 7.

032 17 37 03 PLT Bravo 7. They called - they c'_lledand said,

"Would you tell us what B-7 is?"

CDR Yes.

CDR Do you remember?

PLT Just a second.

 3669

•PLT It was either reading 59 or 60. It was Just

a little bit less than what it is right now.

CDR Okay.

032 17 37 33 CDR The malfunction procedure said we've had a cooler

failure.

PLT Aha!

CDR Now that you mention it, it's not very noisy.

PLT Everything is giving up the ghost at the same

time, isn't it?

CDR Boy, I'll say.

032 17 37 53 PLT Yes, that's a crime. You missed all that data
on the - Ah, I just - I wouldn't worry about it,
you know; I just - *** Yes. (Laughter)

PLT Well, it could be that if - You know, if the

temperature stayed down there long enough, you
-- got degradeddata at least.

CDR Yes.

032 17 38 25 PLT I'm wondering what this is going to do to this

test they have me coming up. You know, I - I've
got a 191 special ca& procedure later on today.

CDR Well, Bravo 7 is supposed to be reading 22 to 58.

It's slowly climbing. I'm sorely tempted to cycle
the COOLER switch to see what happens. I don't
see what we have to lose. Because if the cooler
was less than or equal to h6 degrees, then you'd
be okay - or h6 percent.

CDR I'm going to cycle it. I don't see that there

is a thing to lose.

032 17 39 56 CDR Okay, the Dewar COOLER, S191 Dewar COOT._R is

running. Now it's obviously not cooling because
the reading for Bravo 7 is now up to 65 percent
and going on up. I Just cycled the COOLER, S191
COOLER 0N/OFF switch, and we'll see if that does
anything. I don't have any grand hopes for it.
3670

032 17 41 24 • PLT Okay, this has to do with the S191 portion of the
lunar cal. Tranquility and Serenity are fairly
visible. However, only a piece of the Imbrium
Basin is visible at this phase of the Moon, and
a very, very small piece of Oceanus Procellarum.
So I'll he taking those, but they'll be in very -
I think it'll be very obvious in the photographs.

CDR What are you doing? Rewinding?

032 17 42 05 PLT Hey, Ed, I - I apologize for giving you the bum
word there. I - I didn't realize what you were
asking there. I -

SPT ...

PLT I think we're going to be in good shape.

032 17 43 05 PLT 7 UP and 1 LEFT. And we're moving in.

032 17 44 08 CDR Oh, that doggone thermal detector temperature's

still going up.

PLT Okay, I've got 1 LEFT and 6 UP, which is fine,

I think.

032 17 44 35 PLT Zero LEFT/RIGHT now.

CDR What?

PLT Okay. Zero LEFT/RIGHT and 6 UP.

CDR Coming in.

PLT Okay, good.

032 17 44 56 CDR Okay, what it says here is that we can continue

using 191 but the thermal channel data will be
degraded or lost and that the auto cal sequences -
You assl,mp that they are done at 160 - 160 seconds.

PLT Okay. Now, I go ahead and - do ... ***

Yes, I guess I should have had a - Now we did not
have a filter change, did we? I didn't have any-
thing on my pad.

CDH No, there's nothing on my pad - -

/- 3671

•PLT Okay.

CDR - - about a filter change.

032 17 45 37 PLT Okay. I'm going to go ahead and take my data

here. 0.85 degrees UP.

CDR My data take starts at 17:51.

PLT 17 :51?

CDR Uh-huh.

PLT Let me see; I have no times that I can see here,

strictly going by checklist. There's nothing
on that *** T pad. Well, let me check here.
We're not - It's not going to do me any good.
The thing isn't running.

PLT EREP cal, VTS pad and -

032 17 46 52 PLT MARK. Now the - I might have missed the pad,
because I don't have an EREP pad on the VTS here.
• I thoughtI had all my pads.

032 17 27 39 CDR Okay, Bill, check your details and see if it

says "pad".

CDR Find it?

032 17 47 59 PLT Yes.

CDR *** 51. You've got about 3 minutes.

PLT Oh, that sounds good.

032 17 48 22 CC Skylab, Houston. We're AOS Tananarive for about

2-1/2 minutes.

CDR Roger, Dick. The S191 COOLER temperature is up

to 70 now. And I've gone through the malfunction
procedures on it; looks like we've had a detector
cooler failure. At 20 I cycled the COOLER switch
Just to see what we could hear. The cooler is
running and when you hit the switch to OFF, it
stops. And when we went back to ON, it started
up again, but it has not done much for the temper-
3672

ature. Although - Wait a minute. The temperature

is now down to 68. It was maxed out at 70. So
I guess our mode is the run with the 191, hut we're
going to have thermal channel degradation.

032 17 49 12 CC Roger, Jerry; glad you reported that to me. I

was going to ask you about that very thing. We
suspected that that might be the problem and the
cause of the lack of READY light.

CDR Okay, so I guess that means that our volcano data

in Central America was, for the most part, okay;
but the thermal part was probably degraded.

CC That's what - That's our best guess at the moment,

Jerry.

CDR Okay.

PLT ...

032 17 49 50 CDR Very good. Hey, that temperature is still coming

down; it's 66 now.

CC The thing is, we're - we may have an early LOS

here at Tananarive; Goldstone comes up at 18:35.

CDR Okay.

032 17 50 13 CDR Yes, and I have a lengthy mode procedure, too.

CDR Okay, 190; I've got to do some things here.

032 17 50 50 CDR 190, MODE to AUTO.

032 17 50 55 CDR 92, MODE to READY.

PLT Okay.

032 17 50 59 CDR 193 RADIOMETER, ON.

PLT And I don't even have a VTS pointing sequence - -

032 17 51 06 CDR Going to one EREP, START here at 51:lO. Stand

by -

032 17 51 ll CDE MARK it. Okay, we got TAPE MOTION and then it
went out - No, it's flickering. 51:43 is next.
 i- 36?3

• CDR Okay, I was some 40 seconds late getting the

1 17:50 data done,but I don't think it made any
difference. I think it was just prep for the
EREP, START. 51 :43 is coming up.

032 17 51 40 CC Skylab, Houston going over the hill. Could you

give us a readout on Charlie 7, please?

CDR Sure can. Charlie 7 is 58.

PLT ...

032 17 51 49 CDR SHUTTER SPEED to MEDIUM on 190.

CDR Okay, 51:55 coming up.

l

032 17 51 57 CDR MARK. 193, POLARIZATION to i. 52:13 is next.

Stand by -

032 17 52 14 CDR MARK. SHUTYER SPEED to SLOW on 190.

SPT ...

CDR Okay.

SPT ... going ...

PLT Okay, I'll - give you pointing information here; I

don't - I don't know if it does any good though.

032 17 52 43 CDR EREP, STOP. I think I'ii Just leave the EREP
back on again and let it run for another minute.

032 17 53 40 CDR EREP, STOP; 53:40.

032 17 53 42 CDR Okay, 192, MODE to CHECK.

032 17 53 47 CDR 190 to STANDBY.

032 17 53 49 CDR 93 Romeo to STANDBY.

032 17 54 40 PLT Okay, just for the record the apertures were set
at 8.0, 8.0, 9.5, 4.8, 5.6, 5.6, per pad. No
filter change required. And no VTS pointing
was executed.
3674

CDR Okay, and I don't know if Ed's comments got on

tape or not, but the cal maneuver 2 was i minute
late. He got a COMPUTER REJECT on entering the
maneuver and had to re - reenter it, and this was
done at about 52. And at 52:20 1 went to EREP,
STOP - 52:40 1 went to EREP, STOP. And then
thought better of it. And at about 52:50 1 put
the EREP back to START again and left it on until
53:40, figuring that since the maneuver was i min-
ute late that we might have - we might have other-
wise skipped i minute of data. So what you're
going to end up with is an S190 film count higher
than you expected. But I think it's worth it if
we didn't lose the data.

PLT Yes, well I - I don't think it's any - any problem

at all because l'm sure it's the last run on this
f_ Sin.

032 17 56 07 CDR Okay, the 191 COOLER temp is down to 63 now; so

it's slowly beating its way back down.

PLT You know the detector might still have been cold
enough while you were taking that data. It could
still be reasonably good.

CDR Might have been.

PLT How high did it get, Jer?

032 17 57 00 CDR SI rev? Okay, SI at 57:00. It got up to 70 max;

now it's down to 63.

CDR Okay, I'm going into my postprocedures according

to the pad rather than the cue card, and -

032 17 57 22 CDR RECORD switch is going OFF.

032 18 08 14 SPT Hello; Gibson, Skylab 3. Today we're going to

do the last of our educational experiments. This
one was proposed and put together by Kathy Jackson,
a good neighbor of ours down in Houston, Texas;
high school student. And the objective of this
 3675
f_

experiment is to measure the eye/hand coordination,

to see what degree of coordination you have before
you fly, during the flight, and after. We don't
feel any different. We'll see whether Kathy's
measurements show that we are. Turned out to be
a very sensitive measure of that coordination.
And we'll let you have a closer look at it pretty
soon, and you'll see me f_mhle my way through the
maze.

032 18 09 l0 SPT Essentially what we have is a series of small

holes which we'll put a stylus in, or a needle,
and move from one point to the other as rapidly
as we can and getting from start to finish in a
measured time. Now, Kathy's been pretty generous
with us. Gaging our mentality or knowing us fairly
well, she's managed to put lines between each
hole so we can't get lost. So it's a fairly
straightforward task, and the only thing that's
required is a little coordination.

032 18 09 39 SPT And we'll t'ake a look at it in a moment.

_- 032 18 22 40 SPY Okay, Bill, would you flip it on, please?

032 18 23 02 SPT Here we have a maze which I'm about to take a

couple laps around. This is Kathy Jackson's ex-
periment. And again the i - the idea here is
to go from point to point as rapidly as you can.
You have to insert it in the hole, makes a little
electrical contact on the back, and measure the
time in which it takes you from - all the way
through, start to finish. And if I follow the
line, I can't get lost. And I'll have a go at
it here as soon as I can get my watch synchronized.
Okay, stand by -

032 18 23 49 SPT MARK.

SPT Should have studied harder.

032 18 24 35 SPT MARK. Yay! That's 47 seconds. Not too bad for a
novice. Okay, we'll give this thing another
ready go here. Let's see what the world's record
is here. I imagine it's below 40 seconds. Okay,
stand by -

032 18 25 04 SPT MARK.

032 19 20 33 SPT SPT at 19:21. ED61/62. Took four photos today

of the front side of the container. The front
side had been taken off previously, according to
the modifications. I've been watering it since
then, using the old syringe, and I've Just been
putting the water on the front plate, sometimes
about eight ... squirts or so. I kept it very
moist. The five stems which I've had growing
out have all, in my estimation, turned a little
greener. I don't notice that they've turned -
or gotten much longer, but they have turned greener.

032 19 21 00 SPT The photos were taken on mag CIll6, frames 24, 25,
26, and 27. I think we got a good - some good
plants to work with for cytoplasmic streaming ex-
periments. However, I'm not sure whether we're
going to have time to be able to get to it. They're
keeping us pretty busy and - I'll see if I can
squeeze it in, however.

032 19 21 55 SPT Okay, another - another subject, visual observa-

tions. Today coming over the Bay of Fonseca I
/- noticed just a whole - whole wide area of bloom-
ing. It was an exceptionally - exceptionally
broad area, maybe a couple of hundred miles out.
And it - I could not really see a rotation to it,
although it was an eddy pattern; but I could not
see a definite, overall rotation as I did see one
day previously. The color pattern was very low
in contrast. It took a very special Sun angle to
see it. We had the Earth terrain cameras going
at the time; so I did not take any extra photo-
graphs. I wish now that I had, but I got through
within Just the time limit.

032 19 22 58 SPT We got - Because as I looked back at it at about

45 degrees, both the - the difference between the
ocean water, which was blue, and the water of the
- deep blue. And the other was just a slightly
lighter color and slightly green. And there
were just large swirls of it all over. There
was also a little bit of brown material coming
off the coast. Now this did not look like sed-
iment.

032 19 23 29 SPT Instead it looked like what we have seen before

in the way of red tide; that is, Just a very small
amount of it and there was two sections of it -
3678

one major one coming off the coast and maybe

extending out 30 or 40 miles and extending to the
north, oh, maybe 50 miles or so - 50 to 60 miles.
I hope it does show up in the Earth-terrain-
camera photos. Unfortunately every time we cc_e
over prime areas like this, we're always busy.
I wish we could devote a full day to Just watch-
ing as we go around the world and really get the
occurrence of these things.

032 19 2h 20 SPT Matter of fact, in the - in the future, if we ever

fly one of these types of missions again - a long-
duration Earth orbital with a space station, multi
- multicrew members - I would recommend that -
you sending one individual along whose job is
nothing else but visual observations. Of course,
he'll be greatly augmented in the capabilities
he would have.

032 19 24 41 SPT If one man could come up for the photography -

all of the new developments that come up - and
spent full - full duration of his time doing noth-
ing but that for whatever the duration of the
mission - Any one of us could have then easily
done that during this mission.

032 19 25 04 SPT I found it quite enjoyable and, I think, very pro-

ductive. And he might be combined with an Earth
resources series of instruments as well. But I
still think you should not take - and omit the
capability of a man onboard from ever being used
in terms of visual observations. I recommend, I
think, a full-time job ... when you get a space
station which is - which is large enough to house
m_ny individuals and will stay up for an appreci-
able length of time. Of course, these words pro-
bably won't have any effect - if at all - for the
next l0 years.

032 22 28 15 SPT For the 12 Echo JOP - this is primarily for 55 -

we picked out active region 38. I - I wasn't
sure what the motivation for 38 was, but I went
along with it. It didn't seem to have very high
counts in oxygen VI anywhere. It had a general
overall plage that I could distinguish in the
XUV monitor and a few bright points in H-alpha,
but the oxygen VI count was at the most 600 to
700. But that's what we - I did pick one of
those points and did the 12 Echo on that.

building block 2, with null bias; straightforward.

032 23 54 14 SPT SPT debriefing the ATM pass which began at 23:08
with the two special exposures primarily for 82B.
f I went to the coordinatesspecifiedand then,
knowing there's a little bit of slop in that
system - especially in the value of nu Z which is
known, I moved the 55 GRATING down towards the
Sun - or up, I should say, from line 9, which is
a new coalign position, to line 3 and then moved
back and forth LEFT/RIGHT and found the maximum
in oxygen VI, not at zero but at minus 8. So
that's an 8-arc second difference. The maximum
was 200. When I went plus or minus 5 in either
direction, it dropped down to 150. So I assumed
that that was where we wanted to be operating.
It also dropped off very rapidly in the radial
direction, outward. So I would assume that 82B
would be getting most of their contribution from
the lower altitude. And it was proper to maximize
in the manner which I did. So the coordinates
used then were what was called up from the ground;
in ROLL was plus 9510, a LEFT/RIGHT of minus 008,
and a DOWN of minus 1023. For the second one,
which was a background, I ROLLed Just to 9700,
left everything in UP/DOWN, LEFT/RIGHT the same,
and gave the exposures.

AUTO RASTER and two GRATING, AUTO SCANs at line 9.
You were not - you did not specify any other line.
I could have moved it down to line 3 or 4, where
82B would have gotten most of its contribution.
But I presumed that you would have specified that
if that's what you were after.

SPT And 56 got all their exposures except one. And

that is the - the SINGLE FRAME, l, for 5 minutes.
They got a SINGLE FRAME, l, LONG. The fact is,
the old SPT forgot to turn the CAMERA POWER switch
OFF after initiating the exposure. I was too busy
getting the egg timer going. I figure in about
another 85 days I ought to learn that one. And

likely, handheld photos or the people interested
.... in weather. We've been Just coming over, in the
past 5 minutes, an area of - an extensive area of
thunderstorms; more like the past i0 minutes, act-
ually. I've been watching it rather intently for
the past 5. One thing that impresses me about
the way in which they go off is that this area
which extends over maybe i000 miles or so along
our flight of - route of flight - and at least
300 or 400 miles on either side -

033 01 45 30 SPT There usually is a period of cslm where I see no

lightning flashes at all, and this might last for
1 second - 2 seconds or so at the most. Then we
will see a - one bright flash or maybe two or
three simultaneous at distinct, different loca-
tions, very distant; maybe a couple of thousand
miles distant. Most of the time though, if they
do go off together, they're relatively close; I'd
estimate 200 or 300 miles.

033 01 46 06 SPT There seems to be, in ... , some sort of a col-

lective organization to the lightning strikes
which occur over a wide area. When one goes off,
two or three may go off simultaneously, or that
one may in turn Just trigger a whole host of other
z_
3686

ones all over a very wide area - 500,000 miles,

perhaps. The lightning flashes then will go off;
numerous ones - 10, 20, or so. It'd be calm again
for about 1 - 1 to 2 seconds; then we'd get another
period of, oh, maybe 3, 4, 5, up - maybe up to
7 seconds or so of lightning going off in all lo-
cations. Then it sub - sub - subsides; period of
calm; then cycles through that again.

033 01 47 12 SPT A few things which impressed me here: One is the

fact that they can go off simultaneously or near
simultaneously over a large distance - sympathetic
lightning bolts, if you will, as analogous to
sympathetic flares on the Sun- and that we do
get periods of calm between periods of very high
activity. Some sort of collective phenomena ap-
pears to be at work.

Earth observations handheld photography. Let's

when I took two - two IR pictures of coastal bloom-

ing along the Chilean coast. These were IRI3,
frames number 29 and 30, f/8, 1/500. Then at
19:02, I took a Charlie X-ray 56, a wide overview
of the Falkland Current Just off Trelew, Argentina.
This was frame number 62 of Charlie X-ray 56, f/8,
35-millimeter lens, 1/500.

CDR Then this evening at 02:38, as we were passing over

the southern end of North Island, the southern part
of North Island, New Zealand, I could see very
strong - correction; this was at 02:38. This was
after we had gone over New Guinea and we were Just
looking along the Great Barrier Reef. Before we
got to the reef, around in the Ceral Sea, around
the islets of Willis, Coringa, and Diamond, I saw
some current patterns and sunglint, which I took
with a 35-millimeter lens. That's frames 61 and
60, f/ll, 35-millimeter, 1/500.

033 02 52 26 CDR Okay. Then at 02:48 we got to New Zealand. And

at the east end of Cook Strait, New Zealand, in
the - in the sunglint, I could see very strong
/-
swells moving. They were parallel. Well, let's
see; not parallel, but perpendicular to the flow
through the strait. These swells were out a little
ways to sea from the strait. And I got good pic-
tures of them in IR as well as color exterior.
The color exterior pictures, one was a Nikon 300,
_.5, 1/500. I took the same picture with the 35-mil-
limeter Nikon to get an overviev, and that's frame
number 58. The 300 w_s frame 59; the 35-millimeter
was 58. That was f/8 over - 1/250 - 1/500. And
then I took an IR photo of the same area - two IR
photos. That's on India Romeo 13, and they were
frames _l and _2, f/8, 55-millimeter lens, 1/500.

033 02 53 58 CDR Again, I can make the observation that the plankton
blooming that we see around the New Zealand Current
is nowhere near as striking and iridescent looking
as the Falkland Current plankton blooming. And
the changes in the ocean color are quite a bit
more indistinct than they are over in the Falkland
Current. But they are definitely there, and I
hope that the IR camera really brings them up.

the M092 people, we got the side facial photo but
the - when I went to get the one frontal, I found
out we're out of IR film in that camera, could not
advance it. And try as we might, with two of us
working on it, Bill and I, we could not change IR
film out in time in order to get the second photo.
So that's a photo we did not - were not able to
get. You may want to consider that in the planning
for the next M092 run on the CDR. CDR gave you
on 171 some instrumented and he'll be giving you

033 19 ll 54 SPT SPT at 19:12. S020 prep for EVA. We are using
bag number 4, as specified. And let me describe
the filter situation. Filter serial number 31
had got two pinhole-sized holes in them which I
could see _-ith the naked eye with a flashlight
behind the filter. Getting out the magnifying
glass, I could detect about six more relatively
small ones. So there are a total of eight which
I am able to see in that filter. That was the
filter which we did have in before the last EVA.
The only other one we have available to us is serial
number 41, which I've looked at. That has one pin-
hole which can be seen by the naked eye with a
flashlight behind and about five additional very
small ones. It appears that the total amount of
light coming through filter 41, through pinholes,
is considerably less than that in 31.

observations. While passing over South Georgia
Island in the South Atlantic, there are two ice
islands, one to the north and one to the south of
the island, with a considerable amount of small
chunks of ice breaking off of it. I should say
relatively small - small, relative to the ice
island itself. The larger of the two islands, I
would say, is probably 5 to i0 miles across and
20 miles long. And the smaller of the two islands,
which is to the south, is probably around i0 by i0.
I also noticed, in the vicinity of south Georgia
Island, a good deal of coastal blooming and quite
a few stains well away from the island out in the
water, of rather definitely marked plankton blooming.

 DAY034 (AM) 3695

034 00 46 27, CDR This is the CDR at 00:45 Zulu. The subject is
the urine waste management system. The - There
are two items - This is for the waste management
people. There are two items which I think may
have an impact upon your plans for deactivation,
and so I thought I better let you know about them.
In the last couple or 3 days now, we have noticed
the formation of urine crystals has begun, the
urea crystals around the interface of the two -
the two halves of the separator - of the urine
separator. The urea crystals are forming on all
three separators and they're not bad; there's not
many, but they are definitely forming, indicating
that they finally worked their way through the -
whatever seals or gaskets there is that holds the
two halves of the separator together - the two
halves of the - the body of the separator.

034 O0 47 27 CDR And I thought you should know that and also we
have begun to notice the odor of ammonia in the
waste management compartment. We did that this
evening. And it's coming out of the louvers of
the - from the compartment up above the fecal
canister area. The vacuum cleaner motor - the
blower motor_up there - appears to be the source
of the odors. We separated the boot from the
canister charcoals - the boot between the canister
charcoal and the blower motor - and I took a
sniff of that boot, you know, at the top end of
the canister and it smells quite clean. And so,
therefore, I concluded that the - the strong
Ammonia odor is begin - is coming from the vacuum
cleaner itself, which indiciates, to me anyway,
that there must be an accumulation of old urine
condensate or something up in that blower and
that it's beginning to bake off now and - and -
and causing the odor of Ammonia.

034 00 48 32 CDR I don't know if these are - if these things are

significant from your standpoint as far as deacti-
vation is concerned, but I thought you needed to
know about it.

Building block 16 was carried out straightforward.
Observing time, I chose to use the one last 82B
exposure to look at polar plumes again, north pole.
We went approximately to the same roll as I was
yesterday and the same offset pointing with the
smme position off the l_mh of minus 1023. Stepped
the oxygen - stepped the 55 GRATING to line 3 and
looked around and came out with a - a roll. The
count was - in oxygen VI did not ever get above 200
at that position, which it did yesterday. But I
did find a point where it was around 170, although
it was in nowhere - in no way a very sharp m_×imum
at all, and that was at a ROLL of plus 9389.

034 02 33 23 SPT Gave 82B a WAVEL_GTH, SHORT timed exposure.

Approximately 15 minutes, I believe it was. 55
got some MIRROR, AUTO RASTERs down to about line 30;
first one down to line 13 and the remainder of
them down to line 30, GRATING of all balls. And
56 took a SINGLE FRAME, LONG.

thing for the last time is that I'm sorry it's
the last time. And now I seem ... because I've
really enjoyed it. But I think for the investment
which everybody has put into it, I would like to
see next time, whenever that next time may be,
something like this put together again. It would
be made a national observatory; that we don't Just
have three missions but we have a series of missions
which span many years. The facility we have here
is - is useful and will contin - will continue to
be useful if we - if we could update the equipment
and - as we learn new things to explore. I'm
only sorry that the ATM has seen its last data

S-BAND to T/R, pushing on the switch, and it is.

034 15 04 52 CDR Bill, referring to your drawing, which - which of

our audio panels cemes up on A?

PLT Stand by 1.

r
PLT Oh, the CSM 6.

CDR Okay, that's over on your side of the house, isn't

it?

PLT That's affirm.

CDR Channel A.

PLT Okay. They're talking again. Let me go task to

them.

SPT So if they're working - if B is working, we could -

Oh, no, because EVA CCU over to B.

CDR Yes. We should be able to do that.

CDR My SUS UMBILICAL POWER is ON. Is yours ON?

SPT Yes. Yes.

CDR Well, it would have to be, or we wouldn't be able

to hear Bill.
3726

• PLT Dang thing.

!
03h 15 05 h2 PLT Say again, Story. I didn't hear you.

CC ...

PLT ... I'm 102 right now.

CC ...

PLT Okay. I'm on channel A, 102.

PLT How do you read, Story?

03h 15 06 20 CDR Oh, that feels good. Oh, that did.

PLT That didn't help any, Story.

CDR Tell Story that we Just apparently don't have A

and B connected together.

PLT Somehow it seems like we don't have A and B con-

nected together.

PLT Way, way down in the mud.

034 15 06 58 PLT Okay, Story, I - I tried to turn on the EXPERI-

MENT 1 RECORDER and I never did get the light, but
that 's normal. That 's the only - -

CDR That 's right.

PLT - - the most nominal effect I've had.

CDR Yes, that 's nominal.

CDR That is nominally off nominal.

PLT It ain't working right like it's supposed to.

CDR Right.

PLT I got an uneasy feeling it's all in the command

module.
 3727

! 034 15 07 35 .CDR Well, if you've got all three S-BANDs, ON and all
three INTERCOMs to T/R, I don't know what else we
can do.

SPT How about some circuit breakers over there? For

the S-BANDs. Why don't you check to make sure that
they're all in?

PLT Okay.

CDR The thing is, Ed, we're getting S-band on another

system, so S-BAND's getting up and down.

SPT Well, okay. That 's the only thing we haven 't
checked, is circuit breakers. I don't know whether
there's anything involved in there that - I don't
pretend to understand them fully - that comm
system.

PLT Well, apparently somebody else doesn't either.

034 15 08 08 SPT Another suggestion, if you get a chance to talk

to them, is for us to go over to EVA CCU on
CHANNEL B, AUDIO CHANNEL B. Could turn LSU POWER,
OFF and switch over.

PLT Okay. I'm not quite sure I understand what you

said - said there, Ed.

SPT We can take our CCU's here EVA and switch over to
AUDIO CHANNEL B, rather than AUDIO CHANNEL A, which
we're both hooked up now.

CDR Okay.

PLT Well, why don't we do that? I don't think we have

a thing to lose.

034 15 08 40 CDR Okay. Go back, Bill, to your procedure you were

reading at the very beginning, what to do if you
didn't have comm with the ground.

PLT Okay. If all three crewmen lose comm, EV-3 con-

figures CSM panel 6, AUDIO CONTROL to BACKUP. If
no Joy - Okay, let me do that.

034 15 09 2h SPT I can hear some squeaking way down in the

background.
3728

•CDR Is he talking to you again, Bill?

PLT Yes. Okay, now we 're on BACKUP.

CDR Okay.

CC Now reading you loud and clear down here.

CDR Hey, yes. We got you, too. How do you read us?

CC Loud and clear, Jer.

SPT Okay. How do you read me, Story?

CC Loud and clear.

CDR Okay, Story. I guess Bill took panel 6 and put

the AUDIO CONTROL to BACKUP.

PLT Yes, nice to know that somebody else doesn't under-

stand the c_mm system either.

034 15 l0 ll PLT Okay, let's see, where were we? We were getting
ready to depress. Okay. I have inhibited CMG
control. I've done a nominal H-CAGE, I think.
I'm going to do it again.

CC Negative on the cage, Bill. You're looking good

right now.

PLT Okay.

PLT All right. Well, I've got to find my place again

after all that folderol. We were doing so well,
too.

CDR Yes. We lost 20 minutes on that one.

034 15 l0 59 CC Skylab, we don't understand your previous communi-

cation problems, but you're clear to go ahead with
the configuration you've got and you're GO for
depress. All your systems are looking good.

PLT Okay, Story. How are you in reading him, Jerry?

CDR Oh, a little bit weak, but nice and clear.

 I- 3729

•SPT A little bit weak, yes; there's a wave up in the

I volume.

PLT Well, I should have done it while I was in there.

As soon as we get everything squared away here,
I'll go in there and turn up the volume again.

CDR Okay.

PLT Okay. Airlock module depress. Warning: EV-1

and 2, if cuff gage drops below 3.6 psig during
depress, LOCK COMPARTMENT DEPRESS VALVE, CLOSE
and EV-3, forward hatch PRESSURIZATION EQUALIZATION
VALVE to OPEN. Okay.

034 15 ll 45 PLT All right, 311, forward hatch PRESSURE EQUALIZATION

VALVE to CLOSE. Stand by, it's in work. Okay,
it's CLOSEd. EV-1 and 2, note: If LOW VENT FLOW
light comes on before depress complete, FLOW
select, EVA NORMAL. During depress, cuff gage may
read 4.1 max in DELTA-P mode. Warning: EV-3,
if rate of climb indicator exceeds 100 feet per
minute or if caution/warning, rapid delta-P,
- PP02, LOW, or CLUSTER PRESSURE, LOW, tell EV-I to
CLOSE COMPARTMENT DEPRESS VALVE.

PLT EV-I, panel 318. LOCK COMPARTMENT DEPRESS; the

DEPRESS VALVE to OPEN.

SPT Okay. It's going OPEN now.

034 15 12 45 SPT OPEN.

CC ... LOS; see you over at Goldstone at 15:28, about

16 minutes.

PLT Okay, Story. EV-3, panel 225, monitor PRESSURE

to FORWARD, 0WS stable h.8 to 5.2.

034 15 13 01 CDR Okay, our pressure is down to 4-1/2. 4-1/2, cuff

gage good.

SPT Yes, my cuff gage is hanging in there.

SPT And we'll be picking up a little ice there. I see

it cc_ing in now.
373O

• PLT I tell you what, while you are doing that I 'm going
to go up there and tweak that volume up. 1

SPT Good idea.

PLT And I can boogie back, if any problem comes up.

CC ... over the hill, Skylab, everything here looks

good.

CDR Okay, Story, thanks.

034 15 13 40 SPT Down to 3-1/2. Cuff gage holding at 3.75.

034 15 13 43 CDR Mine's looking good, 3.85.

PLT Okay, both MASTER VOLUMES full up, panel 6 and 9.

Wait until Story comes up again; see how that does
it.

SI_2 It'll be around 16 minutes. We're coming over the

coastline there. We're going to make that first
pass, Jer.

CDR Yes.

SPT ... the second.

PLT Okay, EV-1, remove screen from depress valve after

ice buildup to complete the depress.

034 15 14 4_ SPT Okay, I'm going to wait until we get down a little
bit more.

CDR Yes, we're down to 2-1/2 now.

PLT Okay.

SPT Cuff gage looks good at 2.75.

CDR Mine 's hanging in too.

SPT Actually, we're up a little bit, 2.78.

034 15 15 36 SPT How we doing over there? Less than 2, 1.6.

 3731

I •SPT Okay, we're getting down there towards i. Wait'll

I take this thing off. We're not picking up much
ice on it any more anyway.

CDR Why don't you go ahead and put it on that way?

SPT Okay.

SPT I guess re_lly - No, there's no order for it. Safe

to leave it.

CDR Yes, after a while, put it back on - after we get

depressurized, so that you don't kick it off and
lose it.

SPT Okay.

SPT Okay, how far down do we wait again there, Bill?

034 15 17 00 PLT Okay. Remove screen from depress valve after ice
buildup to complete depress. And then monitor
pressure - the - the LOCK PRESSURE to stabilized
pressure of 0.3 before hatch opening. And let's
see; really don't have - have - You Just use ice
! buildup --

CDR Ice buildup.

PLT - - as the criteria.

SPT Oh, that's good. That's good. Oh, I was - I was

thinking of hatch opening. Got what - what we need.

SPT Cuff gage is 2.78, looks good.

034 15 18 14 PLT What kind of lock pressure do you have now, Ed?

SPT Looking at around 0.4 or so.

PLT Okay.

SPT ... - -

PLT Less than or equal to point zero - 0.3 psi before

hatch opening.

SPT Okay, why don't you Just read - read hatch opening;
we won't do it.
3732

•PLT Okay, EVA hatch opening. EV-3, start watch for

beginning of EVA. So you give me a mark when you I
get ready to start.

SPT Okay.

PLT Panel 319, EVA hatch retainer spring loaded to

engaged position, verify.

PLT Verify hatch handle fully clockwise.

SPT Okay.

PLT Okay, open hatch, then engage the hold-open rod.

SPT Okay.

PLT All right, EV-1 and 2, when depress is complete,

MODE SELECT, ABSOLUTE. Just a second here. That -
that 's right.

SPT After you open the hatch, you go ABSOLUTE, huh?

PLT That 's correct.

SPT Okay, well, how we doing there, Jer? We about 3.3,

you think?

CDR Oh, I got - got bad angle; I can't tell.

034 15 19 15 SPT Okay, we got - the lock itself is reading 0.3 and
we're reading 0.4 on the aft.

PLT They should be the same.

I
3733
f_

• SPT Well, they should be, yes. It's gage inaccuracy.

[ Now we're reading around 0.25 or so on the
lock ... - -

PLT Okay, that looks good. Now let me hack my watch

here.

03h 15 19 33 SPT Okay, hatch handle going OPEN.

PLT HACK.

03h 15 19 3h SPT-EVA Okay, I got 15:20 [sic].

there. I was doing something.

PLT Okay, let me go back and start all over again.

SPT-EVA Well, Just the configuration for the PCU.

CDR-EVA You put your DELTA-P to ABSOLUTE.

SPT -EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Expect a little bit of dropoff in suit pressure and

then stabilization.

034 15 20 43 PLT PRESSURE select to BOTH.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Verify your PRESSURE select is BOTH.

034 15 20 h8 SPT-EVA And that's verified at BOTH and I'm looking at 3.6.
Okay. _

PLT FLOW select, EVA NORMAL. I

SPT-EVA I'm looking at 3.7 and we're in good shape. EVA

NORM coming up.

CDR-EVA I 'm good.

PLT Okay, that was Just a bit rough, the way I read
that - -

SPT-EVA No, that ... - -

PLT I'm going back to 103. EV-2 - -

SPT-EVA No, no. Don't bother. We got it.

CDR-EVA We've got it.

CDR-EVA 3minutes and 51 seconds?

PLT Yes, Roger.

CDR-EVA Let's get T025 out there and set up. We can do
this clothesline stuff later.

PLT Uh - -

CDR-EVA 25 is what's time critical. We want to get going

as soonas we get sunrise.
3736

• SPT-EVA You got a point. Okay ... - -

PLT Okay, you can go ahead and be passing it out.

I'll - -

SPT-EVA All right.

PLT - - turn over here to the proper place.

SPT-EVA Okay, I want to make sure I got it tethered.

CDR-EVA Remember, the T025 stuff is on some page in the

back of the book, 7 - section 7, I think.

PLT Yes.

034 15 23 36 CDR-EVA Okay, Ed, here she comes.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT All right, verify clamp is open, finger is deployed,

and position clamp on ATM truss halfway to or
beyond the first section of D-I handrail.

CDR-EVA Okay. The finger is not deployed any more.

SPT-EVA Okay. Just pass it out and I'll get her.

PLT Okay, secure clamp by turning top knob clockwise -

You know how to do that.

SPT-EVA Okay, Just a minute. Hold on to it until I get -

There you go - -

CDR-EVA A] ] right.

SPT-EVA - - restraint on it and locked.

03h 15 24 14 SPT-EVA Okay, I've got it.

•CDR-EVA Okay.

034 15 24 49 SPT-EVA Okay, I'm going to up my cooling a little bit

here. Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay. New this thing goes on the top side, is

that right ?

PLT That 's affirm.

CDR-EVA Let's see, the way we worked this before is I

punched the button and you took care of shutter
speed, didn't you?

SPT-EVA Yes, I think that worked real well.

CDR-EVA Yes, I liked that. That works fine.

CDR-EVA Do you need me to cc_e out and hold you?

SPT-EVA Oh - -

CDR-EVA I've got to come out anyway, I guess. No I got

to get the filtersout. I'ii bring them out and
put them on the temporary storage hook for you.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

034 15 25 45 SPT-EVA Let's see how we - This thing goes underneath,

doesn't it? Not on top.

PLT The - the clamp goes on top. Well, of course it

has to go on top. It only works - well, one way.

SPT-EVA Oh, I think I see now. Hold on, that Sun is up

and I got to get my visor down.

SPT-EVA Think about this -

034 15 26 26 PLT Okay, I'm going to read you this again. Position
clamp on strut halfway or beyond the first sec-
tion of D-1 handrail. Secure clamp by turning
top knob clockwise until tight. Then turn lower
knob counterclockwise until tight, the JAmnut.

SPT-EVA Yes. I can see that Jamuut. Right now I Just

got to get the whole thing on here. One of the
3738

problems is where I've got my - my hook located.

Huh. Three-handed Job, I get here.

03h 15 27 21 CDR-EVA Okay, the filter box is out now.

SPT-EVA Huh. I don't know ... I'm running into, but I

Just can't seem to get the fellow on here.

CDR-EVA Maybe we need to - to make it longer, screw it

all the way to the end.

SPT-EVA Is the finger spring loaded? There we go. Now

I don't know if I'm going to be able to rotate
it. I'm hitting that top.

CDR-EVA Something doesn't look right, Ed.

SPT-EVA I agree with you. You got my - I'll come over

to you. Just pull me in there.

CDR-EVA Ah.

SPT-EVA I pulled that darn thing off again.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA I think it's upside down.

CDR-EVA That's right; I think it is too, Ed.

SPT-EVA It doesn't go on the top; it goes on the bottom.

CDR-EVA Let me get out and hold you.

SPT-EVA I'll be all for that.

CDR-EVA You get out and get into the foot restraints and
hold you.

SPT-EVA Okay, because this is a real arm wrestling match

here.

CDR-EVA Okay, Just relax a minute until I get out there.

SPT-EVA Because as I recall, last time also we were reading

the exposures from the top and this would be from
the bottom.
 3739
f--

034 15 28 46. PLT Yes, you should he able to adjust that shutter
speed knob fairly comfortably from the foot
restraints out there.

SPT-EVA Yes, okay. I see the way the - the finger is

working.

CDR-EVA Okay, I'm going to use the foot restraints, Ed.

SPT-EVA Yes, okay. There we go.

CC Skylab, we're reading you loud and clear; state-

side 15 minutes.

PLT Roger, Story.

SPT-EVA Hello, Story. Okay, I think that 's - that 's the
proper position. I'm not sure what those words
said, Bill, but they didn't tell the story.

CC Bill, Houston.

034 15 29 22 PLT Go ahead, Story.

i

CC If you run into any coma problems, on page 1.2-15

is a cutout that we sent up to you and on panel i0
there, all - all the panels, 6, 9, and 10, should be
that same configuration. That's a little s,,m.nary
for you.

PLT Okay.

034 15 29 47 SPT-EVA Jer, what are you doing there?

CDR-EVA What mn I doing?

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA I'm standing in your foot restraints, holding you.

SPT-EVA Oh, okay - I di - Okay, Just - let me get up there

Give me a pull - -

PLT Okay, Story, those are all correct that way.

SPT-EVA - - so my head gets up there ... I got to see what

I 'm doing.
37h0

• CDR-EVA How's that?

SPT-EVA No, not good enough.

CDR-EVA There you go. Okay.

CC Okay, Bill, no change is needed. That's Just a

s11mmary in case you run into any problem.

03h 15 30 07 SPT-EVA Okay, let go a little bit a minute, Jer, and I'll -
I'll get positioned in there, if you'll Just hold
me there. Oh, it's my umbilical; that's what's
holding me up. Would you unloosen that fellow?
That's still - I think it's in that restraint.

CDR-EVA Yes, there you go.

SPT-EVA There we go. Okay.

CC CDR, Houston.

CDR-EVA Go ahead.

CC While you're planning that T025, one unknown to

us down here is how you plan to use Nikon 02. Do
you plan to transfer that - that eye relief, or
not ?

CDR-EVA Yes, we'll try it. We did it with the glove yes-
terday, and it was easier than we thought it
would be. We'll go on Rusty's advice and give it
a whirl.

CC Okay, thanks.

PLT And, Story, for your information, 15:19 was hatch

opening time.

CC Thank you, Bill. 15:19.

SPT-EVA Okay, I can take this tether off now, and it'll
ms](e it a lot easier to work. This is going to
be another day of finger exercises.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Okay, now Just lean me forward again there.

 37hi

•CDR-EVA ... sure. I Just got finished clamping your

tether.

SPT-EVA Okay. There we go.

SPT-EVA Okay, how about the good words on those knobs,

Bill?

034 15 31 30 PLT Okay. Let me read it again here. Position clamp

on strut halfway or beyond the first section of
D-1 handrail. Secure clamp by turning top knob
clockwise until tight, then turn lower knob coun-
terclockwise until tight.

03h 15 31 56 SPT-EVA Okay. In work.

03h 15 32 23 SPT-EVA Okay, that's complete.

PLT Okay. EV-2, pass filter case to EV-1.

CDR-EVA Okay, that's already done and it's in place.

PLT All right. Restrain T020 - okay. I'm going to

_- read this anyway, Just in case there's informa-
tion that you might need.

034 15 32 42 PLT Restrain T025 filter case on temporary stowage

hook. Install filter A to the - to A-l, Alfa 1
position. And align the experiment by turning
X and Y knobs until Sun image is located in the
center of occulting disk. Image will appear
orange in center - -

CDR-EVA Hey, Ed, look; there's the whole of San Joaquin

Valley over there. See it?

SPT-EVA Hold on.

CDR-EVA The Sierras, San Joaquin Valley, and the Salton

Sea.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Beautiful.

SPT-EVA Oh, yes.

03h 15 33 12 CDR-EVA So we're out over Arizona, probably Flagstaff.

3742 _

•PLT I can see the Grand Canyon from in here.

CDR-EVA Yes. There it is.

PLT Lake Powell.

SPT-EVA Let's take a look at that Garlock Fault and see

if it runs to Las Vegas.

CDR-EVA That's a little bit too far out and to the west
of us.

SPT-EVA Yes. You can't get good definition, can you?

CDR-EVA Uh-uh, not from here.

034 15 33 34 CDR-EVA Beautiful. We sure got a pretty country, Houston.

SPT-EVA That it is.

CDR-EVA Okay, back to the salt mines.

SPT-EVA Okay, now.

PLT We're Just about over Salt Lake City right now.
Okay.

SPT-EVA Hold on, Bill, I'm trying to get this thing lined
up and, until you get the Sun in there -

CC Skylab, Houston.

CDR-EVA Go ahead.

CC Jer, we don't want you to get too far downstream

on T025. You got at least another 50 minutes
until sunset and we're thinking that it may be in
the way of running the clothesline up and down to
the center workstation.

034 15 34 20 CDR-EVA Okay. Do you want us - Do you want us to put

T025 in and do the clothesline work first? I was
under the impression we wanted to get T025 out of
the way first of all.

SPT-EVA Yes. That's the way the checklist is written,

isn't it, Bill? Doesn't it have that in there?
 37h3
/--

• PLT I don't know - the checklist - I was reading and

I hadn't gotten that far - Just deploying the
clothesline.

CDR-EVA Well, the very first comment on the very first

page for egress says to do T025.

PLT That's right. 25 minutes prior to first ESS.

That's correct. It says stop normal EVA ops and
start T025 ops approximately 25 minutes prior to
first ESS.

CDR-EVA 0kay, so - -

PLT We - we have _7 minutes to go.

03h 15 35 03 CDR-EVA They're planning on T025 on the second day pass

then, I guess.

PLT Well, apparently they think they can get it all

in in 25 minutes.

03h 15 35 12 CDR-EVA Well, let's leave it right here and see if the
clothesline can be deployednow.

03h 15 35 16 PLT Okay, I'm going to drop back and regroup here. Ed,
it would be nice if you could get it aligned, so
you didu't have to waste any time doing that, you
knOW.

SPT-EVA That 's what I 'm doing right now.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA You know, I don't see anything red. I can see

the sunlight in there, but I do not see the red -

PLT You get Just a hint of red on the edges, if I

remember correctly. I was really torn with doubt
there, whether or not I was doing it right.

SPT-EVA Wait a minute. Now we're coming in. There we go.

There we go.

03h 15 35 5h CDR-EVA There's a lot of red land down there underneath

US •
37&4

• SPT-EVA Let's hear the words on the alignment for this

thing, Bill.

PLT Okay. Align experiment by turning X and Y knobs

until Sun image is located in center of occulting
disk. Image - -

CC Bill, Houston.

CDR-EVA Go ahead.

PLT - - will apear orange in center and red on edges.

Go, Story.

CC We'd like you to get going on S020 right now and

then you'll have plenty of time, we think, to get
going on S - T025 prior to sunset.

SPT-EVA Okay.

034 15 36 34 PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 15 36 38 PLT Okay, now that says to me, if I've interpreted

what he says correctly, that we go right straight
to the unstow S020.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay, unstow; I'm going to page 2.4-2 where it

says unstow $020. Unstow S020; verify mounting
bracket is fully open. I'm sorry, there's a
write-in step here. Unstow thermometer.

SPT-EVA We'll get the thermometer after we get up here.

PLT Okay. I 'm with you. From airlock module pouch

next to panel 316 - Well - Okay, unstow S020 -
We're sort of ad hoc-ing this.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 15 37 19 CDR-EVA I thought I understood what we were going to be

doing today, but I guess I didn't.
 37_5
f_

PLT l'm very confused myself. Unstow 8020. Verify

mounting bracket is fully open. Place VACUUM
VALVE/SHUTTER CONTROL to VENT. A11ow 15 seconds
to vent.

SPT-EVA Hello, Houston! Hi, gang!

CC Hi.

PLT Sure a pretty pass here this time.

SPT-EVA Sure is. Looks like they got a good day down
there. Wide open.

CDR-EVA Here we are, Ed.

CC EVA days are always good.

034 15 37 52 PLT Boy, that is beautiful.

034 15 37 55 SPT-EVA Ccme here, Jer, and let me put a wrist tether on
that fellow before we do anything.

PLT Man, the entire central plains is wide open.

SPT-EVA Okay, I've got it. Okay, this thing goes - Oh,
boy, does it go up on top?

CDR-EVA Yes, it does.

SPT-EVA Yes. Maybe we can fit it inside there.

CDR-EVA It goes between.

PLT San Antonio, Austin. Man I

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer, I may need a little bit more of the -

PLT Soaring right over the top of - Houston ship

channel. It shows up quite well.

CDR-EVA Okay, I'll get the thermGmeter ready.

SPT-EVA _1] right.

03_ 15 38 58 SPT-EVA Why don't you Just put that on the temporary
stowage hook, Jer?
37_6

• 0DR-E_A Okay,

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Hold on. I'm Just clamping this thing down here
nOW •

PLT All right. Just tell me when you want some more
words.

SPT-EVA I've got it on the truss now, Bill. I've Just

got to -

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA I've - Wait a minute. Hold on. What I'm doing

is tightening it up before I take off my wrist
tether.

PLT Yes. Just to be on the safe side I will briefly

reread the words so you'll make doubly sure that
you got everything right.

SPT -EVA Okay. ._

SPT-EVA Oh, boy. This is beautiful.

03h 15 40 18 SPT-EVA I'm going to have to slide T025 down a little bit,
Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay. You need to have me hold anything?

SPT-EVA No. I Just got to get two hands on it. Up a

little bit. Wait a minute, I'm going to put that
thing on there.

PLT It's a doggone shsme you've got to move it. You

know S020 does go on the far side of the truss -
toward the top, I guess, as you're looking at it.

SPT-EVA AII right.

SPT-EVA Yes, if you can hold my feet, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay.
 37_7

• SPT-EVA Yes, I need to be moving this thing down. The

only way l'm going to do it is work it - walk it
on down there.

CDR-EVA All right. Let me get - this thing tethered.

034 15 42 01 SPT-EVA There we go. Probably got it about as far as it

will go.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Let me tighten her up a bit. Too bad, after I

had all that alignment work done on it.

034 15 h2 23 CC Skylab, we're a minute and a half until LOS;

Vanguard will be coming up in 12 minutes at 15:54.
And, Bill, Houston.

PLT Go ahead, Story.

CC Prior to starting your alignment on S020 or T025,

go ahead and ENABLE CMG CONTROL.

PLT Okay.

034 15 42 45 CDR-EVA Okay, got S020 set?

034 15 42 49 SPT-EVA No, I don't, l'm *** right now, Jer, l'm putting
T025 back on. But the second clamp - the second
knob - rotating.

034 15 h2 58 CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Lock that one, then I got S020 on, but l've got
to move it over a little bit because its knobs are
interfering with D-7.

CDR-EVA Okay, I got you now.

SPT-EVA See, that's why I had to move that whole shebang

down.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Okay, that should do it. Now let me Just tighten

that up.

PLT Thank you, Story.

37h8

_PT-EVA So long, Story.

PLT Ed, now before you start the S020 alignment and
the T025 alignment again, l've got to do a CMG
enable.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Just let me know when you're -

SPT-EVA Go ahead, l'm done.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA l'm ready. Now, if you'll allow me to turn to

my right side here, l've got to get under here
where I can see the -

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 15 44 14 PLT Okay, CMG control is enabled. Let's press on with

the alignment.

SPT-EVA Okay. It 's in work.

CDR-EVA Be carefUl with your helmet. You're banging T025

camera.

SPT-EVA Yes. Unfortunately, Jer, the only way you can get
in here to see the image on S020 is to move right -

034 15 44 39 PLT Okay, Story, I'm watching the rates.

034 15 44 43 SPT-EVA ... going to have to sight along the top here first.

PLT Outer gimbals look in very good shape.

SPT-EVA There we go.

SPT-EVA What's the attitude error there, Bill?

PLT Okay, stand by for attitude error. I was looking

at rates. I should've been looking at attitude
error. You're right. Okay, we've got 0.1 degrees.

SPT-EVA Okay, that honked it in pretty fast.

PLT So you should - -

 • SPT-EVA Yes, I - I - I'm Just getting the - -

PLT Your alignment should be good.

PLT Okay, we're reading 000, and now I'm going to look
at your rates. The rates are very low. In the
noise almost.

PLT Okay, you're GO for alignment.

CDR-EVA Yes.

0B4 15 46 B3 PLT Verify the film advance knob ...

SPT-EVA Okay, we got the big - big image in the square.

And I'll record that as soon as you start my
exposure. Okay, now we want to open it up, don't
we?

PLT Place VACUUM VALVE/SHU2TER CONTROL to SHUTTER

OPEN. That's while you're in stowage, of course.

SPT-EVA Okay, I'll put it in stowage.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA First of all you want to go to VENT. I hope I

can read my alignment. Okay, we're at VENT and
you want to stay at VENT for how long?

034 15 47 l0 PLT 15 seconds. It should have already been long

past that.

SPT-EVA Well, I've not gone to VENT yet.

PLT Oh, I - I called that out earlier. Okay, I thought

you were already in VENT.

SPT-EVA No, we're in VENT now.

PLT All right. 15 seconds.

SPT-EVA Okay, and now you want to go SHUTTER OPEN.

PLT That 's correct, stowage. No, verify film advance

knob at S.

SPT-EVA It is verified.
 _r

3750

• PLT Place VACUUM VALVE/SHUTTER CONTROL to SHUTTER

OPEN.

SPT-EVA Yes ... alignment ...

034 15 47 42 PLT Okay, got it mounted. Verify the ... long de-
scription on how to adjust S020 ... You know
better than I do how to adjust it.

SPT-EVA ... alignment .... get another better aligment.

Oh, beautiful. I can't do better than that. Okay,
let me tell you. The - A little wall that's right
in the center of the larger one is in octal - is
up - about 1 unit ... a scale of 10. And there's
four hash m-rks; so each one is 2. So it's up 1
and to the left about 1/2. Up and left to 1/2,
on the large image.

PLT Okay, I got it.

034 15 48 47 SPT-EVA Okay, now, what's the first exposure, or do we

have time for it?

034 15 48 51 PLT We have a 60-minute exposure; we have a 30-minute _.

exposure; we've got 34 minutes to go, here.

SPT-EVA Let's get the 30.

PLT Okay. Then you'll - the 30-minute exposure, if

you'll tell me when it's started. I'm going to
call that number 1.

SPT-EVA Okay, are you ready?

PLT I 'm ready.

SPT-EVA Okay, stand by -

034 15 49 l0 SPT-EVA MARK.

03h 15 49 ii PLT MARK.

SPT-EVA We' re at number 1.

PLT And that was at 48:35 [sic].

SPT-EVA Okay, let me verify alignment again. Same

alignment. That's good. Let's press on.
 3751

•PLT Okay, I want to set a watch here.

SPT-EVA You may want to set your EVENT TIMER.

PLT That's what I'm setting.

SPT-EVA Thank you, Jer.

CDR-EVA Yes. What 's next now?

PLT The - I'm watching my clock here while I'm reading,

so I may stop talking. Adjust S020 until - Okay,
-,_edid that. Voice record best ali_ament; we've
done that. Initiate/terminate exposure: film
advance knob clockwise to next exposure and voice
mark. Okay, I've got the time on that.

03h 15 h9 50 CDR-EVA What about temperatures now? When do we measure

temperatures? Just before sunset?

PLT Just let me read in the procedure here, Jer.

Okay, for every exposure initiated - To terminate
an exposure - Okay, if no more exposures are re-
_ quired - Okay, EV-I, stand by. Okay, I'm going
to look at my timer.

034 15 50 09 PLT MARK. counting down, I got ... okay, EV-1 - Do

the following procedure, Jerry - at end of day-
light pass. Retrieve thermometer from temp stowage
hook and take temperature measurement on S020 back-
plate as base of film advance knob. Hold probe
on backplate for 30 seconds for temperature stab-
ilization. Stow thermometer on temporary stowage
hook.

SPT-EVA Okay, so we've got that - Is it out there - the

temp stowage hook?

CDR-EVA Yes, I'm putting it on. I've got it on a wrist

tether right now.

SPT-EVA Okay, and I'll - -

CDE-EVA T025 filters are on temp stowage hook too.

SPT-EVA Okay, sounds good, Jer.

3752

•PLT Okay, now - if - if I - if I've been interpreting

things properly, we've got S020 cooking for 30 min-
utes. I will be giving you a call again in 30 min-
utes. We should now return our attention to T025.
Is that the way you read the situation?

034 15 51 06 CDR-EVA Yes, sounded to me, the way Story was talking, like
he wants us to get the clothesline out.

PLT Okay, that's going to screw up the 25-minute per-

iod, I think. Maybe it won't. We've got 31 min-
utes left. I am falling back, regrouping, and
starting to read AM/VF operations again.

034 15 51 24 CDR-EVA T025 is - is Just about aligned, isn't it, Ed?

034 15 51 27 SPT-EVA Yes, I've got it aligned now.

CDR-EVA So we're ahaed of the time line on 25, Bill.

PLT Okay, I'll - I'll watch the time here. Okay, EV-1,
now let me read these procedures. You probably
already know what it - -

SPT-EVA Go ahead; press.

PLT EV-1, assist EV-2. Okay. EV-2 is going to par-

tially close airlock module hatch, if required.
Okay, and then EV-1 is going to pull Velcro strap
on VC clothesline container, retrieve a clothesline
hook, attach hook to inside hatch handle, and lock
hook.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Then you're going to pull a Velcro strap on VS

clothesline container, retrieve the clothesline
hook, attach hook to inside hatch handle.

034 15 52 08 SPT-EVA Okay, that's in work.

PLT Okay?

CDR-EVA I'll give you -

PLT I think that's as far as I need to read right now.

 3753

SPT-EVA Okay, now I can get up here. You don't have to close
anything, I don't believe.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Okay, now let's see. Let me make sure I understand

which one is which. This one's Stm end on my left,
and this one is - and out it pops - VC.

PLT Okay, and for the record, S020 was started at

15 :48:35 [sic ]; 30-mluute exposure.

034 15 52 38 SPT-EVA Okay, now - okay, this thing gets stowed -

034 15 52 43 CDR-EVA Oh, the hatch handle. See the blue handle underneath
there?

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA There you go.

SPT-EVA Okay, and the Sun end the same?

- PLT Affirmative.

CDR-EVA Yes, both on the same handle.

PLT Attach hook to inside hatch handle, both of them.

And lock the hook.

CDR-EVA What'd it do? Tear off?

SPT-EVA Yes, the piece of Velcro tore off, but I can put
the Velcro back on with a -

034 15 53 23 PLT And when you're ready, I can continue reading.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay, if you've closed the hatch partially, the next

step after that -

CDR-EVA We didn't do that, so you can skip it.

PLT EV-1, egress VR foot restraints and ingress VF foot

restraints.

CDR-EVA Okay, that'll be in work.

375_

•PLT Clamp own LSU in aft clamp at approximately 9 feet.

CDR-EVA Okay, that's already been done. He's getting -

he's getting back to VF now.

PLT Okay, E_fU status check on both of you.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Stand by.

034 15 54 08 SPT-EVA Okay, EV-1 looking at 3.62 with no lights.

PLT Okay, Jer.

034 15 54 16 CDR-EVA Okay, EV-2 is 3.7 and no lights.

034 15 54 21 PLT All right. Fold boom hooks toward hatch (if
required).

SPT-EVA We're good. Press.

PLT Okay, EV-2, unstow VS tree and pass to EV-1.

034 15 54 38 CDR-EVA Okay, that's in work - VS tree.

034 15 54 41 SPT-EVA Okay.

034 15 54 40 PLT That's right; being taken care of.

SPT-EVA Coming up.

PLT And, EV-1, stow VS tree in VF receptacle, F-15,

and lock.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Tell me when that's complete.

034 15 55 01 SPT-EVA Okay. It's in work.

034 15 55 03 CC Skylab, reading you loud and clear through the

Vanguard for 8 minutes.

PLT Roger, Story.

CC And, Bill, I got about four things for you here.

 3755
/--

• PLT Okay. Press.

CC On that C_4G control, of course, I'd get that prior

to starting the experiments S020 and T025. As a
general s11_ary, you'll be in CMG control during
the daytime, and after you get through taking your
T025 data, you can go back to TACS during the
nighttime. And then reenable the CMGs prior to
sunrise and starting your T025 or S020.

03h 15 55 44 PLT Okay, Story. Since I have the procedure out there,
we got sort of bent out of shape on all that co_n
problem. That's why I didnot enable the CMGs
in that first alignment again.

034 15 55 53 SPT-EVA Okay. We got - -

PLT Okay?

SPT-EVA We've got S020 going there, Story.

PLT Unstow VS tree - -

SPT-EVA We got a 30-minute going on that one. Okay, I've

got the VS tree.

CDR-EVA All right.

034 15 56 02 CC Okay. We - we think you ought to be running a

60-minute one on that S020 flrst, Ed.

CDR-EVA Okay. That'll be fine. We - we can switch ...

SPT-EVA Okay, that's right; that's right.

CC And when you get to night, all you got to do is

go to STOWAGE in that position. And when you get
back into daylight, Just go back to the nnmher
that you were taking.

CDR-EVA Okay, way we're set up, we will get 30 min-

utes of it this pass and 30 on the next pass.

SPT-EVA Okay. Hold on to this, Jerry - -

034 15 56 26 CDR-EVA Okay. I have it.

3756

• CO Okay. That sounds fine. And when you're ready

I
for the next exposure, all you have to do is move
it up to the next nnmBer.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Roger, Story. Okay, let me have that again.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Yes. Have to move that boom hook out of the way.
Okay, I got it.

CDR-EVA You got it.

PLT And the VB tree in the receptacle.

034 15 56 h5 CDR-EVA It's on the way.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Just handing it out to Ed.

PLT And the VC treewillbe next.

CDR-EVA Okay. I'll get it.

SPT-EVA I never realized what a tight fit that was.

PLT And, Story, the first --

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT - - exposure was started at 15:48:30.

CC Thank you.

034 15 57 13 PLT 48:35.

CDR-EVA Got it ?

034 15 57 16 SPT-EVA I've got it. Thank you.

034 15 57 26 CDR-EVA Okay, the VS and the VC tree are in position.

PLT Okay. Now it says unstow S020. We've already

done that ; however, there are two steps in here
which I would like to read Just to make sure we're
 3757

in the right configuration. EV-2, unstow the

thermometer from airlock module pouch, panel 316;
pass to EV-I. And, EV-I, stow the thermometer on
temporary stowage hook.

CDR-EVA That 's done.

03h 15 57 48 SPT-EVA Okay, we've got that. What I'd like you to do,
Bill, is to give me a 10-minute hack before sunset,
and I'll start working that thermometer.

PLT Okay. All right.

CDR-EVA Okay. Ed, I'm uneasy about that T025 filter setup,
so what do you say we take this tether and tether
it to the spacecraft, because we might lose that
off the stowage hook while we're reaching for
the - -

SPT-EVA 0kay.

CDR-EVA - - thermometer.

034 15 58 ll SPT-EVA Okay. Have you got any extra - Here, I'll tell
you what. Why don't we get that extra wrist
tether out there? And I might disturb - -

CDR-EVA Well, I've got a waist tether here that'll work.

SPT-EVA I might disturb alignment; you're right. Okay,

let's hope - Let's do it with this one.

CDR-EVA Put the waist tether on the handrail, and I'll

put this other hook on the eye.

SPT-EVA I tell you what; let's put the - let's put it right
up here where I can work it then. In other words,
I can just tether it right there and- and I won't
have to take it off the tether in order to - to
use it.

PLT Okay. Your next step, whenever you're ready.

034 15 58 h4 SPT-EVA Hold on, now. We're - we're working something here.

CDR-EVA There we go. Want it off the stowage hook?

3758

• SPT-EVA Well, let's see now. Wait a minute. That's the

way. You'll be working those filters; so is that
where you want it, or would you want it on here?
What I'm thinking is, I can move that thermometer
over there on this long tether and I'll never
have to let go of it.

CDR-EVA All right. Very good.

SPT-EVA And we can Just leave those T025's right on the

stowage hook. Very good. Now if you can just
put that on the other end there, on this end.

CDR-EVA All right.

03h 15 59 29 SPT-EVA Get that little loop there. That'll do it. Okay.

CDR-EVA And it's locked.

SPT-EVA Very good. Now let me find a convenient location I

up here. Oh, I know how to do this.

SPT-EVA And we'll just put the thermometer cable right in

the temporary - or this restraining hook for the
Sun-end clothesline.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA That way she'll be all set to go aud remain in the

shade here.

CDR-EVA Okay. What's the next step, Bill?

034 16 00 09 PLT Okay. Next step. EV-2, unstow DAC and pass to
EV-1.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT EV-1, stow DAC on Foxtrot 5, aft of temp stow hook,

below clothesline, and lock.

SPT-EVA Below clothesline?

PLT Well, stow DAC on F-5, aft of temporary stowage

hook. I think that should probably tell you
where to put it. Then if there's any clothesline
interference, you put it below the clothesline
and lock it.
 3759
f--.

• SPT-EVA Well, all right.

PLT I'm having trouble visualizing it myself.

SPT-EVA Well, the problem is, we don't have the clothesline

out or hooked up down by the ...

CDR-EVA You want to put your tether on there?

SPT-EVA Yes, I sure better.

PLT Let's make sure I didn't miss anything.

034 16 00 54 SPT-EVA No, Jer, it's up here. So there's no - there's

no _ay.

PLT No, that's just left them there.

SPT-EVA Oh, excuse me. Let me - Thank you.

CC Bill, Houston.

PLT Go, Story.

CC I 'm probably saying too much here, but you do have

the windows for the data-take times on T025
right there with your cue card, don't you?

034 16 01 23 PLT Windows for the T025? I do not have the pad - -

CC Yes, the ... - -

CDR-EVA That's that permanent general message, Bill.

Permanent general message 48.

PLT Oh, yes, right here. Here we go.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy.

CC The one that says start at 16:20 and 09 seconds.

PLT Okay, let me find it.

CC If you don't have them, I can read them to you

very nicely.

SPT-EVA Now it's on there and locked, but, boy, I don't

trust it.
3760

• CDR-EVA I've got to get out through there.

PLT I have the permanent general message, but I don't

see those times on it.

SPT-EVA I know.

CDR-EVA Okay. We'll see what happens here.

PLT Okay. I'll Just take them down, Story.

SPT-EVA I tell you what. Let's - let's move that fellow

back there.

034 16 02 05 CC Inside the asterisks, Bill.

PLT Houst*** say again.

CC It's - They're inside the asterisks.

CDR-EVA There's two little boxes down at the bottom of

it, Bill.

CC Bill, if you're ready to copy, I can read them

to you, and - -

PLT Okay. I don't have them.

CC - - we have about an hour LOS here.

PLT Go ahead and give them to me, Story.

CC Okay. The sunset one, start at 16:20:09 and stop

at 16:25:19.

CDR-EVA Good, Ed.

SPT-EVA Then I'll have to move it forward again.

CC And the sunrise times are between 16:57 - -

03h 16 02 51 SPT-EVA Why not just leave it right there?

CC - - and 0h seconds and stop at 17:02 - -

CDR-EVA Be better back further, if you could do it.

SPT-EVA Okay.
 3761
/--

• CC - - and 17 seconds.

PLT That was 17:02 and 17?

CC Yes, sir. And try to take about 20 exposures in

the first window and about 20 exposures in the
second window.

PLT Okay. We're already into our T025 time this time.

034 16 03 19 SPT-EVA Okay. Well, that's - that's the point. Now do we

want to get going on the clothesline, or do we
want to go T0257

CC You've got about another 17 minutes until the

window opens for T025, so you can time it accord-
ingly. We feel you're pretty well set up already.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Yes, we got it all Just about aligned.

CC Okay. Your window doesn't start for about another

16 minuteshere at 16:20:09.

PLT Thank you, Story.

034 16 03 44 CC LOS - See you over Goldst ***

CDR-EVA Okay. I guess I better get out there now.

SPT-EVA Yes, let's see. Let's hold on and -

CDR-EVA What - Bill, what's next after passing out the DAC?

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA We may be able to do one more thing before we quit.

PLT EV-2, unstow S149 and pass to EV-2 [sic]. This

was - must be EV-I.

CDR-EVA All right; now wait a minute. Where are we going

to put it?

SPf-EVA Let's leave it in there until you're actually going

to take it out.
3762

034 16 04 i0. PLT Well, you asked what the next thing was, and that's
whatitsaid. I

CDR-EVA Well, let's - let's Just hear what it says you're

going to do with it.

PLT Okay. Stow S149 on F-6 handrail near clothesline

clip. Experiment towards EV-1. Something - e-x-p-t
towards EV-1.

CDR-EVA Yes. That's it; experiment towards EV-1.

PLT And I still can't find that general message data.

SPT-EVA Okay. Let's forget 149 for right now.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA We don't need it out here; we've got enough things.

So what have we got? We got T025 com_ug up; for
that we can't - If you run down to the center
workstation,then we're working ....

CDR-EVA Yes. What will come up after the S149, Bill?

PLT Okay. Stand by.

034 16 04 56 PLT Still confused about T025. I never saw anything -

I don't see anything - -

CDR-EVA I - I showed it to you this morning, but I'll bet

it's still down in the wardroom. Remember I showed
you that permanent general message with the two
little boxes in it?

PLT Yes. I remember you showing it to me.

CDR-EVA Yes, and I think it's probably Just still sitting

down there.

034 16 05 13 PLT Okay. All right. The - After the S149 we have
TV; we don't do that. EV-1, assist EV-2 in
translation and manage EV-2 LSU and clothesline.

SPT-EVA Yes. And then we start into the film ... more.
 3763

• CDR-EVA Yes. Well, let's Just don't do it. Let's get

this first batch of T025 work done.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay. Now -

SPT-EVA Tell you what; let's Just get T025 all set up to
go. What's the first filter?

PLT First filter will be Alfa 1. What's the - I'm

going to start all over on all three exposures
here.

SPT-EVA That 's good.

PLT All right. Alfa l, 1/1000, and frame will be -

No, can't be that. Alfa l, 1/1000. There are
40 frames total here.

SPT-EVA Okay.

034 16 06 18 CDR-EVA Well, let's see, Ed, why don't I get out and get
in there,and once we get all set up and ready
for the first exposure, Bill can read us some
things like Nikon ops and some of those.

SPT-EVA Yes. Okay. Let's get everything all set up here

for those exposures.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA You want to come on out and help me do a realignment

once we get that filter in there and everything?

CDR-EVA Okay. Coming out.

034 16 06 22 PLT Okay. Now the 16 - We have to stop at 16:20 -

Wait a m_nute. 16:20:09 he gave me. That's
coming up shortly.

SPT-EVA That 's right.

PLT We have to stop at that time, as I understand it.

CDR-EVA Well, I got the impression he said that's when

we started.

[
31'64

• SPT-EVA That's when the window opens. See, we're looking

at comet apparently still.

PLT Okay. Then understand. I understand then. Okay.

We - At 16:20; we've got, oh, about 12 minutes
to go.

SPT-EVA You know, something like that though, they ought

to - they ought to really tell you what the
general objective is so you don't have to figure
it out.

PLT Well, I thought - -

CDR-EVA It was all there; we Just didn't read it well

enough, that's all.

SPT-EVA Okay.

03_ 16 07 31 CDR-EVA I saw that T025 stuff at the beginning, and I just -
I got the impression they wanted that thing early.
And I forgot that we were going to be working
close to sunset.

PLT You're ri - I thought you had brought that sheet

up here. You post - you pointed to the paper
here, and I've - I Just assumed that was it, and
it was a different one. It certainly was no -
Nothing startling about that, that'd lead you to
believe you needed to bring that up here.

SPT-EVA Okay, tell me when you're in position.

034 16 08 07 CDR-EVA I'm in position.

SPT-EVA Okay. Now let me turn around. I guess I really

got to get my back going in again.

PLT I'm afraid I don't have the right filters in. I -

I - I got this - -

CDR-EVA No, Bill, the card is good. The only thing the
general permanent message had on it, Bill, was the -
the window time.

PLT Okay.
 3765
/--

• CDR-EVA I thought we asked them if the card was good and

they said yes.

PLT Well, that's what I thought too. That's why I

thought, well, the card's good; shoot, I'll use
that. So - -

CDR-EVA The - the only thing the PGM had on it was the
windows.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA And he's read those up to you.

034 16 08 44 PLT We're in good shape.

CDR-EVA You want to get the filter in before you finish

that ?

SPT-EVA That'd be a good idea.

CDR-EVA First filter's A, right?

PLT Alfa i, i/i000 of a second.

CDR-EVA All right. There's _ifa right on top.

SPT-EVA All right. I'm going to have to - Something is -

I'm hitting in the back here. And I've not - ...
you ruin an operation. Okay.

034 16 09 35 PLT Okay. We got about 13 minutes to go in daylight,

Ed. I'll try to give you another hack at 10.

SPT-EVA Okay. We're going to be working T025 at that time

too, aren't we?

PLT That 's affirm.

SPT-EVA Tell you what I'm going to do is try and get that
thermometer set up right now. Let me get T025
aligned, and I'll set up that thermometer.

CDR-EVA Good show. How's that, right there?

SPT-EVA The alignment?

CDR-EVA No, on the holding you.

3766

"SPT-EVA Oh. Pretty good, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay.

03h 16 l0 12 SPT-EVA Okay. I have got myself - As I look exactly in

the center of that filter, I got myself a nice
orange ball; so I assume we've got ourselves good
occulting.

PLT That should be good.

SPT-EVA Okay. Now you can Just move back here a little,
Jer, and get this thing out_ Take my tape off,
all the good grease on it. Greasy kid's stuff.
Okay. Clamp this on here without disturbing S020
too much.

SPT-EVA Okay. We'll Just let all of that stabilize; then

I'll read it.

03h 16 ll 51 CDR-EVA Okay. I'm going to let go of you, Edward.

SPT-EVA I wanted to get this thing normal to the surface,

that's all,Jer,so - -

CDR-EVA Oh, I see. Okay.

SPT-EVA Make sure I get good contact.

034 16 12 13 CDR-EVA Is your alignment still okay?

SPT-EVA It looked when I took a quick glance at it before -

Do it again. That's the trouble here to - Yes,
it looks good.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay. I'll tell you what, I'll give you an S020
Just before we start the T025 ops, and I'll give
you one exactly at sunset if we get a chance.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA When do we start the T0257

PLT At 16:20:09, which is about 8 minutes away -

7 minutes.
 3767

•SPT-EVA Okay. In another _ minutes or so, we'll go for

S020.

CDR-EVA How long is that window, Bill?

PLT 5 minutes and i0 seconds.

SPT-EVA And what are we looking for in the way of exposures?

PLT Okay, i/i000, 1/30, h, i, 1/15, and 1 - They're

all short.

SPT-EVA All right.

03h 16 13 09 PLT So you know, it's just about as quick as you can
reset them.

SPT-EVA All right.

PLT Of course, there's filter changes too.

SPT -EVA Y es.

PLT Thereare filterchanges.

SPT-EVA All right, 1/1000; let me get the little knob here
set.

CDR-EVA Okay.

03h 16 13 28 SPT-EVA 1/1000 is set.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA And let's see, you're going to want the - this

little Jobber-do, aren't you?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Let's pull it back, and I'll get the tape out of
here. All right.

CDR-EVA You didn't quite get it.

SPT-EVA Yes, I can't push myself away or I'm going to hit

these in - instruments.
3768

034 16 13 50 ,CDR-EVA Okay. I got it.

SPT-EVA I've got nothing to work against without dinging

the alignment on both of them.

CDR-EVA (Laughter).

SPT-EVA As I recall, that was that same problem last time.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 16 14 06 SPT-EVA Alignment is still perfect. Good. I guess we

don't see Story and those guys until Goldstone
again, huh?

CDR-EVA I didn't hear what he said was next.

SPT-EVA Well, I would _magine; we picked them up on

Goldstone now - or before. Or is it Guam? No.

CDR-EVA Well, we Just left Vanguard, so we're coming up -

If we miss Tananarive, our next chance would be
Guam and then either Hawaii or Goldstone.

034 16 14 48 SPT-EVA Okay. We've got i/i000 set in.

PLT 0kay. And - -

SPT-EVA Why don't I read an S020 for you? Little extra

data won't hurt.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA *** trick. Jer, need you to hold my feet ; this

is a two-handed operation, I'm afraid.

CDR-EVA Okay. I 'm pushing down on you.

PLT Don't touch it (laughter). Okay, you want to give

me a new reading.

034 16 15 21 SPT-EVA 84.5.

PLT 84.5?

SPT-EVA Yes.
 3769

•SPT-EVA Let me put that thing down in there again. Boy,

that thing is really faint.

034 16 16 09 PLT Okay, now the lights are on; I turned the lights
on, so they should be on in the FAS. Sort of think
they're trying to anticipate any problems that
might come up here when we hit darkness.

CDB-EVA Yes.

PLT Should be ready Just to press right on with it.

And I'm going to let - If I - I remember correctly
from the first EVA, S020 should run right on to
darkness.

SPT-EVA No, they go ESS.

PLT They do?

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Okay, Bill - -

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA What's our next - I mean, how long is our T025

window, 5 minutes and something?

PLT No, it's - Yes, it's about 5 minutes and lO seconds.

CDR-EVA Yes, and then when's the next one? At sunrise?

PLT At - No, I think the following sunset.

I CDR-EVAOkay.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDE-EVA That 's right.

PLT 57 ••• - -

034 16 16 53 SPT-EVA Just plain old 233 type.

PLT And they're about 5-minute windows. And -

CDI_-EVA Well, that camera is only seeing - Is that seeing

all around the occulting disk?
3770

•SPT-EVA Yes, it is; sure.

PLT Yes.

SPT-EVA Yes, they've got 25-degree field of view or so.

PLT Yes.

SPT-EVA As I recall; something like that.

SPT-EVA Boy, I sure could use a handrail over here.

CDR-EVA Yes, it would be nice.

PLT Looking forward to that T025 ops, Ed, if we - I

think if we could do it this way, I won't be talking
when you're trying to do something. I'll give
you the filter and the exposure if you' ll tell me
when it's complete. Okay?

CDR-EVA Okay. What's the next filter after A-1 at 1/1000?

034 16 17 42 PLT Okay, it should be Alfa 1 at 1/30; Alfa 2 at

4 seconds; Alfa 2 at 1 second; Alfa 3 at 1/15;
and AL - After - and then Alfa 3 at 1/500. After
Alfa 3 at 1/500, we switch to Bravo for about
seven exposures, looks like - -

034 16 17 59 CDR/SPT Okay.

EVA

SPT-EVA We got the idea.

PLT And so forth.

SPT-EVA Are any of them timed exposures? Manual timing?

PLT 4 seconds.

CDR-EVA Well, there's a 4-second and a 1-second - -

PLT I'll have to give you those, anything that's more

than 1 second. You could select 1 second.

CDR-EVA That's right. You can select 1 up there.

SPT-EVA Okay.
 3771

034 16 18 18 .PLT And let's see. One, two, three - There are only
three 4-second exposures in the whole kit and
caboodle. So we ought to be able to press fairly
rapidly through that.

SPT-EVA Did you write down the S020 temperatures?

PLT Yes, I did.

SPT-EVA Okay. Let me give you one more before we start

onto this frame.

PLT Okay, it was 84.5 degrees at 16:15. What is it

now?

SPT-EVA Well, hold on.

CDR-EVA You need a holder, don't you?

SPT-EVA Well, maybe I can - -

CDR-EVA Okay, l've got you; it's no problem. Can you reach
it all right?

SI_2-EVA I got to rotate a little more to my right.

CDR-EVA All right.

034 16 18 57 SPT-EVA There we are.

CDR-EVA Got you.

SPT-EVA Thank you.

PLT Okay, we need to get ready to put S020 to stowage.

SPT-EVA 8_.2.

PLT 84.2. And if you can put S020 to stowage now.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA And Just raise them to T020.

CDR-EVA That's what I figured I was going to be doing.

034 16 30 07 SPT-EVA Okay, Just keep your hips forward. And your back
forward. Oop! Here; Just a minute. Let me lean
forward and help you a little bit.

CDR-EVA I'm about to kick the clipboard, too.

SPT-EVA Okay, move your feet - -

CDR-EVA I've got to be a little bit more careful.

r SPT-EVA Can you move your feet out? All right, I think
your head's okay now. Okay, you're okay, Jer.
Okay, now it'd be best turning the other way.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA With your right arm in back towards me - You don't

have this - Take a - ro - rotation to your left.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Now let me get my own feet in here so I can manage

the thing for you.

CDR-EVA We managed to get my umbilical over it, but I think

when I take it off, I can swing it around the
umbilical.

SPT-EVA Yes.

032 16 31 06 SPT-EVA Okay?

PLT Okay, I'll continue reading this Nikon ops to give

you sort of a feel for what they have in mind.
3782

SPT-EVA Okay. Oh, boy.

PLT It starts off like this. You can put it in any

context you want to. EV-1 retrieve VC tree, take
it to airlock module and stow. Retrieve Nikon;
egress airlock module and ingrees VF foot restraints.
Attach Nikon to VS clothesline and transfer camera
to VT - Victor Tango?

CDR-EVA Yes, that's the transfer station.

PLT Roger.

034 16 31 43 SPT-EVA So we wait until you get to the - down to the

transfer station before we transfer anything?

CDR-EVA Apparently so.

PLT Okay, EV-2 tether Nikon, remove from clothesline.

Take photos from all workstations. Use following
settings. Okay. I've got the settings here.

SPT-EVA Go ahead.

PLT Earth scenes or objects in the Sun, 1/250. Objects

in the shade, 1/125 - 1/125. Document discoloration,
shawdowing effects, twin-pole sunshade installation,
0WS SAS, D024, clipboard with the $228, sail mate-
rial, $230, CSM, and other targets of opportunity.
Then transfer the Nikon to EV-1.

034 16 32 39 SPT-EVA I think you got your clothesline looking good there.

CDR-EVA Yes, I think we blundered into the right configuration.

SPT-EVA Okay, let me get - Well, now wait a minute. No,

Jerry; you see, I'm going to have to hook your
umbilical down like this - -

CDR-EVA Oh, yes.

SPT-EVA - - so you're going to have to pass it around

this side.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Going to have to go over it.

 3783

•CDR-EVA No problem.

034 16 33 ii SPT-EVA Okay, I will give you a little loop there you can
pass it through. There you go.

SPT-EVA Now I'll" get your I_U clamped now. And our friendly
DAC here, too. Okay, I think I will try and move
out there.

CDR-EVA (Laughter) Oh, no! The TO - the clothesline,

can you give me a little back pressure on the
clothesline?

SPT-EVA Yes, Just a minute. I - I got - got the DAC.

Hold on.

CDR-EVA All right.

CDR-EVA Well; okay, we are hooked around that, hooked on

the sail. See if you can flip a loop down toward
it.

SPT-EVA Why don't you put your one end -

CDR-EVA Yes, l'm about to get it.

SPT-EVA There it is. Okay. Deploy that clothesline hook

and I'ii get that thing pulled up.

034 16 34 27 CDR-EVA Okay, the hook is deployed.

SPT-EVA Okay. Very good. You can use that as a temporary

storage hook ; that' s locked.

CDR-EVA Ah ! It won 't lock down .... given ...

SPT-EVA Okay, so now I pass you down a tree. Let us -

Let's get squared away on what rotates where. Here.
Got to come this way. Okay. So what you'll be
doing is, you'll be pulling on the clear rope whem
it comes time to - to pass anything down.

034 16 35 30 CDR-EVA Okay, Bill, the clothesline is rigged. And Ed's

putting the VC tree on the clothesline now.

PLT Okay, let me get back to my book here. I Just

inhibited CMG control about 5 minutes late. Okay.
3784

•CDR-EVA Okay. You got it hooked over T025, Bill?

SPT-EVA Or it's Ed.

CDR-EVA I mean - Sorry, Ed.

SPT-EVA Wrong crewman. Okay, Just a minute here. I'll

take care of that as soon as I get everything
hooked up.

034 16 36 00 PLT You had a 50/50 chance, Jer.

CDR-EVA (Laughter)

PLT Well, let me find my place here.

SPT-EVA Man, what a maze.

CDR-EVA It might not hurt to let that string by there as

long as we don't put any big pressure on it.

SPT-EVA Well, that's all right. I can - I can move it.

PLT You better give me an _ status check to make - -

CDR-EVA Are you supposed to be putting that tree on or I'm

supposed to be sending experiments up to you?

CDR-EVA I'm supposed to be sending them up to you, Ed.

SPT-EVA Yes, you're right. Man, that's a long time.

PLT Okay, let me go ahead and read this.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 16 36 40 PLT All right, I'm going to start from the first; I'll
read fast. Retrieve VC clothesline hook, attach
to right glove and lock; egress airlock module;
translate to VC. This, of course, is Jer. Egress
VC foot restraints ; deploy VC clothesline; attach
bracket if required. Attach clothesline hooks to
bracket; lock hook; clamp own LSU at approximately
9 feet.

034 16 37 00 CDR-EVA Okay, that's all done.

 3?85

.PLT Okay, EV-I would be removing slack and clsmping

EV-2 LSU at the forward. Clamp at approximately
31 feet. Okay, EV-2, straighten clothesline and
EV-1 assist EV-2. EV-2, _4U status check. EV-1,
EMU status check.

CDR -EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA We'll give you that.

034 16 37 18 CDR-EVA EV-2, 3.7 and no lights.

03h 16 37 22 SPT-EVA 3.63, no lights, EV-1.

PLT Okay. Now. EV-2 verify ATM positioned at S054.

CDR-EVA Okay, it's _lmost there.

PLT If - if ATM not positioned to S05h, panel 160

POWER, two, to ENABLE - You know how to do that.

034 16 37 42 CDR-EVA Okay. POWERs are ENABLEd; ROLLs, ENABLEd.

PLT And EV-I transfer clothesline hooks to VC.

SPT-EVA It's in work.

034 16 37 58 CDR-EVA Okay, ROLL, INHIBIT.

CDR-EVA Okay, did you clamp the clothesline up there, Ed?

I guess that there is nothing to clamp though, is
there ?

SPT-EVA No, this thing is all -

CDR-EVA A]] right. Okay, I have the hooks, Bill.

PLT Okay. Push S054 handle to unlock door and open

door.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

034 16 38 45 PLT Attach one clothesline hook to S054 tether ring

and lock.

CDR-EVA A]I right; it's in work.

CDR-EVA Won't quite do it. Okay.

3786

• PLT Okay, that's complete?

CDR-EVA
Yes.

PLT Remove S054 by pressing button, turning the handles

counterclockwise, and then pulling.

03h 16 39 17 CDR-EVA Okay. It's out.

PLT Attach second clothesline hook to lanyard on bottcm

corner and lock hook.

CDR-EVA All right, it 's in work.

PLT As soon as he gets back, EV-I transfers S054 to

VS and EV-2 assists.

SPT-EVA Now what about the use of the DAC? That will have
to wait until daytime of course.

CDR-EVA Okay, Ed, you can ring it back now.

SPT-EVA Okay. Just keep it a little bit taut but not -

don't want to hit it on the handrail there. There
we go.

03h 16 h0 09 CDR-EVA Okay, let's stop and pull it tight and damp out
the oscillations.

SPT-EVA There you go.

SPT-EVA Okay, let me move it a little bit forward.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Okay, now hold it again.

CDR-EVA Got it.

SPT-EVA Gosh, this is no sweat.

CDR-EVA It's not as quite slick as the boom, but it sure

is Just as easy.

SPT-EVA Yes. Okay, let go.

CDR-EVA All right.

 3787

034 16 _0 36 CDR-EVA Okay, Bill, I'm going to close up the hatch now
on 54.

PLT Close S054 door; lock and verify white flag visible.
And EV-1 will be removing hooks frc_ lanyard.
Place S054 on VC tree and lock, and release the
second clothesline hook after the VC tree is on
and locked.

CDR-EVA Okay, Bill, what do I rotate to next?

034 16 40 55 PLT Panel 160, POWER, two, ENABLE if required. ROLL,

ENABLE. CANISTER ROTATION, RIGHT, to align S056.

CDR-EVA Okay, ccming up.

PLT And you soon - Ed, as soon as you get that 54

stowed, you transfer the hooks back to the VC.

SPT-EVA Yes, it's in work. Hold on.

CDR-EVA S056, I hope you got some decent pictures, after

all the trouble we had.

SPT-EVA l'm looking forward to seeing the - the ... - -

034 16 41 32 CDR-EVA ROLL is INHIBIT and I'm opening the door.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Lot of good data coming back in here.

PLT Attach one clothesline hook to S056 and lock; then

you can get the door open.

CDR-EVA Okay. Let me get the hooks out there. Put things
away up there.

SPT-EVA Get to those hooks out there. Okay, Jer, if you

want to pull on the - the clear rope.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA Hold on. Let me - let me guide it so we don't

get T025. Okay.

SPT-EVA Now, Jer, I guess we ought to decide to try to get

some DAC photos of you transferring out to the
Sun end and the work at the Sun end.
3788

• CDR-EVA Yes, probably so.

SPT-EVA Going to the _T and around the corner and sending

the stuff down.

03h 16 h2 37 CDR-EVA Okay, I'm taking 56 out now.

PLT Roger.

03h 16 _2 h5 CDR-EVA And the first tether hook is installed and locked.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Tell me Just before sunrise, will you, Bill?

03h 16 h2 58 PLT Okay, we got 16 minutes to go.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Okay, Ed, take it away.

SPT-EVA Okay, if you'll guide her, I'll pull on the -

the striped one.

SPT-EVA Before we do that Sun-end work, Jer, we 're going

to have to get T025 out of there.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA So we're going to have to regroup. Get that T025

stuff down and then - Trouble is, you know, you've
such a short window for it. We got two more
data-take sessions. That's going to screw up the
time line. All right - -

03h 16 h3 36 PLT Transfer S056 to VS; you are in process of doing.

Place S056 on VC tree and lock. You're getting
ready to do.

CDR-EVA Okay, I'm going to go close the door and move the
canisters.

PLT Okay, EV-2, close S056 door and lock and verify
white flag visible. Panel 56 - or 160. ROLL,
_ABLE. CANISTER ROTATION, RIGHT to align S052.

CDR-EVA Caming up.

 3789

.PLT And as soon as Ed stows the 56 tree [sic], he'll

send the hooks back down.

034 16 4h h4 CDR-EVA Okay, I got the first hook.

SPT-EVA Think this clothesline is Just as slick as a -

as a boom.

CDR-EVA Yes, I think the boom's a little bit smoother

operation. But this certainly is workable. It's
an excellent backup, I think.

SPT-EVA Yes. I 'm glad we went both ways though.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Oh, yes; could have had a boom problem. Okay,

and, Jer, I assume you're pressing on with S052?

CDR-EVA Right. I'm hooking it up now; and locked. And I

got one more to hook up and we'll send her back.

PLT Okay. Transfer S052 to VF; place S052 on VC tree

and lock. Remove both clotheslines ' hooks, et
cetera. And I - I'll wait. H-alpha l's coming
up next.

034 16 45 38 CDR-EVA Okay, Ed.

SPT-EVA All right. Here comes a bright coronal transient

along with many quickies. Yes, I th_nk we got
this one pretty well. We'll Just have to be a
little careful as we get in close. Just keep her
taut like you are. That's good.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay, I got her, Jer.

PLT It suddenly dawned on me that we're going to have

a T025 data-take opportunity here at 16:57.

CDR-EVA That's a sunrise opportunity then, isn't it?

PLT Yes. It's about l0 minutes off. We're in good

shape.

i
379O

• SPT-EVA Tell you what; Jer, you think we can get the
H-alpha in this next l0 minutes and you can
whistle back up here?

CDR-EVA Yes, we ought to be able to do that.

SPT-EVA All right. Let me get 52 in here.

034 16 46 37 CDR-EVA Okay, ROLL, ENABLE, Bill.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA And rotating to the right; that's H-alpha 1.

PLT Right ; correct - right.

034 16 47 00 CDR-EVA Okay, ROLL, INHIBITed.

PLT Okay. Okay, now I Just see no sense in reading

this. You know it better than I do.

CDR-EVA Yes, Just kind of check us along. I'll tell you

what I do as I'm going and you ask me if - if
there's something important that it looks like
that I haven't mentioned; Just mention it.

SPT-EVA Probably the one thing you ought to make sure

before you leave there, Jer, is you got the ROLL
configured properly and the control for the
roll. Check ... - -

PLT I'll - I'll check him on that. That's the last

thing here.

SPT-EVA That way you won't have to stop by there on the

way out.

PLT Okay, now you're going - you're getting H-alpha

out now, Jerry.

CDR-EVA Right; it's out, and one hook is on. The other
one 's coming up.

PLT And Ed'll be putting H-alpha 1 on the VC tree.

CDR-EVA Okay, Ed.

034 16 _8 12 SPT-EVA Okay, I'm pulling on the striped fellow.

 3791

•PLT Okay. Panel 160, when you have the time, Jer.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA Going to let you help me guide this fellow.

SPT-EVA Okay, not quite as much resistance, Jet.

CDR-EVA Okay. I think you're getting more from those

tangled ropes than you are from me.

SPT-EVA I think you're right. Yes, we sure are. Yes,

that thing has made a couple whifferdills around
itself there.

PLT Okay, I'm going to give myself about 5 minutes

for settling time here, too, on this - We're out
about 2 - 0.2 degrees.

SPT-EVA Okay, now. Just a minute here, Jer.

03h 16 49 01 CDR-EVA Okay, I'm going to close H-alpha i. How much

time is left for T025?

-- PLT We've got about - See, 7 minutes before we have a

data take.

CDR-EVA All right, I guess I better get back up there.

PLT Okay, that's panel 160, ROLL, _ABLE. Let's see -

You got ROLL, INHIBITed now, right?

03h 16 49 15 CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay, POWER, INHIBIT -two switches, POWER,

INHIBIT.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Okay, and EV-1 is retrieving VS clothesline hook

from inside - Just a second.

SPT-EVA I got it.

PLT We got a transfer.

CDR-EVA We still got a couple more experiments to go here,

don 't we ?
3792

•PLT Well, - -

SPT-EVA Not - not at that station, we don't.

CDR-EVA We don't ? Okay.

PLT That - -

SPT-EVA We got all four.

PLT That should be it. I'm Just trying to see here - -

CDR-EVA That 's right.

PLT The flow here is the next thing that happens after
Ed retrieves the H-alpha 1 there. Retrieves VS
clothesline hook from inside hatch handle. Connect
VC clothesline hook to - -

SPT-EVA Yes, but that's if we are going right into the VS

operation - -

PLT Right.

SPT-EVA- - andwe'renot.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Fine.

CDR-EVA But we'll come up and get it.

PLT All right.

SPT-EVA No, we'll probably Just let Jar go right back

down, and we'll do the operation the way it's
specified, but we'll Just have an intermediate
where Jer Just moves back up here and we work
it. Then he goes back down there and picks up
again.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Now, Bill, what does it say I do with the 'clothes-

line extender here?
 3793

034 16 50 12 .PLT Let's see. All right, I'm going to read the procedure.

CDR -EVA Okay.

PLT After POWER, INHIBIT, if Ed plays with the hooks

up there, transfer VS clothesline to VC.

CDR-EVA Okay, we'll say that's been done.

PLT Connect VS clothesline hook to right glove.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Release hooks from VS clothesline.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Connect VC clothesline hooks together.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Restow VC clothesline bracket.

CDR-EVA Restow the bracket, okay.

034 16 50 39 PLT Straighten VS clothesline.

CDR-EVA So all you have to do for me then, Ed, is send

the hooks down and I'll hook them together.

SPT-EVA We're going to be sending them right back up

here though, afterwards, in order to - to get the
VS hooks sent down to you, won't we?

CDR-EVA Well, I'm coming up there for T025. I'll get the
hooks while I'm up there.

SPT-EVA Well, okay. I was thinking we might do it the way

they specified, Just for sport.

CDR-EVA Why?

SPT-EVA You're going to have to go back - All right - -

CDR-EVA I won't have to go back.

SPT-EVA All right, I won't argue. It makes no difference;

I won 't argue.
379_,

034 16 51 15 "PLT Okay, our next opportunity opens up at 16:57:04.

It's 16:51:19. Got about 6 minutes to go and you
will probably - You've got Alfa 1 in position.
I think I heard you wanted to - to recheck on the
alignment.

SPT-EVA Well, we can't do that.

PLT That's right; you can't. It's dark.

CDR-EVA Okay, Just fold up tight, Ed, and then I'm going
to fold this and you got your thing - your - -

SPT-EVA I got to hook this under - under the clamp. Let's

see •

034 16 51 44 CDR-EVA Okay, mine's folded up.

SPT-EVA Wonder where the heck - -

CDR-EVA The clamps are up there to your right.

SPT-EVA Well, there is one clamp up there and then there's

one for the Sun end. Yes, this one is the one
over here.

CDR-EVA That 's right.

034 16 51 55 CDR-EVA Okay, I'm going to start back.

SPT-EVA All right; Just don't get too far until I get this
thing squared away. I can change your umbilical.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 16 52 14 SPT-EVA Okay, come on.

PLT Okay, and also -

CDR-EVA All right now. Where is that darn clipboard?

I don't want to damage it.

SPT-EVA There's ... If you want to take a look at it,

right at the top of your umbilical and to the - -

CDR-EVA Oh, I see it; okay.

 3795

SPT-EVA Oh, this darn DAC. DAC was tough to contend with
in training and it's tough to contend with now.

034 16 53 07 CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay, let me give you some more umbilical in there

for you.

CDR-EVA If you can GCA me in here.

SPT-EVA Yes, Just come on ahead and straight forward.

Keep - keep your profile - Okay, stop, stop, stop!

CDR-EVA (Laughter)

SPT-EVA Move your feet toward your toes. Rotate towards

your toes. Okay, now Just slowly slide in here.

CDR-EVA (Chuckle )

SPT-EVA Oh, oh! Don't move back.

CDR-EVA I can't!

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA I was in the drift mode then.

SPT-EVA Yes, okay, you're in; you're good. Watch the DAC
at your right.

CDR-EVA Oh, yes. Okay, can you pull my left shoulder back
toward you?

SPT-EVA Yes.

034 16 53 44 CDR-EVA There we go.

SPT-EVA *** umbilical.

CDR-EVA Very good.

SPT-EVA Now to get in the shoes. You better wait until

I get out.

CDR-EVA Right. That 's always a good idea.

r-
3796

SIY_-EVA Which means I got to straighten up a little bit.

It means I'm going to pull you around a little
bit.

CDR-EVA It's a]1 right.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy. It's left - it's left you in a little

tight in here.

CDR-EVA Yes, it did; I noticed that.

PLT Okay, in about 3 minutes.

034 16 5h l0 CDR-EVA We'll make it.

SPY-EVA All right, Just a minute. Move -move forward

sc_e more if you could. There we go. Boy, you
can't have any bad pressure on that thing at all.

SPY-EVA Okay. Let's see you hop in there, Jer. And we

got a few more friends in here with us. A little
good - a little good data.

CDR-EVA Yes, indeed.

034 16 5h 32 CDR-EVA Okay, Bill, I'm in the shoes. We're ready - - A

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA - - to start T025 at the proper time.

PLT The first exposure will be alf - filter Alfa 2,

seconds. And I'll give you a count.

SPT-EVA Okay. Filter Alfa 2, 4 seconds.

SPY-EVA All right, let me get Alfa 2 set.

CDR-EVA And you'll have to hand me the little plunger.

I've got it.

SPT-EVA All right, now let's get this set up for time over
here. And get me set up, also.

SPT-EVA No, it isn't - Let's see.

CDR-EVA How's that?

 3797

034 16 55 15 SPT-EVA Yes, that's set up on time already.

CDR-EVA Very good. We're ready to go, Bill, when the

window opens.

PLT 0kay, 2 minutes.

CDR-EVA As a matter of fact, even if the alignment is off

before sunrise, it doesn't m_1_e any difference.

PLT That's right. I mean, you're - you've got a ... -

event period here, I guess.

CDR-EVA Sure.

SPT-EVA Can I move my right shoulder back over on - -

CDR-EVA Oh, yes. We've got lots of room.

SPT-EVA Okay, what I want to show you is, see that thing
up there?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA That's the one I was thinking of cutting.

034 16 55 40 CDR-EVA Yes. If you can get to it, that'd be good.

SPT-EVA Yes. I think that's all that Velcro there. Looks

like the rest of it's all Velcro.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

034 16 55 54 SPT-EVA Okay. Let's see; I'm doing - I got a - 3.65 and
no lights, for EV-1.

PLT Okay.

034 16 56 13 CDR-EVA Okay, and I got a 3.7 and no lights.

PLT All right, if you'll stand by, 57:0h I'll give you
.a mark to start my timer countdown. 30 seconds
off.

CDR-EVA Okay. You want to make that mark for the 4-second
exposure too?

PLT Yes, sir.

3798

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Might as well get started on it.

SPT-EVA What the heck was I looking at here?

034 16 56 53 SPT-EVA Oh, here comes the blue horizon.

CDR-EVA Yes, sir.

PLT Stand by.

SPT-EVA That 's beautiful.

CDR-EVA I think it's a little too soon.

SPT-EVA Well, they think they - I think they're after it.

PLT Stand by.

SPT-EVA Okay.

034 16 57 04 PLT MARK.

034 16 57 07 CDR-EVA It's on.

034 16 57 08 PLT MARK.

034 16 57 09 CDR-EVA Okay, it's closed.

PLT Okay, the next one is 1 second, Alfa 2; same filter.

034 16 57 21 CDR-EVA Okay, that's set. Here it goes, open and closed.

PLT Alfa 3, 1/15. 1/15.

034 16 57 44 CDR-EVA Okay. Open and closed.

PLT Alfa 3, 1/500.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 16 58 04 CDR-EVA Open and closed.

PLT Bravo filter.

CDR-EVA *** see my watch.

 3799

PLT Bravo i.

SPT-EVA If you can, swing that fellow over towards me again.

PLT You're doing great.

PLT C_otto get the axes aligned - -

SPT-EVA That's good, Jer.

CDR-EVA Take the pressure off so I can swing it towards

you again. There you go.

PLT Bravo l, 1/30.

SPT-EVA Okay, now m_e sure that Velcro gets down there,
because that thing could swing around and centrif-
ugal force might throw that thing out.

CDR-EVA It 's around.

CDR-EVA Okay, he's got the Bravo filter out now and he's
putting it in.

SPT-EVA Want Bravo what?

PLT 1/30. Bravo 1.

034 16 58 50 SPT-EVA Bravo 1 is set and - Oh, here comes the Sun.

CDR-EVA Get your visor down.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay. T/8 - or f/8 -

SPT-EVA Well, hold on; we've got to move the friendly

DAC up to its location.

PLT Okay.

034 17 09 33 PLT Says, EV-1 remove DAC and attach to VS clothes-

line hooks and lock. Is that what you wanted?

SPT-EVA Attach the DAC to the clothesline?

PLT That's what it says. You said read the words on -

on the DAC. I didn't know quite what all you
wanted. I figured you Just wanted a setting, but
it also has that in there, too.

SPT-EVA Well, hold on here.

PLT I can help - -

CDR-EVA It's a handheld - It's a handheld. You know that,

didn't you? It's handheld photos.

SPT-EVA Okay, in other words, they had us hook it up here

at this location as a temporary stowage.

032 17 i0 06 CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Huh?

PLT Right.

SPT-EVA All right. Press on with the words.

38o8

PLT Okay - there's - the words are, EV-I remove DAC

and attach to VS clothesline hooks and lock. And
then EV-2 to transfer DAC to VT, remove DAC from
VS clothesline, verify settings, which I'll give
you again later.

SPT-EVA 0 - Okay, let's get Jer down there first and - -

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA - - get his umbilical straightened out.

CDR-EVA Did you want to take photos as I go out?

SPT-EVA That is what I thought they were after, but

apparently not.

PLT That's what I thought.

CDR-EVA Well, you could - we can do that. There's no

reason why we can't.

PLT Yes....

SPT-EVA I couldn't get them last time because the DAC -

the DAC failed. All right, let's do it. Now
hold on, let me get the umbilicals squared away
here. I'll Just stay here until you're ready.

CDR-EVA I'm out of harm's way here, now.

SPT-EVA Afraid our umbilical situation is - requires a

little work. Oh, boy.

034 17 l0 57 CC Ed, Houston.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CC You don't need any DAC photos until Jer gets into
the transfer workstation.

CDR-EVA You don't want any photos of me moving out there?

CC No, sir.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Hey, Just a minute, Jer. Oh, well, you can - you

around behind the loop.

SPT-EVA Oh, those extra whifferdills we made up here is what

SPT-EVA No, you don't have to. Yes, you should be, but
that's what I was trying to pull out before.
There you go. Apparently it was - got in a knot
before.

03_ 17 ll 57 CDR-EVA No, you had a loop - Yours goes out into a loop
and then mine goes back behind the loop is all.

SPT-EVA I see. Okay.

CDR-EVA You ready?

CC Bill, Houston.

SPT-EVA Go ahead.

CC Bill, you're getting none of the normal DAC - none

at all.

CDR-EVA Got loose now?

SPT-EVA Yes, you' re okay •

 3811

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA What I had to do was give you a little more play

on the clothesline itself.

CDR-EVA Yes, I felt it was kind of pulling me back.

SPT-EVA ... packed in there tight.

CDR-EVA Boy, I'm glad we didn't have to change any of

these EPEA things out here.

SPT-EVA That would have been a workout.

Come back here a minute; we're getting that
around the occulting disk.

SPT-EVA Yea! It's locked.

PLT Good. Okay - -

SPT-EVA I hate to tell you this, but the clothesline from

point to point describes a perfect straight line
through T025.

CDR-EVA Right. We're going to have to really be careful

with that.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay, now I'm going to read the DAC procedures

• SPT-EVA I think I'm going to try that clothesline hook

first. I'm going to leave this wrist tether on
it, Jet. You may need it.

CDR-EVA Okay. Good.

PIY2 And then transfer the DAC to the VT.

SPT-EVA I'll tell you what else let's do; let's not hook
the two clothesline hooks together or we're going
to be hurting for a rack to work around here.

CDR-EVA Yes.

034 17 19 15 CC Skylab, we show you having plenty of time to realign

T025 to the next window if you need to.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Roger, Story. Thank you. If we're careful, we

won't need to.

CC You'll have the time; and going over the hill

here, all your systems looking good.

CDR-EVA Thank you, Story.

SPT-EVA Thank you, Story. Talk to you later. Just a

minute there before you pull on it; okay.

SPT-EVA Okay, going on the poles; looks good.

SPT-EVA Ah, wait a minute - wait a minute, Jer. What we

had - What you got to watch out for is these
darn loops. When they start swinging around one
another, boy, they can really get tangled up in
a hurry.

CDR-EVA Oh, yes.

SPT-EVA So we'll Just give it a little tug. Okay, there

we go. Yes, it works a little easier if I keep
the things spread. No different than the water.

CDR-EVA Now, where did you say to put the DAC, Bill?

034 17 20 17 PLT Okay, transfer the DAC to the VT, remove the DAC
from the VS clothesline, and film the following -
I'll give you the - Have you got it yet, Jer?

•CDR-EVA Yes, I've got it. Let me get it tethered to me,

so I don't - -

PLT Okay, I've got the settings for you when you're
ready.

SPT-EVA If you want to, tether a tether to the - tether

the two tethers together; you've got lots of length
then to work with.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA There we go.

SPT-EVA As if I had to tell the smart CDR something like

that.

CDR-EVA Right.

CDR-EVA All right, it's done.

03h 17 20 53 PLT Okay. Verify f/8 - or T-8, 1/250, and 12 frames

per second. Focus on infinity.

CDR-EVA f/8, T-8.

CDR-EVA They've got T on that cRmera lens there.

CDR-EVA Yes. 10-millimeter lens, right?

PLT Right.

CDR-EVA All right, at f/8 and infinity.

PLT 1/250 per second.

CDR-EVA Let me check that.

SPT-EVA Boy, that really gave me a start. I bumped the

front of my PSU up against this light here and
chipped off a little paint and it flew off in such
a hurry, it looked like water droplets coming off.
It had me thinking for a split second there.

032 17 21 23 PLT And 12 frames a second, Jer.

CDR-EVA 12.

PLT And verify focuson infinity. _-_

FAS and EVA trail for 1 minute. Golly, that's
an awful long - Of course, you don't have to hold
the button down.

SPT-EVA Yes - Yes, I do.

PLT At 12 frames a second?

CDR-EVA Oh, that's right. That's right. Now, somehow

I've got to twist around 90 degrees here.

034 17 22 44 PLT We've got about i0 minutes more to go on our S020

exposure, Ed.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT i0 minutes and 35 seconds to be exact.

SPT-EVA And let me figure ahead and see which one we can
pick up next. Probably not - We can't get the
30;we'llhaveto get the - -

PLT No, we Just - we just go on. They Just apparently

want this done cumulatively.

SPT-EVA I thought the only one they wanted done cumulatively

was the 60. Why don't you take a - read a few
words there when you get a chance, Bill.
Because - -

PLT I will.

SPT-EVA - - that was my understanding of it.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Somehow, we got this thing on upside down. When

I hold the handle, the camera's upside down.

SPT-EVA Can you - -

CDR-EVA Let's see if I can twist it around.

3818

.SPT-EVA Yes, usually you can make a 180 with it, although
it might be on the wrong side for you then.

034 17 23 36 CDR-EVA No, I think it's okay. It's Just that it's - this
darn EVA bracket is so hard to move.

CDR-EVA There we go.

CDR-EVA Okay, here you go, Ed.

PLT Jer, what - what are you doing?

CDR-EVA I'm taking pictures.

PLT Okay. Good. I thought you were sending the camera

back there maybe.

CDR-EVA Tell me when my minute's up.

PLT Okay. You're burning film now?

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay.

PLT Ah, come on. I know where - I had that S020 there
just a minute ago. There it is.

thing back down - -

SPT-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA We've got some whifferdills, but we'll straighten

them out when we go to get in.

CDR-EVA Okay. Oh, man, what a sight!

SPT-EVA What are you looking at?

034 17 25 59 CDR-EVA I'm just kind of going down the whole workshop.

SPT-EVA We're running now.

PLT Okay. I'll give you a call at 20 seconds.

SPT-EVA Hope this thing's got a good wide field of view.

PLT It's reasonably wlde. Stand by -

034 17 26 22 PLT MARK.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay, CSM for 20 seconds.

CDR-EVA CSM, hmmm.

CDR-EVA That's a different story.

PLT And they also want the ATM Sun end.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

PLT For 20 seconds.

3820

,CDR-EVA There's no way I can see the CSM from here.

PLT Well, Just get it - I guess you're supposed to

get it later.:

CDR-EVA Well, maybe I can just move around.

SPT-EVA I think when you get out there on the Sun end,
you may be able to, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA You're going to have to lean over, though.

034 17 27 22 SPT-EVA Boy, there sure are some good shots I'd like to
get here.

CDR-EVA Okay - -

SPT-EVA Looking right down this thing is beautiful.

CDR-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Okay, Bill. I'll do 20 seconds of the Sun end now.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA I'm still at 1/250, and I think it's still probably

pretty good.

PLT Yes, they don't indicate any change for any of

those. Just tell me when you start shooting.

CDR-EVA All right.

034 17 27 45 CDR-EVA MARK. I'm running.

PLT Okay.

PLT Stand by -

03h 17 28 05 PLT MARK. Terminate.

CDR-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA I had to run a little bit longer because I panned

too slow. It's okay; a slow pan is better than
fast. Okay, what else is on the schedule?
 3821

•PLT CSM is all.

CDR-EVA Okay. I'll have to get that when I go up over

the - -

PLT Okay. See that the DAC pushbutton is off, pushpower

off. Make sure the thing is not running.

CDR-EVA Yes.

034 17 28 31 PLT Attach DAC to clothesline and lock. It says

transfer DAC to VF, but I think probably what you
want to do is hold that - hold onto that until
you get out there.

CDR-EVA Yes. You know, I'm Just going to have to go over

on the other - the other side of the ATM, and I
don't know what there is to hold on to over there
to get this picture.

SPT-EVA Yes, you're going to have to plant - hold on the

solar shield there and see what there is in the
way of handholds, then. I don't think there's
very - very much, Jer.

CDR-EVA What if I just go right over the top here? Right

over the Sun end of the can.

SPT-EVA Hold on. Let me take a look and get turned around
here.

CDR-EVA That'd be the safest way from a - a solar-panel

aspect.

SPT-EVA Yes. Yes, "I think if you - -

CDR-EVA I'll Just try to be careful not to stuff my foot

in any apertures.

SPT-EVA I thought you meant along the perimeter, Jer.

034 17 29 24 CDR-EVA That's what I'm saying. If I go around the

perimeter, then my umbilical has to get there, too.
So I'm worried about getting it on a solar panel.

SPT-EVA All right, hold up a minute. Let me - Let me try

to manage it for you. I'm not in a position to
do that right now.
3822 _-"

•CDR-EVA Okay. There's 80 - about 78 percent of the film

left.

PLT Oh, that's good.

CDR-EVA Tell me when you're ready, Ed.

SPT-EVA Yes; wait a minute.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Got to get my umbilical squared away here.

034 17 30 21 CC Skylab, we're back with you through the Vanguard

for ll minutes.

CDR/SPT- Roger, Story.

EVA

SPT-EVA Okay, I've got your umbilical, Jerry. You're clear.

Go ahead.

CDR-EVA
0kay.

CC And, Ed, Just for planning, we need to terminate

S020 in about B minutes.

SPT-EVA All right, we'll Just switch on to the next one.

PLT B0 minutes. The next priority is a B0-minute

exposure; so we'll have to back-to-back it also.

SPT-EVA Story, would _hey like to pick up the next exposure,

which is shorter than a B0-minute, and have it all
in one sequence or press on with the B0, which
is going to have us break that one up too?

CC Like you to press on with the 30. And even though

you may not have time to finish it, Just go right
down that checklist there.

SPT-EVA Okay; will do.

i

CC And on those, you can initiate them right at sunrise

and terminate at sunset. And don't worry about
going through the atmosphere.

0B_ 17 31 ll SPT-EVA Okay. I thought - thought we had to. The cue

card specified it. We'll trust that ....
 3823
/_

• CC So that'll get you a little more time.

SPT-EVA Very good. Thank you, Story. How you doing, Jar?

CDR-EVA Well, I don't have anything to hold onto is my

problem. I got a beautiful view of the command
module. I got no way of photographing it. Yes,
I got two hands holding on and nothing to bold
the camera with.

SPT-EVA Can you get yourself all the way to the other edge
so you can put your foot in - on the hack side on
the - the solar shield there?

034 17 31 4h CDR-EVA That's why I'm looking to see what - what there
is over here to put my feet on. There isn't
anything down there. I think I've got a hunch
here. I'm going to waste a little film, hut I'm
going to have to punch the camera with one hand
and then dump it. Cecil B. De Mille would turn
over in his grave.

SPT-EVA Well, let's see; this is all still 12 frames per

second - -
r

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA - - I believe, here.

PLT That 's affirm.

CDR-EVA I want 20 seconds, Bill?

PLT That's affirm.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay. About 1 minute for changing the S020.

CDR-EVA I'll wait until you do that, Ed.

SPT-EVA That's all right. There's no big deal there. All

I've got to do is flip it. I can do that in
nothing flat.

SPT-EVA Umbilical' s looking good.

CC Bill, Houston.
382_

•PLT Go, Story.

034 17 32 47 CC Sounds like you guys are doing it already, but we

suggest finishing up the - the DAC and the Nikon
work here. When you get done with that, it looks
like you'll come to a convenient time to run your
T025. That window starts at 17:53, and - 17:53 to
17:58. And finish up the T025 ops there in that
window. Take all the frames there.

PLT Yes, I think that's right, Story. That ought to

work out Just like that.

SPT-EVA Okay, how about 8020 here?

PLT Okay, l0 seconds.

PLT Stand by -

034 17 33 23 PLT MARK. You can go to frame n_mber 2.

(Tone)

CDR-EVAFramenumber2 is set.

PLT Okay - -

CDR-EVA Sounds like an EVENT TIMER.

PLT Yes.

SPT-EVA The alignment - Okay, the alignment is still good

but it's - let me give it to you again, if that's
what it is.

CDR-EVA Bill, I'm running.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Give me l0 seconds. I've already been running

about 10.

PLT Okay -

03h 17 33 59 PLT MARK.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay,that finishesthat up. ___

 3825

• SPT-EVA Okay, we're still looking now at about one unit

to the left and one unit up on the alignment.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Man, that was wormy!

CDR-EVA I'm coming back over the edge now.

SPT-EVA Okay, Just a second. I have to get back in m_

shoes here, Jer, so I can manage your umbilical.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA Come ahead if you want, though; it looks good.

CC Bill, Houston.

PLT Go ahead, Story.

CC We'd like that first frame of T025 to be filter

A-1 at 1/1000.

PLT When will we resume operations?

CC That'll be at 17:53, that window there.

PLT Okay, we 'll do it.

CDR-EVA See some - -

034 17 35 01 PLT Pick up with Alfa 2 at $ seconds, et cetera.

CC And we only want the sunset part of that. After

the Sun goes down about 17:58, terminate T025.
You can get it out of the way so it won't inter-
fere with your Sun end ops.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Oh, donel Okay, I think I got some real good

pictures of the commnnd module with a lot of
Earth going by underneath.

SPT-EVA Very good. Is there any way of checking to see

if that thing advanced fi]m_?

CDR-EVA Oh, yes.

3826

•SPT-EVA Is there a readout there?

CDR-EVA Oh, sure.

SPT-EVA I'd like to take a -

CDR-EVA It's got about 65 percent left on it.

SPT-EVA I could feel it running. We plan to use that?

CDR-EVA Oh, yes. We'll use as much of it as we can.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT All right. Let's see now - I'll get back on my -

SPT-EVA Probably be sending the DAC back in, huh? I think

that's our next step ...

034 17 36 03 PLT Just a second here. Transfer DAC to the - Okay.

034 17 41 41 SPT-EVA There is about - About 30 percent of the film is

left now.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer, send her back. Let's see; how are we
doing on your umbilical. That's clear. And T025.

034 17 42 05 SPT-EVA Okay. Okay, where's that coming?

CDR-EVA Pull on the striped one. Okay.

SPT-EVA Trouble is, I got two stripes looking at me, Jer,

SO - -

CDR-EVA Oh, the one in your right hand?

SPT-EVA Yes, let me get around T025. There we go.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Come on, friendly DAC.

SPT-EVA Okay, let's Just take it easy here now.

SPT-EVA Got an END-OF-FILM light, Jer.

CDR-EVA You do?

 3827

•SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA There's 40 - 30 percent left there.

SPT-EVA Well, it says end of film on the - END-OF-FILM

light is on.

CDR-EVA Oh, boy, I hope that's not really the end of film.

SPT-EVA Well, it's reading close to - not empty, but -

PLT I would go ahead and shoot it, and - you know,

don't - don't take a whole lot of time doing it,
but go ahead and use it and see if it will go
dow_.

SPT-EVA All right. Just a minute here. I got to get it

off and under onto me.

034 17 43 28 CDR-EVA I couldn't see any lights out here. I could feel
it was running, but I could hardly see the green
light, let alone a red light.

PLT Yes, it'll go ahead and run, of course.

CDR-EVA But the indicator said there was about 30 percent

left.

PLT Well, the film could be broken or the - it could

be an erroneous light indication. One of them
does that; I forget which.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Tell me when you want some more words. We're

about l0 minutes away from T025 data take.

SPT-EVA All right, let me take around 5 minutes to go

on up. Let's see; how're the settings on this
thing?

034 17 43 59 CDR-EVA 8, infinitely, and 1/250.

PLT It's set on 12 frames per second.

SPT-EVA Let's see; 8 - okay, the T got moved around. T,

8, and infinity, huh?

CDR-EVA Right.
3828 .-_

• SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA 1/250 ought to still be good.

SPT-EVA Let me just get a few of you in view there, Jer,

and then I'll go on up and - Boy, that thing
moves around. Darn settings on this thing.

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer. Oh, you can at least wave.

CDR-EVA Okay. Don't take too much. Save it for the

good stuff.

03h 17 45 13 SPT-EVA Okay. Now, let me try and get back up where I
WaS.

CDR-EVA Golly, I hope I didn't take it all up unwittingly

there, by believing that darn dial. Yes, the
first mark's 20 percent.

SPT-EVA Well, you never know, Jer, with these DACs. Now
let me just get here. Goldang it. What I ...
Oh, I knew.

CDR-EVA Hey, Bill?

PLT Yes.

CDR-EVA While we're waiting for Ed, how about reading me

a description again of the zero-g cover I'm
supposed to remove?

PLT Okay. Stand by i.

CDR-EVA I don't see it.

03h 17 46 19 PLT Zero-g fixtllre cover retriev_l. Okay, I will

roll the canister to minus 2400 arc minutes.
EV-2, tether and remove screwdriver from VS tree.
Remove four of six screws from 5-inch-diameter
cover located between the S055A aperture door,
S082B-1 aperture door, and S082B film replace-
ment door handle.

CDR-EVA Okay, I think I see what they are driving at.

034 17 46 57 CDR-EVA The S082B-2 door is over it.

 3829
i--

• PLT Oh. Maybe they forgot about pinning that thing.

CDR-EVA Well, we'll Just have to look at that when I get

up in those foot restraints.

PLT And let's see. I don't know if you want to deploy

the tether or not - the clothesline, that is.
Get it in position. You've got about - -

CDR-EVA Oh, it 's deployed.

PLT Oh, you already got it up there.

034 17 h7 23 CDR-EVA Yes, we've been using it for the camera. Next
thing to do is the transfers. And I guess we got
T025 next. I suppose - You want me to stay here,
Ed, or do you want me to come down and help you
with T0257

SPT-EVA We're - The operations are going to grind to halt

here anyway.

CDR-EVA I might Just as well, except you have to manage

my umbilical; it may not be worth your trouble.

SPT-EVA Oh, that's no problem.

034 17 47 56 CDR-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Can you feel it running?

SPT-EVA Yes. I hate to stop this mother, though.

CDR-EVA You're having my problem.

SPT-EVA This blasted thing! Boy, that was awful.

SPT-EVA All right. Let me see. Let me see how much it

says we got left. It says we're sitting on empty.
But I can feel it.

PLT Well, you wasn't - it must not have been moving

film then.

CDR-EVA Well, you could have been Just moving the roll.

SPT-EVA Tell you what. Let me Just run it for a few more
seconds here.
3830

•CDR-EVA Yes. Go ahead. Make sure it's all used.

034 17 49 03 CDR-EVA How much time to the T0257

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay, about 5 minutes.

SPY-EVA Okay, I'm going to get back down in there.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPY-EVA However, I better be careful because I think I

got a clothesline wrapped around my leg.

PLT We got 6 minutes and 52 seconds to terminate S020.

SPT-EVA All right. How much time until sunset?

PLT 06:43.

034 17 49 28 CDR-EVA T020's quivering like mad. Okay, it's damping

out.

SPT-EVA T020? Or S020?

CDR-EVA Or S020; I'm sorry. Oh, boy.

PLT T020 always quivers.

CDR-EVA (Laughter)

SPY-EVA Okay, let me get this DAC squared away.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPY-EVA They also want another temperature measurement,

too.

PLT Okay. We got 6 minutes and 20 seconds to go on

S020 for this orbit. And we start SO - T025 -
17:53:23, about 4 minutes, 3-1/2. And we want
Alfa i filter in for the first exposure.

SPY-EVA All right, hold it.

CDR-EVA It's going to have to be the world's fastest

transfer here.
I 3831

•SPT-EVA No, that's all right, Jer. I'll try and get it
I started. If you can get back, all right. If you
can't -

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA I'm trying to get this darn DAC put away now.
Man, I'll tell you -

03_ 17 50 26 CDR-EVA Just tether it somewhere back out of the way and
let her float.

SPT-EVA Well, there 's not that many places here ; I 'm
putting it on the handrail right now.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA However, I'm going to take your suggestion and

I'm halfway into the cabin airlock now and I'll
Just tether it.

SPT-EVA Okay, it's in the airlock and tethered. That

shouldn't give us any more problem. Well, how's
P the umbilicalsituationlook? Oh, it looks all
right.

CDR-EVA You ready for me?

SPT-EVA Yes. Why don't you -

CDR-EVA Why don't you just throw it into the airlock?

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer, I'm throwing n_ feet into the restraints

now. Okay. Okay, that looks good.

CDR-EVA Okay, we are getting into the tight quarters now,

right?

SPT-EVA Yes, why don't you Just come on in? Try to keep
as close as you can and I'll have to do some re-
checking on the alignment here, anyways.

034 17 52 04 PLT Okay, you'll want Alfa - Alfa filter should still
be in there.

SPT-EVA Yes, I got Alfa 1 in there, Bill, and I'm going

to check the alfgnment in Just a second, soon as
Bill - or Jerry gets through here.

034 17 52 19 PLT Okay. We got about 1 minute before the opportunity.

CDR-EVA We're going to make it perfectly.

SPT-EVA Well, let me - let me get myself up here and take

a look in here. Can you hold my feet?

CDR-EVA Sure can. Let me get mine locked in here. All

right.Gotyou.

034 17 52 40 SPT-EVA Okay. I guess maybe it's Just a little bit off.
But I got to get it right down in there.

SPT-EVA Okay. Perfect.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Now, I want 1/1000, huh?

PLT Right.

SPT-EVA All right.

PLT That was beautiful timing. We Just started our

window.

•CC Okay, Skylab, we hear you completing T025. We

got you through Tananarive for 7 minutes. I

SPT-EVA 99.5.

PLT Roger ; 99.5.

SPT-EVA So that's up there.

PLT It sure is. That's higher than it was at the end

of the last orbit.

SPT-EVA Yes, why don't you - -

PLT Okay, that completes data tak [sic].

SPT-EVA Tell you what. Why don't you, when you get a
chance, give Story those measurements - those
temperature measurements.

PLT Okay. I got it - to configure for end of data

take here.

SPT-EVA Okay. And that's surprising. We were setting

there in the low - in the mid 80's there.

CC What temp did you have last orbit?

CDR-EVAAbout8_ to 85,Story.

034 17 57 37 CC Okay.

CDR-EVA Now this time, at the end of this orbit, it's

about 99.

CC Got it.

SPT-EVA We'll _get one at the dayside, too, to see whether -

Just when we're c_ning into day to see what the - -

CDR-EVA Okay, you got to put that filter away.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay. Story, I got some temperatures for you.

CC Okay.

034 17 58 39 SPT-EVA Okay, you want to get those things inside before
we knock one of them and lose them?

CDR-EVA I think that's a good idea. Get T025 inside, too.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA So I need to get out of the shoes and get in.

SPT-EVA Okay.

034 17 58 50 PLT And, Story, we got 22 minutes and h6 seconds on

the 30-minute exposure on S020 on that pass.

CC Thanks, Bill.

PLT Okay. Now let me regroup here and see where I am.

SPT-EVA Okay. Tell you where we're heading, Bill, is to

get the T025 completely inside.

PLT Beautiful. That's a good deal.

SPT-EVA Tell me when you are red-eye [ready], sir.

PLT Okay. Story, that was a- -

SPT-EVA I don't have a wrist tether here.

PLT - - total of 402.

CDR-EVA I tell you what. Let me - Why don't you swing it

around and let me get a hold of it and then I'll
loosen it.

SPT-EVA Yes ....

3838

•CDR-EVA Yes.
J
PLT On T025.

SPT-EVA Okay, you got it?

SPT-EVA Just a minute here. Let me pull the D-ring back

over on this side of the latch - a little bit.
Okay. Got her?

03_ 18 00 01 CDR-EVA Sure do.

SPT-EVA Okay. It's all yours.

CC Bill, we're not getting any data of course through

Tauanarive and you've probably already done it,
but if you haven't, it might be a convenient time
to INHIBIT CMG CONTROL and get a nominal H-CAGE in.

PLT I've already done it. I remembered it this time,

St ory.

CC Okay,
Bill.

PLT I was about 5 minutes late on the last orbit after

the data-take period. So I think that probably
accounts for the low TACS usage of the last night-
side pass.

SPT-EVA Story, it sounds like you guys have got that TACS
figured right down to the last percent.

CC We always try.

SPT-EVA You always do it.

CDR-EVA Okay, Ed, I'm ready for 025.

SPT-EVA Okay.

034 18 00 58 CDR-EVA Don't know Just exactly what I'm going to do with
it, but I'm ready.

SPT-EVA I tell you what. I'll - Let me Just take the

wrist tethers that we have on S020 off, so I can
tether the 25.
 3839

•CC And once you get T025 secure in the airlock, that
might be a good time to take your long eye relief
piece off.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SFf-EVA Good idea. Let's do that in the airlock there,

Jer, so in case it does bound out of your hands,
you got a chance of not losing it.

034 18 01 30 CDR-EVA Yes. You can try to be like a goalie out there
in front of the hatch.

SPT-EVA/ (Laughter)
CDR-EVA

CDR-EVA If it comes your way, bat it back.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

PLT You're dressed like one, anyway.

SPT-EVA Yes.

r CDR-EVA (Laughter) That's for sure.

SPT-EVA Okay, old friend.

034 18 02 09 SPT-EVA Man, who put this on here so tight?

CDR-EVA Watch your right elbow. You're leaning on the - -

SPT-EVA Yes, I know, the camera.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Boy, that guy was strong, whoever he was.

CDR-EVA Super Ed.

SPT-EVA There we c_ne. There we go now. Following

2658 turns.

CC Skylab, we're a couple of minutes from LOS here.

Next station will be Hawaii, about 37 minutes at
18:4o.

PLT Roger, at 18: 40.

3840

•SPT-EVA So long, Story.

CC So long, Ed. I

SPT-EVA Story, I wish you were here. I really do.

CC So do I.

SPT-EVA It 'll happen.

CC Yes, sir.

CDR-EVA (Laughter)

SPT-EVA Oh, boy. You'll note the four point restraint.

03h 18 03 39 SPT-EVA Now I got it tethered here. I'll tell you what.
Why don't I hand in the occulting disk first?

CDR-EVA Okay. I don't - It doesn't matter to me; which-

ever way is most convenient.

SPT-EVA Well, it does because I got this end tethered

here.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Oh, shoot! If you can reach that, Just pull it in.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Okay. Now when you think you got it, I'll take
off mY restraint.

CDR-EVA I've got it.

SPT-EVA Stared by.

034 18 04 06 CDR-EVA Now you have another restraint out there, don't
you?

SPT-EVA Yes, we've got one on the - -

CDR-EVA On the thermometer.

SPT-EVA Thermometer, right.

CDR-EVA Okay, we seem to be one short in here now.

 3841

•SPT-EVA Yes, I - Well, we got one on the DAC still. If

you want to Just put that DAC over there in the
corner, you can if you need that restraint.

CDR-EVA Oh, no, we're not short one. There's another

waist tether in here.

SPT-EVA Watch your right foot on that camera there.

CREW Ahhh !

034 18 05 24 PLT I've got to come over and watch this operation.

CDR-EVA (Laughter)

SPT-EVA Tell me when I'm bumping the goal tender.

CDR-EVA Manl Grace, thy name is Carr.

SPT-EVA Can I help you, Jer?

CDR-EVA (Laughter) Ho, Ho, Ho! Okay, what else is in

the pouch that we have to get?

SPT-EVA Well, we got scissors. I think that's probably

it.

PLT I think that's it. The tool is out there on the

82A, B tree.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Sun end tree.

PLT Wish I could help.

SPT-EVA Jer does, too.

CDR-EVA I'd like to Just hand it to you, Bill.

034 18 07 29 PLT Got that cinched up pretty tight there now.

CDR-EVA Yes, I may have overdone it.

PLT No, it'll be all right. He - he needs enough to

get out but that's sure - that's sure going to
hold it down nice and tight.
B842

,CDR-EVA Okay. Now, my next move is to take off the -

right here - there without kicking the camera.

034 18 08 40 CDR-EVA Okay. The Job is now 50 percent done.

SPT-EVA Very good.

CDR-EVA Now, is that little lens still in there?

CDR-EVA Now comes the other hard part.

034 18 09 55 CDR-EVA Hey! It's on!

PLT Be autiful.

SPT-EVA Attaboy. Well done, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay. We're either going to be 1/25 or 1/250,

aren't we?

SPT-EVA Yes, why don't you go 1/250. Most of it will

probably be in the Sun.

CDR-EVA Okay. Oh, boy, are my hands getting tired.

SPT-EVA Yes, I know.

CDR-EVA I'm going to rest them for a minute.

034 18 l0 40 CDR-EVA Ed, I think I'll put this camera right next to
where the DAC is there, on that handrail, so that
it'll be easier for you to get to. Or would you
rather Just have it outside on your handrail?

SPT-EVA No, let's put it on the handrail that we - right -

right where the - next to where the DAC is.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA I'm afraid of losing those things. Hey, Bill,

why don't you read me the words on the sample that
we're supposed to bring back in of the material.

PLT Okay. Stand by 1. Let me find it.

SPT-EVA Because I've been working on this piece, Jer, and

it's going to be a chore.

CDR-EVA Yes.
 3843

• SPT-EVA What we might be able to do, however, is Just

start right back here.

034 18 12 17 PLT Well, I thought I had it Just a moment ago. Stand

by. Zero-g fixture retrieval.

CDR-EVA It's in that same area, I think.

PLT Yes. Here we go. It's taped together. Okay, I

think maybe this is it.

SPT-EVA Boy, that 's dumb.

034 18 12 34 SPT-EVA I think if I can get that started tho_gh, pull

that back and get the scissors going, then I got
it.

CDR-EVA Yes. Okay, I guess I better move on back up to

the Sun end again.

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer, let me get out of your way.

PLT Clipboard and material - -

- 034 18 12 51 CDR-EVA Heaven only knows what conditions the - the um-
bilicals are in.

SPT-EVA Well, here; hold on. Let me - Let me get back

and get this thing back on my wrist and I'll kind
of analyze where we are again.

PLT Yes, that's what I'm trying to do right now - also.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay, now I 'm not sure I 'm talking about the right
thing, but is this the - -

SPT-EVA Is this my umbilical?

CDR-EVA The AM meteoroid samples.

034 18 13 30 PLT Okay, the AM meteoroid samples.

SPT=EVA Ease it back here out of your way, which I believe

I am now, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay.
3844

• $PT-EVA At least I'm getting back here. I'm hitting the

panel.Okay. !

034 18 13 42 SPT-EVA You got a clear pass this time, Jer.

CDR-EVA Yes. Looks nice.

SPT-EVA You're hung up on - There you go.

CDR-EVA Let's go.

SPT-EVA Tell me when we're just about into sunlight, if

you would, please, Bill.

PLT Okay. We've got 17 minutes to go.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT It's not the clipboard material retrieval.

SPT-EVA No, it's AM -

PLT Is this a change or is it -

SPT-EVAIt'sa change.

CDR-EVA Yes, it's on our change thing.

SPT-EVA Handwritten or teleprinter?

PLT Well, I read through there, but I must have missed

it. Let me read through it again.

SPT-EVA Well, that's all right. It'll - It'll show up

there. Now let me take and start sending you down
the trees there, Jer.

03_ 18 15 27 PLT Now this is not the sci - the scissors?

SPT-EVA This is use of the scissors, yes.

PLT Okay .... scissors ... Okay, cut airlock module

material cover between F-9 and where the hatch
locks or snaps into materials?

SPT-EVA Yes, hold on. Let me - get those words from you
in a second. I'm up to my -
 38&5

•PLT Okay. Because the way this thing is printed, it

doesn't - It's hard to separate the various tasks -
by title.

SPT-EVA Yes, they ought to have a major title. Okay, let

me see now. That's c_m_ng down towards you. Get
the other hook on the other side.

034 18 16 48 CDR-EVA Wonder where we are right now? I can see a coast-
line down there.

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer, whenever you're ready. We got blivets

coming at you.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT And this is the VS tree you're sending down?

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay. Transfer VS tree to VT.

CDR-EVA Boy, that's a big blivet.

SPT-EVA Sure is. Remember you got that screwdriver on

the other side there.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA It looks still pretty secure. So I'll - you -

you tell me when you want me to do anything.

CDR-EVA All right.

034 18 17 36 SPT-EVA Okay, Bill, may I now have those words on - on

what piece is to be cut off?

PLT Okay, let me see if I can find the right section

here.

PLT Okay, I'm Just going to pick up reading here.

EV-1, stow T025 container on FAS temporary stowage
hook and lock. From the D024 panel, A side, tether
and remove two twin-pole sail samples. Translate

tween F-9 and where the hatch locks or snaps into.

SPT-EVA Hatch - F-9 and hatch lock. There's F-8. Here's

F-5, F-4. F-9, huh?

PLT Cut airlock module material covei- between Foxtrot 9

and where the hatch locks or snaps into (verify)
part of material in Sun and part in shade.

SPT-EVA I don't know where the hack F-9 is. There's F-8.
Ahh, wait a minute. The hatch lock. I wonder
what the heck they're ta]_king about. I thought
it would be obvious.

PLT Well, hatch lock. They couldn't mean hinge line,

could they?

SPT-EVA I don't know.

03h 18 19 39 CDR-EVA Okay, I've got the tree installed.

PLT Okay. Let me see if I can pick up here. I re -

034 18 20 23 •PLT Okay, you've been out 3 hours now. Could I have
an EMU status check here?

PLT Oh, if it's not convenient, I can get it in a

couple of minutes.

CDR-EVA Okay, I'm 3.7 and no light.

SPT-EVA 3.6 and no lights.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay, Jer. Ed is supposed to unclamp your LSU,

provide slack for VS transfer. And egress VT -
EV-2 - egress VT foot restraints and ingress VS
foot restraints.

CDR-EVA Okay, that's in work.

034 18 21 03 SPT-EVA Okay, your umbilical looks good, Jer.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Keep your clamp at approximately 35 feet.

034 18 21 13 CDR-EVA Oh, I meant to tell you guys, our command module
certainly does look dingy.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Dingy and brown.

PLT Yes, I was noticing that the last time I was out.
It was already starting to turn. Okay. Unlock
and open S082A container door.

CDR-EVA S082A container door, huh?

PLT That's what it says.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Then it says open S082A ATM door.

CDR-EVA Now, wait a minute. I got tools across there now.

I'm going to have to take the screwdriver off and
tether it somewhere.
38_8

034 18 21 55 •PLT That's too bad. I think they were giving us -

essentially screwed the requirements there. They
wanted a 2-inch ball of tape there, and they also
wanted it stuffed down between the two containers,
82A and 82B.

SPT-EVA Yes, that's all right. We've got something that

will work. That's the important thing.

CDR-EVA Okay, it's off and tethered. Now I can open that
door.

PLT Okay. I'm going to reread those two steps Just

to make sure. Unlock and open S082A container
door. And open S082A ATM door. PUSH button and
rotate handle to UNLOCK.

PLT ATM door.

CDR-EVA ATM door.

PLT PUSH button and rotate handle to UNLOCK.

034 18 23 29 CDR-EVA Well, I'm still trying to locate it. Are you
supposed to rotate the canister or anything for
me?

PLT Okay. 82 - -

CDR-EVA 82B's looking right at me but 82A's over out of

the way.

PLT All right.

CDR-EVA Oh, yes.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Good question, stand by 1.

SPT-EVA You should have it where they're spread-eagled on

either side there.

PLT That meaus I got to go back and pick up there

again.
 3849
I--

• SPT-EVA Yes, when the checklist is not in blocks like -

t it'stoughto wingit.

CDR-EVA I think maybe I was supposed to do that from the

center workstation.

PLT No, I'm not sure. I'm not sure.

CDR-EVA Really, it doesn't matter, Bill. If you Just want

to start moving the canister slowly, I'll tell
you when to quit.

PLT Okay.

034 18 24 13 CDR-EVA Use the low speed. I'm well away from it, standing
back.

PLT Can you see it moving?

CDR-EVA No.

PLT Well, if I enable the switch, maybe it will.

CDR-EVA Wrong way.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Bill, you can use high speed if you want to. Oh,
yes, that's fine.

PLT Say when.

CDR-EVA Okay. Got about another 30 degrees. That ought

to do it. Very good. All right, I'm opening 82A
now. Uh-oh. They aren't opened.

PLT What's that?

03_ 18 25 ll CDR-EVA 82A started to give me a little trouble on opening.

SPT-EVA did it open?

CDR-EVA Yes, it opened. Just had to give it a little tug.

SPT-EVA That's the one that we've - I guess they had

trouble with on SL-3.

CDR-EVA Okay, Bill.

CDR-EVA Son of a gun. It was nice and easy last time.

It's in solid.

CDR-EVA Depress the handle, huh?

PLT Yes.

03h 18 27 47 CDR-EVA The handle's all the way over into UNLOCK. Let
me stick my hand in the end, like through the port.
Boy, it's sure a tight, snug fit.

PLT Okay, get - -

CDR-EVA It looks like the whole door is warped.

03h 18 28 Ol SPT-EVA Are you able to get it, though?

CDR-EVA No.

PLT Let me reread it. I'm sure you did it right, but -
Open S08?_B ATM door, PUSH button, and rotate handle
to UNLOCK.

CDR-EVA Yes, that's done.

PLT Move locking handle left to release mag. Partially

remove mag.

034 18 28 23 CDR-EVA Okay. The whole fi]m door looks like it's been -
like it's been warped. And the corner that's
closest to me is real snug. And the other side's
open; got a wide gap.

034 18 28 46 SPT-EVA Well, I wonder if when you come into sunlight,

whether that might not make the difference.

CDR.EVA Well, we can wait and see.

SPT-EVA You're not able to click it though, huh?

CDR-EVA No. It is really solid. Of course, the other one

looks like - like it's that tight, too.

CDR-EVA Okay. Got a water connector leaking.

PLT Hang on for another couple of hours there, Ed.

SPT-EVA Okay, what was the decision last time on it?

CDR-EVA Oh, we didn't do anything. When I got in, we got

a new PCU and a new umbilical.

SPT-EVA Okay. Water cooling seems to be working all right.

CDR-EVA Yes, mine hung in pretty well, too. You Just got
to be losing a lot out of the system.

03_ 18 29 59 CDR-EVA Well, I could feel the dogs in the door opening
up.

034 18 30 00 CDR-EVA *** door opening up. A crowbar would do nicely.

SPT-EVA A prybar, huh?

CDR-EVA None that we have. A good old-fashioned crowbar

is what I need.

SPT-EVA Well, there's a prybar available if you want to

go over and get it.

CDR-EVA Where is it?

SPT-EVA It's over - hanging off the - extension tether

that they used to pull up the - SL-2 guys used.

CDR-EVA Oh, down on the side of the workshop?

034 18 30 37 SPT-EVA Yes. Okay, I'm looking at 3.65 and no lights.

CDR-EVA I got 3.7, no lights.

Just going to wait until the Sun shines on that

I and see if that - maybe thermalshockwill free
it?

CDR-EVA Yes, might as well.

034 18 B1 ll SPT-EVA The last time I got it open, it opened pretty

easily, and I did it in the sunlight.

PLT I see.

SPT-EVA That's the only thing I'm hoping for.

CDR-EVA Boy, it 's like it 's welded shut.

034 18 31 50 PLT Okay, it'll only take us 7 minutes and 14 seconds

to complete the BO-minute exposure.

SPT-EVA 90.5.

PLT Okay. And I've - now I've got to do the CMG

enable and all that.

SPT-EVA That shed any more light on this problem?

CDR-EVA Yes, there's a whole lot more light on it.

SPT-EVA Can you see how warped it is now, I guess?

034 18 32 46 CDR-EVA Sure looks warped to me. I'll let it heat up

a little bit and try opening it. I'll tell you
what. While I'm - -

PLT 0kay, Ed - -

CDR-EVA - - while we're waiting for it to warm up, why

don't you set the rotation to 2400, Bill, and

SPT-EVA That a babe, Jer. I'm glad you did it. Boyl

PLT Yes. Oh, I could Just see all kinds of bad news.

CDR-EVA You know, when I - when you rotated that door

around so I could get to the other item there,
that put this door in a better leverage position.

034 18 38 07 CDR-EVA Okay. It's in its container, the door is locked -

or closed and latched.

PLT Oh, okay. Right. Sorry about that. Zero-g

fixture cover retrieval.

CDR-EVA Yes, start the rotation back the way you were the
last time.

PLT Okay, minus 2400.

CDR-EVA Yes. No, wrong way.

034 18 39 l0 CDR-EVA Hello, Houston; CDR.

PLT 2 minutes and 20 seconds to go on S020, Ed.

SPT-EVA All right.

PLT How's it looking, Jer?

CDR-EVA We're getting there.

034 18 39 29 CDR-EVA That is good.

 q

3858 i

034 18 46 54 .PLT Now, let me check the BUS. SUS 1 here ...

PLT Okay, we're definitely using water.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

PLT That bladder's out of sight. And I'm - You know,

I reserviced that the other night, so I know where
it was.

034 18 47 28 SPT-EVA Well, let's see now. We can go over to the other
one, can't we? No, we can't.

PLT Well - no.

SPT-EVA Not without - No, we can't.

PLT I'm going to cold sos/[ my bod here before we run

out. Still working; boy, there's no doubt about
that.

034 18 48 07 PLT Ok%y, Ed, we've got about 1 minute to go on this

expos ure.

SPT-EVA Roger.

PLT Then we'll go for a 4 - 4-minute exposure.

SPT-EVA Got it. I got the frapping sample. Man, is

that work.

PLT Beautiful. Okay, now - -

SPT-EVA Hold on; I'm going to have to throw it in the

airlock.

034 18 48 33 PLT Yes, I was going to say, I'm going to need you,
but I'll wait here until you get that squared
away. About 30 seconds, actually, if you can
hack it.

SPT-EVA All right, Just hold on here. Oh. Okay. I'll

try - try and get over there now.

PLT I'll give you a mark.

SPT-EVA Oh boy, what a rat's nest.

 3859

•PLT Okay. Any time you can - -

SPr-EVA Oh, want to go to the next one?

PLT - - go to the next one, and this'll be 4 minutes.

Give me a mark.

SPT-EVA All right, I'm trying to get there.

PLT Okay.

034 18 49 22 SPT-EVA MARK.

034 18 49 23 PLT MARK. 22. 49:22.

SPT-EVA Okay, l'm looking at 3.62 and no lights. How're

you doing, Jer?

CDR-EVA I've got four out of six done. I'll be done

here in about 3 minutes. Sure is fun throwing
these screws away. T let them come up and then
give them a little bat.

-- SPT-EVA You putting them retrograde?

CDR-EVA Oh, absolutely.

PLT Okay. Now that - This is going to terminate

TO twen - S020.

SPT-EVA You're cc_ing up already, huh?

PLT No, it's 2-1/2 minutes.

SPT-EVA A11 right.

PLT Sorry. I'm Just trying to organize my thinking

and planning. Sounds like you're doing all
right out there, Jer.

CDR-EVA Yes, it's a lot easier than I thought it would

be. There aren't too many threads on these screws.
I guess that's why they chose it.

034 18 51 03 PLT Well, let me read the - the rest of the procedure.
I kn - know you read it, but -
3860

• CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Remove four of six screws from 5-inch, et cetera,

et cetera. Discard screws. Remove 12-inch piece
of tape from VS tree and place over cover to
retain it while the last two screws are removed., '
r

CDR-EVA Okay. I'vegot it.

PLT Remove two - last two screws. Remove cover

with tape and tape to VS tree. Remove screw-
driver from tether and tape to VS tree.

CDR-EVA Okay. Problem is, I've got to pry the - the

plate up, and it doesn't look like it's too
wild about coming up.

03h 18 51 45 PLT And we've got about 37 minutes of daylight left.

A minute and a half to go on this fourth exposure
on S020.

SPT-EVA Okay, Bill.

PLT 1 minute to go on the S020 exposure.

SPT-EVA
Roger.

034 18 52 34 SPT-EVA Okay, we got that sample - -

PLT Great.

SPT-EVA - - in and stowed. I tell you, that was no easy

task for those scissors.

PLT I'll bet it wasn't.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy.

PLT Okay. For the S020 people - -

SPT-EVA All right, now - -

PLT - - the number 3 exposure was 7 minutes and

42 seconds in duration.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy, am I tied up here. All right, are we

about ready to finish this other 8020?
 3861
/--

034 18 53 07, PLT 15 seconds. Any time that you want to get
out there and- -

SPY-EVA All right, I'm ready.

PLT - - turn it back to stowage.

SPT-EVA All right.

PLT Stand by -

034 18 53 17 SPY-EVA In stowage now.

PLT Okay. Well, that was 4 seconds early, but that's

close enough for government work.

SPY-EVA Hold on now. Just a minute. I've got to get

myself out of these darn clotheslines.

034 18 53 52 CDR-EVA Okay. I got the plate.

PLT Be autiful.

f CDR-EVA I Just doggone near lost it too. Whoo.

SPT-EVA Good going, Jet.

CDR-EU/A I was under the impression it was Just a flat

plate. But there's a big 2-inch plug underneath
it, about 3-1/2 inches in diameter. Okay, Bill,
I think that finishes me out here, doesn't it?

PLT That 's right •

034 18 54 25 CDR-EVA Okay, so whenever Ed's ready to manage my um-

bilical, I'll come hack - come back down.

PLT Egress - That's right.

CDR-EVA I'll go ahead on - -

PLT If you want - -

CDR-EVA - - down to the VT.

PLT I'm going to read, and if Ed can do it, fine.

And if he's btusy - -
3862

•SPT-EVA Well, I'm try - right now trying to get myself

out of this frapping clothesline. I got an
umbilical through it.

034 18 54 45 PLT Okay. I'm going to read it, and then whenever
you get around to doing it, fine. Just to keep
the continuity going - EV-1 unclamp EV-2 LSU.
EV-2 egress the VS foot restraints and ingress
VT foot restraints. And then, EV-1 remove slack
and then reclamp at approximately 31 feet. Man,
it sounds like - -

SPT I have somehow got this frapping clothesline

tangled. There, I see how it's - how it is.

CDR-EVA Looks like it's underneath your SOP.

SPT-EVA Yes. Oh, you can give it a tug. No, you can't.
I ... - -

CDR-EVA ... the center station. Looks like you're out

of it now.

034 18 55 32 SPT-EVA All right, let me take - Just back off and look
before I get into this thing again. God, that
was awful. Okay. I 'll tell you what, let me get
S020 out of the - the Sun. I think that's -

CDR-EVA Yes. Do that. I'll Just sit here and rest.

034 18 55 51 PLT We're at the end of a data take, so I have inhib -

inhibited CMG control, and we're in nominal
H-cage, TACS o- TACS control, as our configuration.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT And Ed - no need to acknowledge - I - it - I was -

it's in the reading that you're going to take one
more temperature, I think.

SPT-EVA Yes. All right. Let me - let me get myself back

down in here, find out where the heck I can work
from. Okay.

034 18 56 54 PLT Okay, for the S020 people, the first exposure was
a nominal duration of an hour and - Stand by 1.
*** ... minutes, and that was very close to
 3_3

60 minutes even. The second exposure was very

close to 30 minutes, I mean like plus or minus
a second as its - with its tolerance of timing.
The third exposure was 7 minutes 42 seconds. And
the third exposure was 3 minutes and 56 seconds.

03h 18 57 30 SPT-EVA Hold on, I'll give you the temperature here. 103.

PLT Oh, boy, it is heating up. i0 - -

SPT-EVA i0 3.7.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

PLT Okay, that's it ...

SPT-EVA All right. Let me - Think I ought to get S020

out of the way now, get it in the shade.

SPT-EVA I can see now why the booms are a better idea.
Boy, it sure can become a rat's nest up here.

CDR-EVA Sure.

- 034 18 59 35 SPT-EVA Okay. S020 is inside and stowed.

PLT Great. Good show.

SPT-EVA A]] right, now - now, Jet.

PLT Boy, this is one of the most efficient working

EVAs I've ever seen.

SPT-EVA This is a little 8mbitious.

PLT No, y'all have dovetailed everything beautifully.

I don't think you could do this any better in a
doggone one-g situation.

034 19 00 00 SPT-EVA Okay. How do you stand, Jer?

PLT Okay, place - -

CDR-EVA Not bad. I'm ready to connect the clothesline

up to the -

PLT Tell me when you want me to continue reading.

3864

• CDR-EVA __ll right.

SlUr-EVA Okay. Go ahead ...

PLT Okay. EV-I unclamp EV-2 LSU.

SPT-EVA It 's unclamped.

PLT EV-2 egress VS foot restraints and ingress VT foot

restraints.

CDR-EVA 0kay. That 's already done.

PLT Okay. EV-1 remove slack, and then reclamp EV-2

LSU at approximately 31 feet.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Give me an _MU status check, Jer.

034 19 00 39 CDR-EVA All right. I'm 3.7 sad no lights.

SPT-EVA 3.62 and no lights.

PLT Okay. EV-2, attach one clothesline hook to VS tree

handle and lock hook.

CDR-EVA That's done.

PLT Unstow VS tree.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

CDR-EVA 0kay.

PLT Attach second clothesline hook to opposite end

of VS tree and lock hook.

CDR-EVA All right, that 's in work.

CDR-EVA And complete.

034 19 01 39 PLT Okay. EV-1 transfer VS tree to VF ... - -

CDR-EVA Okay. Wait Just a minute while I put this tool

on it now. What's the matter, Ed?
 3865
/--

• SPT-EVA Nothing. I was Just trying to get _ own _bilical

clamped and the darn thing is giving me a tough
time. I'm going to have to slow down here.

CDR-EVA Okay. No need to rush now. Most of the hard

stuff's done.

SPT-EVA Okay. What have we got to do? We've got to

bring in a few samples yet, too, huh?

PLT That 's right.

CDR-EVA Just about it.

PLT That's it. Also, we have the S149.

034 19 02 19 CDR-EVA Oh, that's right. That's something you could be

doing, Ed. If you want - Go on; I'll send this
back.

PLT Okay - -

SPT-EVA Okay, it's ready to go back.

CDR-EVAOkay.

PLT Rever - Okay. Let me read here. Transfer VS tree

to - to VF. Apparently you've already done that?

CDR-EVA No, it's en route.

PLT Okay.

03h 19 Oh 25 CDR-EVA Oh, by the way, I - I reopened the S082B 2 door

and latched it open.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay. We got that. Press on.

PLT Okay. Remove clothesline hook fr_n container-door

end of VS tree. Install tree in VF receptacle
and lock.

SPT-EVA We got it.

PLT Release second clothesline hook.

SPT-EVA We got it.

3866

• PLT Okay. Now, retrieve S149 and attach to Sun-end

clothesline. Transfer S149 to EV-2.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy. It's buried back there in the bowels.

CDR-EVA Well, just take your time, slow and easy, Ed.

SPT-EVA Oksy. Will do it.

034 19 05 30 SPT-EVA Ah, I'm going to have to clamp my own LSU very
sagaciously so I won't have umbilical management
problems. Now I can't get back there; have to
come back out again.

PLT Well, I think we're doing pretty well in the

time line.

SPY-EVA How much time we been out, Bill?

03_ 19 05 55 PLT _]most _ hours - another 15 minutes; 3 hours and

three-quarters.

PLT Well, we got all that T025 data anyway.

CDR-EVA Yes. That's real good.

PLT Yes.

PLT And we were doing well - we were well organized

for S020. It's Just a shame the thing heated
up that way.

03_ 19 08 12 CC Skylab, reading you loud and clear through the

Vanguard for l0 minutes.

CDR-EVA Hello, Story.

SPT-EVA Okay, Story, we got the VS tree back here. We're

Just getting S149 out. We've retrieved a sample
around the airlock, and moving ahead here.

CC Okay, Ed. And with respect to your leak, we

rec_mend min flow on EVA HIGH FLOW. If you need
more cooling than that, go intermittently to max
on your water diverter valve.

SPT-EVA Okay. I think I will up the airflow a little

bit. Stand by.
 3867

• CC And, Bill, did you get a reservoir reading yet?

PLT Story, I can't tell. I was Just - I went up and

looked at it, as we definitely have used the water
in a considerable amount. I can't give you an
accurate reading, but l'd say like - it's probably
20 percent full right now. That's a guess.

034 19 09 16 CC Okay. And we estimate that Jer ran with the leak
he had, when he had the leak, about 4 hours. So
it may go a long time.

PLT Okay. I serviced it the other evening, and I

knew where the bladder was, and it's hard to
read that thing, you know, _-ith a flashlight back
in there, because the bladder gets in the way
after it expands so far. But anyway, I know
we've used water.

034 19 09 54 PLT Okay, Ed, tell me when you want me to start reading
again.

SPT-EVA Okay. l'm - I think we're squared away. l'm

- Justhookingup 149to the -

PLT Cloth esline ?

SPT-EVA - - clothesline right now.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Tell you, Story, there's a - these clotheslines

are very simple, and they're easy to use. There's
no problem with the transfer. But working up here
in this workstation, doing a host of different
things, which - which I have been, it sure compli-
cates the problem. Very easy to get tangled up.

CC Did you notice any abnormal dynam_ cs in the

clotheslines, Ed?

03_ 19 l0 31 SPT-EVA No. The only difference between the water and
here, of course, is that they oscillate a lot
with a higher magnitude and higher frequency.
But no abnormal dynamics. It's Just like whipping
a rope around down on the ground; pretty much Just
the same. Just got another dimension.

p_
3868

• CC Okay. And, Jer, did you happen to repin open

that door that you had to close to get the zero-g
fixture?

CDR-EVA Yes, I did, Story. It's open and latched.

CC Beautiful. Thanks a lot, Jer.

03_ 19 ii 15 SPT-EVA Okay, Jer. We'll hook up around - hook up on

one - one latch here, and it's locked, so c_ning
out your way.

CDR-EVA Okay.

CC And, Skylah, your Nikon photos out toward the

Sun end, you may want to get those before putting
the S149 out.

SPT-EVA Tell you what, you want me to send the Nikon out
along with this, Jer?

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay, let me Just back her up a little bit here.

I'll get the Nikon on here too. Good call, Story.

CDR-EVA How much daylight left us, Bill?

034 19 12 02 PLT 17 minutes.

CDR-EVA Okay. Open up to Nikon ops again and read me

what they want.

PLT Okay. Retrieve Nikon, egress airlock module,

ingress VF foot restraints. Attach Nikon to
VS clothesline and transfer camera to VT. Tether
Nikon and remove from clothesline. Take photos
from all workstations. Use following settings:
for Earth scenes or objects in Sun, 1/250; objects
in shade, 1/125. Doc_ment discoloration, shadowing
effects, twin-pole Sun-shade installation, OWS
SAS, D02_, clipboard with $228, sail material,
$230, CSM, and other targets of opportunity.

034 19 12 49 CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Take photos from FAS as desired, after - returning

the Nikon.
 3869

• SI>T-_A Okay. Coming at you, Jer,

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA Nikon first.

SPT-EVA Going to take it nice and slow here, so I don't

get things wound around. If you'll keep it
separated - -

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA - - I'll do a little pulling.

034 19 13 37 SPT-EVA Story, that sample we got for the materials

people is a good one, Right underneath S-9 you
got the effect of no sunlight, a very pronounced
sh adowing.

CC Okay, Ed.

SPT-EVA S020 is inside, Story. We got that stowed.

PLT Also, Story, the temperatureof S020 at 18:58 was

103.7 degrees.

SPT-EVA And that's the time at which we brought it in.

034 19 14 34 CC Okay, that's good. 105 was the limit that we

wanted to go to in terms of damaging the film.

SPT-EVA Well, we got it Just - Just - -

PLT Just in time.

SPT-EVA - - tad after that. But it's in the airlock

now - -

CC Okay, ... thanks.

034 19 16 30 SPT-EVA What a photographer! Ralph Morris has nothing

on you.

CDR-EVA That's right, Ralph. Watch out for your Job when
I get back.

CDR-EVA Ed, can you pull 149 back down out of the way?
3870

• SPT-EVA Sure can. Hold on.

CDR-EVA That's good enough right there.

034 19 17 28 CC Skylab, we're a minute from LOS. Tananarive in

15 minutes at 19 :32.

PLT Okay, Story.

SPT-EVA So long, Story.

CC So long, Ed.

CDR-EVA Bill, did you load new film in this camera this
morning ?

PLT Negative.

CDR-EVA Doesn't look like it's advancing. Did you set

the counter at 65 or something?

PLT I didn't change it. You know, you said that it

would ... use it last night, but I - I haven't
touched _hat camera since we fixed it up yesterday
afternoon.

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT Can you see the counter on the back?

CDR-EVA Yes, it says 53. I though it said 4_ when we

started out here.

034 19 18 20 PLT I did too. It is possible you moved that while

you were taping it?

CDR-EVA Well, I might have.

PLT Because that's an awful easy little button to move.

SPT-EVA Is it counting down as you take photos?

CDR-EVA I'm going to check now and see. Yes, it is.

PLT Well, you're in business. It's probably what

happened, because - -
 3871

"SPT-EVA Okay. Well, let's figure it out, then. You

started at what number, Jer? 50?

CDR-EVA I don't know. I'm - I was - I Just looked at it

and saw it was 53.

SPT-EVA Then you took, what, maybe a half dozen or so?

CDR-EVA I've taken about eight pictures now, I think.

SPT-EVA 53 - Call it 52. You started at 60, and we really

had 43?

CDR-EVA 44.

SPT-EVA 44?

PLT So you got 35 left.

034 19 19 01 SPT-EVA So when you got six - when you're reading 16 or so

is probably when you're out. Something like that.

CDR-EVA Yes. Okay.

SPT-EVA Let's see, they want a - what, from each work-

station and also the sample here?

CDR-EVA Yes. Something like that.

SPT-EVA There'll be another good one, Jer, looking back

down the side of this vehicle to show the damage
that was done when that panel ripped off.

CDR-EVA That's ri@ht. I'm going to try to get the position

for that but - -

034 19 20 14 SPT-EVA Well, I can help you - or I can do that from -

once you get up here; or if you want to. Either
way.

CDR-EVA Well, I've got a - a good vantage point here,

if I could Just get faced in the right direction.

SPT-EVA You know, it's a good thing I'm EV-1, not

exposed to the Sun.

CDR-EVA Uh-oh.
3872

034 19 21 18. SPT-EVA Is your knob no longer - -

CDR-EVA No, mF knob got hit over to 1/60, so a lot of my

pictures are probably no good.

SPT-EVA Take them over again, Jer.

l
CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT You should have plenty of film, really.

034 19 22 52 SPT-EVA Getting one of the SPT?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Wait'll I straighten my hair.

PLT Okay, Jer, I have a roll I'm supposed to go to on

the canister. You are through out there, aren't
you?

CDR-EVA Let me get my feet up out of the way.

PLT Well, I can wait. No rush.

CDR-EVA Okay. Well, I was finished at this position

anyway.

CDR-EVA Okay. I'm clear.

PLT Okay.

034 19 24 50 CDR-EVA Okay. I guess I'll go look at the command module

again. Then I'll be through. How much time we
got, Bill?

PLT We've got _ hours and 5 minutes.

CDR-EVA No, no, no, no. I mean how much Sun time.

PLT Oh, I'm sorry. 4 minutes.

03h 19 25 07 CDR-EVA Okay. My _hilical loose, Ed?

SPT-EVA Yes, I'm feeding it out.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA You ab - Are you about far enough, Jer?

 3873

• CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Okay.

034 19 26 0h SPT-EVA Boy, every once in a while sc_e of this ice lets
loose, and, boy, it really - it really takes off.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT Okay. It's been quite a while. I guess I better

have an _U status check.

CDR-EVA Okay, I'll get to it in a minute.

PLT Okay.

034 19 26 58 SPT-EVA I'm 3.65 and no lights.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Okay, I got my cc_mand module pictures.

CDR-EVA Coming back, Ed.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Okay, now what's the configuration on 149 right now?

034 19 27 44 SPT-EVA It's hanging out halfway.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA And we'll get lh9 out, and then we can ccme on
back and get that other sample. When we get a
little more daylight we can finish up the
photography.

CDR-EVA Right.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy.

034 19 28 43 PLT Got about h0 seconds of day left, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay. I'm A]I through for picture taking right

now. Now I've got to dispose of this camera.

SPT-EVA You got a handrail that you can put it on there

out of the way?
i--
387_

• CDR-EVA Yes, I think so.

SPT-EVA Tell you what, why don't you Just put it on the
hook out there on the - that I'll send out to
you, Jer. And - so you can take the 149 off,
and I'll pull the camera back in.

CDR-EVA All right, let's do that.

SPT-EVA Let's see, right now I've got to get 149 out a
way from the twin pole there. Okay.

CDR-EVA Okay. Hold it.

SPT-EVA Ooh.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 19 29 52 CDR-EVA Man, did it ever get dark.

SPT-EVA Sure did.

CDR-EVA Got to wait for my eyes to - -

r_

SPT-EVA You may want to push your visor up.

CDR-EVA - - recover and get my visor up.

SPT-EVA Boy, looking at this, I can still remember seeing

that comet. That was a beautiful sight.

CDR-EVA Sure was.

CDR-EVA Okay, Ed.

SPT-EVA Have you got the 159 off?

CDR-EVA Yes.

035 19 30 55 SPT-EVA Okay. Let's see, make sure I can see which one
to be tugging on here.

CDR-EVA I think that's the wrong one.

SPT-EVA I haven't tugged on either one of them yet. I'm

Just trying to separate the lines.

CDR-EVA Okay.
 3875
/--

• SPT-EVA Boy, with this vis at night, I can't see which

way to unravel the lines. Why don't you Just
pull - -

034 19 31 30 CDR-EVA It's the one in your left hand.

SPT-EVA Pull on this one, huh?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

CDR-EVA You got it?

SPT-EVA Zer gut.

CDR-EVA Bill, if you could, pick up on the 149 words.

PLT Okay. Be happy to. Stand by. Okay. Retrieve

S149; attach to Sun-end clothesline. Transfer
Slh9 to EV-2. • After EV-2 removes S149 from
clothesline, transfer clothesline hooks back to
FAS.

CDR-EVA Okay. They are.

034 19 32 08 PLT Okay. After they're transfered back to the FAS,

connect hooks together and clip clothesline out
of way on F-6. And, of course, you got to install
the S149 right now, I asst_ne.

CDR-EVA Yes. That's what I'm trying to do.

PLT It only takes a couple of twists.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA You got it done, Jer?

CDR-EVA _]most.

034 19 33 15 PLT I don't know about you g_s, but I'm working up
a big appetite staying in here.

034 19 33 20 CC So are we, and got you through Tananarive _for

6 minutes.

PLT Hi, Story.

f--
3876

• CC Hi, Bill. And I got something for you.

PLT Go.

CC Okay, we'd like to bring up SUS loop 2, in case

you need some coolant.

PLT Okay.

CC You can find that on 1.2-10.

PLT Okay.

CC And I got three calls here with respect to that

procedure when you get there.

PLT Okay, Story, I'm looking at it.

CC Okay. Change 317 to 217, 217.

PLT That's in column 2?

CC That's in the right-hand column, yes.

PLT Okay. Got it.

034 19 34 17 CC And change SUS 1 PUMP to SUS 2 PUMP.

PLT Okay.

CC And then all down that column, change PRIMARY to

SECONDARY.

PLT Ah, let's see. Oh, okay.

CC And verify that you got the Jumper across SUS 2.

PLT Yes, that's correct. We do.

CDR-EVA Bill, when you give me - get a chance, tell me

which way to turn the crank.

034 19 34 52 PLT Okay. Something - I'm going to have to look it

up someplace, because it's not in that little
abbreviated procedure. S149 -

CDR-EVA I think it's counterclockwise.

 3877

•PLT Okay.

CDH-EVA That's the only way that it works.

CC That's counterclockwise.

PLT Thank you, Story.

034 19 35 17 CC And Bill, have Ed stay in - in rain flow to mini-

mize that leak.

SPT-EVA I sm in min flow, Story.

PLT He is.

SPT-EVA I have not come out of min - -

CC Okay, and then, Bill, if you sense that you've

lost a]] of your coolant, and you need coolant
you can Just change your connectors over to SUS 2,
and have the two EVA crewmen cool on HIGH FLOW,
EVA.

PLT Okay. And I don't think - I think we're fairly

close. It's - it's going to be like, oh, maybe
45 minutes to an hour, probably, to completion.
That's Just a rough guess. I'm comfortable now,
and I haven't heard any complaints from Jer or Ed.

CDR-EVA Well, I'm- I'm reasonably ccmfortable.

SPT-EVA No, I'm fine.

034 19 36 02 CC Okay, we Just wanted to bring up SUS 2, Bill, so

that - since you're on water cooling only.

PLT Okay.

CDR-EVA Okay. The doors are opening out now.

CDR-EVA A little lightning on the horizon.

PLT Okay.

034 19 36 31 CC Jet, Houston.

CDR-EVA Go.
3878

• CC Was the counter on the motor drive unit on Nikon 02

reset, and when you're taking pictures, can you
see the - the mirror move up in front of you - -

CDR-EVA Yes.

CC - - when you click the camera?

CDR-EVA Yes, I can see it. I don't know how the counter
got where it is. It must've got moved there
while we were handling and putting the tape on
it, because when we - there were 44 exposures
left. And it was looking at - when I finally
looked down at it, it had 53. So there's
some - We must have moved the counter when we
were handling it. But I could see the - the
thing actually taking pictures. I coted feel
it transporting film, and I could see the mirror
flop when it exposed. So it's working.

CC Okay, beautiful. Bill, Houston.

PLT Go ahead.

CC Got a couple of things here you - for you to add

at the very end of the EVA. Maybe you'd like
to put it on page 2.4-26.

034 19 37 29 PLT Okay, just a second. I was in the SUS loop 2

activation. Okay. That was - Say it again,
Story. I'm sorry. I was diverted there.

CC It's - Yes, I hate to bug you right now too, but

I'm going to be running out of passes here. It's
on page 2._-26.

PLT Okay. Standby 1.

PLT I got it. Go ahead.

034 19 37 59 CC Okay, we're interested in if the boom -when it's

exposed to the Sun for a long period of time -
if we see any thermal bending and distortion.
So we're going to run it out. And after you
separate, on your flyaround, you'll take some
photos of it. So Just prior to coming on in,
take the center workstation - that's the VT BOOM -
and run it out to the normal operational length to
 3879
/-

the crewman when he's at the center workstation.

And when you run it out, put - put the hook
straight out when you run it out.

PLT Got that, Story.

CC And one more thing. Jer was interested in bringing

in the loss-of-comm cue card. He said it had some
discoloration on it. If he brings that in, you
can stow it in CSM R-3.

PLT CSM R-3; got it.

034 19 38 43 CDR-EVA Okay, Bill, 149's complete. It's all - it's

expanded.

PLT Okay, let me go back here and find my place. All

right. That completes that activity there. Now.
So ... clamp to solar shield; rotate S149 slowly
counterclockwise; open cassette arms.

CC And we're about 30 seconds to LOS here. See you

over Hawaii in about 37 minutes at 20:15.

CDR-EVA Roger.

PLT Fast - fasten restraint to handle. Does that

make sense to you?

SPY-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Yes, go ahead.

PLT Okay. Egress VT foot restraints and translate

to $230 area.

CDR-EVA Okay. It 's in work.

PLT Okay. Let's see; go back to my SUS loop 2.

CC Bill, going over the hill, I've got one more

thing for you.

PLT Roger.

034 19 39 52 CC If you get any evidence of pump cavitation on

PRIMARY SUS loop, turn that PUMP, OFF.
388O

• PLT Okay, will do.

CC That 's panel 202. SUS 1, LCG PUMP, PRIMARY to

OPEN.

PLT Okay, that's a circuit breaker you want me to

pull. All right.

CC Yes, panel 202, SUS l, LCG PUMP, PRIMARY to OPEN.

034 19 40 31 PLT Got it. SUS l, LCG PUMP.

CC You only want to get that if there's any evidence

of cavitation or loss of flow.

PLT Understand. And thank you very much. That's

a good call.

SPT-EVA Okay, Jer. Got your umbilical.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA Looking good.

034 19 41 01 PLT PRIMARY. Okay, now I go up, and I can give it a

30-second shot. Oh.

PLT Okay, Jer, I'm sorry I left you there for a minute.
Let's see here -

CDR-EVA No problem. I'm on my way back now, to get the

023.0 [sic].
PLT Okay. Ah, we have a - -

CDR-EVA Or $230.

034 19 41 39 PLT Okay, that's 25 seconds. 30 seconds. Okay, off

for another minute.

SPT-EVA There's the old Jer.

CDR-EVA Yes, indeed. I'm right here.

PLT Okay, Jer, let's see - -

CDR-EVA I'm at the D230 area now.

 3881

• PLT $230 area.

CDR-EVA Or $230.

PLT $230 ops. Attach wrist tether to nearest $230

collector.

CDR-EVA What do they mean by nearest?

PLT I don't know. Let me read the rest of it.

Remove - -

CDR-EVA Well, I - I'm to the outboard one now. That's

the one I'm going to do.

PLT I guess (langbter) I don't really know what

it means.

CDR-EVA I - I thought fir - You know, I would think

nearest to me - -

PLT That's right.

_ CDR-EVA - - from where I was, but then I got here, I said,

Hmm, I wonder if they mean the nearest to the - -

PLT Hatch.

CDR-EVA - - to the FAS.

SPT-EVA Well, you're going to bring in both of them, are

you not?

034 19 42 35 CDR-EVA That's what I thought.

PLT I can't see as it makes a tinker's hoot.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Remove collector, fold, and engage Velcro along

edge.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 19 h2 45 SPT-EVA Good luck, Jer.

PLT Okay. Now I - -

f-
3882

• SI_-_A You Just remember that Don Lind's whole career is

wound up in that, but don't let that put any
pressure on you.

CDR-EVA What, me worry?

SPT-EVA (Laughter)

CDR-EVA I think I'll Just come in and let you fold it.

SPT-EVA I think you got the right idea. Careful with

that nice, thick, shiny, flat surface. Okay.
Just hold her right about where you are. Just
a minute. Okay. The trouble is, you had me - -

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 19 h3 h7 SPT-EVA If you can move in now more and get your wrist
over to where I can fold this thing - we've got
it.

SPT-EVA *** we can fold it - in gloves, I have not, but I

think I have done it.

CDR-EVA Okay. Do you - have you got one of them or two

of them or what?

SPT-EVA Got one.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Now, let's see. Do we fold it?

CDR-EVA No, don't fold it again. The thing now is,

we've got a tether someplace to tether that
rascal down.

SPT-EVA Yes, okay. Don't - don't go away. Why don't you

Just stay right there and I'll go find - round
one up.

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA You can use it for the other one too.

SPT-EVA Yes, this is going to take me moving that DAC

around here, Jer. That's the only one I see
that 's available.
 3883

• CDR-EVA Okay.

03h 19 h5 36 SPT-EVA What the beck am I hung up on? I'm always hung
up on something.

PLT Come here and let me come over and take a look.
Okay. You got the S020 above your head, in back
of your neck.

CDR-EVA How about this tether that the thermometer is

on, Ed?

SPT-EVA Well, I - Hold on, Jer; I'm working this one.

I could've used that one too.

PLT Will both of the things - will both of the 230s

fit on one tether?

CDR-EVA Yes, I think so.

SPT-EVA Yes.

PLT Anyway, I'm sure you're - It's rather obvious

without reading it, but all you do is take both
of them off and take them to the airlock - or
the FAS - the FAS it says.

SPT-EVA Okay. Sehr gut.

03h 19 h7 40 CDR-EVA Okay, let's go for the other one. Been so

succesful with one, we might as well try for two.

SPT-EVA Why not ?

CDR-EVA Boy, this pouch on my arm was sure a lifesaver

on the - on the plug.

SPT-EVA Yes, I bet it was.

CDR-EVA There's a great big old piece of phenolic material

on the - on the inside of that block.

SPT-EVA *** get your tether around there?

CDR-EVA Yes. It Just occurred to me.

SPT-EVA ... Ooops!

f-
3884

• SPT-EVA Okay.

034 19 49 14 CDR-EVA Okay, we got the other 230 in, and Ed is folding
it now.

PLT Okay. Next is clipboard and material retrieval.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT EV-2, translate to S-10 handrail and attach wrist

tether to clipboard holding the $228 and sail
s ample.

SPT-EVA Okay, Just a minute, Jer. This is going to be

tricky. Naturally, I do not want to lose one
while getting the other.

CDR-EVA I tell you what; I'll hold on to that one. There.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Got it.

SPT-EVA Okay, I'll go put this in the airlock.

PLT Okay, was that the clipboard or the 230?

CDR-EVA No, that - that's the 230.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Did I really do that? Yes, I did.

CDR-EVA Hello in there. Right here, out the STS window.

PLT Oh, okay. (Laughter)

034 19 52 19 CDR-EVA Now, is this - is this piece of Lexan - is that

tethered to the - to the clipboard, Ed?

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA So I wo - so I won't lose it by - by shaking it

or something like that.

SPT-EVA No.

CDR-EVA Okay.
 3885

• SPT-EVA That wag a good move on the part of Bob Kain, I

believe, to have that done.

CDR-EVA Yes, indeed.

SPT-EVA I would've lost it i0 times already.

SPT-EVA How much time is left in night there, Bill?

PLT Oh, about I0 minutes, I think. Let me check.

SPT-EVA Ah, Just about right.

PLT 12 minutes.

034 19 53 22 SPT-EVA Now, Jer, do you want to Just press right on in

and put that somewhere?

CDR-EVA Well, I got to get the D024 done next.

SPT-EVA Oh, you're right; you're right; you're right.

Okay. Okay, I don't have a tether, so -

CDR-EVA Why don't you use that tether the thermometer's

on? Put them both together.

SPT-EVA Okay .... - -

CDR-EVA It's right up there in the corner.

SPT-EVA Yes, there it is. Okay.

PLT Okay, you want me to read that again, or do you

know what to do, Jer?

CDR-EVA No, you probably will have to read that, but let
us get this clipboard tethered and turned in first.

SPT-EVA Oh, this is going to be tight. I'm not going to

be able to work it in between - -

034 19 54 09 CDR-EVA Why don't you put your thermometer then on a

temporary stowage hook?

SPT-EVA Wait a minute. I can get both if you Just pull

it over here. Find me a hole.

CDR-EVA There's the tether right there.

3886

"SPT-EVA Okay. Unhook yourself, sire.

q

CDR-EVA Okay. I can't see it. Ah --

SPT-EVA ...

CDR-EVA There. I think I Just did it.

SPT-EVA There you go.

CDR-EVA Okay. Now, D024, and I'll stay well clear of it

until we figure out what we're doing, so's I
don't spray it with _ PCU.

034 19 54 59 PLT Okay. Let me find m_ place on this - cycling

these BUS pumps, and I - this SUS-loop-2 pump.
I think I'm all out of sequence, but let me -
pick up the thread here once more for - D024 ops.
That's what you want, right?

CDR-EVA Right.

PLT Note: Orient suit vents away from D024 samples,

particularly after stowing sample - - __

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT - - in container to avoid trapped gas in container.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Ex: Feet toward hatch. Exit - I don't know

what that means.

CDR-EVA Spell it.

PLT Ex, colon, feet toward hatch, co._¢.

034 19 55 50 CDR-EVA Example: Feet toward hatch.

PLT Okay. EV-1 holding as required.

SPT-EVA Well, that's the way they - -

PLT Okay. That's - I see what they're saying.

SPT-EVA If they give a task, you've got to do it - do it

either way. Remember how we used to - how we
worked it when I - I put it in there?
 3887

• CDR-EVA Yes. Well, I'm pointing down away from it now.

SPT-EVA Okay, that 's good.

CDR-EVA Go ahead, Bill.

PLT Remove container pip pin and verify container

is not stuck.

CDR-EVA Well, the pip pin's stuck. Let me fiddle with it

a little.

034 19 57 03 CDR-EVA I got it.

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Jer, I was looking at that before; and that lid,

I am not sure whether you're going to be able
to close it.

PLT Lift hatch handles, two of them, on container,

rotate counterclockwise, and lift cover.

SPT-EVA That handle - that - that thing was open for

sc_e reason.

CDR-EVA Yes, it sure was.

PLT Okay. What I - what I Just read to you, does

that make sense?

CDR-EVA Yes, it's okay so far.

PLT Okay. Pull strip panel pip pin and pull handle
to release.

CDR-EVA All right. Now what am I going to do with it?

PLT Stow strip panel in container large hole, handle

first, samples toward hinge.

SPT-EVA Yes, it's i_portant you get the handle first, Jer.

034 19 57 54 CDR-EVA Yes. I want to get - That handle first? Or

these handles first?

SPT-EVA Ah - the little - I can't see what you're pointing

at.
3888

• CDR-EVA Those string handles first, right?

SPT-EVA Ah -

CDR-EVA Or that - that big wire handle?

SPT-EVA Let me - Hold on, Jer. They got - The big wire
handle.

CDR-EVA That goes in first? Okay.

SPT-EVA Yes. You see, otherwise - Well, you won't he

able to close the top.

PLT Okay. Tell me when that's complete.

SPT-EVA There you go.

03h 19 58 hO PLT I'll reread that step. Stow strip panel in

container large hole, handle first, samples
toward hinge.

SPT-EVA He's got it.

PLT Pull - -

SPT-EVA The CDR's done it.

PLT Pull disk panel pip pin and pull handle to release.

CDR-EVA Okay. Oh, boy, there's no loops on there for a

tether, is there?

PLT Stow disk panel in container, handle first.

SPT-EVA No, that's one of the things that made it -

Here, I'll tell you what. You want me to hold
on to this?

CDR-EVA You hold on to the wire handle, yes. Good.

SPT-EVA I got it.

CDR-EVA Okay, now let me get - get ahold of it.

SPT-EVA Get a pinky on there where it says thumb.

CDR-EVA Maybe I can touch that, Ed.

 3889

SPT-EVA Okay.
P

CDR-EVA I can touch the black ones?

SPT-EVA Yes.

034 19 59 28 CDR-EVA All right, let me get a better bite on it then.

Hold it.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA Okay. I got it.

SPT-EVA Okay?

PLT Stow disk panel in container, handle first,

samples toward hinge.

CDR-EVA Oh, boy. I was afraid of that.

SPT-EVA Is it binding up on you?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA There you go.

CDR-EVA Can you stuff that handle down in first?

SPT-EVA Yes, I believe_so. Oh, no. Look, we're losing

that 0-ring. Here you go. I think you got to
tighten these, Jer. Ooh, there I go.

CDR-EVA You got it?

SPT-EVA Yes.

034 20 00 17 PLT Verify container seal clear, close container, and

rotate latches, two of them, clockwise.

SPT-EVA Yes. Oh, gosh, they're cnm_ng out.

CDR-EVA Beautiful, beautiful.

SPY-EVA No, wait a minute, wait a minute. Maybe we can

see the problem with the 0-ring.

CDR-EVA 0h, yes.

389O

• SPT-EVA Think you can make it in there? Maybe you can't.

Okay, real quick. I'll hold out - Okay.

CDR-EVA Can you hold it? Good. You got it.

SPT-EVA Yes .... but --

CDR-EVA Yes.

034 20 00 48 PLT Remove container from panel and pass to - -

SPT-EVA Here we go.

PLT - - EV-I.

CDR-EVA Want to do the other one?

SPT-EVA Yes, ... better because I think they probably

want this vacuum tight. Yes .... with
motor skills.

CDR-EVA Here, I can do it. I've got a good angle for it.

SPT-EVA Go ahead. Very good. Okay, now I do not have a

tether or anything, Jer.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA I'm fresh out of them. Tell you what. Maybe we're
Just going to have to - -

CDR-EVA Is this the last item?

SPT-EVA Ah -

CDR-EVA Because I have a tether right on my wrist.

034 20 01 24 SPT-EVA I believe so.

PLT No, we got the - two - we got the twin-pole samples.

CDR-EVA Oh, where are they?

PLT Okay. Let me read ahead here. EV-2. From the

D02_ panel, A side - the _ifa side, tether and
remove two twin-pole sall samples.

CDR-EVA Okay.

• SPT-EVA Just a minute here, Jer.

CDR-EVA All right.

PLT Translate to FAS and ingress AM.

CDR-EVA He put that on the temp stowage hook. That will

hold it for now.

SPT-EVA Yes, and then maybe we can put both on - on that

same hook. Why don't you Just stay in this imme-
diate area?

CDR-EVA Right. I 'll be goalie.

SPT-EVA Okay.

CDR-EVA D024 A side, huh? Oh, there they are. I'm supposed
to tether those?

034 20 02 34 CDR-EVA Good grief. Okay. I don't have a big enough tether
hook.

SPT-EVA Yes, yes. What do we do when we get inside the

airlock with it?

PLT Translate to FAS and ingress AM. Attach wrist

tether with twin-pole sail samples to screen cover-
ing the MDA hatch window. I guess it's just a
place to put it.

SPT-EVA Oh, I know what they're talking ab - Yes, all right.

PLT You know, the protective screen.

CDR-EVA They're stuck together. They're real safe, stuck

together. You took one of them.

• SPT-EVA All right. Did the post ops say be careful not to
stick together?

CDR-EVA Okay. Now where does it say to put them? On what

window?

PLT On the MDA hatch screen.

SPT-EVA Any way - any way you can put them, Jer.

PLT Yes. Any way. Any place - -

SPT-EVA Yes. Just any place you can hold them.

PLT Okay. I don't see that there's anything sacred

about that.

you in the EVA comm? ...

CDR-EVA Yes, why not.

SPT-EVA Boy, if I can get the mother off. That fellow

3896

PLT Okay, Just let me make sure that the S020 is in

its proper configuration.

SPT-EVA Oh, yes, I've got to -

PLT Place VACUUM VALVE/SHUTTER CONTROL to CLOSE.

SPT-EVA I will do that when I get a chance here.

PLT Okay.

034 20 09 37 PLT That's all we need to do. Now, right now is the
unstow VS tree.

SPT-EVA Yes, okay, hold up on that one.

PLT Okayo

CDR-EVA Okay, I'm going to go to the center workstation,

Bill, and get those pictures.

PLT All right. Now while he's doing that, could Ed -

We got the loss-of-comm cue cards yet?

SPT-EVA Yes, yore got that.

CDR-EVA Yes. That's in.

PLT The only other item which - which Ed can do is to

undo the hook straight out and extend the center
workstation bocm, which you can take pictures of it.

03_20 l0 04 CDR-EVAYes.

SPT-EVA All right.

PLT That's what they - that's what Story Just gave me

a minute ago.

SPT-EVA Yes, I - I understand that. I was wondering if we

wanted to do that before, but that's all right.

do, but - -

SPT-EVA Right.

PLT Now we're down to the last page. ....

SPT-EVA On the last page. Always the best one.

PLT That's right.

034 20 ll 19 SPT-EVA Okay, I am going to extend the center - Let me

take a look here.

PLT I see movement outside. Shadows passing by the

window.

CDR-EVA The specter.

SPT-EVA I never got a chance to watch this boom from here.

It's a nice-looking boom.

PLT I must say that the performauce of that boom far

exceeded my expectations.
3898

SPT-EVA Yes, I'm very pleased with that mother; it worked

real well. Now how do I know how far to go with
this thing? Is there a mark on it?

PLT There is when you go too far.

SPT-EVA Well, that's out far eno13gh. Nhooo. Whoa'

034 20 12 45 PLT Awkward to reach the switches, isn't it?

SPT-EVA Yes, especially when I thought it was spring

loaded. I had forgotten that it's not. Man!
Sure forget that stuff in a hurry.

CDR-EVA Give us a wave, Ed.

SPT-EVA You want to save a couple for up - for the view

from up on top here?

CDR-EVA Oh, yes, sure; there's lots left. No, there isn't
lots left.

SPT-EVA Really putting them away, huh?

CDR-EVA Yes, either that, or every time I banged it on

something, it's taken a picture.

SPT-EVA What's it reading?

034 20 13 4_ CDR-EVA 19, 18.

SPT-EVA Thinking that we're Just about there.

CDR-EVA Let me get one of the com_nd module, and I'll

send it on in. There's not much out here - Well,
the underside of the panels would be good to get.

SPT-EVA Yes. If you got something worthwhile, get it.

PLT I've got a picture of the underside of the panels

with the 135-millimeter.

CDR-EVA Oh, okay.

PLT So you can save that one.

034 20 l_ 06 CDR-EVA All right, I got a good shot of the co--,and module
over here.
 3_9

CDR-EVA Well, I'ii just leave the rest for you, Ed.

SPT-EVA 0k_y, Just came on up in this direction and I'Ii -

hand it up.

CDR-EVA It's sitting on 17 right now.

SPT-EVA Okay, well, I'ii run her on down; it may - it may

well be exhausted, but we'll , we'll take what we
can get.

PLT And actually - -

0B_ 20 15 26 CC Skylab, reading you loud and clear through Hawaii

for i0 minutes.

CDR-EVA Roger, Story.

SPT-EVA Okay, Story, we got alI the samples taken in.

We're Just finishing up the Nikon works and we'll
be all set to start packing it a11 back into the
airlock.

-- PLT Let's see; you did get a picture of the boom, right?

CDR-EVA Yes, I got a picture of the boom.

PLT Good.

CC Understand you got the boom out already?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Affirm.

PLT Roger.

OB4 20 16 08 CDR-EVA You better start pulling in my 1_mbilical, Ed.

SPT-EVA Uh-ohl Well, I better get down there where I can

do it.

SPT-EVA Let me get m_ warm, young, tender, pink little

bod down in there.

SPT-EVA You know that we've got a few pieces of gear hanging
around here.
3900

CDR-EVA We sure do.

SPT-EVA Along with ropes, tethers. I tell you, this SOP

was not moid - made to avoid hangups.

SPT-EVA Can you see me good?

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA 0kay, what - in what - what am I hanging up on?

This --

CDR-EVA On the clothesline.

03_ 20 17 01 SPT-EVA And what part of me is hanging up?

CDR-EVA Your - The whole backside. Now try slipping down.

CDR-EVA Wait a minute; wait a minute; wait a minute.

You're on the wrong side of it anyway. You need
to have it in front of you when you go down.

SPT-EVA Well, heck! The darn thing must have crossed under
my feet. _

CDR-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA And your 1_mbiliosl is on this side of it.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

CDR-EVA If you go down that side of it, you Just made a

problem.

CDR-EVA A little bit further.

CDR-EVA Another - There you go; your left - Now you're

free.

SPT-EVA Okay, hey, I'm with it. I see it. Now I'm
straight forward.

SPT-EVA If anyone ever had told me we'd be working in this

environ_nt 2 or 3 years ago, I would have said
they were crazy. No way.

PLT Okay, Ed, where are you right now?

03_ 20 17 54 SPT-EVA With my 1_mbilical tangled around my feet.

CDR-EVA (Laughter)

SPT-EVA Oh dear.

SPT-EVA Just a minute, I need a - -

CDR-EVA There you go on the wrong si - -

SPT-EVA I need a counterwhifferdill.

CDR-EVA Yes, but that's the wrong way if you're going to go

that way. There's the right ws_.

034 20 18 13 PLT I lost control, Story.

CC We copy and we know what that feels like.

MS (Laughter)

CC Both the whifferdills and the control.

MS (Laughter)

CDR-EVA Okay, put my 1,m_ilical in, mcasieur; I shall en -

entr_.

SPT-EVA Okay. It's going in.

PLT Okay, I am going to start reading; you can start

paying attention if you want, or - or not. Verify - -

CDR / (Laughter)
SPT-EVA

PLT - - whatever turns you on. Verify clotheslines

are stowed properly.and EVA area secure. So make
sure you didn't leave any_ching out there.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA Think we got a little bit of doing there.

03_ 20 18 58 CDR-EVA He's got a big white blivet out here he's trying
to get in right now.

PLT Okay.
39O2

034 20 19 00 SPT-EVA Okay, come on over. Come - Aw, your - Needs to

be on the other side of it, I think. But - there.
You're getting it lined up.

SPT-EVA Okay, as you go in, grab that last little fistfull

of umbilical.

034 20 19 18 SPT-EVA Wait! Hold on! Your SOP is getting tangled in

the clothesline.

CDR-EVA Oh, it sure is.

SPT-EVA Back - back out a little bit.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 20 19 25 SPT-EVA Well, you're into a trap that we've both fallen
into more than once tods_.

CDR-EVA Yes, that - There is the disadvantage right there.

SPT-EVA That's Just made for it. Jerry, you're going to

have to go out further there.

034 20 19 40 SPT-EVA Yes, okay. Now pull yourself over this way. Okay,
there you go. Now Just a minute; make sure you
didn't get _r umbilical. Okay. Go ahead.

SPT-EVA There you go. Well, let 's see ; let 's exchange
that - what you have on your wrist right here.

CDR-EVA A] ] right.

SPT-EVA And I'll Just take a little Jaunt over to the

edge there, and pick up what we can and then we'll
clean this thing up.

CDR-EVA Got it?

034 20 20 20 SPT-EVA I have it; thank you.

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Apparently, we still got water, Story, because

l'm still putting out ice.

PLT No, I'm - I'm checking it about every 2 minutes,

Ed, by putting mine to back.
 3903
/--

CDR-EVA I'm still feeling the coolness, so we're in good

shape.

SPT-EVA Long as the CDR's cool, we're in good shape.

CDR-EVA Right.

PLT So in case you're wonderlng, StorT_ I have not

pulled that circuit breaker yet.

034 20 21 09 CC Okay, Bill. And your SUS 2 is looking good.

PLT Yes, I went ahead and went - went through that

entire procedure.

SPT-EVA This is not the easiest Job, is it, Jer?

CDR-EVA No, it isn't.

PLT Man, you've done a phenomenal amount of work in

this short period of time.

CDR-EVA I'm beginning to feel the effects too.

SPT-EVA Little hungry?

CDR-EVA Tired and hungry.

SPT-EVA Got to earn your pay here.

PLT Don't have to worry about that around here.

034 20 23 52 CDR-EVA Ed, if you rotate to your left now, you won't get
hung up in that clothesline.

SPT-EVA Okay, I will when I start the ingress. I Just

got to move up a little bit here; Just a second.

034 20 24 27 CC Skylab, we're a minute from LOS. About 23 minutes

to the Vanguard at 20:47. And, Ed, when you get
inside, could you leave your PCU and L$U connected
for any realf that we come up with, to take a look
at that?

SPT-EVA Okay, I certainly will, Story.

CC They're going to be minor, if anything.

3904

SPT-EVA Understand. Okay.

CDR-EVA Now make sure you're not - You're coming in on the

wrong side of that clothesline, Ed.

SPT-EVA Yes. I got to go back up to where I was.

CDR-EVA Okay, give it a chance. There you go.

SPT-EVA There you go. I Just - I was waiting for those

dynamics.

CDR-EVA That a way.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Now rotate to your left or you're going to get

your SOP caught in it.

SPT-EVA Yes. I Just wanted to get that camera down there

underneath me.

CDR-EVA Further to your left.

034 20 25 39 CDR-EVA There you go. I think that might do it.

SPT-EVA Yes. I think so.

CDR-EVA You did it. Very good.

SPT-EVA Okay. Now let me back down this way.

CDR-EVA Boy, that boom sure is in the way.

SPT-EVA Yes, it sure is. Well, at least the boom you

could retract. Or adjust it. Those clotheslines -
sure is a disadvantage of th_n even though they
are simple to work.

CDR-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA Yes, they're a good contingency mode.

SPT-EVA I think we've planned right.

CDR-EVA Okay.

034 20 26 32 SPT-EVA Here, I'll come out of my - -

 3905

CDR-EVA I'll get it. Got it.

SPT-EVA Okay. Now we got a D02h we ought to tuck away.

And then we' Ii get the - uh-oh.

SPT-EVA ... we can do it.

SPT-EVA I got to figure how we can get the - if we can get

the Sun-end tree with the boom; but we can, I
think. It's going to take a little maneuvering.

03_ 20 27 14 CDR-EVA Oh, that danged white grease. I'm getting it all
over me.

SPT-EVA Sorry about that, Jer.

CDR-EVA Yes.

SPT-EVA I thought that might be a - a problem.

CDR-EVA Yes, you're right. Just hope we don't get it on

any of these samples we're trying to save.

034 20 28 20 SPT-EVA Trying to clean the place up, huh?

CDR-EVA Yes. Get a place to put that D024.

SPT-EVA Hey, you want to put it right on this hook?

CDR-EVA Right here.

SPT-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA Okay, now allow me to get - Oh, l'm sorry.

CDR-EVA Oh, can you unplug that now?

SPT-EVA Oh, okay.

SPT-EVA Yes, they got to come in a little bit. Okay?

03h 20 29 12 CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Which of the trees would you like first?

CDR-EVA Oh, it doesn't matter.

CDR-EVA What are you sending first, the VC tree?

SPT-EVA Yes.
3906

CDR-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Now let's see. You probably want the other sides
coming at you first, don't you?

CDR-EVA Yes - It doesn't matter. Whatever you can get a

hold of best.

034 20 30 30 SPT-EVA Well, I got myself tethered to it right now. And

let me get - -

CDR-EVA All right.

SPT-EVA - - let me get my hand on it.

CDR-EVA All right, now you can untether.

SPT-EVA 0kay. And I'll play goalie.

SPT-EVA Oh, boy. They drilled this hole so darn far in.
Okay.

034 20 31 16 CDR-EVA Oh, dang it. S020's in the way. *** an umbilical.

SPT-EVA Can I move in there and help you at all?

CDR-EVA No, I - I Just have to wrestle it a little bit.

Might as well rest.

SPT-EVA I guess the smarter thing would have been to put

all that stuff in the aft.

PLT No, that's an awkward -

CDR-EVA Isn't going to work.

SPT-EVA S020's in the way, huh?

CDR-EVA Yes.

03h 20 32 23 CDR-EVA There it is.

PLT There you go.

PLT I thought you had it.

CDR-EVA I did too.

 39o7

CDR-EVA 0kay.

SPT-EVA - - foot out of the restraint and then come on in -

part way in. Make sure you got it. Tell me when
you have end I'll ... go - -

03h 20 33 33 CDR-EVA I have it.

SPT-EVA Okay.

SPT-EVA Okay. Now one thing I still have yet to do is to

put that clothesline in the right location.

_ SPT-EVA Now let's Just take a look around this place.

034 20 34 37 CDR-EVA Okay. The trees are in.

SPT-EVA What else do we have?

PLT Okay.

SPT-EVA Everything except the SPT, I think.

PLT D024, the tethers, the clotheslines - -

CDR-EVA Let's see. Read them slow.

PLT I was Just going over it.

CDR-EVA D024's in. All tethers are in. I don't see any
hanging around. The clotheslines are secured.

PLT And you got both trees, obviously.

CDR-EVA Yes.

PLT And everything else I think I checked off or - -

3908

CDR-EVA Okay.

PLT - - noted as you - Okay. Is Ed in yet?

034 20 B5 ll CDR-EVA He's on his way.

PLT Okay.

hold-open rod; close hatch until retainer engaged.

SPT-EVA H_. Just looking around here.

PLT Okay. Take your time.

CDR-EVA Well, I got an umbilical that doesn't want to

stay in here. Just a minute, Ed.

SPT-EVA Okay.

PLT Oh, I'm sorry.

SPT-EVA Hold on a minute.

CDR-EVA Hey, you're tearing the clotheslines all up again.

SPT-EVA Yes.

CDR-EVA What are you doing?

SPT-EVA That won't work. Was a beautiful idea.

034 20 37 01 SPT-EVA Those light bulbs with a seal over would make a
beautiful piece of material sample too. All right,
let me get the other clothesline ham@packed down
in here and I'll be in. Let's see; am I on the
right side of it with my umbilical?

CDR-EVA You look like it.

SPT-EVA Okay.

0B4 20 B7 40 CDR-EVA Okay, now he's getting the hold-open rod loose.
 3909

PLT Okay. Close hatch until retainer engaged, when

you get that done.

034 20 39 18 PLT Okay, l'm timing you for 2 minutes.

SPT What the heck is supposed to happen?

CDR Well, our suit - our suit exhaust is going to

raise the pressure in here about 0.2 or so.

is torn up has re_=_ned.

CDR On both of them?

034 20 46 02 SPT Well, that's one of them. The other one, I don't

TIME SKIP

034 21 35 40 SPT SPT at 21:35. I have some information for the

medical people who may be interested in our body
weights after EVA. During the EVA I worked at
rain cooling for probably about half of it because
of the water leak in our system. Our body weights
after the EVA were: 6320, 6318, 6523. I don't
have the n_,mbers _-,_ediately before. There was
a negligible amount of water lost in urination
after the EVA. I think probably most of the body
weight loss from this morning was due to sweat
evaporation.

got some bad news. Everything went fine when we
retrieved both of your samples. We brought them
into the airlock and tethered them on the gridwork
over the window on the_atch leading into the MDA.
On repressurization, the rush of air from the
equalization valve 311 mannged to take some of
the - one of your samples, and, I would say,
shred about 0.i so, maybe about i0 percent of the
total of one sample. Most of the m_terial is still
there. I would say there is maybe a loss of
material on the order of a couple percent. But
there is then that physical alteration, if you
will, to the foil of approximately i0 percent. We
have not tried to - to go near it or to touch it.
We'll return it as specified, but I'm afraid you'll
find it a little bit harder to work with that
material and that you're missing a - a small
percentage of that material.

035 00 58 01 SPT The one which was damaged is the - the one which
we deployed earlier, not the one from the previous

mission. That was one thing which had never

entered our minds and I don't think anyone else's,
the problem you could encounter on repressurization.
We stowed an awful lot of things up close to the
MDA hatch. And I'm afraid this is one thing which
escaped us and probably - apparently people who
have been planning it. We're sorry; we hope you
don't lose any data.

035 13 51 25 CDR This is the CDR at 13:51 Zulu. Reporting - The

subject is M479, test number l, and material,
aluminized Mylar. I've already reported that the
specimen was in good shape when I put it in.
Ignition: Ignition wire did glow; a flame did
appear; it appeared right at the ignition wire and
then as I stand and look in the window, the flame
propagated to my left and down to the opposite
corner, the furthest corner that's away from
 3921
f--

me. Combustion: Burned over the entire surface?

No, about 25 percent of it. The portion of the
material on my right, but the - to the rear there
to the - to the back of the chamber, peeled away
and rolled up away from the flame and was there-
fore not consumed.

035 13 52 28 CDR The specimen did not drift; it stayed on the rack,
and the only part that really drifted was that
part of the specimen which rolled away, but did -
it did stay attached to the frame. It Just kind
of rolled away from the center of the flame, and
therefore, did not get burnt. Overall size of
the flame: There was a flash when it finally
took off and a rather bright - bright flash, not -
not too white; more of the yellow. And the flame
moved mostly down the left side as I face it and
look at it. I could not see any smoke. We had
all the lights off. The rate of burning was very
rapid. It was all done in about l0 seconds. I
think we should adjust the burn time on a subsequent
specimen to something like i0 seconds ; and that's
what I'll do. 30 seconds is much too long for your
data. It was all burnt out and we were Just sit-
ting here watching it for some time.

035 13 53 38 CDR Flame pulsation: I did not notice any pulsation.

It was Just a steady burn until the - the burned
material was gone.

little
,_! 035 13 53 _6 CDR Particle size: There is a little piece, a
area of gray ash. You have a picture of it. What
I did after the burning was completed and I turned
the flood lights back on, the - I took about
lO frames of - of the DAC data so that you could
see what it looks like. What is very interesting
here is that the smoke looks like a very, very
thin, fine spider web or a milky sort of gossamer,
serpentine - gray film. I 'm trying to think - it
kind of looks like what - what you see in water
when you mix some - some fluids that turn milky
in water. When you inject some of that fluid into
the water, you see this milky, serpentine streaks
moving through the water, but it doesn't thoroughly
mix. And that's what we have here, no convection
of any kind.

035 13 55 00 CDR And the smoke is Just hanging out there. And it -
it's really very interesting. I'm - I think I'll
3922

turn on the DAC when I open the hatch here, so that

you can see what happens to this thin, gossamer '
material when I open the hatch and we get some
air in there.

CDR Extent of the surface burn: I think I estimated

about 80 percent. Melted resolidification: There_
is a little bit of solidification down the left l
side, but not very much. For the most part, the -
the full 80 percent was consumed by the burn,
and there appears to have been no effect on the
viewports. And there's a little bit of gray ash,
a chunk of gray ash, probably 2 centimeters long
and i centimeter in diameter, right about where
the - oh, in fact it's - it's gathered around
the ignition wire. And it's gray. The solidified
material down the left side is black. This is

035 lh 23 50 CDR This is the CDR again at 14:24 Zulu. We'll try
again on a debrief on test article number 2, the
nylon sheet. The specimen was in a good condition;
I already gave you that information. The ignition
 3923

wire glowed, flame - flame essentially did not

appear. The specimen did not burn over the entire
surface. It did not drift. The overall size -
the glow - We got two - two glow points. They
got about as big as a pea. That is, about half
a centimeter in diameter, right at the two pOintl
where the - the wire - or at two points where the
wire is in contact with the nylon sheet. The-
the smoke color is very light - off-white I would
say. Either a very light gray or off-white.
There is - The smoke is hanging right around the
sample, and I would say that on either side of the
sample there's a ball of smoke, a sphere of smoke,
that is approximately 6 centimeters in diameter
on each side. The rate of burning was nil. The
igniter wire went off; it glowed for about 3 sec-
onds and as soon as I heard the click in the
control panel where the igniter wire was turned
off, the flame or the - the glow on the nylon
sample immediately extinquished.

035 14 25 33 CDR I'm looking at the sample now, and the nylon
around the glow wire has melted and I would suspect
that may be what caused termination. The change
of state from solid to liquid and then the liquid
may have caused termination of the burn.

035 lh 25 51 CDR It doesn't look to me like there's enough smoke

in around it close by to cause smothering of the
burning. There was no flame pulsation, no
particle size. The residue: The residue is the -
the melted nylon. Extent of surface burn:
1 percent, 1 or 2 percent maybe. Melted and
resol - resolidified? Yes. Quantity of material
cons,-,_d: Again probably 1 or 2 percent; no effect
that I can see on any of the viewports. And with
the floodlot - light on, I snapped off a few
frames of the sample with the smoke5pall around
it. And that's about it on sample number 2. Now
I'm going to go on to TV-66. Put this on TV, and
I think one of the later samples I'm going to
move the TV around and have it shining in the

After having removed the specimen from the work
chamber and looked at it closely and compared
it with specimen niTmBer 8, it appears that the
two balls of flame or the two br - bright burning
areas that i mentioned that I could see are in
the two center holes where the igniter wire goes
through. It was at those two holes where we could
see the - the glow of the burning. And that would
appear to me to be Just because that's the area
where you've got some flow of air through the
specimen. But as soon as the ignition wire
finished glowing, the burning terminated.

number 3 burned. The test sample was in excellent
condition; the igniter wire was in good condition,
no damage indicated whatsoever. We had a couple
of anomalies on the test. In the first case, the
test time, although the indicator was set at
30 seconds, I think the light flashed at something
like 6 or 8 seconds after the test began. I left
the camera running and - I left the camera running
and ca,,g_t most of it - -

035 14 47 54 PLT MARK.

CDR - - and I couldn't understand why it was burning

so long. And I realized that operator error had
-- occurred, that I had left the CHAMBER REPRESS
valve to the OPEN position.

035 14 48 04 PLT MARK.

CDR So, therefore, the chamber was being supplied

with oxygen from the cabin. So this sample
burned in a continuous supply of oxygen rather
than Just what oxygen was available in the chamber.
So therefore this test, though not invalid, does
not follow your procedure. And so therefore the
amount of oxygen available for combustion is an
uD1_nown.

035 14 48 35 CDR I think we can probably - in the next one where

we do the clinch work, you'll get the kind of
data you need, but this was quite interesting
in that it burned for some time. Bill, go ahead

debriefing card here. Ignition: The wire glowed.
Yes. Flame appeared. Yes. The -the flame
burned over the entire surface: Yes, and the
specimen did not break loose and drift. The fl_m_
was a greenish-blue• very close to the specimen
and out for about 1/8 of an inch, and then for an-
other inch, to an inch and a half - inch and a
quarter - there extended an orange flame which was
rather yellow at its base and very orange out at
the end. You could see little particles floating
off the flame, like little sparks • and then they
would cool and become little black particles. And
I see some littly black particles in the inside of
this work chamber. The overall size of the flame
I gave to you. Flame and smoke: The smoke color
was gray, off-white into gray. You will notice
on your film, also, that the smoke - -

035 14 51 21 CDR Okay, there was about six of those flashes through-
out the time of the ignition. As it was burning,
it burned rather slowly; it took - I didn't time
it, but it took probably 45 seconds to 1 minute
to completely burn. But as I told you, I have -
was busy providing oxygen to it, unwittingly,
through the CHAMBER REPRESS valve ; so - you can
see how it was burning in the presence of oxygen.
Residue quantity: There,s a large quantity, about
2 inches in diameter of black ash; it's still
connected to the frame. 100 percent surface
burned, none melted. Quantity of the material
consumed is 100 percent and -Well, I guess, if
I have a residue it can't be eom - completely
consumed. I do have the residue, and I would
say the whole thing was burnt, but it was all
converted to a black ash, and when I opened the

These are all fairly low-level spot flashes, more

035 14 57 19 PLT MARK.

PLT Okay. That was right eye; got the double-barreled

one. A spot left - far left center in the right
eye and lower left in the right eye; and the one
in the lower left was brighter, but it was an
area. The one in the center was a spot, more
finely focused, defined. And when it was Just
about i0 seconds before I gave that mark, I
thought I saw one center le - field of view, left
eye. It was one of those threshold type. You can
never - you're never quite sure whether it's
because you blinked your eye or what.

035 15 O1 23 CC Skylab, we're a minute and a half to LOS; about

12 minutes to the Vanguard, at 15:12. The VTR
is yours.

CDR Roger. Than_ you, Story.

 3931

CC Okay.

035 15 O1 46 PLT MARK. Upper right, right eye. Spot white flash.

035 15 01 57 CDR This is the CDR at 15:02 Zulu. Sample number 4

on M479. A burn was completed. The sample was
in excellent condition.

CDR When I inserted it, the ignition wire was com-

pletely intact and no cracks in the cerAm_ c of
amy kind. The ignition wire did glow. The flame
appeared. The sample burned over the entire
surface. The specimen did not drift clear of the
support. The overall size of the flame was about
1 inch, I th_n_, in diameter. The - the flame
was very much the same as that which I described
on the - on a polyurethane - correction, on the
sample number 3. I won't even try to name it.
Just sample n11m_er 3.

035 15 03 03 CDR I should - I should say in retrospect, that

sample number 3 did show some pulsation, that
the pulsations were about 2 cycles per second,
and this was during the - the end of the burning
in which the large bubbles of smoke or gases that
would explode or - or flash. Apparently it was
hot enought so that these were flashing much
more - much sooner and you'd see a little one build
and then pop, a little one build and then pop, and
this was about twice per second. On this put -
polyurethane foam on sample nnmber 4 - we'll get
Back to that. Flame color again was blue-green
close to the material, and as you got out away
from the material it was more yellow going to
orange.

03_ 15 03 48 PLT MARK.

CDR Go ahead, Bill.

PLT This is an area flash in the left eye and a sort

of a circular type around the periphery. Go
ahead.

035 15 04 00 CDR Okay, the smoke color was white or gray.

@,antity: Quite a bit of smoke. Quite a bit more
than was present on samples 1 or 2, but about
the same amount of smoke as in sample n11m_er 3,
which I would say was a - a pall, p-a-l-1 of
3932

smoke about the sample that measured about 4 to

5 inches in diameter. About the same amount of
smoke here.

035 15 04 32 CDR Rate of burning seemed to be rather rapid. And

a very fast pulsation of the flame; approximately
6 to 8 pulses per second. I saw the same sparks
coming off that I saw on sample number 3, the
little particles being - moving away from the
sample looking like sparks, and then as they got
further away and cooled, they died out. Test
time of 30 seconds was quite adequate this time.
The sample burned out completely at about
35 seconds, so I tILink we're in good shape for
test time on sample number 4. The particles
that I could see were little orange sparks and
they turned into a little Black particles which
have all Been sucked out now by the - the bmiSk-
B2ad vent.

035 15 05 30 CDR Okay, let's see now. The next thing I owe you
is residue. Residue quantity: there is a little
Bit of residue at the end away from the igniter
coil. It looks 11_ke it measures about 3 milli-
meters in diameter and about a centimeter long.

035 15 05 53 CDR The extent of surface burn is 100 percent melted

and resolidiffed. TI1at little residue looks more
li_e ash than resolidification. I'll call it
ash; if it turns out to be different when I open
it up, I'll tell you. Quantity of material con-
sumed: I'd say 100 percent. Just a little bit
of ash; probably makes up 2 or 3 percent of what
we started with. Effect on viewports: No effect.
All the view-ports look clean.

035 15 06 25 CDR CDR out.

035 15 06 30 PLT This is the PLT. This flash I reported about

3 or 4 minutes ago in my left eye was rather
unusual. It was sort of a flashbulb effect where
the flash seemed to - Well, first it was a -
Just a general indication of illumination in the
left eye. And then I was - I was conscious of a -
a rapidly spreading light in sort of a concentric
fashion near the outer edge of the field of view.
But I did not notice the spread from the center
out. I only noticed the initial flash and then
cau - the - the last few - oh, concentric rings
of the spreading, I guess is the way to say it. ._

Toward the edge of the field of view all the way

b around circularly. It's - it's sort of a flash-
bulb effect, only it's not nearly as bright, of
course.

right eye. White, well defined.

035 15 11 35 PLT MARK. Again. Upper right center, horizontal

left-to-rlght streak. That was two of them right
there in a row. This is the first two streaks
I've seen. And they were very short, you know,
like - oh, if you were holding a piece of paper
at arm's length, it'd have been about a - I
mean - you know, about 15 inches ; it would have
been about 3/8 of an inch long.

they were going in opposite directions, those

about halfway between them. And again I got -

035 15 21 i_ CDR CDR out.

035 15 21 _0 PLT Okay, the myriad of flashing that I reported

last t_m_e - this is I think, what I was seeing,
because ali of a sudden it's Just like a meteor
shower. Except they sort of a11 come in at
different directions. And they're very, very
short streaks. They were not spots, most of
them. They were some spots but they - Most of
them were - I'd say 80 percent of them were
very short streaks. If .you were holding a piece
of paper at normal writing-desk distance, they
would be probably an eighth of an inch long.
And they did have a sort of a head on them,
appeared to have it. Okay, I haven't seen
any now in about 30 seconds to a minute.

PLT By the way, there were probably as mauy as I

called ; there were that many more threshold
types. So there were an awful lot of them
that - you know, it was like - it was like a
sparkler - something more like a meteor shower. •
And some of them were brighter than the others.
Some of them I wasn't quite sure; they were out
in the peripheral field of view and you're not
quite sure you really saw it. If it was an
individual one, you would have reported it, you
39h2

know, because it would have been distinct from

the others. But when - when I was getting
bombarded and zapped there, a lot of them I
was sort of Just questionably conscious of -
aware of. And now l'm drawing blanks. I don't
see anything. I thought for a while there, I
may have gotten well dark adapted for seeing
Background stuff that's here all the time. But
I don't see anything right now.

035 15 25 07 CDR CDR at 15:25 Zulu, M479 sample nl,mber 5. I also

wanted to add that the flammability test timer

035 15 26 33 PLT MARK. Right center field of view, right eye.

It - vertical, trending area flash. Sort of a
linear nature to it, but it was a wide diffused
band, sort of.

035 15 26 55 CDR CDR at 15:27 Zulu, debrief on flammRbility

specimen number 6. The specimen was in good
condition. The ignition wire in good condition.
The ceramic tun - undamaged. The ignition wire
glowed? Yes. The flame appeared? Yes. The
flame - -

035 15 27 23 PLT MARK.

CDR - - did not stay up very much at all. As soon as

the material burned away from the - the ignition
wire, there appeared to be threads or something
in the material and as these threads seemed to
contract due to the heat, some of them snapped.
That is they - they - they whipped and when they
whipped, they whipped little b_11 s of fire off
the material and it floated off into the chamber
and then the balls would go out. One by one, as
these threads began to pop, or whip, they whipped
the balls, the little pieces of the fire away
until finally, it Just essentially whipped the
 3943

fire off and only about 5 to 10 percent of the

material burned and the flame Just died out
after the. the ignition wire finished glowing.

035 15 28 28 CDR Overall, the size of the flame, it started out

about - extending about a half an inch away fro_
the ignition wire and then as the - the little
bat1 s that got whipped off were about a quarter
of an inch in diRm_ter. The fl,m_ color was
yellov to orange. The smoke color, I did not
see any smoke, and there is none hanging in
there now. I beg your pardon - There was a little
smoke in there. It was a light gray. And the
reason why I don't see it now is because I vented
the chamber and it's sitting for 2 minutes. Okay,
very little smoke, however, though - and no soot
wtatsoever. The rate of burning, while it was
burning, was burning quite briskly and - but
every t_= one of the - the material would snap
or pop or undulate, it would snap some of the
flame off and then that seemed to be what reduced
the fl_. Flame pulsation, I did not see it
pulsating. Particle size, I saw no particles
other than the chunks that were flipped off
_ and they were probably an 1/8 to 1/16 of an inch
in diameter and were the center of a ball of
fire which was about i/_ of an inch in diameter.
Residue, there's a little bit of granular residue
left still adhering to the cloth itself. It
looks like extent of surface burn as I said,
5 to I0 percent_ it looks like some of it has
been resolidified and melted right at the threads.
Quantity of the material consln,_d, again 5 to
i0 percent. And it had no effect on the viewport.

035 15 30 05 CDR CDR out.

035 15 30 07 PLT Okay, and PLT, terminating light flash

experiment.

035 15 4_ 18 CDR This is the CDR at 15:_5 Zulu. The subject

is M_79. l'm looking at sample number 7. We have
new film on now. This is Charlie India - I believe
it was 86 - Charlie India, anyway. And on sample
number 7, this is the al,-,_uized Mylar, the
sample - the specimen condition was in good shape;
no problems at all. The ignition wire was in good ,
shape, and the ceramic was all in good shape; no

/
39%_ _

probl_m_ there at all. The ignition wire did

glow; the flame appeared. The flame was very
bright; it was whitish and yello w - white to yel-
low. And it was very flashy. It did not pulsate;
it - it flashed. The Mylar split down the middle,
and the flame worked to the two opposite corners
from the - where the ignition wire was.

035 15 45 33 CDR The flame moved very quickly; the - the material
moved very quickly, and - or I should say the
material burnt very quic_ly. And it split and it
burned in two separate flames, going to the two
opposite corners away from the ignition source.
The overall size of the flame was about a i/2
to 3/4 inch in diameter away from the - the - what
was burning. The smoke color is gray. Q1,an-
tity: each - each area that was - that burned has
its own little smoke ball around it. The smoke
balls are around 2-1/2 inches in diameter on one
side_ on the other side about 1-1/2 inches in
diameter. In the center, around the ignition wire,
the smoke ball is about an inch and a half in
diameter.

035 15 46 25 CDR The soot: there was no soot that I could see;
there are little ash - bits of residue that are
suspended in the smoke. And when I hit the b1,1_-
head, then I'm sure it's going to go away very
quickly. Flame pulsation: there was none. Par-
ticle size: the particles that I see suspended
are extremely, extremely small particles, maybe
1/10 the side of - size of a grain of salt.
Residue: The only residue that's left is one
little bit of black ash with gray tinges around
it in the far - furthermost corner away - this
is the corner that's opposite the one with the
number plate on it. It's the far corner.

035 15 47 19 CDR Up around the ignition wire there's gray ash, and
there's a couple of little pieces of gray ash down
on the frame; that's about it. Extent of surface
burn was lO0 percent; melted and resolidified,
none. Quantity of material consumed, I'd say, is
100 percent. There is very, very little bit left.
And the effect on the view_ has been zero.

035 16 37 24 CDR This is the CDR at 13:07 [sic] Zulu. The subject
is Earth observations handheld photography, re-
porting the latest SEylab _ - correction, Skylab 3
c_era orgy. This one was another one down the
California coast. I had the Nikon with Charlie
X-ray 57 in it, a 300-millimeter lens, set at

San Andreas. I'm not sure about that. I was
mainly concerned with picking up the Kings River,

And then, as I got down by Los Angeles, I moved
on down through the Salton Sea and took the San

did at about 16:00 Zulu was sample number 9, which
is the neoprene-coated nylon. I gave you a
blow-by-blow, as I remember, as the test was going
on. I'm Just reviewing the debriefing we've done
and see if there's auything I might have left out.
I don't think so. There was the same residue, same
pulsatioas, same flame color, smoke color, soot,
particle sizes. Again,! think the little particles
were about - very small, about the size of pepper,
half the size of pepper. Finely ground pepper,
I should say. Okay. That's about it. I've got
sR-T_le number lO in now, which is the polyurethane,
sponge or foam. And we're about ready to get it
started.

number l0, polyurethane foam. Going to DATA START -

035 19 24 41 CDR Now. White, bright flash, very yellow, flame all
along the foam. Pulsation now as the foam begins
to come down near the end. Again, about 6 to
8 pulses per second. The flame is yellow and orange.
It started out rather orange; it's now quite a bit
more yellow. The pulsations have stopped, and it's
now dwindling off. The smoke is white to gray,
very light gray. Okay. Let me get you a picture
of that in the floods now. Very beautifUl, very
graceful-looking smoke pattern. Okay. The parti-
cles in the smoke are extremely fine particles.
I wouldn't even compare them with pepper. They -
they're more like soap floating on water. You know,
it's more of a stain than a particle. Now, there
are a few black particles down at the near end
where the flames started and they're about the
size of pepper grains. Now as this burns, you
will see in the picture, it started - the flame
rapidly propagated from one end to the other, and
then the whole thing burned like one of those
Fourth of July "snakes" -you know, those little
black things that you light a match to _nd they
Just worm and squirm around. And the whole thing

035 15 52 35 CDR This is the CDB again. The time is 15:53 Zulu.
The subject is M487 [sic]. The sample number was
number 8, the nylon. We had the same situation on
burning as we had before. The material burns and
glows only during the period of time that the -
the glow wire, the ignition wire, is actually hot.
I tried it three times and in every case the glow
_mmediately extinguished as soon as the ignition
wire power was killed. I used a 15-second test
time, and in every case it was a - a b,lmmer, you
might say.

035 15 53 26 CDR Okay, the - I don't see any sense in going through
all this thing again. There is no difference in
my debriefing this time than there was from last
time. One peculiar little thing I might say about
the smoke: there is no residue in this thing_
there are no particles, no residue, Just gray
smoke. The smoke has formed above and below the
sample in the form of two mushrooms. One mush-
room cloud above, one mushroom cloud below. And,
as it's now stable mushroom, I'm going to go ahead
and take a picture of it for you.

PLT Jer, I'm through.

035 15 54 06 CDR Okay. Thank you, Bill. Okay, we have the two
mushrooms and really that's about it. The residue
and everything is Just the same. You can see
where it's melted. The flames - the two flame
balls, or glowing areas that were burning, were
the same places that burned on the first sample;
that is, right around the two holes in the center
where the ignition wire goes through. And that
Just about caps it off, as far as the debriefing
is concerned on this particular one. And I'm
starting to vent.

035 15 54 44 CDR CDR out.

035 15 59 26 CDR This is the CDR; M479. The time is 16:00 Zulu.
I'm burning sample number 3 right - correction -
sample number 9 right now. This is the - the
covered nylon, polyurethane covered nylon, I think
it is? And it's taking about as long to burn as
39_6

the last one did that I goofed on and left the

repress valve on with. And it's doing the same
pulsing and flashing. It's got the same blue
flame and the same orange flame ; blue in close,
about 1/8 inch out, orange flame extending as far
as an inch - 3/4 of an inch to an inch out. And
it's doing a lot of - a lot of flashing and
sparking.

035 16 00 14 CDR It's throwing off sparks which are the little par-
ticles. There are little black particles suspended
in the smoke all through the area now. I'll take
a little bit of a picture here, and - with the
floodlight on. As these - as these little black
particles came off, they came off as sparks, and
then they - they cool. I saw - I did not see any
of the big, large bubbles of - of smoke or gas.
They move out and then puff all at once. This was
more of a pulsation thing. And it was - was
pulsing at about, oh, a couple per second or some-
thing like that. And the smoke is gray, same as
last time.

035 16 00 58 CDR So, really, what I showed you last time really
wasn't too far off even though I did goof it up
and leave the doggone cabin repress - or chamber
repress valve. The residue is the same as last
time. There's a little bit of orange left that
you can see in the fold, about the same residue as
before. In fact, I'll give you a couple of frames
of that too, so you can see what the residue looks
like. And that' s about it. There was nothing -
nothing any different about the way this one burnt
than the - than the first time, that I can see.

burned and didn't - and kept its length. And then

finally - the part next to the igniter broke aw_y
and it all burned toward the far end. And that's
when it was doing its pulsating, when it was burning
toward the far end. Then when it got to the far
end, it began to die out, as I told you.

residue as last time; no change in that. Now let's
quickly look over the - the ignition wire glowed,
the flame appeared, no problem. Their overall
size: The flame was again the same size as last
time. Pulsation's the same; residue's the same;
the quantity's the same; extent of surface burn
was 100 percent; no re - resolidification of any
kind. Quantity consumed, 99 percent. There's
Just that little bit of residue left down there,
the ash. Effect on the viewports: Viewports are
still clean. That is so - so beautiful I'm going

smoke before I disturb it.

035 19 _6 12 CDR This is the CDR at 19:46 Zulu. Sample number ii

has been cons_ned by M487 - correction, M497 [sic].
If anything, this particular sample burned a little
less brightly than did the first paper sample.
Ignition wire glowed; the flame appeared; the entire
surface burned. It took i minute and about 12 sec-
onds, I think it was, for the thing to go. The
w_ it - the sequence of events was that when the
ignition wire started, we had a quick flash of
fire. Around the ignition wire it was nice and
orange, and then when the ignition wire went out,
if faded back from a bright orange to a lighter
orange and then fiDally the orange faded out after
about 5 or 6 seconds into nothing but blue.

035 19 47 18 CDR The orange - the initial orange flashed out about
an inch and a half. Then the - the second orange
lasted - oh, I guess that was about 3/_ of an inch
radiation out ; and then it died off. And when it
3950

A_I turned blue, I don't think the blue got more

than 3/8 of an inch away from the paper the entire
time. It glowed very weakly the whole time and
it - it was its strongest Just as it turned blue,
and it Just got weaker and weaker and weaker as
tha paper was consumed. The - there are no large
particles; no soot. The smoke is white. The -
there is some residue suspended in the smoke, and -
In fact, I'll give you some DAC pictures of the
smoke. It looks very much like a - oh, a spider
web or a cocoon. It's like the spider webs you
see down there in Texas. They get into those
trees - the tree moss. It's a very silky looking
spider web, and it's Just very, very stable at
zero g. It doesn't go anywhere; it kind of all
holds together. And let's see. No pulsation,
Just a steady burn. Residue quantity is about the
ssme as before. There's a lot of ash out there,
but if you tap it, it'll be gone. And it represents
probably 30 to 35 percent of the area out there is
still shown in the residue, and it probably repre-
sents 5 percent of the volume. And that's about
it. No effect on the viewports.

035 19 50 35 CDR This is the CDR, M479 at 19:51. I'm holding the
residue of the paper in my hand, and it has a
remarkable strength in it. I'm very, very surprised.
It's - it's quite brittle, but I expected it to be
strictly ash and nothing else, but there's actually
some body and there's a little bit of tensile
strength to this thing - residue. It - let's see
if I can - I'll tell you what I'm going to do; I'm
going to put a little piece of this residue in the
sample with m-,her 8 - with the nylon sample num-
ber 8. I'll put this little piece of residue from
the paper in there.

it is they're doing, they're snapping the flame
away form the area that's being burnt and - now
the burnt area is all away - pulled away form the -
oh, l'm going to give you a little bit of DAC film
here. The burnt area is pulled all away from the
ignition wire and then - that - that got it away
from its source of combustion, and the threads in
the materials started quivering, popping and
snapping and Just snapping the flames away, and
it essentially extinguished itself.

035 19 5_ 07 CDR 'I%is is exactly the same thing that happened on

the last run that we had the IR pictures of.
Residue: There are particles - there are particles,
that's the little Pieces of Teflon that have been
snapped off. And they range from little threads
about 3 millimeters long to tiny little pieces of -
of mR terial, 1/2 millimeter by 1/2 millimeter.

than that, no - no change whatsoever in this -

It Just kind of puts itself out by the - Well, it

at a third of the way through. And this particular
one will be a quickie. Stand by -

035 20 22 12 CDR MARK. There's a third of the way. Okay. That

was very effective as an extinguisher. I ran the
 3952

camera a little bit with the floodlight on; you

can see that it was very effective. I might also
add, it looked like it might have possibly gone
out, or was getting ready to go out, before I
even did the vacuum vent on it, which was surprising.

035 20 23 06 CDR Okay, the - the initial flash in the flame was
unchanged from what we've seen everytime before.
And about all we've seen new is the fact that if
you open the vacuum vent that it will most cer-
tainly put it out, in this particular case.

035 20 28 51 CDR DATA START. Okay, it's -]_eady quit. And we

have a tiny bit of smoke. For one burning, the -
the smoke is almost nil, and rea]ly the melting
is almost nil too. The smoke stands up about -
about 1/2 inch from each side, and covers an area
about the - the - the area of the nylon itself.
I didn't get the two mushroom things until I'd
done it three times.

035 20 29 26 CDR Now I'm going to do it one more time this way.
And then on the last time, l'm going to vent it
Just as soon as I get it started to see how quick
it'll go out. In fact, I better vent it this
time; it'll give you two shots of the vented.
So we're going to the READY now. And here it
goes. Stand by -

035 20 29 _6 CDR MARK. Okay, there goes the glow; going to vent.
Okay. As you can see, it immediately - it _--,e-
diately stopped as soon as I - as soon as I vented
it. Okay, I'm going to cabin - I'm going to
repress it again.

CDR Okay, we are just about repress - we're repres-

surized on the cb_,ber. All right, the repress
valve is closed. We're ready. Here goes another
one for you.
 3953

035 20 30 56 CDR MARK. There goes ignition. We're getting a good

glow. And I went to vent, and it _--,ediately
extinguished it. All right, now I would like to
conduct an experiment with your experiment. And
that is, l'm going to leave the repress valve
open, let it have plenty of oxYgen, and see if it
will burn longer than the 3 seconds we've seen so
far. It could be it's snuffing itself out because
it doesn't have any more oxYgen. And I thine that
would be an interesting thing to find out here.

035 20 31 50 CDR Okay. The repress valve is open. And l'm going
to put it to READY. Okay. You've got your three
datas, and this one is a freebee for me, but l'm
interested to see what's going to happen. Here
we go.

035 20 32 05 CDR MARK. Well, we got a little flash out of it,

anyway. That's about the only difference, is
that it's - it glowed up and then popped and made
a little flash. But it doesn't look like there's
any more - doesn't look to me like there's any
more area melted or anything. Just - we Just got
an extra little flash out of it and that's about
all. That was the only benefit of adding extra
oxygen to it.

035 20 32 45 CDR CDR out.

035 20 35 45 CDR Okay, this is the CDR; M48 - 479. The time is

Stand by -

035 20 36 06 CDR MARK. Well, I got a flash. All right, now it's
burning nice and yellow. All right, it 's about
a third; there it goes. Okay. When I hit it with
the vacuum this time - when I hit it with the
vacuum, it didn't immediately extinguish llke the
others. This one burned on a little bit further
and had a sort of a yellow flash to it. Let me
go through the chain of events again here. It
started off with a yellow flash, a rather bright
flash, and then it settled down to Just an orange
burning color with blue in close, and moved down.
At about a third I hit the vacuum vent; it flashed
a brighter orange again, and then - I - I thine
it was the vacuum that caused the - the cloth it-
f--
395_

self to kind of peel away from the frame. And

the whole thing started rolling up and then iume-
diately died. But it did flash. The first in-
dication when I vented was a flash, and then - then
it died out Just a second or so later.

035 20 37 29 CDR CDR out.

035 20 50 24 CDR This is the CDR at 20:51 Zulu with dialog to go

035 20 50 _2 CDR Hello. I'm in the process of doing M48 - 497

which is the - correction, M479 which is the study
of the fl_-,-ability of - of articles. And what
I have here is a piece of polyurethane sponge, or
polyurethane foam, which I've done a few experi-
ments on, and I found that it really does burn
quite brightly.

035 20 51 12 CDR So I wanted to show it to you for a minute here.

This is specimen number 19. It has a little coil
here on the end and some little wires that come
down. What we do is we put an electrical current
across these wires and essentially ignite this
polyurethane foam while it's inside of a little
furnace. We have a window, and so when I put this
in and get ready to ignite it l'm going to set
the television camera up and allow you to look
in the window and see with me what happens when
this polyurethane foam ignites.

SPT Sorry, I didn't mean to break you up. I didn't

know you were in the middle of all that ...

CDH Oh, where you going with that?

035 20 51 54 SPT I'm not going anywhere. I'm trying to figure out
if I can get these like that and then I'm going
to ...

035 20 59 54 CDR Okay, this is the CDR at 19:55 Zulu. The -

correction, 20:55 Zulu. No it isn't, by golly;
it's 21:00 Zulu. Okay, I'll learn how to read a
clock here pretty quick. We are in the process
now of looking at the f1_--._bility sample
number 19 for M479. I have the television camera
looking into the window of the - of the pressure -
working Chamber. I'm now going to throw the
 3955

switch on the panel which puts us in the READY

position and kills the floodlight inside the -
the work chamber. Now, when I throw the - the
DATA START switch you're going to see an igniter
start, and then you're going to see the - the
polyurethane foam flare up. And after it burns
one-third l'm going to open the vacuum valve
which will extinguish the flame.

035 21 01 02 CDR All right. Here we go. Now. Cameras are Emning.
You see the glow and the flash. And it's about
a third gome. You notice how it flares up and
glows as I dump it. Now it's out. Fantastic.
Now I Just don't know if you were able to see all
that or not. The television camera has an auto-
matic light control in it which sets the - the
f-stop in it when the lights change. It mayhave
been the changes were too fast. But I thought I
would lea - at least experiment and see if we can
see this on television. So, now we'll send it
down to the ground and see if - see what they
think of it.

035 21 Ol _8 CDR CDR out.

035 21 02 20 CDR Okay, for Mh79 - it's now 21:03 Zulu - this is
the CDR. We did the polyurethane foam, sample
number 19 this time, and got some rather dramatic
results. I also had the TV camera set up looking
_n the window over my shoulder. Be very inter-
ested to see what comes of that. However, the
polyurethane foam, when allowed to ignite and
burn about one-third - what I did is I a11owed
the flame to propagate all the way down to the
other end. This is not - you _now the - this -
this is the normal - the way this thing burns.
The flame _mmediately propagates to the other end,
and the whole thing burns. And then the flame -
then the blue flame moves on down toward the far
end.

035 21 03 17 CDR Now - what I did is let the flame propagate over
the whole thing before I extinguished - or hit
the - the vent. And I must say, I was quite -
quite surprised at what I saw, because the poly-
urethane flared up, burned brighter, and began to
look like a corona or an aurora, the way it was a
very diffuse blue flame that was about 4 to - to
3956

6 inches in d_-meter around the - around the

specimen and being blown - or sucked, I should
say, toward- toward the vent. But the flame
started up and went the usual colors of blue to
yellow to orange; blue in close to the foam, then
yellow, and then a very orange flame. And then
the orange propagated all the way and so we had
a big orange hotdog, you might say, until I opened
the valve. And then it flared up, got more
yellow, and then turned to a blue and became very,
very diffuse and expanded from about a diameter
of about l-l/2 to 2 inches to a diameter of 4 to
6 inches.

035 21 04 34 CDR And the rate of burning, I would say, was probably
Just about the same. It looked to me like it -
it Just didn't quit burning until it ran out of
material to burn. Now I noticed that down at the
far end - we have some residue down there that is
not the same as the residue we had for pressurized
burning, or burning in - in atmosphere. And it's
very, very shiny. You've got the old gray resi-
due on there, but you've also got a very shiny
residue sticking on the front of it. In fact, _
I'm going to take a couple of DAC frames of it so
that you can see what it looks like. As soon as
this chamber comes up to pressure, I'm going to
get in and - and touch it with my pencil and see
if it's as fragile as the gray is, or whether it's
as glassy as it looks. I have a hunch that it's
Just shiny, that it's every bit as fragile as the
gray is. But the polyurethane foam is by far the
most spectacular burner of all of the samples
that we have.

035 21 05 59 CDR Now, let's see. No, it's sticky; it's melted, is
what it is. It extinguished so fast that we left
a ball of melted polyurethane down here on the -
on the end, and it probably Just hadn't had a
chance to burn yet. That's apparently what the
situation is.

035 21 08 54 CDR This is the CDR again at 21:09 Zulu on M479. I've
been identifying sample number 16, the polyurethane
foam, as sample number 19. The reason why is
because I turned the cover upside down and Just
looked at the 6 and saw a 9 and wasn't even really
thJn_ing too clearly. But anyway, polyurethane
 3957
f_

foam is the one I've been calling number 19.

That's the one that flared up and had the aurora-
like affect that we've seen. l've got the tele-
vision of it. In fact, on television I believe
I called sample number 19, so you'll have to Just
kind of scratch all that stuff out. Okay, l'm
now moving on to sample number 17, which is the
paper. And I'll be back up in Just a minute.

035 21 17 36 CDR Okay, this is the CDR. M479 at 21:18 Zulu_ star-
ting with sample number - number 17. And l'm
also doing a video tape on this same sample.
This is the paper sample. It's bleached cellu-
lose paper. And l'm going to do the same thing
as we did with the polyurethane foam_ that is,
we'll start the - get it ignited and then, once
it's ignited, we will let it burn about one-third,
and then evacuate the chamber and see how it
quenches the fire.

035 21 18 17 CDR Okay, we're at the READY now. Here we go. Stand

r 035 21 18 24 CDR Ignition. You see the glow and the smoke, a
little flare. Okay. You notice the - the orange
flame dies out and it Just becomes sort of a blue
gl - glow that extends all the way down the -
the width of the paper. Well, I can see that
you're having difficulty seeing it. A11 right,
we're now one third of the way down the paper,
going to quench. Now. Very bright blue. Now
it's out.

035 21 19 03 CDR Okay. The differences between this and the nor-
real pressurized chamber are the fact that when
you do the quench - the vacuum quench - you im-
mediately get a bright flash of orange - the
orange flame, and the whole flame appears to
streak toward the vent valve. And then, instead
of the blue glow, it settles to a much brighter
hue of - of blue, much brighter. And, instead of
only being about 1/2 - 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch above
the paper, it Jumped to being about a good inch
above the paper, and then it extinguished. So it
was quite beautiful; however, nowhere near as
spectacular nor as ominous looking as the poly-
urethane foam. Let's see, I don't think there's
anything else. The big thing is - is on - is on
quench. The fact that it did flare before it
_- went out.

035 21 26 ii CDR This is the CDR at 21:26 Zulu. M479, s_ple

number 18. This is the Teflon fabric, or I should
say Just Teflon. The television is running again;
we'll see if this - I've got some low outside
light level now. We'll see how this works on
television and this will be our last experiment
with TV. Okay, PO_ is ON; sample I.D. 's been
done. Stand by.

035 21 27 O1 CDR MARK. There's the glow.

CDR Okay. That was kind of a b,lmmer. I caught it

Just as the last piece was flying off and - by
the way, I did not get the television going after
all. I got it - there was no change in the char-
acteristics of burning of this. And I hit the
vent Just as the last piece was flying off and it
went strea_ng over toward the vent. But it nei-
ther flared nor anything else. I don't think
it'll do any good to try. Let me try resetting
this rascal again and seeing what happens.

035 21 28 17 CDR No, nothing happened. The - the m_terial's too

far away from the igniter coil. Okay. Well,
that's too bad. You Just - the Teflon Just doesn't
seem to give you enough - enough contact with the
wire to do much with. And m-ybe I could've helped
if I had quenched it Just a tad earlier; we
might're been able to see something. But it all
happened much too quickly, really. And we didn't
get very good data from that at all.

035 21 28 51 CDR CDR out.

 DAY 036 (AM) 3959

036 O0 54 38 CDR This is the CDR at 00:55 Zulu, M479 sample

number 19. This is thereal sample 19; this is
aluminized Mylar. And we are going to try a
quench here. The lower spray nozzle does not
appear to be spraying water. I 'm not sure whether
it's iced up or what. I ran the test on it, and
it did not spray. And I don't have time to fool
with it. We're Just going to have to get by with
one spray nozzle if that's all there is.
SAMPLE I.D. By the way, starting with number 19
we have about 45 percent left on the supply reel
which is Charlie India 98. So we're going along
pretty well.

036 00 55 38 CDR The READY light is on. And, let's see, test time
is i0 seconds there. Okay, FLAMMABILITY POWER,
ON; SAMPLE I.D., ON; TEST - There, I changed the
TEST down to i0. It was at 30, and then I -
what I did is I RESET the READY Just to make sure
that if there's some sort of logic in there that
had - won't look at that. So we got it now.
I 'm turning down the lights.

036 O0 56 21 CDR And we'll START the DATA, and hope that the spray
works. The lights are dimmed; houselights are
low. Here we go. Stand by.

036 00 56 40 CC Skylab, Houston. We are AOS through the Vanguard

for 9 minutes.

CDR Get my left hand on the water spray valve here.

Okay, stand by -

036 00 56 59 CDR MARK.

SPT Hello, Crip. I managed to get ...

CDR Okay, that one was a b_-,mer.

SPT ...

CDR And we did not get any spray either.

CC ...

CDR But your- -

SPT For a while there I thought you had a guy in

stowage who didn't know the ropes.
3960

CC Oh, oh.

036 00 58 07 CDR Okay, this is the CDR again with M479, sample 19.
Not only did the sample poop out on us with about
one-third burnt, but I do not see an indication
that we got any spray. And, of course, the
houselights are so low I couldn't see. So I sm
going to spray it Just for - for luck Just to
see what happens. Oh, a little tiddly dribble
out of the top nozzle and nothing out of the
bottom nozzle. Beautiful.

036 00 58 49 CDR Okay, I'm going to evacuate this thing. I don't

know what to tell you on this. It worked - it
worked fine in the test, and now it's not working.
I'll try going back and stroking the accumulator
again. Go through a fill cycle. But, at any
rate, there's the burning itself. You have - now
have a film of it. And it was rather disappoint-
ing. It started burning and - and then Just
pooped out.

036 O0 59 28 CDR And the ignition wire is broken. And when I put
it in it was in good shape - excellent shape.
Everything was - was real fine. But it - it
looks like the ignition wire must have burnt
in two, and that made the whole thing quit. So -
but I'm real disappointed in the spray nozzle.
It Just - it won't go. Now I - I did not run it
with the accumulator deal. I ran it Just strictly
with the water - water spray and the accumulator
fill, you know, on the test. Okay, that's better;
much better except Just the upper one is working;
the lower one is not working. And I'm - I'm
very so_:ry I don't have time to mess with it to
figure out what's wrong with it. It's probably
got some sort of a impediment in it or something.

036 01 00 32 CDR Okay, I've now got the chamber in vent again,
trying to get this water to sublime out of here.
Well, it's J.ust going to turn to ice. I might as
well dry it out with my towel. At any rate, the
flame was pretty much the same as before except
that it Just pooped out early; whereas the first
two - three tests, the flame made it all the way
to the end. In this case - well, no, the first
two tests, it made it all the way to the end,
 3961

then we extinguished the sec - the vacuum extin-

guish one. And so this was a bummer as far as
the spray is concerned. It - it quit before the
spray could even get to it.

036 01 01 19 CDR CDR out.

036 Ol i_ 56 CDR Okay, this is the CDR, M479. Specimen n1-,_er 20

is in there now, and we're ready to start the
process. Checking all ports closed. Oksy, the
hatch is closed; POWER is ON; SAMPLE I.D. ;
i0 SECONDS, system is READY. Ed, l'm goin6 to
turn off the lights for a second, l'm going to
turn off the lights for a second. Okay, stand
by. Let me get m_ hand on the valve.

036 O1 15 _l CDR MARK. Yes. A great big nothing again. Your

water spray isn't worth a tinker's hoot. Well,
it's not spraying out. It Just dribbles. Okay,
this - this sample was also a bummer. It quit
burning Just as soon as the - the igniter
finished.

036 01 16 16 CC Skylab, Houston. We are AOS through Canary

for i_ minutes.

CDR And after that 3 seconds is about when I turned

on the water trying to catch a little bit of
that. Of course, the water Just piddled along
and - and missed the target. And I don't know
why it's playing that gmme with me.

CC That 's affirmative.

CDR It - -

CC We also need to get the circuit breaker for that.

CDR - - it's not - -

CC And l'm trying to - -

CDR - - spreading out.

CC - - see whereabouts on the panel it is. It's on

panel 202, needs to be closed. It's in the left-
hand portion of it, down at the bottom.

CDR Well, I'm going to - -

3962

CC And we are ready for the - -

CDR - - do another system fill and purge.

036 01 16 54 CDR CDR out.

036 01 16 56 CC - - for the photo log.

036 01 34 04 CDR Okay, CDR at 01:34 Zulu. I've completely reserv-

iced the water quench system. The lower nozzle
is still not working properly. And I have sample
m_mher 21 in now, and I Just hope that we get
something cooking right here now. I hate to not
get the data We want. There's the SAMPLE I.D.
we have a READY light. Houselights are going
dim. Get m_hand on the spray nozzle. Okay,
standby -

036 01 34 42 CDR MARK. Got a good glow. Oh, the fire is spreading
very nicely. _ay, the 10-second thing worked
right. Okay, it popped loose and rolled up.
And that really put a kibosh on the fire. It's
rolling up in itself. Now I'm turning on the
spray. Nothing. One lousy - it's blowing
bubbles at me.

036 01 35 26 CDR _ay. What I did is I pulled up on the accumulator

knob and really made a - a spray of water. And
it only - it didn't exactly precisely impinge on
the - on the target. And, therefore, the water
that was added madethe target burn brighter -
made the ssmpleburn a lot brighter. And you're
seeing that on film now. I'm seeing a lot of
bright flashes - i, 2, 3, about 2 per second.
4, 5 - it's Just pop, pop, pop, flashing brightly.

036 01 35 05 CDR The flame itself is bubbling. It - it looks

like lava Just about, with the little bitty red
sparks going off of it. It's Just about burnt
out. Okay, with the top nozzle aimed more toward
the near end of the - of the sample, I'm going
to have to start to spray before we get two-thirds
burned, because I miss it the other way. Now-
I'm evacuating the system now. Now what I've
got to do with the accumulator is reach up and
grab the little knob, and - and lift it to make
it spray, because it doesn't have enough poop to
do more than Just blow a bubble or s - or piddle
 3963

out one little bitty, straight string of water.

So if I reach over and grab the acc_,_lator knob
and pull smartly upon it, that forces the water
out through the system a lot faster and makes it
more of a - more of a spray. So that's going to
be our solution for the next one I hope. Maybe
we'll get a decent spray.

036 01 37 26 CDR But this - this spray Just flat missed it. By
the time I thought to go over and grab the
accumulator knob and ya_ on it, the - the fire
had burnt back to where it was out of the f -
out of the way of the spray. That's a shame.
Doggone it. Okay, but anyway this one burnt
very nicely, and when I got the water in the
chamber with it it really flared up, as you will
see in your - in your film. But the burning
again, I thought, was about the same. I thought
it was a perfect description when I said it looked
like lava. That's what the orange flame looks
like on this particular sample. It - it's boiling
out, looks like lava. It - it - it's got bubbles
popping from little lumps like thick lava popping,
or molasses candy, or something like that, popping,
at you. And it's throwing off little sparks each
time it pops.

036 01 38 28 CDR Okay, this is the CDR going off the line. I'm
going to set up n,lm_er 22.

036 01 42 03 CDR Okay, this is the CDR. M479 at 01:42 Zulu. I

have inserted sample nl,mber 22, good old polyethel -
polyurethane. And I hope it's going to burn a
ripsnorter for us. I should remark to you that
l'm only giving you negative - only going to give
you negative reports from now on on the condition
of the samples because all the samples are in
excellent condition. This particular one is in
good condition with the exception of one of the
electrode wires. The - the ceramics around it,
is - is broken - is cracked and it's got a little
V in it. But it looks to be in excellent condition.
It's got - it's - it's fully there. There is
nothing missing, so we're in good shape. 0k_,
POWER is coming ON.

036 01 42 54 CDR By the way, it's taking a little longer to do

these, because I have to take the camera pro-
396h

tection port, that little window, out every time

and - and clean it off - wipe it with a towel so
that we can see through it with a camera. SAMPLE
I.D. We have a READY light. I'm d_,,_ing the
houselights. 0kay, stand by -

036 01 h3 19 CDR MARK. All right, we got a good flame, so l'm

going to catch it early. Piddling again. There
we go. There's the water, l'm lifting up on it.
It's also- seems to be stimulating the fire,
making it much whiter and brighter and blue.
Ckay, l'm turning the valve off. It did not
quench the fire; it only made it go from the
orange more toward the white, and pick-up a little
tinge of blue around the outside. But it did not
quench the fire. Okay, I better check the film,
too. Dadgum accumulator's a pain in the neck.
It's not doing its Job. All right, this says
we're empty. I'm going to have to change the
film after this one, but I do not have an END-OF-
FILM light. I'll go ahead and run it to END-OF-
FILM light. There we go. That's - good thing I
did that, because there was only about 2 seconds
more of film left. _

036 01 45 03 CDR CDR going off the line. Next sa_ple will be 23.

036 01 55 38 CDR This is the CDR at 01:56 Zulu, M479. l've got
sa_ple number 23 installed now. The accumulator
has been recycled, l'm going to cycle it again
Just to mBke sure. And closed. 0k_. POWER's
ON; we got a SAMPLE I.D.; i0 seconds; and we
have a READY light. Houselights are dimming.
Let's hope this one works right. Stand by -

036 01 56 25 CDR MARK. Camera's running fine. We got good igni-

tion, nice, yellow flame. Now it's fading out,
going to blue. All right, we have blue working
down. We Just had a flssh from your data camera.
The blue's down about one-third now. The white
and yellow flame is completely gone, _u_ the
paper is enveloped. The burn - the burning part
of it - the first third of it is enveloped in a
blue haze of water -i mean of - of flame. All
right, I'm quenching now. It's apparently Just
piddling here. It's going at full spry. All
right -
 3967

036 02 26 42 SPT Okay. The limb volume measurements for the PLT
follow. Left arm; they go from i to 21: 16.8,

SPT Going back to the SPT, the neck reading was not
given; and that is 39.2.

036 02 28 36 SPT SPT out.

036 02 30 54 CDR Okay, this is the CDR at 02:30 Zulu. I am inser-

ting sample number 25 into the chamber. This is
the al,-,_uized Mylar, but with the accordian fold
in it. Okay. B,_1_ead vent valve, and those
chamber vent valves, and the chamber repress valves
are all closed. The vacuum cleaner valve's closed.
The hatch is down. POWER is ON. There's SAMPLE
I.D. I've got 60 seconds; I don't believe 60's
going to be right. Let's save film and go for
30, and if it lasts longer than 30 1 Just won't -
I won't hit the RESET switch. But I'm sure it's
going to go quicker than even 30 seconds. Okay.
We have a system READY light. Light's coming
off. No quenching of any kind here ; Just watch
her burn, I do believe. _e sure.

CDR That's right. We're Just going to let - let these

burn out completely. Okay. Here we go. Stand
by-

036 02 32 23 CDR MARK. Very, very fast fire. Very fast. And now
it 's burning very slowly and yellow. It 's very
hot and white and yellowish looking, and it quickly
moved to the side and burned all along the side
of the frame. And now it's - it's the last embers
of it along the frame. And now I will give you
some pictures of the smoke that's left. The smoke
patterns are Just really works of art. They're
really gorgeous. With the zero g and - and zero
3968

movement of the air, it's Just beautiful the way

these things stay the way they do. Very, very
fast burning. It was over - it was all over in -
in less than a second, I think, as you will see
on your film.

036 02 33 22 CDR The residue is about the same. There's little

bits of brown and gray residue caught in the
smoke. But nothing any different this time than
we've seen before as far - except that it Just
burned much quicker. The corrugation really
seemed to - to help it. I'm going to dump the
chamber now, and going off the air for a few
minutes.

036 02 36 37 CDR Sample number 26 is in place for M_79, and it's

02:37. Sample number 26, the nylon. And it looks
like a hollow box with a fila - with a filament
in it. Okay. The vent valves are closed. The
chamber door is closed. The REPRESS valve is
closed. POWER, ON. SAMPLE I.D. We're set at
30 seconds. I'll leave it there. The lights are
going off. Okay. We have a system READY. And
here we go.

036 02 37 21 CDR MARK. All right. We got ignition. We got a

glow and a flash. And that was it. It completely
pooped out. Now the smoke cnm_ng out from it
looks like a butterfly. Let me give you a little
picture of the smoke. There. Now I'm going to
RESET, and we'll try another one.

036 02 37 42 CDR MARK. There it goes again. Now we got some

flame this time. Is it going to support combus-
tion? Yes. It's going to burn for a while. We
got a big flame, not a big flame. It stuck out
about 3/4 of an inch in a - in a very yellowish
bubble. And then it - it faded, and now we have
a yellowish blue glo - glow going. And the nylon
is burning, and doing very nicely. It - The glow
appears to be blue in close and moving through
the whites out to yellow - to a white out to
yellow at the outer side, and it's still - it's
still going well past 30 seconds. Melting. Oh,
this - this is nice.

036 02 38 36 CDR I guess that first nylon block was Just too thick
and it extinguished itself. But this one seems
 3969

to have a little more burning surface available,

and it seem_ to be able to support its combustion
now without smothering itself out. But as you
can see with your camera - with your film, it's
h_nging in there all the way now. Melting. OEay.
We still have our same thing. Over - We have blue
in close, and yellow out. And the further out,
the yellower it gets. But it's not extendin_ out
more than a q,_Arter of an inch, except over at
one corner of the ignition wire. And that seems
to be a special little spot where some of the
burning is concentrating, and it's sort of a
bright yellow or gold. So we have - still have
combustion going on. We have better than a minute
gone on elapsed time. This one's going to burn
up your film. A very slow burner; however, knowing
nylon, it's probably rather hot, and that - that
melt, if it ever stuck to you, it would really
hurt.

036 02 40 18 CDR Well, once you get nylon ignited, it'll go, but
you - you really got to work to get it ignited,
I see. Notice the pop. They're like - like
bubbles - teardrops punching out and popping, and
_ then going back in. That's really interesting.
Now those - those teardrops are going out about
an inch and a half - an inch to an inch and a
half. Going in all directions. There doesn't
seem to be any preferred orientation for those
yellow-gold bubbles of flame that - that pop out.
And they don't seem to burst; they Just - they
Just stretch out and flash and then collapse.

CDR Now this is going to blow a whole magazine full

of f_Im, I do believe.

CDR This is amazing.

CIIR Well, I don't see anything new and different

happening, l'm going to kill the camera, and
I'ii tell you how much time longer it burns.
Stand by -

036 02 _2 37 CDR MARK. All right. I'ii tell you how much longer
it burns doing the same sorts of things. Now, as
I sit here and look at it, I see a - a big black
bubble of - a wad of residue sitting on the two -
on the support out there. And it's Just popping
3970

and snorting. And - A] ] right, it 's been going

for an extra 30 seconds. It's still burning;
still doing exactly the same thing as what the
movie was doing, so if it starts something new,
I've got it back to the READY now - If it starts
something new, I'll start a new data take. I
don't see any sense in wasting a lot of film on
Just looking at the same stuff.

CDR Since it's now a round glob, the - the blue flame,
which stands up about a ql,avter of an inch, is
all the way around it. And these yellow bubbles
of fire are still blasting off in all directions.
It's strictly random. Now they're picking up -
they seem to be a little bit more frequent now.
We - I don't know, you might call these little
pulsations because these bubbles did not break
away from the - from the flame that's around
there. And they Just kind of stick out like
they're made out of rubber or something.

CDR Think I'll look at the chamber pressure, see

what it looks like. It's up to nearly 6, so we
got a psi of pressure in there. That thing is
still burning.

036 02 45 05 CDR An extra 2 minutes and 30 seconds so far. If I

give you bum dope with my watch, you can Just
tell from this tape how much longer it's been.
Did a time hack when I said mark.

CDR 3 minutes have gone by now; still at it. See how

much film is left on this cassette. 40 percent.
We used nearly - Well, I guess we used about a
half a roll of film on this one. It's really
interesting.

036 02 46 25 CDR Okay. Because some of the puffs are getting

bigger, I'm going to give you some data. It's
very definitely changing its nature now. The
blue halo is getting bigger. It's up to about a
half inch now, and it's shooting off the - the
big blobs of fire - much larger blobs now than
before, as you can see on your data. Where was
that? I guess that was at about 3-i/_ minutes
or so; 3 minutes and l0 seconds when I finally
turned it back on again.
 3971

CDR Now what's happening is that thing is blowing

bubbles, and when the bubble bursts - it Just
sends that Jet of fire. That's what is happening.
_ne main residue - the _n blob there is blowing
bubbles. And when the bubble bursts you get a -
a - a Jet of fire. I'm going to turn off the
camera again.

036 02 47 59 CDR I wish I'd started my watch when this thing first
started. I - You'll be able to tell from the
tape how long it burned, but it's - I guess it's
been about 6 minutes now, and it se_m_ to be still
going strong.

CDR Well, now I can't decide whether I can give you

more data by stopping this and going on to some
more samples, or by Just letting you watch this
until it dies. But I'm going to - I'm going to
take the bull by the horns and move on because
there's different kinds of data available for us.
So I'm going to terminate this one with a quench -
the vacuum quench. And we'll see what happens.
It seems to - kind of excite it when you - Okay,
excited it. It got more yellow. The blue started
disappearing, and then finally it went out. I
have a great mass of writhing, seething black
liquid in there. It's bubbling and smoking away.

CDR Okay. This is CDR going off the line.

036 02 49 48 CDR I'm going to let this cool and then prepare
sample 27.

026 02 54 07 CDR This is the CDR at 02:54 Zulu. Putting sample 27

in the chamber. Vent valve's closed. REPRESS
valve is closed. Cb-mber hatch is closed. POW_L_
is ON. SAMPLE I.D. l'm going to leave this at -
and I'ii go to 60 seconds. I have a READY light.
Light 's going off. Data start -

036 02 54 3_ CDR Now. Okay, we have ignition; very orange. This -

this piece of material has the same tendency to
kind of roll up on itself. It Just flipped over
and extinguished itself. Okay. l've turned on
the light. Let me give you a picture of it now.
Now this is kind of what it did on the last one;
that is, one corner got loose and it rolled up
 3972

on itself. And when it rolled up on itself, it

put itself - dawned near put itself out. In this
case, this - since there was no other support out
there, this one folded over on itself. And as
soon as it folded over on itself, it put itself
out. The residue is the same as usual. The smoke
is the same as it was before. Nothing too star-
tling about this sample except the fact that it
has this tendency to roll up or fold while it's
burning. And this tendency is what helps it ex-
tinguish itself.

036 02 56 08 CDR This is CDR going off the line.

036 02 58 13 CDR Okay. This is the CDR at 02:58 Zulu, inserting

specimen number 28, our old bright, colorful
friend polyurethane foam. And - okay. The vent
valves are Closed. CHAMBER PRESS valve is closed.
Vacuum is closed. POWER for flammability is ON.
SAMPLE I.D. 60 seconds. I'm going to drop this
one back to 30 because I bet it'll go faster. We
have our system READY. The lights are going off.
And here it goes.

036 02 58 _9 CDR MARK. Okay. Glowing bright flash of orange, and

then it went and extended all the way out the end
Just like before. We got pulsations - lots of
pulsations and yellow flame - yellow and gold.
This time, since there was no support out on the
other end, it had to go out to the other end,
burned all the way the length out to the other
end, and then come back to this end to finish its
thing. Lots of little sparks coming off. All
right, it's out.

CDR Okay. I'll give you a shot of the smoke. The

little particles are Just little ash particles
that look like pepper suspended in the smoke.
Okay. Same general colors as before. A bright
flash at the beginning, which I did not notice to
be - the others to be quite that bright. A bright
flash of white and ora - white and yellow, and
then off she went. And it burned all the way to
the other end like I described.

036 03 02 20 CDR MARK. All right. This is the paper. We had a

yellow glow, and then a - a flash. Now we h_ve a
white to gold - the white to gold extended out
about an inch, and then faded back to about a
q,1-_ter of an inch. And now it's completely gone,
and we have our usual blue flame, and it's moving
in the same direction. We have some little orange
sparks, that's the little particles that are -
seem to be floating away - migrating away. And
they seem to be going away from the edges of the -
of the materiel. Lots of little tiny blue, orange
sparks. A11 right, they've about finished. This
time the - the paper looks like it may Jus_ nreaK
free and drift. It's still yellow, but it's be-
ginning to die, and you can see it's yellow and
it's blue in patches now. I don - I didn't mean
to say yellow, if I did back there a ways. You
can see it's blue in patches, and those patches
are very slowly dying out. Long lasting; very
surprising. The unsupported flammability speci-
mens seem to have more longevity in the burn than
the supported specimens.

036 03 04 03 CDR Okay. And l'm going to terminate now in order to

save film. Give you a few frames of the smoke
pattern, and you can see the residue in there.
See how our film is coming along, l've got to
quit here, and I think I'll _ust hang on until
the film's gone. We have about 9 percent which
is probably enough for one more specimen, and
then l'm going to have to c-11 it quits. Got to
get up early tomorrow and begin deactivation.
l'm sure sorry that we weren't able to finish all
of your - all of your specimens. This is really
getting to be the interesting psmt. But -

036 03 06 40 CDR MARK the data. Okay. We got a nice ignition.

Yellow fla - yellow flame, gold, I should say.
Looks pretty much like the paper one did. It
folded over Just like the neoprene-covered nylon,
but this one is still hanging on. It's got a
nice bubble of gray smoke about 4 inches in dia-
meter. And finally, it is beginning to poop out.
And we have an END-0F-FILM light. Okay. This
particular sample Just lasted longer than the
others, but it essentially did the same thing.
It burnt itself away from the - the source of
ignition. And what little pieces were next to
each other kept on going, and once they burnt out,
the fire Just did not propagate. And we end up
with something like 5 percent of the material
burned, while the rest of it is intact. And it
folded back, in id - the identical same way that
the neoprene-covered ny - nylon did earlier.

CDR Okay. This is the CDR. I'm terminating M479 at

this time, having completed sample 30. 31, 2, 3,
4, 5, 6, and 7 have not been completed, and I
regret that. I do not think I'ii be able to get
to them tomorrow. However, if time does permit,
I will give it a try. I'm going to leave the
system set up in hopes that an opportunity will
present itself to finish.

036 12 04 44 SPT SPT at 12:05 recording - re-recording the informa-

tion on MIBI run yesterday. As best I can recall,
my comments were, if anything, general. I felt
very sleepy after the first level of acceleration.
First level, I think I did pretty well on; I felt
 3975

fairly sharp when I sat down in the chair and -

and it all seemed very obvious to me. Then I
started - find myself, when I closed my eyes, start
dozing off between each one of the runs. It was
next to impossible. And then, soon as I had to
open my eyes and look at the - look at the line,
it took me a while to get myself all organised.
Try as I might, there was no - no putting it off.

036 12 05 37 SPT So I think this was probably reflected in some of

the later results, that is, of the second and third
level. By the time we got up to the fourth and
fifth, however, the rates were so high that I don't
think I had too much problem detecting them,
although there may have been an error or two in
there. There was at - one time where Bill had to
punch in - press in a left - or a right, and then
he had to punch in four or five lefts Just to let
you know that I really had changed my mind. I
thought one and put up the other. And it wasn't
I had changed my - it really wasn't that I had
changed my mind about what I was seeing; I Just
put up the wrong hand. It may have been the oppo-
site, I don't recall. But the line never moved
any way other than left to right. And I always -
I could feel that I was rotating at the hi_her
level.

036 15 38 54 SPT Okay, I can see no problem there. But let me go

in and describe a little bit more of what did hap-

the day before, on the EVA. The - lock was open,

CC Okay. Stand by for a minute it; we'll get you an

036 15 42 l0 SPT - - composite disconnect hinge, for lack of a

better term. The handle was pulled out, but it
was not rotated any more than maybe 5 degrees where
there is a small stop there. In other words, when
I looked down and saw it, all I had to do was essen-
tially push the knob - or push the hinge back in
and lock the knob. It had not started, as far as
I could tell, to start to move the composite dis-
connect away from the PCU. But again it was EVA
and whether it came out and then got pushed back
in or - that is, whether the hinge came out and
then got pushed back over again while I was working
in there, that's a possibility.

036 15 _2 56 SPT If that did happen and water comes out and _mme-
diately freezes, then you have a potential for an
open which perhaps could not be closed by securing
the composite disconnect the way it's meant to be.
That will have to - you'll have to work that one
out. The ice which I saw come out was right around
the hinge of the composite disconnect lock, if you
will, down there at the base between the REG 2
nc_enclature, and the EVA HIGH FLOW nomenclature as
well as some out the front which I could not actually
see.

037 02 58 54 CDR This is the CDR at 03:58 [sic] Zulu. Subject is

M_79. And I'm going to try to whiz off a few
more samples here before I go to bed. I think my
conscience would bother me if I didn't try to do
Just a little bit more on this one. I have sam-
ple number 31 in the c_=_er at this time. The
chamber is sealed; the REPRESS valve is CLOSED;
the vent valves are closed. POWER in ON,
SAMPLE I.D., 30 SECONDS. We have a system READY
light. We're killing the lights. And here we go
with a -

037 02 59 33 CDR MARK.

CDR Okay, we got a blossom and a - a flare, and it's

.... burning on one side. Now it's burning through
to the other side. It started out orange, went
out about an inch to an inch and a half in sort
of a flash, and now it's settled down and worked
its way through to the other side. And now it
appears to be burning toward the end in a -n_form,
low, blue flame. The blue flame looks like it
probably doesn't extend more than - a - a quarter
of an inch above the paper itself. And it's
burning very, very slowly.

CDR Occasionally we get a little spark or two. We're

getting a little pulsation from the blue, and it
stopped. It transferred over from one sheet to
the other, oh, I would say within i or 2 seconds
of the time that the ignition started. And now
we have a little pulsation that looks like it's
getting ready to go out. It's now burning along
the sides, and the center part is not burning at
all. I have to say it's Just glowing.

037 03 00 48 CDR The top side looks like it's trying to go out.
Very - very poor combustion, I guess. It's Just
more or less not smoldering, but Just glowing
3984

very, very dimly; no c_ange. Looks like it's

gotten its second wind now. And all the blue
flame on the side I can see has Joined up again, l
And it's still moving its way very slowly down
the paper.

CDR Okay. I th_nk we've seen enough of this. l'm

going to terminate since to the shortness of time
and the fact that this really isn't ma_ing any
headway. We got occasional pulsation of about -
roughly 2 pulses per second, then it stops. You
can see the paper is almost f1111y consumed. Let
me give you a couple of frames in the floodlight
here; lot of smoke. The paper is brown, charred,
almost burnt completely to the far end. Okay,
l'm going to vent now.

037 03 02 03 CDR And when we vented, we got a flare up again. It -

it - glowed. The - the blue increased and I got
a little bit of orange out at the end, and then
it all blew out. But it seems that the initial
onrush toward the vent must bring some air that's
got nitro - got oxygen in it from other parts
of the cb-mber, brings it by the sample and causes
it to flare up.

CDR Okay. I think the next time, I'ii - I'ii hit the
vent while it's still dark, and you can see what
happens.

037 03 02 38 CDR CDR out.

037 03 03 48 CDR This is the CDR on sample number 31. We've taken
it out now and looked at it. And the sample's got
got quite a bit of body left in it, quite a bit of
strength. So it's not completely consumed at all.
And you can see how very slowly it was running.

CDR Now this looks like the very same. I don't quite
understand what the difference is between all
these different papers. Is there a different
distance between them?

CDR Valves are closed. REPRESS valve is CLOSED and

chamber's locked; POWER's coming ON. SAMPLE I.D.,
30 SECONDS. I guess I'ii d-urn- bum_ it up to 60
since this one's so short. We have a system,
READY. Lights are going out. Stand by-
 3985

037 03 04 51 CDR MARK. Glow, Just exactly the same; a yellow glow
• amd then sort of a pop as the paper takes - takes
fire. And then the yellow glow fades out, and we
end up with a blue glow around the paper, aSaln
standing up only about i/_ of an inch. The flame
_-,,edlately transferred to the other sheet.

CDR There was no delay in the flame Jumping over to

the other sheet.

CDR See the little sparks coming out there?

PLT Yes. _lmost looks like an extension there.

CDR Every once in a while you get those little - those

are Just - I am sure Just little particles cn_ng
off that are hot.

037 03 05 _9 CDR Okay, that's the end of the data take.

CDR This - this piece of paper is - or this sample is

acting exactly the same as the other one. It's
now split into two separate burning areas, one
above and one below. And I would presume that
as it gets a little further down, it will rejoin
again.

037 03 06 12 CDR l'm going to go ahead and quench it with the

vacuum so you can see how it glows up.

CDR You see as it -

PLT Weird.

CDR Very weird. Okay. Now I'ii hit the RESET. Give
you a few frames of what it looks like in the
light. And -

PLT How many more do you have to go?

CDR Five.

037 03 08 02 CDR Okay, I'm putting in sample number 33 now. I see

what the difference is. You're increasing the
gap on every sample. So far it's managed to JUmp
the gap =Im_st _--,ediately. Let's see what it
does on this one.
3986

037 03 08 19 CDR Okay, the VENTs are closed. The hatch is going
closed now. This is sample number 33. CHAMBER
REPRESS is CLOSED. POWER's ON_ SAMPLE I.D.,
60 SECONDS. I have a system READY light. Lights
are going out. And here we go with a start.

CDR Same sort of ignition; 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

037 03 08 53 CDR There it finally came across, about 8 seconds.

CDR Pretty much incomplete combustion though. It

really requires the oxygen and it's Just not
getting it, I guess. I don't know what those
flashes are. They - that sure doesn't ma_e a
whole lot of sense. I don't know what it is.
But we saw that flash on the last sample, and
we're seeing it on this. We're seeing a little
pulsation now. Again it's about 2 per second -
2 cycles per second, when it does pulsate.

037 03 09 40 CDR End of the data take.

CDR Yes, it must be a pretty hot flame because the -

the wire frame is glowing red hot on one side
there.

CDR Okay, I think we've given you enough data. Oh,

wait a minute. I wanted to show you what it
looked like.

037 03 I0 2h CDR Okay, now I want to quench it for you.

037 03 i0 33 CDR Beautiful blue flame, and it's out.

037 03 12 02 CDR I have a sample 34 now. It's also in excellent

condition. I see you're back to a closer distance
and you've got your ignitionwire through both
of thamthis time.

CDR Closing the hatch. This is sample number 34.

VENTs are closed, REPROS is CLOSED, the hatch is
closed. POWER's coming ON. SAMPLE I.D. Okay.
We have a systam, READY. Lights are going out.
 3987

037 03 12 51 CDR MARE. Okay. It's a little different kind of

ignition. _he ignition wire did all the glowing
and we never did get the bright, orange puff that
we got when the ignition wire was going in the
other direction. A little different way of ignit-
ing. We've settled down to the low- low, blue
glow though. It's already starting to pulsate.

CDR Same low, blue fire though. Only about 1/4 of an

inch at the most, 3/16 up from the paper; occa-
sional pulsing, 2 to 3 cycles per second, I
would say. Now I see a little faster, a little
more pulsation on this one; 3 pulses per second,
I would guess, or maybe even four. Okay, ccmes
the quench. That - that - that's the CHAMBEN
valve coming OPEN, that you see the first flash.
The second flash is when the bulkhead valve goes
OPEN. And that beautiful blue cloud that's
around it is really s_nething.

037 03 14 25 CDR Okay, data stop. l'm going to give you a few
frames of what this one looks like.

037 03 14 32 CDR CLOSE the VENT valves, OPEN the REPRESS. Be back
in a minute.

037 03 15 57 CDR Okay, sample number 35 in M479 is in the oven.

The VENTs are closed, the hatch is closed, the
REPRESS valve is CLOSED, POWER is ON. SAMPLE I.D.
System is READY. Lights are going out. And the -

037 03 16 14 CDR MARK. Okay, same thing. The same sort of igni-
tion on this one as on the last one. Not much
glow from the paper, mostly from the igniter, and
then the blue light starts. So far l'm hard
pressed to see much difference between the two. I
can see the blue frame crossing between the two
or bridging the gap between the two.

037 03 16 44 CDR Now we got our pulsation. It seems to be a slower

pulsation with the - with the wider gap. Now the -
the pulsation on a single piece of paper is about
the same, i or 2 per second. But the pulsation
between the papers is much slower; I would say,
a second apart. Now we have no pulsation at the
moment; everything is - is smooth and we Just had
the data light.
 3988

CDR Okay, I am going to quench. I also don't want to

run out of film before I finish this thing, because
I don't have time to hook up another film. We're
on our third load of DAC film now; second C_lie
X-ray, and the first would be Romeo.

037 03 17 37 CDR There's the quench. Now that was not quite as
much blue to that one. There was more orange
with a blue center. That was very striking looking.

CDR I got a hunch we're not going to have enough f_]m

to finish the Job here. Two s--T_les left and

rather interesting little thing here. All right,
the POWER's ON; we got a SAMPLE I.D., the VENTs are
closed; REPRESS is CLOSED. We have a system,

I see a bubble of gray smoke formed up and I see
some - some orange flare. And now I don't see
anything. It's gone out, I do believe. No, I
see some blue glow. I really have to shade my
eyes. I think we got enough film to give you
your 60 seconds. I think it - it's gone out.
Now, it 's glowing - it 's glowing. But it most
certainly hasn't transferred to the other one
yet, as best I can tell. Okay, that was quite a
flash. And that wasn't the data flash, I don't
think. No, it wasn't; another flash.

037 03 20 58 CDR Now it finally got through. Finally m-de it

through. There's• your data flash. That was very
interesting. Okay, if you want any more data,
we're going to have to quit here. There's what

left. Oh, boy, 5 percent. We really shot our
wad on that one. Okay.

going on. Stand by -

Okay, bright glow from the - the filament_ now a
low orange glow from the paper. I don't see much
of anything, but I do see the reflection of a
glow out the other side of the paper.

037 03 2_ 00 CDR I have an end of film light, so that's the end of

film. I'll Just give you a verbal description

037 03 25 20 CDR Okay, I - I'm sorry we couldn't do a little bit

more - a little slower Job of getting your data
for you here at the end. But I figured that
even rapid data like this is better than no data
at all, and at least you're getting filmed data,
And - I looked at your samples. I knew they'd be
interesting to you and I - so I felt that I Just
had to get tMis stuff done, and I did the whole
thing in about 26 m_uutes. Really cut you short,
I think. But, I think it's - it's a good thing
that I did do it even if I did have to abbreviate
it.

CDR Okay this is the CDR terminating M_79 operations.

And we finished all samples now. And I hope
that the little data we got here at the end will
fill in your - your picture pretty well.

sometimes because of low light level. I got
some more of the Sierra Madre Occidental. I got
a lot of Just pan shots of the western U.S., low
Sun angle stuff. Then I got more of the Mexican
coast, Central America; I missed the volcano
area, but I got one good 300 millimeter of the -
of a volcano, and that was a Charlie X-ray 63.
And it was about frame 2, I think - i or 2, in
that one.

some - That was a Charlie X-ray 63. Charlie
X-ray 63 is now reading six frames, so I took

South Georgia Island. This is a - a fairly active
current with a considerable blooming associated
with it. Now I rec - I reported this yesterday
as a north-south; and I think that's not right.
There are so many eddies and everything associated
with it, but the current appears to be a general
east-west trending current. However, there is a
very strong loop or eddy that was to the west of
South Georgia Island and it was in a - it was
Just - ran in a general northwest-southeasterly
direction. I have taken a series of photographs
in Charlie X-ray 63 magazine. In fact, I took
i0 through 22 and there are two large ice islands
io - located near South Georgia plus numerous very
small icebergs to the - to the south and to the
east of South Georgia Island. Now I took two
photographs with the 300-millimeter lens. They 're -
all the rest of them were with the 55, to try to
cover the area and to try to record the color of
this current. It was Forel 7 to 8 in general,

But this was very impressive. It was as impressive

as the first time I saw the Falkland Current. So
this is - There's an awful lot of pl_n_ton blooming,
apparently, associated with this current, which
rims generally to the north of South Georgia llAamd.
But there is one loop of it that goes down to the
south, and it's because there's probably a side
there -you know, maybe a secondary circulation
of some kind.

039 ll 02 53 SPY Okay_ got that loaded, and you can set the DET
counting up. Shaping burn. 16:56:55. And
now - -

CDR Okay, we're burning down to a 233 by 97.

SPY Okay, we're c_ng up to a- say, we're 29 minutes

m_ay from the burn. That should be reading 31.

PLT And that ought to about do it.

SPY Well, you might want to take - The further out it

gets, you may want to click one Just for the heck
of it. That was your purpose - aim one way off
in the distsmce.

f-.

PLT Sure is dark against the blackness of space,

isn't it?

CDR Yes.

039 ii 04 01 PLT Get rid of s_ne of my stuff here before the burn.
And put the Hasselblad back in here. I may be
taking some pictures after the burn, but one-g is
going to be a real shocker. Oh, about 0.8, 8/i0,
I guess it is.

CDR Well, making stab number 2 at the DET.

PLT (Laughter)

SPT Well, Jer, you haven't had any simulator time on

the DETs.

CDR Timex's revenge; 1/2 second behind.

SPT Good form. I'll count you down.

039 ll 05 18 CDR Don't count me down. Let me whip it my own way.

SPT Okay, the things you got coming up, Jer, are a
VERB 49 to the maneuver - to the - to the proper
attitude and then the P52.

CDR Okay. Okay, we're starting to fall below it now.

Barely starting to drift down onto it.

039 ll 05 57 CDR There; I got it that time.

039 ll 05 58 SPT That a boy. Okay. Got the DET. Now go to P00.
Okay, now you want a VERB 49 ENTER; Then maneuver
to the shaping burn pad - attitude.

CDR Ah, let's stay here and watch this bird for a
little while.

SPT Okay.

CDR We're going at what time?

039 ll 06 22 SPT 56.

CDR 27-1/2 - 26-1/2 minutes from now.

CDR Okay. I think I know what I'm going to do.

f-
_008

CDR Well, I'm going to watch the bird a little while

here. It won't hurt.

SPT Very uncomfortable to see out this window though.

No wonder I couldn't see it during the docking.

CDR Just as well, Ed. It would have frightened you.

SPT That's right. I was scared Just watching the

beads of sweat on your forehead, watching you use
the big ... out of the hand controller.

CDR There it goes! Fading into the sunset.

SPT l'd like to see a command on high rate X roll or

sumething. That would be something. Hey, l'm
not sure we ever got any really good pictures of
the boom which we extended on our flyaround
trajectory.

CDR The boom extended?

SPT Yes.

CDR Oh.

SPT The one we extended during EVA.

039 ii 07 37 CDR Well, they should be in there.

PLT Did you bring it back in?

SPT No. You're supposed to leave it out there.

You're supposed to extend them out. The idea was
to get pictures of it during flyaround.

PLT Watch m_ timeline, there, I didn't even realize

that. I got about 75 pictures so -

CDR Ah, that's good, Bill. We ought to get a few

really good ones in there.

039 ii 08 0_ PLT The trouble is, this window has got a spot in it.
I kept trying to move it around so that the -
it was stopped downto f/8, which is a fairly
narrow aperture, so I kept trying to move it
around - -
 h.O09

f-.

CDR Uh-huh.

PLT - - so I wouldn't get a spot of the window in

it.

039 ll 08 51 PLT We're doing pretty well. We're carrying 55 saps

load.

CDR Very good,

PLT It's fairly good - I mean, it's fairly n_m_nal.

Normally you carry a lot more th_n _chat. I -
you can go up to 90. I think the reason is
because the voltage - These detent bats hold a
high voltage.

CDR Yes.

PLT Yes, I thought it was probably about the same.

039 ll 09 56 PLT Well, I don't know about you, but I'm sort of
looking forward to this burn.

CDR It ol,g_t to be a ring-dang-dooser.

SPT Better keep yourself latched back against that

seat because it is going to move you there - -

PLT Man, I'm all *** eyeballs here, ready to go.

039 ll l0 15 CDR Okay, I guess we can start the maneuver now. The
bird's getting kind of far away.

SPT Yes. Before we come down. Before that second

burn, we ought to move all of this stuff to the
floor, because when we hit, it's only going to
really move down there rapidly. They might break;
have the - the urine bags break and then go
stable II°

CDR Okay, here we go into the burn attitude. The

pitch of around 70 degrees or so.

SPT Okay.

CDR Okay -

0B9 ll ll 02 CDR MARK.

_010

SPT Which way is it going? I can't see the bird

really anymore. Is it appearing on the bottom of
your window?

CDR No, it's coming up across the top. You ought to

be seeing it in a minute.

CDR No, it's going to disappear out the bottom. We

got a yaw and a roll going both.

SPT I see.

PLT You got a ... once more, Jer, before loading.

SPT Okay.

PLT Right in the bottom.

SPT Yes. Sure has been a heck of an adventure. It's

tough to top that one.

PLT Yes, that's right. In same respects, it's almost

incredible.

SPT Yes, you don't realize what you're doing if you're

chugging away at it day to day. Okay, Jer, where
do we stand? You're doing a VERB _9 for the
shaping burn?

039 ii 12 21 CDR Right.

SPT And watch for a possible gimbal lock. And then

when we get through we go P52 and we Just look
for the stars. And you set your tb,-,bwheel, prepare
it for an attitude flight.

CDR Okay.

SPT And that is 359. 189. Can't see th_ crank there.
What have we got hanging there?

039 Ii 13 07 CDR Look at that window.

SPT Oh, yes.

CDR Contsmination on there.

PLT Farewell. _

SPT Okay, let's see; - you can also put your delta-V C
in right now, if you want, at 264.0.

CDR l've got a 1586.8 to do first.

PLT ...

SPY Wonder what this - this thing is in our audio

system? Because I was on the intercom and it
wasn't that bad.

PLT I don't know. It may be - you may be right. It

may be complete - it msy be related to the thing
that we had in the workshop.

SPT You know the other one we could kill with the
buffer stop circuit breaker in the workshop
though. Don't quite see how that would work.

CDR ASS right, what's the delta-Vc?

039 ii lh 28 SPT Delta-V C you're looking at is 260.0.

039 ii 14 36 SPT Burn time, Bill, is 12 seconds.

like when we first got off the booster?

PLT Yes.

SPY (Laughter) Is that what it's going to feel like

now_

PLT I'm going to thrust myself bodily back against

this tissue dispenser that I got in my head
cushion.

SPY Yes, I think i'm going to do that too.

PLT You not going have time on the burn. Oks_?

CDR Oh! Remember the words, Bill. We need to know

how much time is left in order to go into a short
burn logic.

PLT But I tell you how much we've burned, right?

039 Ii 15 52 CDR Okay, that's fine. Just tell me whatever it is

you're going to tell be and so I'Ii know what it
is. I don't really care whether you tell me how
much is left or what we've burned.
 _013

PLT I'ii tell you - -

SPT Why don't you Just ss_ what - how long we've
burned, and that way both Jer and I can work it.

PLT Yes, that's the easiest way.

automatically. Now let's see, I guess that's mine
there. And you want anything else to eat, Jer?

CDR They sure do. But I'm using DIRECT.

SPT Okay. Now you want to go back over that

configuration?

CDR All right. How about the bank, reverse bank

time?

SPT Okay, Just a minute.

CDR RET RB.

SPT That 's at 32:37 •

 40_9

039 14 52 22 CDR All right. So 31:37 is my cut point. Okay,

now, are we Just waiting for 0.05g now?

SPT That's affirm.

PLT That's affirm; it's about i0 minutes off.

CDR Very good. 32 - -

PLT Man, I saw you working that hand controller

and nothing happening; m_ heart really s1_nk,
I tell you.

CDR (Laughter)

SPT So did mine.

CDR I'm not sure I understand.

PLT We Just got rid of our service module.

0B9 14 53 00 CDR Auto coils. We are in SCS; and l'm in MIN

IMPULSE - in mannit - MIN IMPULSE.

_- SPT Now linkedwith that is we also did not get an

automatic transfer over.

CDR Right. Do - would you make note then that we

did not - we do not have PITCH and YAW. MIN
IMPULSE is - we have only DIRECT.

SPT Okay. No auto X-fer.

CDR Okay, as we're going down, keep an eye on

your - your gages, too, .guys.

SPT No MIN IMPUI_E and no - would - had you lost

anything else? RATE COMMAND?

CDR No - well, I haven't tried RATE COMMAND.

0B9 14 53 46 PLT Carrying about a 55-amp-load; batteries are

looking good.

CDR I don't have RATE COMMAND either. Either in

PITCH or YAW. See if I have it in ROLL. Yes,
I've got it in ROLL. Now RCS COMMAND - no.
_050

PLT You do have thePITCH and YAW entry attitude,

right, Jer?

CDR Yes.

PLT Good.

CDR I'm using the DIRECTs to get it.

059 14 5_ 14 PLT But if youlose them, you can start rolling

and get gyro stabilized. Well, that makes for
a little excitement during entry.

CDR Yes.

SPT Let's see here. Let's Just see what the heck
if we could have procedurally done something
here.

CDR I can't imagine what it is.

PLT I can't imagine what you could have done

procedurally not to get the transfer and also
to lose two - -

SPT Two out of three.

PLT - - two out of three.

CDR Yes. We didn't get - we did get into SCS and

that was a procedural bungle on our part.

059 14 54 _9 PLT But that had - -

CDR And that doesn't have anything to do with it.

PLT I don't think that it does either.

CDR The RCS DAP was banging aw_ there trying

to help me. But it's - you know - that's a big
sloppy thing.

PLT Yes, it sure is. Well, you can get it back to

CMC and see if it takes it and starts flying our
roll commands and then you'll be in business.
 4051

039 14 55 ii CDR Yes, if it doesn't, I'll Just have to go back

to SCS and fly beta as it comes up on the G&N.

SPT Oksj,, let me - let me read that now. If G&N is

GO/NO GO, fly EMS. Go to pad backup angle at -
that's if the E - G&N is NO GO.

CDR Yes.

SPT Now if you're saying the DAP is NO GO?

CDR If the DAP is NO GO. That's - -

039 14 55 28 SPT Okay, Just fly beta; you're right. Just make
sure it's following those roll commands.

CDR 27: 26.

PLT Affirm. 5-1/2 minutes, roughly.

SPT Got everything glued down there?

039 14 55 57 PLT Yes. Stayed glued on the burns so I was - I'm

sure that 2g's is going to keep it well glued
down, 2-1/2. How about giving us a periodic
readout on a g-meter, Jerry, Just for therapy.

CDR Okay, if I can get m_ eyeballs caged enough

to look.

PLT Man, that's really fantastic how those things

fire.

PLT Well, the command module has been sitting

there for 3 months.

039 14 56 41 CDR Isn't that funny that it's all the command
module, too. The service module looked - Just
was flawless.

PLT Those pyros are really dramatic, aren't they?

CDR They sure are. There's no doubt when they go off.

SPT When that - when that goes, you know it.

_052

SPT P63.

CDR Okay, 6 minutes and 26 seconds.

SPT Looking at P63. G, VI and range to go.

PLT Let's see now, did you want to do a horizon

check? Or is that cnm_ng up?

SPT It's coming up at 0.05g minus i.

039 lh 57 21 CDR I'll start doing her down a little more. The
thing is that I can't turn that r_scal off.
Isn't that helpful?

039 14 57 30 SPT I can see the horizon out there, Jer. Looks
pretty good.

PLT Man, I can't get my head up high enough hardly

to see it. Okay, and I'm down in the seat pan,
so there's not much I can do about it.

SPT And we got the right attitude because I 'm

watching where we going. Watching where we're
coming from.

CDR I see a horizon up there. Nice easy horizon.

It's my kind of horizon.

SPT Now is that the airglow or is that the horizon?

CDR The airglow is up above it; you can see that.

SPT Yes, okay. I Just - -

CDR It's sort of an orange.

SPT - - wanted to -_e sure you're working with

039 14 58 28 CDR Oh, yes, we're making it. I can even put some
floods on and see the horizon.
 _053

SPT Okay, good.

CDR This _S is ridiculous. Wonder why the lighting

in the EMS wasn't hooked up to the numerics
or something - -

SPT Okay, let's go here, Bill. At 21:26, we want

to do these things. Now - -

PIT You through, Jer?

CDR No, I'm not through, but go ahead. I can see

he holding a lift vector up to 0.2. And at
0.05g, you want to -_e sure you get the EMS
MODE to BACKUP/VHF RANGE.

SPT That sure lights things up.

PLT Sure does. You know that one g, the way that
one g plnned me hack in the couch, I bet this
2.5g entry is going to he something else.

SPT Yes, you're going to feel it. You pumped up?

PLT/CDR Yes.

SPT Okay, let's go back to ring 1. Ring 1 is looking

good.

CDR How is 2 looking?

 _055

SPT Now ring 2 is bled down about that far. Now

what that could mean is Just one side has gone
out, which is why I think they was t=lking that
way.

CDR Yes. Has it stopped there?

039 15 00 58 SPT Well, it's - it's s_,-,.ereddown - it's pretty

much - A long time ago when we looked at it,
maybe 15 minutes ago, it was 24 - 26, and then
very shortly 24. Now it's come down to
2000 and just kind of holding. And apparently
at propellant depletion that's pretty _ch
what you get - or close to propellant depletion.

036 01 57 06 CDR DATA off. Your quench system, it Just stinks.

That's a shame. Okay. Ok_, I'm du,T.Ing the
canister. Water's boiling like _ad in there.
Now, you can see that the water did 6o a good
Job of quenching the paper. But we did get a flash
at first, and it did brighten up. The fire tur_ed
from blue to whites and yellows, and - and then
it did quench and go out.

036 01 58 00 CDR Okay, this is the CDR going off the line. Sample
r,,mher 24 is next.

036 01 59 20 CDR Okay, this is the CDR. I now have s_ple 23 out
in _ hand, and the water very definitely did
arrest the fire. Stopped it cold. We have a
lot of - we have about 30 percent white paper
left, and it's all burned around the edges. And
it's very wet. So I guess the quench system did
work okay this time with me yanking on it. But
it's too bad that lower nozzle doesn't work. Oks_,
l've got to clean off the camera for it again.
This is something that has to be done every time.

036 01 59 53 CDR CDR out.

036 02 i_ 32 CDR Okay. This is the CDR. The time is 02:1_ Zulu,
and I took time out to go talk to my family.
We're now starting on specimen number 24, which
is the - the cloth; which I don't feel too terribly
warm about any more, except the doggone stuff puts
itself out. Although I guess I should feel warm;
that's kind of - the kind of stuff I'd llke to
have flight suits mad e out of Just a little
burn, and then puts itself out.

CDR Okay, I've got it inserted. The port is cleaned

off. The valves are all closed, l'm closing
the hatch now. See if the REPRESS valve is closed.
We're going to POWER, ON. Here come the SAMPLE
I.D. i0 seconds. System is ready. We're d_-,_ng
the houselights. Okay. Now, I must be quick
with this one. Stand by -

036 02 15 39 CDR MARK. There's the start. Quench is on. Hey,

that put it out right now. Okay. That was pretty
good. Now what I did - I didn't wait for two-
thirds to go because I knew darned good and well
that two-thirds of it wasn't going to burn. So,
3966
/--x

Just as soon as it got started, you will see in

your - in your film, I hit it with water. And
the water Just flat put it out _mmediately. In
fact, there's a great big bubble of water Just
sitting right on the fire area. So it must of -
I got a direct hit with the nozzle, and it put
it out.

036 02 16 22 CDR The fire to me looked the same as it did in the

other cases. So, there's nothing wrong there.
The sample itself was in excellent condition when
I put it in the - the wires, and then the ceramic
was not cracked on this one. It's in good shape.
In fact, it's still in perfect shape. No, I beg
your pardon, the ignition wire broke. Ignition
wire is torn loose at one end. Okay. So that's
it for sample number 24. And, I guess that must
be the end of it for the - for the quench system,
I hope. POWER is OFF. And now let's move on
to the others.
