209 14 12 36 CDR Okay, we got some news for you. We've worked on
that optics. And we kind of got the feeling that
maybe we hadn't zeroed it well enough and -
although we'd done it a couple of times - because
we went back, zeroed it again, and drove it
manually both in RESOLVE and DIRECT, and it worked
perfectly. So scratch that up as a mystery at

210 19 19 32 PLT Yes, Bruce, we were down there resting and got
a MASTER ALARM. Turned out to be a MAIN A
undervolt. And came up here and looked at it in
the command module. And noticed that MAIN A was
down around 25 volts for a little while and the
fuel cell was putting out a lot of current. And
then it went down and went back to normal. And
then it made a couple more spikes, very intermit-
tently, a couple of times. And I kind of suspected
the heaters, although I don't know for sure.

210 20 33 24 SPT Also, after filling the bags this full I found
that only five of these half-sample bags could
be fitted into tray number i - and I didn't look
it up in the Biomed Checklist, but CAP COMM re-
minded me that these hAlf-samples from the first r_
day do go in tray 1. And so they're filed and
they're stored and they're freezing right now,
but it's a good thing there were only five, be-
cause I would have never made that sixth sample
into that tray. I presume that's what you were
expecting, but - Oh, well, let me correct that.
I presume that's not what you were expecting. You
were expecting all six to go in there. And maybe
I Just had them a little bit fuller than normal.
But, anyway, those are stored in there now, and
we did activate the urine system by wake-up time
on mission day 2, here. And so we are filling the
urine bags in the nor-_l manner without the bags
having to have been brought down from the cnm-_nd
module here on day 2.

211 21 43 52 SPT Okay, that completes all of the data, and it looks
like - for Bill Thornton, there, you've got a
mass measurement which exceeds the mass of any of
our crew. I think 6.26 is higher than Jack;
I'll check again in a minute. And the data all
looks pretty good to me, in terms of consistency.
We'd like back any comments from you, Bill,
about whether or not you're satisfied with the
data and whether or not there was any
significant change from mission i. As a matter
of fact, if there is no change, perhaps that will
mean that we can get away with either no - I'm
not sure what the number of times was, but I
thought you mentioned preflight that we
might be able to skip one if the data were
showing essentially no change from mission i. So
any comments on that would be appreciated, Bill.
This is the end of the information on M172 cal,
and it goes to the biomed people and M172 PIs.
211 21 45 39 SPT Just a comment for Bill Thornton from the SPT
again here. In checking back on Jack's weight,
I see that the final mass was almost exactly his
weight, so you ought to have a good handle on it.

few beats per minute higher than my ground-based
numbers; but all in all, they are pretty close.
And I think the extra increment there could be
accounted for on the basis of the extra work I
had to do, in upper torso, grasping the handle-
bars, because there was some extra work, I could
feel involved and, also, the reduced mechanical
efflcfeny from working in a rather new environ-
ment of zero g. So as far as the - the numbers
are concerned relative to conditioning, it looks

21_ 22 17 27 SPT The SPT on cbanuel A with a question for the M092 PI,
Dr. Robert Johnson. It is a question about the
legbands. One of them has, apparently, malfunctioned.
I tried to use legband BJ, a 14/15 size on Alan Bean
this afternoon. And when it came time to calibrate
at the HIGH level, since it was on his left leg,
you actually do it by first depressing CAL LOW,
and then adjusting the GAIN to 3.2. It would not
adjust at all. The zero set - or the NULL did
balance correctly, hut the upper test point would
not adjust at all on this particular leg - legband.
So I assume that there is a lead or something
broken, and I would llke to know whether or not it
can simply be discarded or if there is anything
else that needs to be done with it. If you can
send up a short teleprinter message in response
to that, I would appreciate it.

216 18 30 ii SPT This is the SPT with a couple of comments and addi-
tions for the ETC S190B people associated with
EREP, reference to the operation of the ETC camera.
First of all, most of the run today as taken at
five frames per minute, which will be 12 seconds
per exposure. In actuality, the camera was taking
frames at 13-second intervals. In other words,
it took 65 seconds instead of 60 for five frames
to be taken. You might want to take that into
account in sending your pad numbers for the set-
ting on frames per minute. And the next thing
was something we noted in real time, but that is
an interruptionof power after the data - taking
has been complete. The camera has been returned
to STANDBY and a little while thereafter, the
power of the camera Just quit turning - grinding
away - all those standard noises that it makes.
And then the power to the inverter or the power
from the inverter has been interrupted. And then
a couple of minutes later, the power came back
on and then one more time - maybe 5 minutes
later - same thing happened and the camera opera-
tion was curtailed for another couple of minutes
until it came back on. So I have no explanation
for this. We don't know whether it's the space-
craft systems or perhaps the camera inverter
system, but wanted to bring it again to your
attention so you can be thinking about it.
216 18 _7 _5 CDR Okay, CDR with a message for the EGIL and it

216 18 48 43 CDR This is the CDR and a correction for the message
to the EGIL. Since the black bladder is all the
way down to the full end, then you - I guess you
would have to say that it is completely full. In
other words, I can see water in the translucent
spot, where there isn't a bladder, and then where
I see the bladder through the translucent area,
I noticed that it completely covers that part of
the end. So I guess the feeling is then now, my
feeling would be that it is completely full.

SPT. Everything worked Just dandy. The only
thing that was different was the isolation was
zero after the run - same old story. And I've
copied down all the data on a card. If for some
reason, this data doesn't get through, we've got
it off the card and I can read it down.

217 00 07 09 SPT Okay, this is the SPT on cha=nel A with the report
on the PLT's run of M131-1. The OGI stuff should
all be on the experiment 1 tape recorder, and I
hope you get it all this time .... from the card
for a day or two, however, Just in case. One
comment, Jack noted this time and I noted on my
run a couple of days ago, and that is you get
awful sleepy underneath that set of goggles, and
you really tend to almost doze off. Jack had to
give a no response to a couple of answers today,
simply because he had forgotten that a response
was due, didn't know that I had tapped him. And
I remember having done the same thing on my run.
So Just staying awake is something of a problem
at - essentially Just sitting still with the
blindfold on. And then on the rotating chair
motion sensitivity test, even after being reminded
from the ground, I was late getting the experiment i
tape recorder turned on. However, you got lots of
good data, at any rate, because Jack went 150 head
movements at 20 rpmwith no symptoms. Let's see -
Okay, so Just talking about it, we've been thinking
of the possibility that all of our desensitization
/-- done in the trainer back in Houston, may have very
nicely desensitized us for vestibular - ... by
rotating - a rapid rotation and head motion that
wouldn't have much to do, necessarily, with zero-g
effects. So, I guess - -

It's about half covered with ice, little ice
crystals and Jack and I were just talking about
it. It looks like the ice forms principally -
in fact, it does form principally in the center
one-half area and the outer half area remains
without ice crystals. We presume due to the
greater conductivity due to the valve on the

218 17 40 56 CDR Pass the two rod stowage plates to EV-1, female
"_ endfirst.
3e8
218 17 41 l0 CDR Okay, work on them in there. It's lot easier when
both of you can work. That's good.
218 17 hi 32 PLT-EVA Okay, now there's the other one. I - The thing is
tethered to the spacecraft good, 0., so let me
hook up to it.
PLT-EVA Okay, if you'll Just pull them back and put them
wherever you want to, I'll u_dhook it from the
sp ace c raft.
218 17 42 03 SPT-EVA May have to unhook it. It turns out I may have -
PLT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA (Laughter).
SPT-EVA Okay?
218 17 43 36 CDR Okay, let me read this thing to you again. Pass
the two rod stowage plates to EV-1, female end
first.
218 17 43 45 CDR Stow rod stowage plates under F-4 handrail, _-le
end toward the ATM. Then attach female end
tether to F-5 handrail.
218 17 43 59 CDR I like his attitude. There's the good Earth down
there, gang.
218 17 4h ll CDR Does it look like the EVA lights are on out there,
0.?
CDR Okay.
PLT-EVA Far forward as I can get them now. Can you get the
tether hooked? O., let me have that tether. I
think I can hook it up.
218 17 45 07 CDR Okay, maybe Jack can look out and see if he thinks
the EVA lights - -
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 17 h5 21 PLT-EVA Ahh, EVA lights, huh? Well, I see one out there,
but I can'ttell whetherit's on. _
CDR Okay.
SPT-EVA The one I see did not look on, but it's - maybe
it's Just too bright.
218 17 45 30 CDR All right, we'll find out what happens. They may
get us over Vanguard and we'll ask them. Okay.
You ready for the next one?
PLT-EVA Go.
218 17 h5 36 CDR Okay, pass sail bag to EV-I. And, EV-I, hook sail
bag to F-7 handrail, which is near the VC tree
receptacle.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 17 46 43 CDR Let me see if I can see you all, any possible way.
I don't think there's any way I can see you.
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 17 47 14 CDR The sail bag is next; you did it. Next comes:
Pass base plate to EV-1. Attach base plate to
clothesline clip - there's the tricky one - on
the F-6 handrail by use of the base plate tether.
You copy, EV-l?
SPT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
CDR That's the one that you got to hook through the
wi re.
2/8 17 47 50 CDR Yes. You put your tether on - and - on the thing,
then take that one off. He puts his tether on it;
you take your tether off and he hooks it on; then
he takes his tether off.
218 17 h8 28 PLT-EVA I just to want to make sure this little loop he's
got is satisfactory for the place he's going to
putit.
218 17 h8 40 CC Skylab, we're reading you loud and clear over the
Vanguard for 9 minutes.
CDR Well, they've taken out the two poles so far; they
took out the sail bag; they're in the midst of
taking out the ... plates.
PLT-EVA Hey, 0. ?
CC Copy, A1.
218 17 49 29 CDR May I read you what's next? Whenever you're ready.
PLT-EVA Speak.
CC Stand by i.
PLT-EVA Attaboy.
F
314 --"
PLT-EVA Okay, I'm u-hitched from it. You put that there,
and I go get the green one. That's way back in
the corner here.
CDR Okay.
CDR Excellent.
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA 0keydoke.
PLT-EVA O., we've got her - locked. Not going to work out
_ right, 0.
218 17 54 40 CDR Red one first. He puts on the red one, and then
the green one, and then the green one ends up
closest to him.
PLT-EVA That's not going to work for me. You know the
problem? •
CDR What?
SPT-EVAWell,let'ssee- -
CDR Okay.
218 17 55 h3 PLT-EVA Let's - you tether to that one and then I'll give
you this one.
SPT-EVA Um-hmm.
218 17 56 06 PLT-EVA It makes it hard to get the things on, too, because
you got to get them - squash them against the -
... the way of getting it on the hook.
CC CDR, Houston.
CDR Go ahead.
PLT-EVA ...
PLT-EVA Yes.
CC Thank you.
SPT-EVA Is it locked?
218 17 57 45 PLT-EVA The open part is facing down toward the fabric
around the FAS instead of up toward the hatch.
Okay, here we are, A1. We're sitting here with
the green one on top and the red one on the
bottom.
318
218 17 58 00 PLT-EVA Got it - the hook is locked, and the ropes are
pointing out forward, so they are going to be
easily visible when he picks them up.
SPT-EVA Okay.
CDR Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Ccmplete.
CDR 0.001.
CDR 0kay.
218 18 01 20 PLT-EVA Okay, I'm going to have to doodle with this for
f- a minute.
218 18 01 39 PLT-EVA 60.
218 18 02 47 PLT-EVA 60. Make one little note of something. We, some-
how, got slipped up on here. It's not hurting
yet, but I think we ought to correct it on the
way out.
CDR What?
PLT-EVA Now down here on the male end, you remember there
are two little dog leash clips that were clipped
together with a single long wrist tether? Somehow
that wrist tether is in the red position; it's
not green. And one of the dog leashes has come -
have come loose. Now there's a - the wrist _-
tether is still attached to the other of the two
rod sections, but we'd ought to hook it back up
properly as we go out.
PLT-EVA Six inches from the end of the - Let me get it.
PLT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA ...
CDR FOCUS, 15 •
CDR Okay.
218 18 05 31 PLT-EVA Well, I had a good picture of the ATM there for
a while and I - Let's don't - pull in; I'll tell
you when it's good, O. Push it back where it was.
PLT-EVA There it comes. No, you - you had it. Just open
it a smidgen.
/
CDR Okay.
CDR Okay.
i 218 18 07 ll PLT-EVA That looks good. Why don't you mess with the
focus a little bit?
218 18 07 14 CDR Why don't we get on with it, too? You mess with
the focus - -
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 18 08 l0 CDR Exit the AM, EV-2, and retrieve the long tether on
the male end of the rod stowage plate and fasten
to F-1 handrail.
PLT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Huh?
SPT-EVA See that dog clip that's come loose? The other
end of the tether you've got should have had both
of those rods connected to it - bundles. It's
only connected to one of the rod bundles. The
dog leash is loose on the end by your left elbow.
SPT-EVA Hey, you got that little rascal. Now put your - -
PLT-EVA Huh?
CDR Okay. That 's the F-10, not F-1. Under F-1, fasten
to F-10.
PLT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay, watch and make sure I go the right way here,
O.
218 18 i0 50 CDR And when he gets there, 0., you're going to trans-
fer the foot restraints with the SUN END BOOM.
218 18 i0 59 PLT-EVA Okay, I'm passing the dog bone, up to the handrail.
And I 'ii get m_self turned around here, 0.
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 18 ll 58 SPT-EVA Oh, I don't think so for the moment. Maybe later.
218 18 12 01 CDR Transfer foot restraints to EV-2 with SUN END BOOM.
,_ Remove and install the foot restraints at the
double handrail work station. Verify, Jack, that
328 _-_
SPT-EVA ...
CDR There you go. Good handling, Jack. Like when you
played football for Michigan. Lighting looks good
out there. Real pretty.
218 18 14 37 SPT-EVA Okay. I'll give you a11 the rope you need. Have
same more.
218 18 l_ 51 PLT-EVA Okay, I looked under there; the ... cllp wedge is
firmly seated.
218 18 14 56 CDR Okay, gang, get in the old foot restraints. And,
Owen, clamp the umbilical.
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Okay.
CDR Good idea. Are you ready for the next one?
218 18 15 33 CDR All right. May I give you the ...? Transfer -
wait a minute - EMU status checks. Check the PCU _
warning lights and SUIT PRESS, both of you.
218 18 16 05 PLT-EVA I'm tethering before you run the boom out, O.
218 18 16 40 CDR Transfer rod base plate to EV-2 with SUN END BOOM.
/-- PLT-EVA Go ahead and leave the darn tether there, then.
332
218 18 17 19 CDR Clamp - clamp the base plate to - clamp the hook
to the base plate good and then tether it there,
too.
218 18 17 29 PLT-EVA They'll just get in the way and flop around. Hang
your arms up and stuff.
218 18 17 56 SPT-EVA Okay. Now there's nothing that I can attach that
tether to that will - be of any help in holding
it on.
218 18 18 01 CDR Okay. So maybe, then, leave the tether where you
are.
218 18 18 16 SPT-EVA If that should come loose from this thing, then
the end of that knob will never go through that
hole.
PLT-EVA That - -
CDR Okay.
218 18 18 58 SPT-EVA Okay. You ready for the big fling? _-_
333
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 18 19 45 CDR It's around your back already. It's over your
left shoulder behind your - -
SPT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA I agree.
PLT-EVA Whoa.
218 18 20 15 PLT-EVA Now I'll find me a good place to hook this thing.
Good place is in the tether ring.
218 18 20 39 CDR Now he can lean back. That's what was happening;
he was trying to lean back and it hit him. Yes,
it looks like you've got excessive, but it looks p_
like that's what it's going to take.
CDR Okay.
218 18 21 03 PLT-EVA Lock that lock, squeeze the ..., and out she comes.
SPT-EVA You see how that could never come off, don't you,
Jack ?
SPT-EVA Okay.
CDR Okay.
218 18 21 52 CDR Okay, Owen, while you're waiting, let me tell you
what to do. While you're waiting, you can take
and - Okay, attach sail bag hook to base of boo_ _-_
hook and transfer to EV-2.
33.5
CDR Yes!
218 18 22 45 CDR I Just read it, though. That's how you're going
to get the sail bag down there, I guess. But maybe
there's another way, 0. All I can guess is, that's
the only thing that can hook to it. You Just - -
CDR And you Just have to be careful that you don't pull
off the - the - the hook itself, because the
boom hooks come off. Looks like it needs to be
pulled towards you, Jack, that knob, and then
tightened. That's getting it; that's good. You
might want to tighten the other a little.
218 18 2h 01 CDR Tighten them down real tight and then put in the
clips - tight as possible. Maybe not tight as
possible ; they might break.
218 18 2_ 12 CDR Yes, and then you got those old clips.
218 18 24 15 PLT-EVA Yes, that was ... as ... Hook this right here.
That one's hooked.
CDR Perfect.
CDR Okay.
218 18 24 46 PLT-EVA Tightened down, and I get the hook in here ...
That one's done. Now I'm going to untether myself.
CDR Okay.
218 18 25 58 PLT-EVA Okay, hold her, O. Attaboy. You're all right with
that boom, you know that?
P_ 337
CDR Okay.
q
218 18 27 41 CDR Okay, Jack, you're in the pole business. Here you
are, Owen.
218 18 28 05 PLT-EVA Yes, why don't you take it in a little bit now.
I got it around my back and under my right arm
the way I want it.
218 18 28 12 PLT-EVA That way, when I make the pole, I can put it down
here without having to go underneath the tether
and all that.
218 18 28 29 SPT-EVA Now is that - Tell me what length you like, Jack.
More or less or what?
CDR Yes.
_-_ 339
218 18 29 09 PLT-EVA The pole did not extend Ali the way.
CDR Okay.
218 18 30 27 CDR You going to have to use the poles to pass that
down, do you suppose, or what? Or is it Just
going to come down because it's soft cloth.
218 18 30 37 SPT-EVA Well, I'll tell you; don't lock the grommet right
there. I'll tell you why. Grommets slide along
this platform.
218 18 31 09 PLT-EVA Now the big thing, 0., is to keep that line so
that it doesn't get twisted around the pole.
218 18 31 14 CDR I'll tell you what you need to do, Owen. Just
reach down, and, when you pull the plate out,
break the bungees - -
218 18 31 21 CDR Okay. Because those bungees aren't any good. You
can Just reach down and break them. That way
you don't have to slide it along those rollers.
218 18 31 35 PLT-EVA I see them. Why don't you Just float over there
and put all the grommets - on where they can't
slide off?
218 18 32 Bl SPT-EVA When these gro_nets are rolled over that end,
they're pretty difficult to get back up on top
of that locking ring.
CDR Jack, why don't you float back up there and see
if you can give Owen a hand?
PLT-EVA Okay.
CDR HopefUlly.
218 18 35 23 CDR Got any ideas that can help him there, Jack?
218 18 35 29 PLT-EVA What - I - I'm not exactly sure what he's trying
to do. But let me go up there and take a look.
SPT-EVA Whoops.
_3h2 _"
SPT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA All right. Well, then, *** one that you are
going to use.
218 18 38 38 SPT-EVA No, you - It's sort of funny to think that you
can't pop the elastic but -
218 18 h0 38 PLT-EVA Same nuts look like they are, but I got one
down here at the - It's not down in the slot,
but it's - Just behind the edge of the nut.
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 18 40 56 CDE I'll tell you what you could do. You could
work along - Well, maybe you ought to try to
break those three right there now, and use
those first in same way.
SPT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA No.
CDR Good.
SPT-EVA (Sigh)
218 18 43 02 SPT-EVA Got the third one out of the rack. The hard
part, so far, has been getting them out of the
rack.
/-
.3_6
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Now was that under my left arm, A1, that we decided
in the checklist to do it7
PLT-EVA Yes !
3_?_
f
l
_ PLT-EVAYes.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 18 50 15 PLT-EVA Oh-oh, let's not get too much line out
here.
218 18 51 43 SPT-EVA When you try to twist them out, it rotates that
locknut - as it drops into the slot.
SPT-EVA Four.
218 18 53 _3 PLT-EVA l'm reading you. Where do you want them, right
there ?
SPT-EVA Yes.
SI_-E_'A Okay.
218 18 56 35 CDR 0kay, 0wen, why don't you take a little break
on that and kind of float up and see if you
can open that camera to 22 and see if it bothers
the lens. And then let's Just leave it open
this day pass.
CDR What?
SPT-EVA I did.
218 18 57 21 SPT-EVA Don't think it's too bright. What did it look
like before, Jack? Too bright?
218 18 57 39 PLT-EVA No, I don't think it is, A1. It's pointing down
- at my feet.
218 18 58 06 CDR Been doing this work over - Let's see, it's now
- 12:16 - it's now 19:00. That's - and then
19:16 would be 7 hours and 6 hours, 45 minutes.
You've been doing your work across Thailand and
352
SPT-EVA Yes !
SPT-EVA No.
SPT-EVA By the ... Stow this first and then I'll take
a break and -
CDR 0kay.
218 19 00 23 PLT-EVA Okay, Owen, now where would you like me to point
that ?
218 19 00 42 SPT-EVA Well, you can try it there if you want, but that
wasn't where you had it before.
CDR Yes, help him put it where it is. You can't tell
what's behind you, Jack.
218 19 01 53 PLT-EVA Hey, AI, can you see the mtring going outs
CDR Six?
SPT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 19 02 46 PLT-EVA Okay. All right, I can't leave here and do that,
you know.
218 19 03 38 CDR I'ii tell you one other thing we could do.
When you get one pole out, if you want to do it,
you could come back into the lock compartment,
we could repress, and bring those poles with you,
we could repress, fix the poles, by scissoring
them or whatever else, depress the lock compartment,
go out and do it and finish the Job.
CC Go, A1.
SPT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA Okay?
SPT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA Elastic.
CDR Okay.
218 19 06 03 PLT-EVA How does that picture look down there now,
Houston?
SPT-EVA Oks_f.
2_18 19 07 44 PLT-EVA Oh, the way I'm standing up here, Story, I'm
heading backwards, but I'm standing upright
looking down at the - at the Earth. And over -
Right now, of course, we're over lots and
lots of blue Pacific and clouds. Off to
my right side, over there, I can - We're
halfway down the BaJa Peninsula now, and
I can see up to L.A. and almost up - almost
up to Frisco.
218 19 08 13 PLT-EVA Right. And I can see the Salton Sea. And
it's Just an all-around beautiful sight.
Yes, the curvature of the Earth is very,
very apparent up here; and the Earth truly
is round, and-
358 --_
218 19 08 56 PLT-EVA Okay, 0., I'ii fire this up to you and you
can put another one on there.
218 19 09 42 CDR Yes, time's okay. You've only been out i hour
and 40 minutes. We got plenty of time to go.
Some of those lunar surface EVAs are 7 hours, so
don't hurry. Just don't lose a grommet; don't
lose a part. You got it made.
CDR Huh?
PLT-EVA Yes. I'll bet it'll stay in there and take its
own set.
218 19 ll 30 PLT-EVA Oh, oh. Can you see the eye end at the end of the
pole, 0.?
PLT-EVA Is it twisted or - -
SPT-EVA Is it taut?
218 19 ll 45 PLT-EVA Well, it's not now, but it was a minute ago when I
was t-lking about it.
SPT-EVA Okay, rotate it - *** the other way, the other way.
SPT-EVA Huh-uh.
PLT-EVA Okay.
SF2-EVA (Chuckle)
CDR We'll put the big - put the Big Jack to work.
He's been la_ing around out there holding a pole.
We'll see what a Marine can do. I Just hope he
can handle the coning.
SPT-EVA Okay, that's all I'm going to pnll out for now.
PLT-EVA Okay. We'll Just let the dude float right there.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 19 14 35 CDR Too bad you can't push those poles the other
direction and then get them out. I guess it's
a little thing we slip behind the grommet then.
I can't remember how -
CDR Great.
SPT-EVA Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?
218 19 17 47 CDR Boy, are we hauling you know what across this
Earth (laughter). Hot dog! You know it is fun
to look out of these windows, Jack, particularly
at night.
363
P LT-EVA Yes.
218 19 18 l0 PLT-EVA Yes. I want to see the sunrise and sunset from
that window. I haven't been - We haven't been
able to see that out of the wardroom.
218 19 18 22 PLT-EVA That tube ... on that was easy. There's another
one.
s
218 19 18 31 CDR Is that l0 or ll?
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 19 18 48 PLT-EVA Don't let the last part of that thing get loose
from the plate there, 0.
218 19 19 29 CDR Excellent. You're the guy we've got to save now.
Later on, you're expendable when we get Jack out
there and have to carry him. See him like a
gladiator before the matchl Think I'll put
TV BUS 1 ON Just to see what happens.
SPT-EVA (Laughter)
218 19 20 39 SPT-EVA I came close to losing that first one though, I'll
tell you.
SPT-EVA All arms and legs, huh? Four legs and four arms?
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 19 21 16 SPT-EVA Yes, I'll keep a hold on this end of the rope and
you - *** untwist any lines that need -
CDR Are you able to look out there, 0wen, and see that
it's - untangled, or is that too close to the Sun?
218 19 22 03 PLT-EVA Go 180 the other way, 0wen. That's the way we - -
SPT-EVA It 's - -
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 19 22 26 SPT-EVA Yes, the trouble is - you know these rubber grom-
mets. While I was at it I was going to roll it
up on my cuff.
CDR Okay.
CDR Great.
218 19 22 46 CDR Okay, I'ii give you some words. Maneuver assembled
rod, hand over hand, out to the installation
position. When base end of rod is reached, swing
rod to the aligned position and attach to the
green socket in the base plate.
CDR Okay.
SPT-EVA Okay - -
367
/_
218 19 24 01 SPT-EVA Actually it works.
218 19 24 05 CDR Nice Job, Owen. That wasn't easy, I know. Nice
job.
218 19 24 i0 SPT-EVA Thank you. Here you go, Jack. Next time we come
out here to do it, we'll do it even faster.
SPT-EVA Okay, you are not quite aligned. Looks like you
need to push it away from you a little hit. There
you go.
218 19 24 51 PLT-EVA (Laughter) It's pulling them back and forth out
there. About a 4-second period, isn't it?
PLT-EVA It won't - -
SPT-EVA Okay, we'll let you, Story. I think the next rod
will go a little bit faster probably, although
what we're going to do is to - Jack is going to
come back and then we will - turn this - section
of rods over so that the next array is also facing
upward to me, so that I can see them as I pull
them out. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll drag more
across the rack and just pull another - and Almost
pull another grommet.
218 19 27 33 PLT-EVA Holy cow! What are we over here, AI? Is this
South America or what?
/_ 218 19 27 39 CC Affirmative.
37o
218 19 28 29 SPT-EVA You want to come up and flip this thing over, Jack?
You could release it up on that F-10 handrail; then
I can pull it out, keeping you tethered the whole
time.
218 19 28 56 SPT-EVA I think they are. Better run this hook through
one time.
PLT-EVA 0kay.
218 19 29 l0 PLT-EVA Okay. There's the hook with the white ring.
*** double ring is on the other side of the pole
and it's going to come to me next before it goes
through the end - opposite end. Okay. I think
we got that straight now. Now, I'm going to come
down there, O., and help you get those plates
turned over.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
218 19 30 47 PLT-EVA F-
218 19 31 01 PLT-EVA *** Tether. Once you pull these tethers up, they
don't want to (laughter) - release.
CDR (Whistling )
SPT-EVA Okay, you want to pull it out your way? Got enough
stability? Well, I can help.
218 19 31 26 PLT-EVA Well, I'm hooked - Come out this way yet, O.
218 19 31 39 PLT-EVA Yes, I think we can pry the corner down around -
my right.
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Oh.
PLT-EVA No, Just push it down to your left then, and we'll
get it out under that way and then rotate it over.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
218 19 32 39 PLT-EVA Now we've got it turned over. Let's Just slide
it under there, the way we took it out. Coming
up at you there.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
PLT-EVA I got news now - Tie it down down there and we're
back in business.
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 19 33 13 CDR Good. Sounds like you all are well organized to
me.
218 19 33 17 PLT-EVA Oh, it's Just going smoothly. We've Just got to
take our time.
CDR Good.
PLT-EVA *** ... out here. You don't go around this way
very often, like someone said.
218 19 33 36 PLT-EVA Now, 0., there's one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, nine, ten - GOt them - that's okay.
There's a couple of these, as I was counting them,
are the ones where the elastic - -
SPT-EVA Oh -
218 19 33 55 SPT-EVA Let me try to - I see which one that is. Let's
try to lift it over it.
CDR If there is only one, you might Just not use it.
218 19 34 02 PLT-EVA Well, we might and we might not, but I think it's
easy to do that.
SPT-EVA Yes -
CDR Okay.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
PLT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA Okay. Well, I'm not sure I can get em off, but
I'Ii try. _
PLT-EVA - - is to -
PLT-EVA Okay.
375
SPT-EVA Yes.
CC Yes, sir.
SPT-EVA I think I can get them all right. Those came off
well enough. I can Just pull them right off.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 19 35 43 CDR Watch the sunset. No, that wasn't you. That was
you going by the window (laughter). I thought it
was the Sun going down.
/'_ 218 19 36 40 CDR Sure wish night would come because I can't watch
you in the daytime.
376
218 19 B7 0B PLT-EVA You know this pla - this thing is really turning
brown where the Sun hits it.
SPT-EVA Uh-huh.
PLT-EVA Tan.
218 19 37 l0 CDR How does the serv - command and service module
look, Jack, or can you see it from there?
PLT-EVA Can't see much of it, A1. Can't see any of it.
It's still there, isn't it?
218 19 37 18 CDR With any luck at all. If it's not, I got a heck
of a big hole back there.
218 19 37 49 CDR Press on. Nothing to say. Get out pole, put
thing on the end, start doing it. You guys know
what you're doing• Just take it easy; don't get
overconfident• That's the easiest thing to do.
218 19 38 42 SPT-EVA Hey, you know, A1, that parasol is pulled down
right flush as far as it'll go.
SPT-EVA Yes.
CDR You think maybe the 8 inches was it, huh? _-_
377
218 19 38 52 SPT-EVA Uh-huh. That was exactly right, because the base
of the poles, where they spread out - -
CDR Yes.
CDR Yes.
218 19 39 ii CDR Isn't that funny? Maybe that - maybe that's why
we're been always - been a little cooler than
Pete up here. Maybe that's why it hasn't been
hot back in - some of those compartments that
_ were,whenPeteleft.
218 19 39 21 PLT-EVA Now, the pole that didn't extend - has the - most
shade for the workshop. And the pole that did
extend where the - the parasol went down the way
it was supposed to - -
CDR Yes?
SPT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA See that light blue; you can see that darker blue
streak through there.
218 19 h0 57 CDR The dark blue streak and then that sort of gold - .__
orange-gold color. When it comes up in the - in
the morning, it starts a little bit blue with the
littlest bit of gold, and then it Just gets bluer
and bluer, and the gold gets steadily a little
bigger, and then all of a sudden the gold starts
getting real wide and then the Sun comes out.
Look at the dark blue layer.
CDR Uh-huh.
CDR Yes.
218 19 _i 37 CDR And then the gold doesn't. The gold always - the
gold Just appears all at once.
218 19 42 00 CDR Oh, yes. I can't see it. It's behind the wing.
Too many solar panels.
218 19 42 05 PLT-EVA Yes. But directly where the Sun is, there is no
orange, but on either side, there is still some
orange.
CDR Boy, the Earth is sure big, isn't it? Gosh dog:
Look at the size of it. Even up here you can
see the - can barely discern the curvature. It's
a big ball'
218 19 42 46 CDR How's that line look up the pole now, Jack? Nice
and straight or can you see it in the dark?
CDR Great.
218 19 h3 05 CDR You know what's neat? As I look here I can see
that horizon move across the front of the ATM.
A little blue line is dropping as we drop behind
the Earth. It makes it seem like a planet instead
of Just a picture, like you're really going around
F something. Gosh' I 'm glad that S-IV worked and
S-IB did.
380
PLT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 19 46 16 PLT-EVA Okay, that one's paying good. The gro_et's in.
218 19 46 25 PLT-EVA 0., we're going to do this one exactly the same
way as we did the other one.
218 19 46 49 SPT-EVA Now that right there is the way I like to look at
it. Just like that.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 19 46 53 PLT-EVA Wait a minute, let me get the line untangled first.
SPT-EVA Okay, Just put it over that loop over the end
there and untangle it as you like.
SPT-EVA Okay. You happy with the way the lines are
separated?
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 19 49 01 SPT-EVA Elastic with all this - *** Appreciate all little
favors.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
218 19 50 59 SPT-EVA The pieces of elastic must come through the other
side because they're coming out easier on this
si de.
218 19 51 0h CDR Great: Good news, good news. I think the best
thing, though, is the fact that you stopped and
thought, figured out a better way, and did it,
instead of beating yourself to death on that
first one. That's great.
218 19 51 40 PLT-EVA You got - you got that on there already, 0.?
218 19 52 13 PLT-EVA Okay, wait a minute. *** I look that over. Wait
a minute, wait a minute. Found out one's come off;
it's loose from my glove.
SPT-EVA Okay?
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 19 52 41 PLT-EVA I'll bet they like it after they get some Sun on
them.
SPT Yes.
PLT-EVA Yes.
CDR What?
218 19 53 28 SPT-EVA You don't want them to slip off, though, or being
tight up against that nut, of course.
218 19 53 33 CDR That - that's right. You don't want them, and
that's why I said that - that once they're down
in that little concave spot, there isn't any
forces - -
CDR - - that can pop them out except, you know, a hand
rolling them out or s_nethlng. There's no - I
can't think of any thermal forces or any bending
forces that'd pop them out. Can you? Suppose
when that pole flexes, it can pop them out?
218 19 54 18 CDR Yes. Even if you took the locking nut off, they
shouldn't.
218 19 55 17 PLT-EVA Okay, you did that one very good. The two holes
are lined up with the line?
218 19 56 54 CDR If it doesn't make it, why don't you Just take it
and stash it inside of the airlock.
384
CDR Huh'
218 19 57 hl PLT-EVA Okay, I got that one lined up. The big grommet
is in.
PLT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
218 19 59 14 CDR Okay, that's where I'm going to hold it and play
it.
385
PLT-EVA Right.
PLT-EVA Okay -
218 19 59 27 SPT-EVA This one does not have the normal cap, Jack, so
I'm going to have to take it apart, check it all.
PLT-EVA 0kay.
218 19 59 39 CDR Which foot did you take out the foot restraints
for pulling out the poles, Jack - Owen?
218 19 59 43 SPT-EVA I take the right one out for pulling out the
poles; I take the left one out for making the
poles.
CDR Okay.
218 20 00 37 CDR You bet. ATM will have - I mean the workshop
will have one wing and the - and the sail out.
This one right here.
PLT-EVA Golly'
218 20 03 48 SPT-EVA I - I tapped the FAS area with the end of this
pole; I - I - -
CDR Yes?
387
218 20 04 21 CDR Tell me when the Sun starts to come up, would
you?
218 20 04 36 SPT-EVA Let me pull it out for you, Jack. I don't want
to lose that last - piece of elastic in here
next time. Okay?
218 20 05 55 PLT-EVA By golly, he's got the last one on there, A1.
PLT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 20 08 07 PLT Okay, that's screwed down tight. Old lock washer's
in.
218 20 08 50 CDR Well, there's got to be. The thing fit right on
the fit check, you know. My guess is that some-
how the line got crossed up up there, and we
Just don't know it.
PLT-EVA *** that bag ... out of the way; let me get it
out of the way. There we go_ Bag, easy, bag.
218 20 i0 45 CDR You have to wait until the Sun comes up.
218 20 ii 13 CDR Not too long, I noticed the horizon was right
behind you.
218 20 ii 39 CDR Where is the sail bag? Oh, that's over there
just behind the pole.
CDR Thunderstorm.
218 20 12 09 SPT-EVA Why was it flashing so high? It was above the blue.
Oh, I see - -
218 20 12 15 SPT-EVA No, it was above. But it's because this lower
blue is light reflected down beneath the horizon.
The horizon's actually up at the top where that
yellow is.
218 20 13 51 PLT-EVA That music came through the headset just right.
Just leave it like you did, AI.
f-.L
CDR Okay.
CDR What ?
218 20 14 43 CDR He's got to get this pole out, down, and deployed
and finished. As soon as he's finished the Job.
Then that's it.
218 20 14 50 SPT-EVA AM. exchange and all that stuff, that doesn't
count, huh?
CDR Huh-uh.
218 20 15 12 PLT-EVA Where's the next CMG over that way there, 0.?
Can you see it?
218 20 15 35 PLT-EVA It's coming but it's hard. Get down there ...
ah, darn !
218 20 16 16 PLT-EVA The right one is all the way straight. And the
left one makes a 180.
CDR Well - -
218 20 16 28 PLT-EVA The right one is all the way separated. The left
one makes a 180. There ain't no way to fix that.
218 20 16 54 PLT-EVA Huh-uh. It's only because if you saved one side,
it makes the other one 180 out.
PLT-EVA Tell you what I can do. I think I can lift the
pole out and take the left one and go around
once.
218 20 17 30 PLT-EVA Well, I'm still not sure that's going to do the
job. Let me think it about - about it for a
minute.
218 20 17 37 SPT-EVA Okay, do you want to hold it, and I can get a
better angle on it, Jack, if you can.
218 20 17 41 SPT-EVA Right one is - want to shake the left one a little
bit?
218 20 17 47 SPT-EVA Okay, it's - it's the red one - the one we just
made. l'm talking about the right-hand line.
Now the left-hand line does have a twist, but it
looks like it's a full twist, and it must have been
done as we were working at night. When we were
working at night, my guess is that it got a
twist in it that we didn'tsee. _-_
393
218 20 18 18 PLT-EVA Well, I'm not sure if you can straighten it out.
Let 's see.
CDR - - Jack.
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 20 18 46 SPT-EVA If it's passed under the butt plate, then it'll
straighten it out.
!
r
CDR Huh?
218 20 19 35 CDR I can't look out the window too good in the
daytime. Yes, I can see you. I see you good
there. I - I can look at you; I just can't look
at Jack. l've thought about taking pictures,
but there's no real way to do it, so I didn't
take any. I see you looking over the edge.
Looks okay to me.
SPT-EVA Hmm.
218 20 25 46 SPT-EVA No, it won't fit 180. No, it's got to go 360.
That's right. It'll have to go 360.
218 20 26 01 CDR We can't send it out that way. You know darn
well when they fit-checked it, it worked. We
_ got somethingtogetherwrong, and it's liable to
screw us up getting this sail out. Get the sail
396
PLT-EVA Okay.
CDR Okay.
218 20 26 16 SPT-EVA Now you have the tether on the rope already? No
way that thing could get loose no matter what
else we did?
218 20 26 24 SPT-EVA So you could pull that grommet off and Just work
it backwards.
218 20 26 51 PLT-EVA Yes, I was thinking, if I took the pole off that
you put on - The other thing I was thinking
about was swinging this down under here - whoops_
218 20 27 01 CDR I'll tell you what - Now wait a minute, Jack.
Let's do it like we're supposed to. Why don't
you hand that thing back to Owen, the end of it,
and let him look out the line. You hold the pole
end like you're supposed to and let him arrange
the other end. Let's don't try any new stunts.
218 20 27 14 PLT-EVA Yes, I'm trying to tell him what the best
possibility - -
PLT-EVA I think - -
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 20 27 36 PLT-EVA Now the big deal's going to be, we have to get
that grommet off again.
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 20 27 49 SPT-EVA Oh, that one. How about the other one, though.
218 20 28 01 PLT-EVA Okay, so - so the word I gave you was that you
had to - As you look at it, rotate it clockwise
360, okay?
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 20 28 ii CDR Well, he can rotate it, and then he can look
at it - -
CDR No, we're not. There you go. Hey, that's a long,
long pole, isn't it?
398
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 20 28 46 CDR I can see why you have trouble telling which way
to turn it.
CDR 0keydoke.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
218 20 30 ii SPT-EVA May not get that grommet out of there at all,
Jack.
218 20 30 13 CDR Okay, reach up there and take one of those poles.
Take that last pole, if you can, remove its
grommet, undo the lock, rotate it out, and
rotate it 360 clockwise and put the pole back in.
That's possible, too.
218 20 30 41 SPT-EVA Okay, well just a minute, I'ii watch what l'm
doing and go back each time. So, let's get it
as straight as we can right now. And I think
399
CDR That's right. If you could Just look out and see
the end, you could - you can do the whole thing.
218 20 31 15 CDR Now has he got the pole - has he got it slid all
_ theway outto the far- -
218 20 31 50 PLT-EVA I'm going to let you work the other line.
218 20 32 43 CDR Can you see all the way out to the far end or is-
the Sun in the way?
CDR Okay.
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 20 33 ii PLT-EVA Now wait a minute. So pull that - pull the one in
your left hand around the pole. Now how is it?
4oo
218 20 33 25 PLT-EVA Okay, now it's clear at your end; how's it down
at the other end?
PLT-EVA Negative.
CC Good.
CC ...
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 20 35 54 PLT-EVA Flip - flip any of them off the end - and -
now can you tell where they are, 0.?
218 20 36 01 SPT-EVA I can clear this left one, but the right one is
still going to have about a 70 twist or so. I
wish I could lift this gro_et - Just rotate
it. Can't get that gro-_et back out.
L_
402
218 20 37 14 PLT-EVA The - the red pole - I put it out and the right-
most line was clear, but the left-most line
had a 180 in it.
CC Okay.
PLT-EVA No.
PLT-EVA O., I'll hold this line out and you hold that
one out. Hard to tell when it's close to the
pole. Better hook behind the - in the tree
there, O.
SPT-EVA AI 1 right.
218 20 38 38 PLT-EVA Okay, let me hold this side out, Owen, and
you hold the other one out and see how she
looks.
SPT-EVA Take the pole one way, and rotate the pole
clockwi se ?
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 20 39 59 PLT-EVA No, on your end. Looks like you could take that
one you had in your other hand - and flip it
around the bottom -
218 20 40 18 PLT-EVA Yes. Okay, now hold it out. Now hold the
other line out, I'll hold this one. Okay, there
you go. Now has your line got a twist or not?
218 20 40 42 PLT-EVA Okay. It's got a twist behind you there, too.
Well, that's the one I'm t_]king about. There's
no twist beyond you. Everything's free beyond
you.
218 20 40 53 PLT-EVA No. But there's Just one twist right in front
of my nose.
218 20 40 59 PLT-EVA Right. Now see, Houston, that's the queer thing.
We have one line that goes all the way out with
no twist, and the other line's got a i00 - 180
in it.
405
218 20 41 07 CDR The reason is, Jack, is because when he put that
thing on, he wrapped it once around the line.
What Owen's got to do is disconnect the pole,
rewrap it once around one of those lines and then
connect it.
218 20 41 23 PLT-EVA Okay, hold it on out there, Owen, and let me take
a look at it.
218 20 41 25 CDR You - you hold it apart, you disconnect the pole
and then lift it over around the one to his right.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
218 20 41 40 CDR Just get rid of that line to your left, Owen.
218 20 42 02 PLT-EVA Okay, now, you Just - twist your thing around
here until it's clear. I'll hold this.
218 20 42 09 PLT-EVA There, that a boy. Now let's - Quick. Wrap her
good. Now bring her back, and I'll - -
406
218 20 42 29 PLT-EVA Okay. You all grommetted and everything there, 0.?
218 20 42 32 SPT-EVA Not yet. I Just wanted to check to make sure there's
no ...
218 20 42 54 CDR Hear that thing drop through that hole. There
you go.
218 20 42 59 CDR Lousma strikes again. Now it's your act, Big
Jack.
218 20 45 32 CDR Okay, I'm ready to read you the next step, huh?
218 20 45 37 CDR Okay, you got them in the base plate. A_] right,
may I read the next step then?
/_. 218 20 45 44 CDR Verify each clothesline has a color ring_ within
reach, that has a single white line on it.
218 20 45 52 CDR Open sail bag, attach red sail hook to clothesline
red ring with single white line on it and green
sail hook to clothesline green ring with single
white line on it.
218 20 46 05 CDR Let me know when that's finished, and I'll read
the next.
218 20 46 42 CDR Okay, now pull a little bit of sail out of the
bag. By the way, have you observed if you've
got them hooked and that they're coming the right
direction?
4O8
218 20 46 55 CDR Pull a little bit of sail out of the bag, then
take up the slack with the clothesline.
218 20 47 00 CDR Continue this action until the second set of attach
hooks on the sall are reached and have passed
through the eyes.
218 20 47 19 PLT-EVA The next thing is, I pull those up. Those other F-
things are coming down, before they go through
the end.
218 20 47 28 PLT-EVA So I'll get a little sail out of the bag here.
218 20 47 39 SPT-EVA Looks like you got a big wad all at once.
218 20 48 01 CDR Now, is the right side going out facing the
workshop and everything?
218 20 48 08 PLT-EVA Well, it's going to turn out to be white side out.
4O9
218 20 48 18 CDR The red rings to the red side, and the green to the
green side, and the poles are in the right holders;
there's no other way.
218 20 48 48 CDR Probably been in that bag a long time .... took
a pretty good set.
218 20 49 06 PLT-EVA It comes out of the bag with both sides at a time.
218 20 49 19 CDR Hey, I'll tell you what you want to do. Reach
up there and make sure that that pulls apart
fairly easy. It's liable to pull your poles
together instead of spreading out the material.
218 20 50 35 SPT-EVA Yes, it's that seal. It's the edge seal that's
sticking together. Like it's sort of like - oh,
flour paste or something.
218 20 50 58 CDR Pull them apart and kind of bend them backwards
at those little seams.
218 20 51 09 SPT-EVA Hey, the poles are nice and stable, Jack. They're
not flopping.
218 20 51 23 SPT-EVA You know, sitting out here, looking over this
great big solar wing makes you feel like you're
in an airplane.
PLT-EVA Yes.
411
SPT-EVA Talk about the horizon now. I can see from edge
to edge and it looks like, you know, the whole
horizon Just - makes a full arc - -
218 20 52 16 CDR I say he's - I said he's doing eight times the
work.
CREW-EVA (Laughte r)
218 20 53 h4 PLT-EVA Yes. I Just about got the other ring here.
218 20 54 07 PLT-EVA Well, there's the end we all been looking for.
412
218 20 54 45 CDR So when you get it fully out, let me know and I'll
read the rest.
218 20 54 57 PLT-EVA Yes, I'll get this end, just like I did the other
end.
218 20 55 00 SPT-EVA I mean even up here. You know, these things have
not started separating much.
218 20 55 20 SPT-EVA I expect the Sun will do something for it, too.
218 20 55 32 SPT-EVA Yes, in fact, they're split apart at the ends quite
a ways.
218 20 55 35 CDR When you add that total force on there, that might
be a lot, though. You might put it out and it
might expand over the next few days.
218 20 56 09 PLT-EVA I Just want to get this end like the other end.
Yes, I've pulled on a bunch of those and they seem
to come apart pretty easy.
218 20 56 33 CDR There you go. That broke it free a little bit.
Sure likes the set it's had for all these months.
218 20 57 15 CDR There you go, Jack. You're doing great. Now
it's starting to crinkle and separate. Maybe
that Sun's get - hitting it and it's warming it up,
Just like Owen said. There you go.
218 20 57 37 CDR Hey, way to go, Jack. Now that's getting it.
You get that baby out there, it'll do it now.
_ That's good.
414
218 20 58 16 PLT-EVA Okay, now these poles have been moved in, somewhat
closer to - a little bit to each other.
218 20 58 19 CDR Yes. They may pull out when the Sun gets on this
thing. 8:45, we're coming up on South America
down near the tip - tip of Argentina. We'll be
there in 6 to 5 minutes.
218 20 59 07 CDR Okay, you guys have been out there 3 hours - and
maybe 30 minutes, I'm not sure. So let's get going.
PLT-EVA Hurry.
218 21 O0 hl PLT-EVA A1, it's Just about out. It's about _ feet
from the tip of the pole - -
218 21 00 _6 PLT-EVA - - and the poles are - are bent in a little bit,
probably a couple of feet each, p,1]Sed inward.
218 21 00 51 CDR How about the pleats? Are they accordioned out
somewhat? Are any of them stuck together?
218 21 O1 06 CDR Don't let them bend in too close and break, now.
If need be, bring them back and shake the middle
ones out.
SPT-EVA Do it.
218 21 01 38 PLT-EVA Well, I think we'll try to yank it all the way out
and decide what happens.
218 21 01 48 SPT-EVA Do you want to take it all the w_y out, first?
PLT-EVA No - -
218 21 02 34 CDR How about the folds, though? Are the folds each
and every one of - are any of the folds stuck
together physically or are they all Just sort of
partially opened?
218 21 02 _2 SPT-EVA Some are partially open, some are not. But
it looks like they may be all trying to open.
Bit of Jostling like that, I think is some help.
Also, vibrate the poles a little bit. That'd help
too.
218 21 02 58 PLT-EVA Yes, that's what I was thinking. I did that once.
218 21 03 27 SPT-EVA Coming out a little bit more each time there,
Jack, I thought.
218 21 04 22 CDR Looks like they're slowly coming out, doesn't it?
218 21 05 0h CC Skylab, we're reading you loud and clear over the
Vanguard for 8 minutes.
218 21 05 34 CC Okay.
218 21 05 54 CC And you did get the twists out of the lines?
218 21 07 28 CC Okay, it sounds like you got that work under con-
trol, A_I, and I'll try to get you an answer on the
folds. And is there anything we can do for you
down here ?
218 21 07 36 PLT-EVA I Just yanked it all back in, Story, and - and
took the folds apart as much as I could, and it
looks like it's doing better now.
419
218 21 07 51 PLT-EVA I can only see one pleat. In fact, it Just opened
up partly now. A]] pleats are partly expanded.
218 21 07 55 CDR Good deal, that does it. Some of the pleats are
of course fully - -
_ 218 21 08 30 CC Okay.
218 21 09 33 CDR Excellent, Jack. All the way out to the end too,
huh?
218 21 09 39 CDR Okay, now. I'll be reading you the next step,
old chap. That's great, Jack. Just super. Okay.
Secure clotheslines with the alligator clips lo-
cated on the base. Adjust friction knobs, two,
for light friction. Rotate sail plate with the
sail positioning knob - -
218 21 l0 34 CC Okay.
218 21 l0 49 SPT-EVA Okay, if the picture's any good, why - or not any
good, well, I can adjust it for them up here. I
Just didn't know what the quality was.
218 21 ll 20 PLT-EVA Okay, A1, I'm ready to go down to the dog bone.
218 21 ll 22 CDR Ready to dog bone it. Okay, babe? How are the
EVA lights out there, Jack?
218 21 ll 38 PLT-EVA I didn't rotate this down, now. Maybe I'd better
rotate it Just a little bit.
_ 218 21 ll 58 PLT-EVA Well_ I'm not going to make it this time around,
buddy.
218 21 12 02 CC Okay.
218 21 12 39 SPT-EVA Well, I'Ii tell you, you're already there right
now, because one of the fishing rod poles did not
extend, as you know, on the parasol and that means
the forward edge - this leading edge has been raised
up and it's resting on the pole right now.
218 21 13 56 SPT-EVA Hey, looks like the poles are kind of resting on
the upper edge of the parasol. Can't tell too
well, myself.
218 2_114 28 SPT-EVA Hey, do you think - I didn't notice any degradation
on the parasol.
218 21 14 59 SPT-EVA But if the first one reflects 99 percent, then the
second one really doesn't make much difference.
But it may not do that, of course. Maybe it only
reflects 50 *** take another big chunk or some-
thing; I don't know.
CDR Okay -
218 21 15 27 SPT-EVA Okay, you're coming down. You're coming down, Jack -
Jack.
218 21 15 35 SPT-EVA Okay. Looks like the leading edge of the parasol
is down within about a foot of the workshop, so I
asst_ne that the back end must be flush.
218 21 15 59 CDR Wasn't the rule, say bring it down until it's -
the - the poles just touch the front edge height.
Isn't that it?
218 21 16 09 CDR That's it. And not the front edge that's
sticking way up in the air, but the one
that's sort of normal. The horizontal one.
218 21 16 16 PLT-EVA Yes. The problem is, right now, A1, I can't
see it.
CDR Okay.
218 21 16 40 PLT-EVA Okay, how does the leading edge of the - parasol
look? Does it look like it -
218 21 16 46 SPT-EVA It's down below the poles, for some reason.
It looks like when you pushed them down, they
sort of stayed down - down.
218 21 17 46 CDR Yes, but how about the two side ones?
218 21 18 15 CDR Well, now, let's see here. That thing goes
around the dog bone and the question you
want to know is: Are the reefing lines on
i_ correctside of clothesline? So when you
take those out, you'll want to check. I
don't know which is correct, but you'll be
able to see out there.
426
218 21 18 33 PLT-EVA Oh. Can't see much of anything down there now.
218 21 20 57 CDR Hey, kid, you better - that dog bone, that
thing's around your t_bilical. You ought _-_
427
CDR Okay.
218 21 21 47 CDR Now, Owen. Look at that and make sure that
umbilical's in the right place.
218 21 22 02 SPT-EVA Look what you got, Jack? You've got the
umbilical beside your - beside your - -
CDR Ok ay.
CDR Okay.
CDR 0wen?
CDR Okay.
218 21 24 02 SPT-EVA Looks like he's flopped that end out pretty
well.
_,29
CDR Okay.
218 21 25 35 CDR This is where the sorry design comes into play.
218 21 25 54 SPT-EVA Okay, let me make a - Oh, you mean the sail?
_ PLT-EVAYes. - -
PLT-EVA The only one that's got the right tension on it.
218 21 26 12 SPT-EVA Okay, I 'm watching, Jack. *** too much more.
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
218 21 26 39 SPT-EVA Yes, I think so. Whoop_ You better stop; your
foot is hung up. 0op' There it went. Just a
minute; just a minute.
218 21 27 19 PLT-EVA Come on, red. Red - red here I ain't sure
ab out.
431
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 2_130 36 CDR There you go. Should have hooked the tether
to that little red one and not that other one.
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 21 30 _5 CDE That's where you get the short. Okay. Maybe
you can grab that other one now and disconnect
your tether. There you go.
218 21 3h Oh CDR It's not bending both poles over this way,
is it?
CDR Okay.
PLT-EVA Yes - -
CDE Yes - -
SPT-EVA 0kay.
PLT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
218 21 35 25 CDR Send in the old boom, and he'll send you
the bag.
218 21 36 01 SPT-EVA Say when, Jack. I can't see that pole. Oh.
Okay, here it is.
PLT-EVA 0kay, 0.
218 21 36 24 CDR When you get it, 0., take it off and hook it
around the FAS somewhere because Jack'll be
back in a few minutes and he can hook it
inside the - the lock.
PLT-EVASorrydeal. f-_
435
218 21 37 17 CDR Why don't you Just come out of the foot restraints
and pull up and hand it to him if you can't hook
it on.
218 21 37 43 PLT-EVA Could go like that, I guess. Might not make it.
PLT-EVA No.
PLT-EVA No.
218 21 38 00 CDR Why don't you Just float back and hand it to him,
Jack?
CDR Yes.
F 218 21 38 31 CDR We're going to play them our song on this one.
436
PLT-EVA What ?
218 21 39 13 SPT-EVA Passed that already. I'll go down and get it.
CDR Okay.
CDR Okay.
PLT-EVA Huh?
218 21 39 32 PLT-EVA Okay. I'm - I'm with A1; let's get this going.
218 21 39 37 CDR Okay, well, I'm telling you. Those guys get
ideas - those doctors - they ain't been out ;
he's been sick; let's cut out this, cut out
that. Let's get going; so we're already doing
it.
218 21 40 05 CDR Okay, I'm Just telling you, everything you got
out there, stow. Jack needs to put it in the
AM, pretty far back, where he got them. No need
to put any tethers on. Just grab them, stick
them in there, and tether them inside. Don't
need to tether them during transfer.
218 21 40 25 PLT-EVA Okay, 0., it's loose at this end. Got it loose
there ?
_ 2-18 21 40 41 SPT-EVA Yes. I'll get them. I want to get the foot
restraints, here.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 21 41 37 SPT-EVA The other one, if you want to put it on the same
hook?
PLT-EVA Still got your gold visor down too, if you want
any better visibility.
218 21 41 58 SPT-EVA Well, let's see. That's about it, isn't it?
438
SPT-EVA Yes.
CDR And you got the two plates with the poles in
the - -
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 21 42 08 CDR Okay, let's get on with the next one. Okay?
SPT-EVA Tether -
218 21 h3 13 CDR Wait a minute; I take that back. You don't have
to double tether this stuff. In fact, what you
ought to do with your tethers is not put them
up, but hook them back on your sleeve. So you
don 't - -
218 21 43 55 SPT-EVA No, but that - I left that one extra that we had
out here right on F-6.
PLT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA I remember.
218 21 4h 31 PLT-EVA And then you got to put that little block thing
under that punch button.
218 21 h4 50 PLT-EVA Yes. That's the one that goes to the end.
Okay, I got that.
218 21 hh 5h CDR Okay, whenever he's ready, you can take it and
put it where it belongs.
218 21 h5 03 CDR Maybe you can use the tether and tether it.
2/8 21 h5 20 PLT-EVA Okay. Hey, 0; VS tree; there it is. He's got it.
2_18 21 h5 43 SPT-EVA Better get your umbilical out of here, Jack, too.
218 21 h5 55 CDR Okay, and, Jack, when you've finished there, get
out the 230 clips.
PLT-EVA 0kay.
218 21 46 2h SPT-EVA Well, that's fine, A1, but we're going too fast'
218 21 h6 45 CDR Clip that down at this end, Jack. Way down here,
otherwise it's going to bother you when you get
in later.
218 21 47 16 PLT-EVA You Just Jam it onto the - onto the handrail,
A1 - Owen, - -
f--
442
SPT-EVA 0kay.
SPT-EVA Oh. That's what I see now; that's the way I did,
but it looks like it's come loose.
218 21 47 23 PLT-EVA And then - and then you put the little black thing
443
218 21 48 40 PLT-EVA Okay, space fans, here the kid is at the VSC -
VC foot restraints.
PLT-EVA Hey, you know what? That sail -that front fold
sail is - the rods are about a foot from the
edge - on the forward edge here, - -
218 21 50 36 CDR Give him some slack. He's got to lean back and
things.
CDR Okay.
PLT-EVA I am ready.
218 21 51 00 PLT-EVA Have we got this thing installed around the right
dog bone? Now there's some more dog bones where
the ATM rotates on the MDA. I think we must.
218 21 51 21 PLT-EVA _*_ lock, it says "push." It's unlocked and _-_
open.
1,45
218 21 51 2h CDR Okay, lean back, get it, and install it. That
ought to be straightforward.
PLT-EVA Yes, those are the ones. Those are the ones we
did in the trainer, anyway. There is some other
kind of dog hones over there where the ATM swung
around and pivoted off the _OA there.
218 21 53 19 PLT-EVA Okay, the door is locked and the flag is visible.
218 21 53 47 PLT-EVA Okay, S056 is in there and the big white flag
came out and stared me right in the face.
218 21 54 15 CDR Owen's got H-alpha i on the boom and locked hook.
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA
Okay. _-_
CDR Okeydokey.
r_
447
_ SPT-EVA Okay.
218 21 55 37 CDR You can make your camera check over a ground
station.
218 21 55 54 PLT-EVA You might take a look at that door as it goes by.
That's the one that Pete said wouldn't lock.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
PLT-EVA 0kay.
PLT-EVAYes.
448
218 21 57 47 PLT-EVA A1, the white flag is barely visible, but the
door seems to be locked. It's - - _--_
s
449
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 21 59 18 CDR Okay, I'll try to keep it out of the shade. See,
that's the problem. I can't get it pointing at
/_ you and in - the lens in the shade. I'll Just
take a chance.
45O
PLT-EVA Headed.
CDR Huh?
PLT-EVA Did you take your camera checkout while you were
the re ?
PLT-EVA Okay.
451
218 22 01 06 PLT-EVA Okay, here we come around to align the Sun end.
How am I going to eat all that food before I go
to bed? That's - -
218 22 O1 17 SPT-EVA I don't know, but you have earned it. Just eat
what you please.
SPT-EVA Okay ?
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
453
218 22 06 52 CDR I - I'm floating all over the place. Let me find
it, though; find your foot restraints. Okay,
here you go, Jack. What you want to look at is
this box and you want to look like - at area 1
which, as you look at it - now the box is located
to the upper right. That's the big box to the
upper right.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 22 09 Oh PLT-EVA Well, the old command module, sir - now let me
describe that - It's getting a little brown
around the hatch. Some places are browner than
the others. There's a - it all looks a little
bit tan. Everything, as a matter of fact, on
the MDA and - everything exposed to the Sun is
a little bit tanned. The command module is not
as tanned as the rest because it hasn't been
there as long, but the command module itself's
got some dis - some tan discoloration on it. It's
more pronounced and it's got a line running -
in a line below the hatch around the circumference
and then up between your rendezvous and docking
window and then along in front of your docking
window circumferentially along the upper edge of
the hatch and it kind of stops over by my -
over by my rendezvous window .... - -
455
218 22 ll 02 PLT-EVA Okay, Story. I'm hanging out here from a - from
a - Okay, trying to work with the VC on the ATM,
and I'm hanging on this side here by this box
you wanted me to look over. And I see no evidence
of discolorationand I see no evidenceof any
residue around those vent ports, whatsoever.
This box that you wanted me to look at looks
very much intact. I am looking at the command
module now. Sure is neat to hang out here in the
breeze with one arm and Just kind of drift along
with this thing as it's streaking the ground. I
noticed on the command module itself, there's -
and on the whole spacecraft for a matter - that
matter, Skylab - everything ex - that is exposed
to the Sun is turning tan - very much a tan color.
That which is not exposed to the Sun is still white.
On the command module, it's starting to turn tan
a little bit. Also some discoloration on the part
that looks at the Sun. And then there's a darker
218 22 12 09 brown line, not dark brown but a darker tan, that
runs underneath the hatch circumferentially over
to a point - near Al's - rendezvous and docking
window and his sidewindow and then it runs up
between those two windows. And then back around -
along circumferentially along the top of the
hatch over to my rendezvous window. Now, it's
pretty hard to see quad B as well as quad A. I
notice that both A and B - the quad package itself
appears from this point to be pitted. And it
f 218 22 12 5h appears to have been heated rather well on the
sort of cubicalstructureu_pon which the - the
thrusters are mounted. The skin around quad A

CC 0kay.
218 22 14 26 SPT-EVA The center work station checks are complete, Story,
including the checkout of the H-alpha and S056
magazines.
PLT-EVA Earlier.
218 22 15 28 CDR Okay, Jack, let me read you something when you
get back to your normal EVA station, the VC.
218 22 15 49 PLT-EVA Well, like I said, the whole side facing the Sun
is a little bit tan and right - I notice that
there are some extra brown spots right behind the
Joint where the ATM is butted up against the -
the temporary structure. They are sort of tri-
angular in shape and about 4 inches by 2 inches
and - -
(Music : Reveille )
CDR How about above the EVA hatch towards the STS?
218 22 16 39 CC Copy that, Jack, and while I've got you there,
Just a reminder. When you're cranking open the
S149, to do that extremely slowly because there's
a tremendous gearing down coming from the motor
to the mechanism and the motor speeds up very
rapidly when you're cranking that experiment open.
F
PLT-EVA Okay. I really can't see any evidence of any
_lycol streaming, Story, on the side of the MDA.
458
CC Okay.
(Musi c : Reveille )
CC SPT, Houston.
SPT-EVA Go ahead.
CDR Okay, while we're on the way, how about, 0., _-_
check your EMU status, babe.

the hook and verifying it's unlocked, remove
VS tree from receptacle and attach VS tree to
boom - -
CDR Okay.
218 22 22 15 CDR How does the sail and everything look, Jack?
218 22 23 40 CDR Okay. Remo - Unclamp EV-2 LSU and provide slack
for VS transfer. Egress VT foot restraints,
r_ ingressVS foot restraints. Remove slack and
clamp at 35 feet, Big O.
462
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 22 24 08 CDR The reason they didn't get the music is I didn't
punch down the transmit button. I did the second
time, though. Thought it'd be nice if it faded
off into the distance.
218 22 24 16 PLT-EVA Did that Just right. Okay, I'm in the foot
restraints. Man' What a grand feeling to be
up here - -
CDR Okay.

218 22 3-!-
22 SPT-EVA Let's just stop at that point.
218 22 31 51 CDR Okay, I'm going to hit the door open again.
PLT-EVA Do it. Call them now and let them know about it.
CDR Okay.
218 22 32 h0 SPT-EVA Yes, Jack's got to do that while he's out there.
218 22 32 55 CDR Let's just wait a second here. Okay, we're not
getting a lot of action out of that one. Maybe - -
CDR Yes.
218 22 33 15 PLT-EVA There goes the door closed. 82A doors going
closed. No -
218 22 33 28 SPT-EVA This may be that same READY light anomaly, but
it's supposed to not be there whenever you -
have FLARE, INHIBIT.
469
CDR No, just hold on. I'm going to open these doors
again. Maybe it was - that's the problem. It's
got FLARE, ENABLED, whether I like it or not in
this window.
CDR Okay.
218 22 34 23 SPT-EVA You took a frame all right, and the only thing
that's puzzling is why you didn't have a READY
light.
PLT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
CDR XUV MAIN POWER, OFF. You got all the doors
closed up there, Jack?
218 22 38 37 CDR l'm going to put the 55 door open, so see it come
open. Coming - -
CDR Okay.
473
CDR Okay - -
218 22 39 34 CDR All right. When I get it near you I'm going to
close and open the door a time or two and I want
F you to watch and observe for binding or anything
like that, okay?
CDR Okay. It's not plus 3 now; it's not even close.
I better - I'm going to stop. Now don't you
start taking anything off. Okay, here comes

PLT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Okay.
CC Thank you.
218 22 44 00 PLT-EVA This screw is going to come all the way out.
You might say they got a screw loose up here -
Story.
CC Copy that.
218 22 45 36 PLT-EVA Yes, I can verify that. Now the leading edge of
_ the sail is - The pole is about 1 foot abovethe
skin of the workshop and the - end of the pole is
down on the workshop at the aft end. The pole on
the right, whichever one that is - is - The end
of it looks likes it's resting on the - on that
big bump down there on the end of the workshop.
218 22 46 09 PLT-EVA Well, I can't see right now. 0ops! There goes
the Sun, too.
CDR Yes.
SPT-EVA Supposed to be - -
SPT-EVA Several.
CC ...
218 22 49 02 SPT-EVA Boy, it gets dark out here, you know that? There's
nothing but me and the lights on my PCU. There's
the moon. We got a half Moon up here, Story.
218 22 49 54 CC Okay. And going over the hill here, we'll prob-
ably have you repeat the tapes [sic] on page 2.1-14
48o
B
sequence when we can see it over Ascension. We'll
be ready.
CDR Okay.
SPT-EVA Hey, A1 - -
CDR Okay.
CDR ...
218 22 52 23 PLT-EVA Yes, you can see - you can see clouds down there.
The light's reflecting through them. I don't see
any thunderstorms right now, do you?
SPT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA *** pull your visor up, you might see more.
SPT-EVA ...
SPT-EVA Okay.
CDR And then I'm the subject later at night while f-_
Jack observes me and - we do a bunch of other
_83
SPT-EVA Good.
218 22 55 03 CDR SPT - Looks like he gets on and stays on. They
want to see if you know anything about it, Owen.
218 22 55 25 SPT-EVA Hope they find out - figure out something on that
... - got everything else more or less working,
for a while.
218 22 55 51 PLT-EVA Yes, I hope they solve that one. A1, I could do
a little more drifting around after a while and
look over the command module a little more.
PLT-EV_ Well, no, not tonight, but I mean that 's probably
one other thing we've got to do.
218 22 56 l0 CDR ... let him finish 149, ATM, do the poles, and all
that other stuff, no drifting. They've asked
us to drift and we drifted. If they ask us
to drift some more, we'll drift some more. No
drifting on our own.
SPT-EVA Huh!
218 22 57 12 CDR We want to finish this and get down there and get
those poles adjusted. Now, they told me something _
new. If it touched the back, you didn't have to
retract it. Now I didn't have that written any-
where, did you?
218 22 57 25 PLT-EVA That's what I was wondering. What are you talking
about?
_85
t
218 22 57 47 PLT-EVA Yes, you know I noticed that that thing isn't
completely unfolded and unfurled.
218 22 58 16 CDR That's what you want to tell him now. Whenever
we get out in the Sun, explain exactly what you
see out there, Jack.
PLT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
CC Roger.
218 22 59 h6 CDR 0kay_ now I'll tell you one reason we're probably
not. I just flipped the LAMP TEST switch in all
positions and got no LAMP TEST. Now I didn't
throw any circuit breakers up here or anything
else because of our problem. So I'm Just standing
by for a suggestion.
218 23 00 16 CDR Okay, now one more thing Story, because we're
going to be losing you again. We're going to
come out in the light. We're going to go down
and look at the poles again after we do 1_9. _--_
We had no procedure aboard that mentioned anything
_87
CDR Okay, one other thing. Jack and Owen both pointed
out that - in no place does the twin-pole parasol
cover - the twin-pole sail cover the parasol.
And that - it is not fully extended. It still
has a little - I mean it is fully extended out
to the end of the poles, but the accordion pleating
is keeping it from going the maximum width that
the parasol is. It never extends beyond the
parasol.
CC We copy that.
CREW (Laughter)
218 23 01 55 CDR And, Story, one thing more. Would you mind if I
ran through that procedure on 2.1-14 and make sure
it decrements even one more frame?
CDR 0keydoke.
SPT-EVA Okay.
CDR 23:00. f_
218 23 04 01 CDR I hate to not cycle that thing again, but I'm
not going to.
218 23 04 47 SPT-EVA Oh, how about the lighting switches over there
that say NUMERIC and - -
CDR Okay.
218 23 05 07 CDR Like Jack said, they went smooth and they
decremented.
PLT-EVA Oh, I've got the thing off. I'm Just kind of
collecting the pieces together.
CDR Good.
w
490
I
218 23 05 23 CDR Remove bolt stop and tape to tree; that and the
wrench. Now I'm going to close 55 door and then
cycle it a couple of times.
CDR Huh!
218 23 06 14 SPT-EVA I'd sort of forgotten. Did you read to Jack the _-_
correct procedure for leaving that EVA roll panel
down there by the center work station?
218 23 06 54 SPT-EVA No, there are some - some power switches that you
normally turn off.
218 23 07 08 SPT-EVA Do you know whether you did - whether you turned
them on and off, or what position they were in,
Jack?
CDR Don't turn them off now. It doesn't tell us to. _-_
That's where we're getting screwed up. Let's
stick with this checklist.
PLT-EVA I Just lost one little shim.
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA Yes.
r -
CDR Can you tell a difference from the other times?
218 23 09 ii CDR Okay, now l'm going to roll this back, Jack, so
watch out.
218 23 09 27 CDR Okay, now, 0., unclamp EV-2. Jack, you just
stay still for a minute.
PLT-EVA Yes.
SPT-EVA ...
218 23 i0 04 PLT-EVA Well, the whole world's upside down now, space
fans.
CDR Okay.
SPT-EVA Complete.
CDR Okay.
218 23 ll 54 CDR Pass the tree, bring it back - pass the tree, lock,
bring it back, and stow it, you know where. You've
got l0 minutes to sunrise, Jack.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 23 12 24 PLT-EVA Now, O. I don't remember what side you had the -
218 23 12 45 SPT-EVA In other words your wedge goes away from the ATM.
218 23 13 04 PLT-EVA About 2 feet. Oh. Oh, man, it's a good shot l--
there, O.
SPT-EVA
Yes.
218 23 lh 09 SPT-EVA Not until we bring them back in the next time.
_- 218 23 lh 20 SPT-EVA Now that one shim I saw float away, floated
away from the ATM.
218 23 14 29 SPY-EVA Yes, it's that EVA light - if you can see
it then it's - -
PLT-EVA ...
218 23 14 _2 CDR Okay, that's a note for the EVA people. Pick
this up, EVA people - Bob Kain. Make sure
that when they train putting the 82_A and B
cans on, they do it with the shoe towards the
AM. Otherwise, it's going to strike a light
that's on the top of the FAS. Please send us
up a change to put that in ours, too. Okay,
Jack, let me read to you a few tidbits. Let me
get - let me give O. a chance to stow that
thing, first. Don't get ahead of the ballgame.
CDR Okay.
218 23 17 12 CDR Sure is, and you have to work at a funny position,
too.
218 23 17 52 CDR Okay. Then when you do that, let me know, and
I'll tell you what to do about the crank, Jack.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 23 18 29 PLT-EVA Okay. Oh, man, look at all the forest fires
down there.
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 23 19 09 PLT-EVA (Chuckle) Okay, 0., take her back, I've got
it. It's all tethered in good hands, and all
that stuff. Take it back, please?
218 23 19 37 CDR No, you got to put out the - You got to get
that plate.
SPT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
218 23 21 03 SPT-EVA Now, how about when you open it up. Is it going
to be hitting you in the face or anything?
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA ...
CDR Okay, and you got to put that thing back to lock
or something. Okay - -
PLT-EVA Yes.
f-_ CDR All right, let me give you the next statement,
Jack. Now, ro - -
5OO
CDR Okay.
218 23 22 49 CDR I'ii look out the ... back - down here 0. - over
the ground here in a few minutes, Jack, to see if
I can tell where we are. l'm pretty sure we're
going to be over Africa.
PLT-EVA Okay.
CDR l'd taken this chart out awhile ago, and it ran
off - -
CDR Good.
SPT-EVA Okay.
SPT-EVA 0kay.
PLT-EVA Some little ones and some big ones. Some are
small as a - -
CDR A dime?
218 23 25 01 CDR Okay. Ease your bod down to the twin poles and
work on them.
218 23 25 18 PLT-EVA Okay, I'Ii see if I can do that. Okay, we got the
wrench clear of the 149.
CDR Okay.
218 23 25 53 SPT-EVA It's really clear - the demarcation where the Sun
goes and where it doesn't. Everything mskes a
shadow, a very distinct - discoloration of the
paint. Looks like somebody took a brush and Just
painted the lines.
SPT-EVA
Uh-huh. _-_
SPT-EVA What ?
218 23 26 17 CDR What did you do about looking at the quads? How
did they look?
218 23 27 l0 CDR Okay, just be careful you don't break those poles.
Because we've got it made now if we don't break
them.
SPT-EVA I do what?
CDR Let's just leave it out and next EVA we'll try to
spread it some more.
218 23 28 03 SPT-EVA I don't think it'll spread any more because the
guy wires are pulling off to right angles. It's
Just - too wide.
218 23 28 19 CDR Okay. Put her down on the bottom and let's park
it.
218 23 28 22 PLT-EVA Yes. The red pole is straight and the green pole
is dang near straight.
504
SPT-EVA I know what they look like; I Just can't see them.
218 23 28 47 PLT-EVA I see two little brown things; look like they
might be roll thrusters.
PLT-EVA I see them for roll, but I don't see any - pitch.
218 23 29 13 PLT-EVA Oh, I see a pitch one there, but it looks like it's
well clear. Looks like it points - straight out
radially from the - the skin.
PLT-EVA - - ...
CDR Yes.
218 23 29 41 CDR Okay, bring it down nice and snug where the poles
are bent somewhat and that's it. Tighten it up.
By the way, are there lock screws on those two
handles you turn in?
PLT-EVA No.
SPT-EVA Okay. Yes, you want it bent. And then you want
the thing so that - -
,_ 218 23 30 09 CDR They don't want any chance of those poles lifting
up. That's their main concern.
5o6
218 23 30 42 CDR So you don't think any thruster could get under
them and negate it's effects so that the TACS
wouldn't work?
CDR ...
218 23 30 50 PLT-EVA I think the thrusters are too far back there. It
looks like the thrusters are - 8 to i0 feet on
the other end of the sail.
218 23 31 05 SPT-EVA They look flexed but, you know, I can't ... on
them very well. But I'm pretty - they look to
be flexed.
218 23 33 i0 CDR Why don't you back up a half a turn or so and then
lock them in from the side as tight as you can?
5O7
218 23 33 18 PLT-EVA Okay, here's one other thing about that darn -
sail - is - it's not a flat sheet. It's a - a -
CDR Let's get in. Let's go. Go ahead and turn it.
Go ahead and tighten both of those side ones
down, Jack, real tight.
218 23 33 41 SPT-EVA Okay, now on the left side there - the side where
the wing is, there's about - at the front end
there's about15 inches-where the parasol
extends out from under the sail and at the back
it's about 3 feet. On the right - the sail
extends over the parasol in the back about a foot
or 2. And on the leading edge, why, the parasol
is - extending beyond the sail about 2 or 3 feet.
And I noticed in the back, way back in the - by
the end of the green pole, that the parasol is
sticking up back there beyond the sail also.
We'll make a sketch of this when we get in, Jack.
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 23 3_ 37 CDR Hadn't been packed in the bag and vacuumed packed
here in this workshop for - several months. Thing's
been up here for 3 months.
CDR Good. That's the best it's ever been, huh? Okay,
Jack. Are you finished there?
CDR Both sides. Okay now, 0wen, send out the boom.
Jack, get down and get the foot restraint; stick
it on the boom.
218 23 35 03 CDR Tight enough to stay, but not too tight that - Owen
can't get them out next time and adjust them.
218 23 35 23 SPT-EVA Okay, they're just - they're not too tight. Which I_
ones do I adjust? The ones on the side? The ones
on the side really aren't the - You have to loosen
'era,but they don't really adjust the thing. This
one right here that pulls it up and down is the
one that adjusts the thing. There's a lot of
tension on it right now because the poles are
bent.
PLT-EVA I see.
218 23 35 38 SPT-EVA And that ain't going to come loose. The only way
you can do it is like, grab a hold of this thing
like so - -
PLT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA I understand.
SPT-EVA Okay, help me get out of this thing, and I'ii give
you the foot restraints back.
509
218 23 36 07 CDR Now, you brought those two - you got two tethers
on your wrist, Jack, right?
CDR And you want to make sure you've got them. We've
got to get all that stuff back in at the end.
•SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA 0h.'
PLT-EVA Yes.
218 23 37 27 PLT-EVA Okay, that's better. Okay, that's flush and locked.
•.. on tether. And you got her, O.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 23 39 03 CDR Remove the collector, the one nearest FAS, grab.
Fold and engage Velcro along edge.
218 23 39 27 CDR When you've done that, do the same thing to the
wrist tether. Use the same wrist tether. Do it
to the next collector, the one with the white
handle, which is the one farthest from the FAS.
Remove collector, fold and engage Velcro along
edge. So in other words, Just do both of them to
the same hook.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 23 39 52 CDR Owen, when he hands you these wrist tethers, this
one wrist tether with the thing, you will take it
and hook - -
SPT-EVA Okay.
PLT-EVA 321?
SPT-EVA And not _too much fighting with your feet there,
you're around the lighting .... pipes or some-
thing like that. What these pipes out here are,
no telling.
218 23 40 33 PLT-EVA Yes, the one with the red handle first, huh?
218 23 40 49 CDR Okay, so you get the one nearest the FAS first,
and the one farthest from the FAS last. Good point.
You made it over Russia, China, Korea, and the
like, and you're out at sea again, gang.
218 23 41 15 SPT-EVA Okay, this is for Don Lind's comment. The color
on the interior is definitely different than the
one that you Just pulled off, Jack. Agreed?
PLT-EVA Yes.
CDR *** looking down in the ocean right now and I see
a patch of very blue water. _-_
218 23 42 29 CDR And emanating from that blue water, sort of like
it's a spring or something, are some waves, big
waves that I can see from here. It's almost
like something occurred.
SPT-EVA Hey, I'ii hold this one foot if you want, there.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 23 44 15 PLT-EVA Now, 0., you got a place to hook these, don't you?
Where these others are. Why don't you take this
tether, matter of fact.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 23 44 42 SPT-EVA Now let me hook this one before I give you the
other one.
SPT-EVA Okay?
218 23 _6 00 PLT-EVA Now, now. I can do it from here. That thing sure
is swinging in the breeze.
218 23 46 53 CDR 90 degrees away from the MDA, from the first clip.
CDE Okay.
218 23 47 17 PLT-EVA The queer thing about this is that right - right
where you want to clip it, there's - there's a
rivet that prevents me from clipping it right, and
that's right where the connection -See this
connection right here, 0.?
SPT-EVA
I can't
-
515
SPT-EVA Yes.
218 23 47 34 PLT-EVA That's right where I want to put it. The only
thing I can do is to - get it off the test patch
a little ways. That's all he really wanted,
wasn't it?
CDR Yes.
CDR Yes.
SPT-EVA ...
PLT-EVA Which drum was it? Were they both on that upper
drum, or does this go on this drum?
218 23 48 33 CDR Yes, they are both on the same drum. The blue
handle one, the farthest from the FAS. It
should be facing generally, as you view it from
your standing position on the FAS, the 90-degree
occluded angle should be sort of towards your
head, in that general direction as opposed to
towards your feet. You know what I mean, Owen.
Generally away from the direction of the ATM.
Or is that right? Maybe I didn't say that right.
Yes, generally away from the direction of the
ATM- Sun.
218 23 49 22 CDR Your head is facing the opposite from the Sun,
right?
516
PLT-EVA Oh, from the Sun end. Yes, from the Sun end of it.
SPT-EVA Okay.
CDR Okay. Lean back and leap into the - l'm finding
it. Manage EV-2 LSU.
PLT-EVA Okay.
218 23 50 14 CDR And then take and put your tether - I mean your
LSU in aft AM. So get in. O_en'll help stick it
in there, and you put it in the aft kM area.
SPT-EVA 0kay.

you want to start stuffing?
PLT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA Okay.
CDR Okay.
218 23 54 29 CDR Jack, while you're there, turn off the TV at the
230 panel.
CDR Okay.
218 23 5h 44 CDR You can hook that to the screen to one of these
lights. That's probably the best thing to try
for, Jack.
PLT-EVA Yes.
CDR Okay.
PLT-EVA TV.
CDR By the way, you got the boom stowed, have you not,
and folded?
PLT-EVA No.
CDR Huh?
PLT-EVA Yes.
PLT-EVA Yes.

218 23 56 40 SPT-EVA Okay. Don't want to get ... Jack here though.

Okay, next, 0.
SPT-EVA Okay.
218 23 57 30 PLT-EVA Hey, I never did check that - those switches ...
the VC.
218 23 57 39 CDR No, you did them right; if you did what I Said,
they're okay. Just - We'll forget it. The thing
drives in ROLL real well. Watch the collector;
watch the collector. There you go. Okay,
VS tree next. And that's it. Okay, you can pass
in the VS tree, Owen. Take a look around and
make sure we got every single thing.
218 23 58 l0 SPT-EVA Okay. There are some wrenches on the top - or not
wrenches, but -
218 23 58 29 CDR Okay, while waiting, start looking at the EVA hatch
and see if you like it - clear of obstructions
and every- all thatbusiness.
522

SPT-EVA ... prettiest one l've ever seen.
218 23 58 39 CDR Okay, then get inside and turn around and make
sure that the hatch dogs are retracted.
218 23 58 57 PLT-EVA Okay. If I can get my head down here again like
it was.

219 00 06 52 PLT You got your hatch dog down, don't you, Al?
SPT Yes.
CDR And then had Jack open the 0WS one and bleed then.
PLT Yes.
SPT Yes.
219 00 07 46 CDR Now what I did was open this one and bleed it ; now
it didn't make any difference, but I shouldn't
have done it.
219 00 07 51 SPT You mean we should have bled in from the workshop?
219 00 08 51 PLT Wait until you guys get the duty on the next one.

219 02 38 00 SPT This is the SPT, with information on ED52 for Dr.
Raymond Gause at Marshall and Miss Judy Miles in
Lexington, Mass. SPT, out.
TIME SKIP
536
219 03 51 12 CDR Okay, this is for the EVA folks and also for the
stowage folks. We've taken all our leftovers from
the twin-pole sunshade and put them in with the
same bag that Pete has got his tools that he used
on the SEVA. By that I mean, the things we got
in there are the two racks for the clothesline.
We've got the extra poles and racks and the sall
bag. We brought the sail bag in and hooked it
up in there, too. Now all those EVA tethers
that we have, which amount to about six or seven
plus a couple photo wrist tethers, plus a couple
place tethers I got up in D-h22 with all the rest
of the EVA equipment. Now, it seems to me that
422 would be a good locker. Just always stick
EVA things in and then if you need them, anything
in the way of EVA, Just go to that locker and it's
probably in there somewhere.

TIME SKIP
219 05 00 34 CDR This goes to Jerry Carr, Bill Pogue, and Bill
Frome, and Ed Gibson. Suggestion: Why don't
you fellows bring up some regular toothpaste, the
kind that you like, instead of using this Nasadent?
You don't need to swallow it. You can brush with
it, Just a little bit of water out of the water
gun, and then spit it in a tow - a towel or a -
a wipe, and then throw it away. And then you
can drink the rest. This Nasadent doesn't feel
like it's cleaning your teeth; it doesn't leave
a good flavor in your mouth. And at the end of

close.
219 17 00 41 CDR Okay, biomed, this is the CDR again. The same
thing happened today as happens every single time.
We get those calibrates down very accurately on
the leg volume measuring system with the can open.
Then we close the can and they change about a
little bit over 0.1, so I have to go back and
adjust them. I'd like to recommend that we change
our procedures so that we do not calibrate the
legbands until we've closed the can. Then we can
calibrate the legbands very accurately. Then we
can go do the high cal and the low cal. As it is,
we're ending up calibrating two different times,
one with the can open, one with the can closed.
Please let us know, if you would, what we should
do. I'm now going to go HIGH CAL and LOW CAL
again, and I know they should pass because I've
Just reset them all.

Everything went okay. I did not start the cuff

we were able to get the data. Don't think it'll
be a bad take, because we have tons of data on
him; blood pressure during the LBNP - few minutes

to do a 131-2 on Jack Lousma, the PLT. And
I set up the vertical shaft at 3.5 and the
biteboard support at M. Wasn't even close.
It's just because he rises out of the chair so
much in zero g, we had to readjust it; so we
readjusted it and it came out to be ll and K.
Now it seems to me you might want to think about
making that DELTA to - to the rest of the people
in the - Jerry Carr's crew, so that - instead of
coming up here and having to waste time figuring
out what to do when you can add a DELTA to it.
It might not be exact, but it would sure be
closer to the ground numbers. Now second subject.
When I ran M092 today, I had my saddle on 9. I
found that it sucked me too far down into the can,
squeezed on my stomach, and cut off the blood.
So I took and put it on about 6, which pushed me
f out of the can a lot more and made it work a lot
better. Now I didn't put it on 6 until after the
run, but it looks to me like a 6 might be a
number certainly better than 9.

220 02 35 26 SPT Debriefing the last ATM run here; we've got about
8 minutes to go on it, but I wanted to get in the
information that Jack Just did a very precise
JOP 12 Delta that I had omitted on the previous
rev. On the end of this one, it was run near the
center of the Sun and very smoothly plus or minus
30 seconds for the precise length of time involved.
And no need to reschedule it because it's been
taken care of for 82B.
220 02 36 14 SPT And give that information please to the ATM plan-
ners, in particular NRL 82 - S082 experimenters.
220 03 09 12 PLT The next line, I went and adjusted the focus again.
I went clockwise to 5/12. Left meter read 80;
right meter read 45. At this point I decided to
adjust left and right so I waited 5 minutes; so
on that same line over on the right, fourth col1_mn,
you should write that the left meter was then
adjusted to 80 and the right meter was adjusted
to 40, which isn't so much of an improvement.
Okay, the next line. Under the focus I went to
6/12 position. Left meter read 81; right meter,
44.
220 03 09 57 PLT I didn't wait and I went right back and adjusted
the focus again. I went clockwise to 7/12 position
That gave the left meter an 82 and the right meter _
a 47. Again I adjusted the focus. I went clock-
wise again to 8/12 position. That gave left meter,
553
220 03 12 12 PLT Okay, the final focus adjustment was 1 - was back
1/24 of a turn counterclockwise. So from the
clockwise 13/12 position, I didn't read the left/
right meter, I Just waited 5 minutes and picked
up Y and X. Got on the left meter, 85; right
meter, 65. That was the final focus setting. Thus
I calculated to be clockwise twenty-five 1/24
turns from its original position. After this I
adjusted the X control to _Aximize the right meter
to get less that 82 percent, which is 3 percent
below its maximum range. Thus my final readings
were: left meter, 82 percent; right meter,
66 percent.

trying to track an object on the ground. Or Just
letting it track by itself. It's not holding on
to any object on the ground. It seems to be
drifting down and to the right - say at about -
150-degree angle from 12 o'clock. And it looks
like to me, on the ground, that it's - at MAX ZOOM,
traversing about a quarter of a mile per second.
And it's a little bit intermittent it gets down
to - about a minus 15 degrees and then the - it
seems to - sometimes track straight down from
there as opposed to that 120-degree angle. I
don't think it's going to cause us to close up
the shop, but it's going to make things a little
trickier. May have been the reason that I
never saw Lake Somerville there. I should have
seen Somerville because the clouds weren't as bad
right there as they were around Rosenberg. And

TIME SKIP
220 19 46 52 CDR Okay, this is the CDR completing his run on the
ATM. Everything went okay. As I reported real
time, I did not get the down-link on at 40, so
I put it on the VTR, where you'll find it. Ob-
viously I didn't roll as suggested, because I
was performing JOP 6 and it wanted a steady roll -
that's right, a steady roll. One thing that sur-
prised me is when I started doing JOP 4A, that
the small prominence was putting out much more
UV than the large one, and also that the - in
DETECTOR 3 - turned out to be right on the limb
of the Sun as opposed to either in on - in from
the limb or out further in on the prominence.
Now that's the point I chose, as I reported
real time, and I assume this is the technique
you would like to have us use as we continue on
what's left of the 50 days? The - I started the
last 56 SHORT - PATROL SHORT - after the CSM time
had decreased past the 350 mark, assuming that
perhaps you would be able to get some ds_a as we
drifted through the atmosphere. I don't know

221 00 53 59 SPT Yes, I see the experiment actually calls for spin-
ning only three webs during the entire experiment.
But now actually we'll, l'm sure, want to get a
few more photographs than that. We'll go ahead
use this Nikon to take photographs for the next
few nights as well. But I think we ought to be
thinking about what else we can do.
TIME SKIP
221 01 41 44 SPT Okay, this is the SPT at the ATM panel. I'm
debriefing the first ATM run. We haven't quite
reachedsunset yet, but we have reachedthe point
where I've got building block 28 started, which
is JOP 4A, step 7. Now there is a question about
how far we should be pointed off the limb and how
far away from the prominence. It's not certain
that on the preceding prominence setting we were
pointed out above the limb at all. As I under-
stand it from the CDR, he maximized DETECTOR
number 3, and that may have maximized just right
at the limb. And as a result, what I've done
here is to go to the prominence which is most
obvious - that is, the place where the prominence
is most apparent in H-Alpha - and then moved
out 25 arc seconds above the limb as measured by
the limb scan of 82B, about 25 seconds - arc
seconds from the limb, and then I had rolled - oh,
I'll give you the roll coordinates here.
221 01 _7 18 SPT SPT with more information for the ATM personnel.
There's no trouble in seeing these prominences
out - 20 to 30 arc seconds above the limb of the
Sun. If it's desired to point at bright material
out of these locations, and if filament 23 is
representative of what we may expect, I think it
is quite reasonable for us to point that far.
The XUV MON can also be used to indicate the
presence of activity. For example, there were
some other prominences that appeared to be as
good as some of the 20 - prominence 23. For
example, there is another prominence almost
directly off the west limb at this particular
time which looks, in H-alpha, a bit more inter-
esting than prominence 23. However, the XUV
MON does indicate that the featured (?) X-ray
wavelength is much brighter down here around
promince 23 than at the - directly at 090 on the
I 585
west limb. So that can also be used to indicate
the presence of bright material if you want to
point further off. And I think that we can do
so with the displays we have on board.
221 Ol 48 54 SPT More information for the ATM Science Room. There
was a question sent up earlier about whether or
not there was any difference in the appearance of
the filament from any Doppler shifts on the east
and west limb - correction, (chuckLe) that's
sunrise and sunset as we go around the Earth's
limb. And my first impression is I haven't
noticed any, but I have also not been able to
give it a very accurate test. I've not had the
time to really look at a prominence and get an
idea and find out what it looks like and then
check it again _5 minutes later. It's possible
that photographs will help on that, but again
we're just uot set up to take that many photographs
right now. On top of that, at least as far as
active region 85 is concerned, the filaments are
changing so fast, they'll definitely change over
a period of 45 minutes. So I can't give you a
good answer to the question now, and I may not be
able to for several days. But my first impression
is there is no obvious difference due to Doppler
shifts or to sunrise or sunset intervals. This
may tell you something also about the H-alpha
filters - where their center band is located.
In fact that may be the reason you asked the
question.

###
DAY 222 (AM) 619
222 02 04 37 PLT Okay, there we are. Let me put this ... Channel B,
right?
222 02 05 29 CDR ! got a start. I think one of the best things that
we have in the workshop are these triangular grid
structures on the floors and ceilings. I don't
think there's any way that you can tell before you
fly just where you're going to need to position
yourself to do different tasks. One, you can't
think through everything just as planned; and two,
p plans change at the last minute. So it means that,
really, all over the spacecraft, you have to
position yourself from time to time to do work.
Sometimes it's possible to use a handhold to do
work. Sometimes it's possible just to float by
and do it. Sometimes it's possible to get your
buddy to hold on to. Most of the time, to do real
constructive work, you've got to be stabilized,
and these triangle shoes seem to be able to do the
job real well. My only thought would be, on a
future space station, that we ought to have a
similar-type device. Now maybe there's an improve-
ment - magnetic shoes or some sort of grippers or
something. But we're going to need a device that
can be used almost anywhere and have it accomplish
the business of tethering the - the man, himself,
so he can do a job. And certainly, the triangles
are one of the best.
222 02 09 28 PLT Yes, I don't think the wetpacks are well designed
either. It turns out that, when you fill them,
like Owen says, they've got mostly air in them,
and the food comes up past the little black line
that you're supposed to cut. When you do cut, why
a lot of the - the food from the inside comes out
and it goes out around the outside of the bag and
gets on your scissors. Also, you can't eat out of
_ them with the short spoon that we've got without
getting your fingers all messy because the spoon
is about as long as the pack is. The only way
you can get around it is to get that super shovel
that comes in with the - co_mand module food and
use it. The extra volume inside the wetpacks also
doesn't permit the food to reconstitute well as it
does in the smaller packs. So I think the wetpacks
are real losers.
222 02 i0 21 SPT I think there are some other things which are
well designed in the spacecraft. I think the
general wardroom eating arrangement, the way that
the food is reconstituted, and - and so forth,
and the table in the center works very well, and
the water guns work good. I have no complaint
about the way the food gets heated in the tray.
I think that's good. And the layout of the pantry
is also good. And it's a super idea to have the
freezer in the pantry there because the frozen
food has kind of been the highlight of the day.
222 02 ii 20 PLT One of the systems that does bug me on the space-
craft is the video tape recorder. A_lytime you
want to video tape something you got to go and
turn on that - you have to go and turn on the
recorder, which is way up in the MDA. So that,
when you've got various scenes that you want to
take down in the workshop, you've got to work from
clear up in the MDA to get them on the tape. And
when you want to turn them off, you'_ got to go
back up there to turn them off. There ought to
he a switch down here somewhere where you can -
down in the wardroom area where you could turn
the video tape recorder off. AI, do you have any
comments?
222 02 ii 57 PLT Oh, by the way, the sleeping bags are really good.
I enjoy sleeping in the - in the sleeping bag.
It's - I think the design is - is very good,
particularly with the - the elastic straps. It
kind of makes you feel like you're laying against
something. And I sometimes sleep on my side, on
my back, on my stomach; so it's kind of like at
home. It's very comfortable and convenient
sleeping, and the temperature's just right also.
222 02 13 20 CDR And then, cleaning the screens you have - from
the fans that blow the air around. Now those
turned out to be pretty easy to clean because
they're all conveniently located. And I think
that's been a very good design effort .... the
only fans we use have the right diameter screens
on them and also have easy access to cleaning,
because it looks like everything is going to
proceed up there, particularly if you have a good
airflow.
222 02 15 20 CDR And then finally, when we're finished, we put them
in some little garbage dispensers. These are
fairly inadequatebecause they just don't hold
enough. You have to empty them way too frequently.
There should be some way to take these and to
stick them right into a solid cylinder of some
sort, but its effect is something like a trash
compressor that wouldn't squirt liquids out.
222 02 15 42 CDR And then, finally, when you get enough of it,
let's say 4 or 5 days' worth or maybe 2 or 3 days'
worth at least, then you take it out, it's got a
cap on it, and you take it over and shoot it down
some trash airlock.
222 02 17 l0 CDR Let's talk a few seconds about the - Let's talk
just a few seconds about the - the camera equipment
and how we've got it. We've got the cameras stuck
in some drawers up here, and they're kind of bang-
ing around loose unless we come up with a homemade
strap.

PLT ..•
PLT ...
CDR Yes.
PLT ...
PLT Yes.
PLT ...
222 02 17 44 CDR Did we want all our equipment ... Well, anyhow,
down here by the window where you take pictures,
we got them hung on springs and all that sort of
thing. It seems to me that we could do a little
bit better about understanding equipment we're
going to use operationally in flight, and then
trying to have some permanent setup where we -
We have something permanent, in a way, for the -
for the 16-millimeter camera on the EREP. And
that's a good way. We ought to have some perma-
nent installations where we can stash these cam-
eras by the ... stations, and there's also ...
instead of having to bring them over to the ...
is build a little box right by the window where
you can lay - reeling it in. We can throw the
things in there and then we can get them out,
instead of having to take them around.
222 02 18 29 PLT One of the things that we've enjoyed the most of
all in here has been the - most use out of I
think, is the window. There's only one of them
626
PLT Yes.
iii _i 2J 37 SPT Bun we really tie ourselves into our feet when-
ever we go in front of the electrical panel. Sc
as far as practical handholds, there is ve_j c!cse
to zero arour,d the whcle spacecraft. I guess
that's our principal means of locomotion. S_ !
just think we had ought to have a better arrange-
ment of handholds the way they do for Y_IA to get
around inside the spacecraft. And l've thought
about where they should go, some place so that
they don't stick out and reduce the amount of
volume available for moving but still are acces-
_ sibleto the hands. I think that would be a sig-
nificant design improvement.
_T
CD Yes.
222 02 21 27 SPT Yes, because once we get to the place where we're
going to work, we than war_t to tie our feet in ss
that we can use our hands to do the work. _[e
don't need the handholds there. Like this example
that I just gave at the electrical panel 61B and
so on - five handholds, but we don't need them
there.

222 02 26 36 SPT Now, let's talk about the humidity, lighting, noise
temperatures, and such.
SPT ...
SPT ...
222 02 27 14 CDR Okay. Let's talk a little bit about the lighting.
It seems to me that the light is dim but adequate,
except for a few times. One, when you want to do
closeup work like repair an item, and whenever that
happens, then you usually have bright light every-
where, but you need some sort of good carry-around
light that you can sit on your head. I think
something like that so that you could - something
like a miner's lamp - maybe not that bright -
maybe that isn't the right name to use with it,
but essentially a helmet-mounted light that you
could go get if you wanted to do some fine work
down in the dark holes where you can't afford
a lot of light and waste the light. Secondly,
we need bright light in certain areas. For
example, we need it in the head. When you're
shaving, you can't see your face. You've got a light
bulb on the ceiling and you can't see the whiskers
that are down on your neck. We need to get some -
some rea - real bright lights for the head, for
example. We need to get some bright lights any
F place that you're going to be looking in mirrors.
And those two items, I think, would make the
lighting seem much, much more useful. Also, if
there's a place where you're going to do a lot of
reading or writing, bright lights are - are really
called for. The kind of lighting we have in here
is probably just enough for the - ...
222 02 28 28 CDR These lights are very safe. You have the feeling
that you're not going to break them if ... flip
out in the air. They're nice and soft. They're
not hard to look at. Everything about them is
good, except we just need a little more brilliance
at some points.
222 02 28 45 PLT Okay, that takes care of the lights. Like we said
noise is not an objectionable factor, to me, at
any rate. Temperature is - been running -What
is it? Around 75 now? 70 to 75.
222 02 29 03 PLT It depends on where you are and where the sensor's
located. This one says 70 over _ head here, so
it's 70 to 75 in the spacecraft, which for me is
quite comfortable. A1 likes it a little cooler,
and Owen likes it all right. I was fairly well
632
222 02 32 46 PLT Something else that we use a lot are these little
spring bungees. We just stretch them across the
lockers and stick everything behind them. So it
looks like to me that if we make one of these things _r_
633
SPT ...
222 02 36 47 CDR And they go long distances. And the trouble is when
you try to find them floating - they're just
hovering, or over in a different place than - than
you left them. It's not at all like on Earth when
you drop something. You know it's around at your
feet, just where you were. Here if you drop some-
thing you don't know if it's at your feet where you
635
222 02 37 29 SPT I think we could use a lot more Velcro around the
spacecraft. Because we were still putting up
patches all around places where we want to put
things. That's one reason we got so many doggone
springs stuck all around because we don't have any
Velcro at hand to hold things to nearby where we
want to work. And I think that's a significant
design - capability.
CDR ...
PLT ...

PLT Yes.

PLT Yes.
222 02 40 56 SPT Okay, we got too many jack power cables and TV
power cables and things strung around the workshop.
We got - I can turn it off. I can turn it off.
And we got to - We'd ought to have those things
built into the wiring someplace so that they could
be plugged directly in the way we plug in other
appliances and things. You ... coil a piece of
wire around it everytime you want to use the DAC
or a tape recorder or a TV camera - or even a ...
blower. After looking around the workshop tonight,
I see all these things strung - 6-foot, 12-foot
cable. And, of course, the reason is they all
arrived here too late. They had these good ideas
after the workshop had already been configured.
They just need to think about it further ahead.
/_- 222 02 hl 43 CDR Also it might be apropos on the cords ... because
there's no way to think of everything and you want
flexibility, is to make sure the cords themselves
have some sort of adhering quality. I don't mean
sticky, I mean every so often on the cord is a
little plug that fits in the holes on the triangular
grid or some sort of little clip hook that snaps
that you could lean above the - ... - leans above
the - lean - just - hook on. That way you could
keep these cords flush. Right now, you have to go
get a separate strap and hang them up and, as a
result, they tend to be droopy .... didn't hear
your ...
222 02 42 27 CDR One last question: How satisfactory have the var-
ious environmental elements of habitability been in
providing a suitable hab - habitat. Lighting,
we've discussed. Noise, we've discussed. Temper-
ature, humidity, and airflow; we discovered all -
discussed all of those. Think we feel that - that
things have been pretty good. Lighting needs to be
improved in some areas. Noise is definitely satis-
factory. Temperature could be cooler. It should
have a better control. This is a minimum control;
you got to take what you get. You really can't
set a control and get anything but what just happens
to be there. H11m_dity:It's a littlebit dry; it

star field 407; ROTATION, 331.4; TILT, 280, 28.0;
and we're 270 seconds. Actually it won't be that
long but that's - We're using the test - We're
using the timer on top of S019. I extended the
mirror at about 000 on ROTATION and TILT. The
pilot had mentioned the time before that when he
set the numbers on the card, which were 358.3 -
I think I can find it here somewhere - zero and
358.3 seems to come in a little bit stiff. He
returned it to zero on TILT and it came in much
better. So I used zero zero and this is something
you'll probably want to tell Karl Henize, and per-
haps we want to change our checklist. But, anyhow,
we're doing what works and that seems to work real

the spider hasn't had anything tc eat for upwards
of a couple of weeks except for the fly that was
brought inside the vial with her, apparently they --
can survive for a number of weeks without any food.
However, they do have to have water because ..., so
the second little vial right here contains a sponge
filled with water to keep her alive. Now Just last
night we shared a little bit of cur supper with her.
I don't think she was intrigued, but right over

222 22 44 25 CDR Okay, This is the CDR. l'm presently running the
ATM. l'm running building block 36, J0P 2A, and -
step 4 - J0P 2A, step 4. What I was looking at
was to see what I had detect - peaked my detector
on. When I had moved the - the pencil beam down
to line 25, I was able to peak it up to around -
5300 on DETECTOR 3. So I feel that we got a pretty
nice bright spot there in active region 85. In
Just a few minutes, when I go to the B section,
I'ii move down the right number of - are minutes,
so that it'll end up pointing right at the same
hot spot, I hope. Everything is going along okay.
222 22 47 24 CDR CDR again for the ATM folks, l'm presently doing
the MIRROR AUTO RASTER, and I noticed that every
time the 55 swings back over to 9.0 it pops the
number in the RASTER COUNTER by one. It's been
doing a complete auto raster and then, instead of
incrementing by one, it does one ... and finishes
the line. Everything else is okay. It's sweeping
s _ normally.
222 22 52 17 CDR Okay, this is the CDR for ATM again. I maximized
the detector and it's 0832, STOW position, and I
got _t up to 5300 again. Now that is a little bit
to the right of - or inboard toward Sun center of
the - the brightest H-alpha point. Now I did not -
I got the roll fairly good for 82B. I wouldn't
say it's perfect. And also it - it seems to be
that 82B may he pointed slightly to the right, but
that is the maximum DETECTOR 3 position and so
I guess that's what you want. If it had been an
82B shot, I think l'd have moved Just a little
bit to the left. Roll, I think, is satisfactory.

223 14 31 45 CDR Okay, this is the CDR and I'm doing 487-3A. I'm
going to cover each of the items as stated here
and give it a rating and then talk about it a
little bit. OWS fireman's pole - Incidentally,
this is for the 487 PI. Fireman's pole - OWS
fireman's pole - fireman's pole is an excellent .....
device. We used it for a while; it seems to have
an advantage over - I can - Wait a minute, let me
give it a rating. I would give it an excellent
rating. I don't think any improvements are need-
ed. I've noticed that the stiff fireman's pole is
much better than the limber strap one, because it
allows you to, at any moment, push off in a direc-
tion you want to go. When you're on the strap,
there's really no easy way to push off, and a lot
of times you have to kind of move back and forth
and get some momentum up across the strap, much
like a bow string, and then let go. Further, the
strap does not have the ability to allow you to
rotate around it to point the direction you want.
Let's say your feet are facing the plus-Z and you
really would like to face the minus-Z. Now the
fireman's pole does do that.
223 14 33 O0 CDR The fireman's pole aids you also in taking big
packages up and down and certainly to be - to learn.
We do not have the fireman's pole or the strap in
at the moment, haven't had it in since the first
week and we found it no trouble to launch through
just the space there from one place to the other.
In fact, we find it more convenient than the pole.
663
223 14 33 47 CDR OWS dome and wall handrails. I would give them a
poor. Not because the handrails themselves are not
good; their design is probably excellent. It's the
problem that we've put them in the wrong place.
Handrails, in a station like this, look to me like
they're going to be used merely in traffic areas
to - get something to grab on to change your direc-
tion. For example, a handrail near a hatch
opening, near the ceiling in the experiment compart-
ment or the floor in the forward compartment would
be perfect. It would allow you to grab them and
zip in. Presently, we're Just using the edge of
the hatch, which works okay. But it's perhaps con-
S L- ceivablethat, if we didn't have this triangular
grid where our fingers grab real good, we would be
at a loss there.

223 17 37 48 CDR This is for the ATM group; CDR Just finished the _
pass - 16:58. It went entirely nominal. I ran
54 GRATING IN for all the steps of the chips of
Step 2, and then I moved the GRATING back out
again, and ran - that on step 1. Not a lot to
report. It's difficult over at the - target 85
to find a special bright point. It's so flat
that it only appears on the scope as a vertical
line, and that vertical line is about the only
thing you can work _th. I've maintained the
roll you suggested of a minus 10800 for the
first - couple of chips. And then back down to
chip B where you wanted us to roll for 82B again,
I rolled slightly, maybe l0 degrees or something
like that. I tried to Just get the difference
for you. And I also moved the 82B on H-alpha 1
crosshairs slightly towards the limb, and - but
still remained in a bright plage to try to get
you some change in data points there. However,
it just wasn't - there isn't that much variety
out there at the limb at the moment.
223 17 39 19 CDR And then I moved that active region over to the
other side of the limb. And - and - That is,
I rolled to minus 796, and then - the - step 1.
Now it's conceivable that you wanted the other,
but I looked at the - XUV MON and felt that
you probably really wanted active region 85
over there, out from under the pylon, and that 's
why I put it there. That's the end of debriefing.

is Fomalhaut. There's Fomalhaut right over there.

time - make sure we account for any slip of the
gears. Going to get the assembly stabilized

223 18 06 O0 PLT Well, I'm going to put some filters in here, and
see if I can make the picture out the window
look the same as - the picture in the sextant
looks the same as the one out the window. Oops!
I can't see anything now. I don't w_mt that one.
Ah - both of the straight line-of-fl:[ght - sight
filters are too darn powerful. Can't; see
anything when I use them; let's try the rain line
of sight here. Oh, that one's too powerful; try
this one. All these filters, when you use them
are - you Just can't see anything at all.
223 18 07 30 PLT Hey, can I get you guys to turn out the lights on
the floor, for a minute, until I can get located,
please? Oh, boy, I Just really can't find them
in the sextant here. No, Just so there's no
glare on the floors reflecting up on the window.
Please. Well, and some in the dome, too, be-
cause they reflect on this floor.
223 18 09 58 PLT No. That ain't too good. If you had a piece of
paper or something, it'll work better. I'll tell
you, you can see the stars a lot better through

223 18 l0 18 PLT I don't know how it works, but you sure can.

tethers are good. The only disadvan-zage that I

the way they sometimes - sometimes difficult to
get them off your wrist to work them. They're so
difficult, in fact, that you tend to once you have
it off your wrist to leave it floating free and
this could be - a dangerous situation in EVA and
certainly gives you an additional - or blinds and
hooks and things going around in front of your eye
which, you know, gives you added trouble when you're
trying to - in your rather clumsy glove and suit
work on an EVA problem. How we can do it, I don't

can be wrapped once around the wrist and then snapped

that.
223 19 28 3h CDR Handwasher - good, except that the seal is rather - _-_
loose and - it bypasses soapy water Just at the
wrong time. It'll work i0 times - by the way, I
would give the urine collection - I've already
classed it. The handwasher, I would give only an
adequate. Handwasher - it works right three or
four times. The next time you put in a - a wash-
cloth and try to work it - it bseks up. It squirts
out the sides and gets all over the ceiling. This
is discouraging and requires time to clean and
seems to me we could have doublesealed it and done
away with all that trouble. Another problem with
the handwasher is it only operates - By the way
I'm talking about the hand squeezer _t the moment.
I'm not talking about the squirter. The squirter
I'd give an excellent. It puts out hot water in
the right direction. But let's go back to the - to
the squeezer.
223 19 29 27 CDR The squeezer then has small holes at the bottom,
so when you're squeezing washrags - And you can-
not squeeze towels, and that's a disadvantage.
In fact, if those holes get jammed up, I think
that's what causes the backflow and also prevents
drying the towel. It needs more screens with
thickermesh on the bottom than Just a couple of _-_..
-- 699
223 19 31 54 CDR Drying stations. They seem to dry the towels ade-
quately although they float around. I have the 1
feeling that I could use more and wish that they
were further apart, but once again that's a con-
straint of space. In any event, they seem to
work real well. The shower we have not used. Give
you an evaluation later. Personal hygiene kit.
I like it so-so. I think that - taking things out
of out of the little kit all the time is a pain.
We should have attached Velcro to each item and
then we could have taken the ones out of the kit
that we wanted, put in our - with all the Velcro
that's in there, which is an excellent idea. I've
done some of my items that way, but some I have not.
And that way you could reach in there and get them
without taking out the box. Another thought on
the box is that it's way too safely designed to
prevent things floating out. It's got two inner
flaps, two outer flaps. What should have been done
or maybe what could be done now is to take the
scissors and remove the inner flaps. That leaves
the outer flaps. Then when you want to get in it,
Just flip them open and you're right in the box.
Having two additional flaps doesn't keep the items
particularly in there. All it does is make you
have to work harder to remove them. These re-
straints are definitely - eliminate that - if it
were possible.
223 19 33 12 CDR Let's talk a few minutes about the wardroom table.
The wardroom table has the advantage of being the
main meeting place of the - of the flight. It's
nice to sit around it. It's convenient. The
handhold - I mean the legholds, the foot - leg re-
straints, the footholds seem to be very good about
keeping you in position. And the general layout
of the table is good. I think that the idea of
having hot water and cold water right in the middle
where everyone can get at it equally is good. I
think maybe we should of had some sort of same
thing there where everybody could get at his food
Just as easy. We've got the food in the pantry.
And the pantry idea is good if you put everything
in there and then you go get the ones you want out.
Now we've got everything that dispensed in indi-
vidual - type drawers. And we could have very
simply put each person's food near him. Now I'm
not in favor of doing that. I'm in favor of having
f 701
223 19 36 52 CDR Water gun seems adequate, fits good, puts out the
right amount out and it's easy, too. I'd have to
admit the water gun's good. I would tend to make
a bigger rubber flap on it from the point of view
that every once in a while you hit your teeth
with it. And it's possible to bust your teeth
if you're not careful and that would be a bad
thing. There's a lot of mass there and you really
need to have the front part of it - not have that
metal front area with the rubber tip. It should
probably be all rubber.
223 19 43 35 CDR Trash airlock, sorry design. And the reason it's
sorry -
I- 7o5
223 19 45 09 CDR Okay, let's get back to the trash airlock; poor
I design. One, because there's a single-point
failure that could drive you crazy. It needs -
we need much more effort on trash disposal at the
space station. I never realized what a total
amount of time it takes to work the problem.
Having to put them in - in bags is time consuming
and troublesome. There ought to be a way where
we could Just stick them in, compact the trash and
shove it out as a big block, wherever we want to
shove it. This whole concept of bagging them and
handling them is - is poor. The whole thing needs
to be a complete revision. Also, the - the trash
airlock needs to be shapgd like a reverse cone,
so that there's no chance of putting more in it
than - than - and it will stick. If you put it
in like a reverse cone, if it did expand slightly,
you'd push it - it would tend, as you push it,
to go to less and less friction. Also, the little
area there where the plate slides back - the
bubble plate at the bottom swings - the little
eyelid swings out. That's an area where stuff
F can get caught. This whole trash,we - overlooked
and has got - got to give it a lot more thought
on the future space stations, because trash is
going to continue to increase and we don't want to
pack everything so expensively and try not to use -
only Just what we have to which we should - should
try to pack to get away from that as we have on
ships. So we're going to have to do something
better about the trash. This is a rudimentary
device. I don't know what we would do without
it, though.

223 23 14 26 PLT But the triangle shoe cleats are great and I
haven't used the conical shoe cleats at all. I
haven't tried them. I might mention that one
place you really need some handholds is right
around the film vault. There's nothing there to
hang on to. That film vault is Just a big square
object and you Just can't grab on. You don't
have any triangular shoes on and you're pretty
much out of luck in that film-vault area.
Frequently go up there with our socks on late at
night and put cameras away early in the morning,
before you get your triangle shoes on, and it's
a real unhandy place to be without handholds or -
or foot restraints.

223 23 26 34 PLT Food cans, they - they're working all right, too.
I noticed, however, that when you take a can
out of the freezer, like frozen meat or ice
cream, and you immediately try to tear the lid
off, why instead - what happens is the little key
pull off without tearing the lid off. I guess
temperature's down there sufficiently so a little
force on there will peel the aluminum and the key
comes off. I noticed that if you let them warm
up a little bit, why, they work better.
CDR Jack.
223 23 34 30 PLT Okay, here is the PLT back on 487; finish uo this
miscellaneous stuff. Sleep restraint, we
f
discussed.
223 23 34 45 PLT The vacuum cleaner works very well. We got a lot
of vacuuming to do because that screen up there in
the dome gets real dirty, in addition to some of
fans in the - in the }_A and the fan in the W -
the filters in the _C. The mesh is too big in
the mol sieve area to collect anything so there is
no sense in worrying about that. Everything gets
caught there in the solids trap.
223 23 35 59 PLT Wardroom tables for noneating uses, don't use them
much for anything but eating. So the lid's always
stowed up there in the top. Once in a while, we
put the lid down on the food table - food trays,
and do some checklist changes and stuff on them
and you always have to hold things down. So if
there's some kind of little spring or something
over top of the - the some kind of checklist or
paper retention device on top of the wardroom
table, why it would be a plus; it's desirable, but
not mandatory.
223 23 3700 PLT Portable fans - portable fans; we got two of them.
They work very good. One of them we got in the
workshop air into the cooler MDA area. It runs
all the time, night and day. Doesn't make any
noise. Puts out a fairly good airflow, and -
and doesn't seem to get hot. Those portable fans
are made for long life. One other port - portable
fan we use is the one we hook on the ceiling in
the experiment compartment to point at the guy
who's riding the bike to keep him cool. And it
works very well for that purpose.

224 15 48 41 PLT I don't know now, I've moved off it. But it was
banging. Okay, now we're taking data at point 7.
Looks - 7 down. Turns out that after the maneuver,
the Moon was centered in the VTS at about 2 DOWN
and zero LEFT/RIGHT. Therefore I, took my first
point at 3 gimbal angles up and my seventh point
at 7 gimbal angles down which is 5 degrees either
_- side of the limb. But I find that VTS at the
limb - at either limb, after the maneuver, the
UP/DOWN still read DOWN 2. That's where point 1
is going to be at and was at UP, 3, point 7 and
DOWN 7.
224 15 49 39 PLT Well, I'ii give you time to do that. Don't worry.

224 23 20 44 PLT One other thing about the 1 arc second jump, the
MIRROR AUTO ta]kback went from barber pole to
gray at a minus 947 arc seconds, LEF2/RIGHT. It
turns out that going to the right from there,
that there's no way to get a 946. I tried for
5 minutes and never got it. And every other pass
I made through that way in several mini-auto
rasters, I never got it in either. It always
Jumps from 947 to 945 and 945 to 947. Additional
work to do on this rev was to get the J0P 2C,
step l, building block 2, which was omitted
from the pass before. So that's been done. So
far the only thing we got to make up is the -
... calibration on 82B, 2-minute and 40-second
exposure only. And the alignment 55 offset to
limb - coalign on the rev before.

going to start at 00:51.
225 00 44 45 CDR Time now is 00:44. I've got the ROTATION to 79.1,
the NuZ on the pad was minus 4.1, as measuredin

That's a correction of 1.6. So I took 280.7 and
subtracted from it, and got 79.1. TILT, 23.1;
79.1, 23.1, field 819. And the first one's
going to be a prism in, 270 exposure.
225 00 54 35 CDR Okay. Stand by. We're coming to the end of this

in the middle of the workshop, got nice rate
going. He's got a little bit of translation
downward but not much. And a l_ttle bit of yaw --
to the right - or roll to the right; a little
roll to the right, but not bad. He may have
started that way, I don't know. Okay, he's
stopped his yaw to the left. He's now pitching
up. You got - you got room.
225 14 43 40 PLT The debris is flying all over the workshop. He's
pitching up. Looks llke he might have a little
bit of yaw to the right in there. He continues
to yaw to the right. Here's a 90-degree pitch
with about a 30-degree right yaw. He's stabiliz-
ing it now. Now he's going to roll right.
Correction, he's yawing right. He has a trans-
lation going. His yaw right looks very clean,
however. Now he's stopping his yaw right, he's
still with the down translation. Okay, he's
going to roll to the left now.
225 14 45 55 PLT Okay. He's - what attitude - what mode are you

Okay, he's facing 404. The attitude is very
stable, he's floating toward the lockers a little
bit, he's about a foot and a half way. Now he's
stopping his translation. And now he's made his
maneuver to the right to fly around to 432. He's
maintaining 6 to 8 inches from the dome lockers
with the front end of the arm rest. His attitide
is very stable, he seems to be able to translate
around it well. Looks like he's - pretty much

again in CMG, maintaining 6 to 8 inches from
the locker with the leading edge of the arm rest,
or hand control. Seems to have no difficulty
whatsoever. Seems to translate fast - one dome
locker in about 6 seconds. Okay, his attitude is
very stable. He give it an occasional burst of
aft translation to stay away from the dome
locker. Maintains a very good tangential profile
as he goes around - Just maintaining at - directly
facing the dome lockers at all times. Flying now
very close - 4 to 6 inches from them. Now he's

225 15 46 31 PLT And a left roll gives a yaw to the right. Now
pitch up gives a pretty pure rotation, and it
gives no translation. How about the pitch down,
AI, did you ever do that? A yaw left gives a
slight pitch up and a slight r_ght roll. A yaw
right gives a slight roll to the right.

225 16 04 20 PLT Okay, the first comment he has is that you can

end of message.
TIME SKIP
225 17 04 42 CDR This is the CDR, I'm getting ready to debrief the
run 509-1 that Jack and I made this morning.
Then I'm going to use the debriefing guide on
page 35-1 - starting at the beginning of page
"_ 35-1, and go from there. We tried to debrief as
we Went along, and so some of the items that I
may give you will be repeated here. Also, I may
forget to repeat here that are on the tape. And
further, some I may mention here that aren't -
are not on the tape. So the two, the tape during
the run and this debriefing session, will con-
stitute the 509 information. This information
goes to Lou Ramon, EdWhitsett, primarily, and
anyone else that's concerned with 509. Bruce
McCandless, of course, was the - followed this a
long, long time and would probably like a copy
also. He's the co-PI, says Jack Lousma.
225 17 07 h9 CDR DIRECT was simple; I had the feeling that I'd fly
much, much more in DIRECT than I normally would
have - or did in the simulator. I felt that the
machine operated Just a little bit more spritely
in DIRECT than the simulator did. I would put
in a pulse and the machine would move instantly
and naturally, but it seemed to move out at a
mas - faster rate - than in the simulator so I
felt that I overcontrolled more in DIRECT than
I'm used to.
225 17 12 19 CDR I - I'd quit doing the air-bearing, too, maybe one
or two and that's about it. It Just doesn't do
you any good. It's - it's - the thing flies so
simply up here and it flies so much like the -
the - the vehicle - like any space vehicle that
is - except for baseline data, if that's needed,
for - add if you need baseline data - my goodness,
maybe you're going to have to do it but - I think
that the training on the air-bearing facility is
a complete waste of time, both for handheld
maneuvering unit and the rest of it. Maybe you -
if you want to do good handheld maneuvering unit
evaluations, you got to go to Denver. But then I
would limit this to maybe 1 day of - one-half a
day of flying CMM - CMGs, RATE GYROS, DIRECT.
Quit it' Can it' And then get on to the hand-
held maneuvering unit, the only thing that's
really a challenge. I'll talk more about that
later.
225 17 13 15 CDR Should any maneuvers be changed for the next 509
run? Well, I don't think so. It's going to be
fL 815
225 17 14 09 CDR Finally, if you get headed that way, let's say
you're a little bit to the left of target and
you're trying to get a right correction, you're
trying to put it in, you're trying to push -
f you're putting it in trying to correct,putting
it in and trying to correct, and all the sudden
you notice it is going to the right. And you
say I've got to stop it. You've really got to
lead it. It takes a lot of gas because it Just
now wants to keep going to the right. It's a
case of - of momentum - of the umbilical - iner-
tia of the umbilical and the fact that it's giving
you a constant torque we have the position you'd
like to go in each moment now. You can take the
umbilical and put it somewhere or you - if you -
fly up to a point and stay there, and let go, it
doesn't try to move you too much then. It does
a little.
225 17 16 26 CDR Now you translate aft, you get a pitch down and
a yaw left. Now control in yaw is difficult to
discern for the simple fact that it's hard to
get to a zero stabilized position to start the
whole bast game off. Then when you push on the
thrusters, it sometimes tends to make it more
obvious to you that - what wasn't obvious when you
were standing still. As you translate along, you
tend to see yourself in motion. Now maybe what
I got to do next time is go without thrusting for
a longer period of time before I translate, and
try to decide Just what it is doing and then go
from there.
225 17 17 05 CDR We know those are what's ... It's close, but not
quite. Now let's take some of the attitude maneu-
vers. Pitch up or down seems like a pure m_neuver.
Yaw, left ; you get a pitch up and a roll right.
Yaw, right; I think you get a pitch down, but I'm
not sure, and a roll left; I'm pretty sure - I'm
very sure about that. Roll right, you get a yaw
left ; and roll left, you get a yaw right.
817
225 17 17 24 CDR Now on these rolls, the back - the ... doesn't fit
very tight in roll. If you pitch up, it - you
feel it move around in your back, but not trouble-
some. Same thing with yaw. But when you do a
roll, it really moves around your back. Then
later - during the run, I made a comment one time,
"When I yawed left, a long, big burst, it tended
to make - I yawed right, it made me roll left."
By that I mean, as I yawed right, in a hurry, I
wasn't - I had my hand relaxed on the hand
controller and it caused my hand then to move into
a left roll position, or the hand controller moved
out from under my hand towards the right, which
gave a left roll. Then it fired left roll, which
•.. that out. Now that was the only time that
oc curr ed.
225 17 18 l0 CDR During the single-axis cals, DIRECT MODE, did you
notice attitude rates increase - attitude change
about an axis rather than axis commanded? I
discussed it - which axis and which direction.
Well, I will say that it is not troublesome; it
'f- hasn'tbeen.
225 17 18 25 CDR Did you notice any rate change during CMG SAT?
Well, we had several in roll. And then I probably
had a few others I didn't pay attention to. But,
intuitive feeling would be no, I did not notice
any rate change; and if I did, it wasn't signifi-
cant. I'ii try and notice it next time. I don't
think that's an important thing, but I could be
wrong.
225 17 18 45 CDR Could you hear or feel the CMGs locking solenoids
when caging or uncaging? The answer: I could
hear all sorts of noise, but I couldn't feel them
too well .... and also didn't hear them really
go click. Mostly, I was looking at the light.
225 17 19 04 CDR Could you hear the CMG gimbals whine during limb
motion? Didn't do limb motion. During attitude
commands? I'll tell you what I did notice. While
I was flying close to the object, I did notice
that I would tend to move my legs aft. If I
was flying out in the middle, I'd tend to let
them float forward. I only contacted the vehicle
one time - or two times. And I could have pre-
f_ vented it. I just felt that I just was going to
818
225 17 20 06 CDR Did you notice any leg lag during rotation? Not
particularly. What I did notice was that I wanted,
every once in awhile, to kick my legs because,
you know, you Just llke to move around in this
zero g. You're tired of being still. And if you
did not move, I noticed it would fire a thruster
and the vehicle would move, and so I quit it.
But there was a desire to kick the legs around,
although I didn't notice any particular firing or
attitude excursions with leg motions during firing
itself.
225 17 21 05 CDR Let's try the 0WS factors. Did you notice atmos-
pheric drag in rotation - translation? The answer:
no, don't think it's noticeable. Went up and flew
near the vents and everything else. Didn't see
it. Now if I went up to a spot where the fan was
blowing, which there isn't in the upper air, I'm
pretty sure that I would feel it. The closest I
came to something like that was up to the - sitting
in the top of the duct where the suction - Just
_ 819
225 17 21 35 CDR Did you notice the 0WS air velocity perturbating
your translations? No. Your stationkeeplng?
No. Did you notice any 0WS rotations during
translation? We've already discussed it. Did
shadows provide useful motion cues? Not much in
the way of shadows up here because lights are all
around. Motion cues, you got a billion.
225 17 21 55 CDR Also, one of the nice things was, we're used to
laying on our back, on our head, and all that other.
And it wasn't like flying the maneuvers at Denver
where you got on your back; you tended to become
disoriented. Here, you might not do as well,
just because you're used to operating upright.
But the cues were not bad, and I didn't feel that
that was significant.
225 17 22 56 CDR Could you t_]k to the observer during the run?
So-so. If so, would you prefer to have the
observer read the procedures instead of using the
Cuff Checklist? No, I thought the Cuff Checklist
was a fine little thing. It worked well and you
ought to keep it.
225 17 23 ll CDR Did making compensating motions with the left arm
significantly reduce the HHMU attitude disturb-
ances? I didn't try, doggone it, because I
never trained doing compensating motions with
left arm. But I'll sure give it a go sometime,
820 _
225 17 25 34 CDR Another thing about the HHMU is, you're able to
get very small pulses. But I couldn't discipline
myself to do it because I was maintaining pretty
good control with big ones. And there's that
constant desire to get on with the program.
You're just kind of tooling around out in the
middle, and you're saying, "Why am I here? Why
don't I go do something? Why don't I get over
there? Go do this maneuver." That means you
tend to want to go do something in rotation or
translation. So you - to do it, you got to put
it in thrust.
225 17 27 _9 CDR Well, any time you moved fast it was bothersome,
but you could always correct it. Much controll-
ability, much authority, much - everything was
good. Let me think a few minutes and I'll give
you the rest.

realize that Owen had _lready checked them again
yesterday. And I feel that his work is about as
good as can be done. And I Just checked them and
verified that they're still the way they were when
he did them. But I made no further corrections
to the alignment which he made yesterday.
226 00 13 46 PLT S082B - had a pecularity with it, also; during the
building block 2 1 thought that it stopped, and
that it went back to READY. Although I may have
been erroneous in that observation because shortly
thereafter, I looked back and there it was in
OPERATE. And it was hung up in OPERATE. It was
hung up with the SHORT WAVELENGTH on frame 1016,
and I must have waited for 5 to 8 minutes for
that thing to go off. I thought l'd inadvertently
restarted it but I was not in time; it was verified
to be in AUTO. So in order to press on I hit the
STOP stitch - switch and we got a READY light, and
after waiting to see it work, finding the frame -
That's the 3-minute, 20-second time exposure after
that, and so it looks like it was a one-time event
as far as I'm concerned. I don't know if you've
seen this before; detector 5 keeps popping off all
the time, and so we turned detector 5 off on
building block 36A.

The prominence is a - has a nice arch to it. And
although I could not see it in H-alpha, the cen-
ter part of the arch, Owen Garriott pointed out
that - that it was probably there because we
could see either end. Because of this, I moved
up and optimized detector 3. Which got some very
strong emissions up to the level of about 2300,
as opposed to down at the base of the - the
prominence where the levels were in 2 or 300 range.
I'm not parallel to the limb at this point, but
aligned more or less where I think the prominence
is traveling.

as possible, my right elbow - my feet locked and
my right elbow on the wall, the stadimeter leaned
up against the window. It's somewhat difficult
to put all the horizons together because the
horizons are not that well defined. Seems less
well defined in the outer - parts of the reticle
than it does in the middle.

going to put the star on the night horizon. Give
you a mark when it occurs. And you've selected
stars 2 and 4 for me. And I think we might be
able to get along with that. We'll see. I'll
perform a zero bias sighting to begin with. The
diopter setting is a minus 1.25 and the temperature
is reading 72 degrees at the present time. We'll
do our zero bias sightings on Fom_lhaut.

thought maybe we'd be able to see this horizon bet-

region 86. It's much brighter than anything else
on the Sun. It might be a little bit brighter
than it was yesterday, as a matter of fact. There
is a dark belt through the equator that is dark.
There is a band of longitude - about h5 degrees
of longitude from the west limb extending - that
ought to be from the east limb, extending from the
Equator up to the pole. Both the caps of both the

fact is we can see a number of bright spots still

window is because of the way the horizon looks•
I'm matching the top of the - As I look out the
window I can see that the lower horizon and that
the top of the clouds are not continuous from
one horizon to the other across the total

continuous is the demarcation between the blue
f- and the black. So what l'm going to do is line
up those.

226 17 12 43 PLT Well, the 1.0 filter doesn't help. I doubt the
1.6 will be any better. No, it's not. Filters
don't seem to be doing any good. Yes, that
night horizon is very diffused. Going to have
to pick a point that seems like a comfortable
place for that star to nestle under the horizon.
I look off to my right. It's even less well
defined and that's where Achernar is. But I
think we'll proceed with Achernar and - I'm
going to have to find him first. He must be up
there about - _0 degrees. Old Sparkly's leaving
the spacecraft .... by thespacecraft. They
don't have any rapid velocity. They're 8.11

a couple of inches per second. They're not -

I used my flashlight. Turn on the flashlight
when it was dark. Turn on the flashlight. The

disembodied floating line - disembodied from the
background than it ever has before. It may have
been because I kept my face in the 6oggles for
the whole time, eyes closed, everything a little
bit more precisely according to protocol. I did
notice on one or two occasions the line tended
to move up down or appeared to move up or down,
instead of always left or right. I also noticed
that very frequently the line will oscillate

Just finished that pass, and I've already de-
briefed everything about it, either real time or
previously on chan A. 0nly one thing I didn't
bring up is at the end of - my assigned schedule
as long as I was on the filament, I looked at the
shopping list and ran an 82B WAV_W,_GHT, SHORT,
exposure 5 minutes. I then shifted over to
prominence 29, attempted to locate the high UV
energy I was picking up previously. Could not
do that. And so I ran a 56 PATROL, NORMAL. Now
before the PATROL, NORMAL was complete, we'd de-
scended below the 400-kilometer level. Also ran,

toward going to sleep. Approaching that asymptotic
[sic]. And that's about all.
226 23 26 45 PLT And we'll pick up on the same position on the next
rev. I'll get positions 4, 5, and 6. Now th@re's
somewhat of an ambiguity in the J0P there. The
little picture that we have before us on the 55
limb-scan diagram appears to me to be written for
a situation where you have the - where you're looking
at the right limb of the Sun as you see it on the
monitor. That is, on the monitor the Sun would
be on the left and the picture's on the right.
Looks like to me if you go to the other limb, why
that picture doesn'twork any more. And so there's
somewhat of an ambiguity in that picture. It works
okay for this particular pointing because we were
working in the manner I described; however, I guess
we'll have to watch it for - if we ever use it on
the - with the Sun pointing such that it fills the
right side of the monitor, rather than the left.

which Just finished at 01:O0 .... to the the
ATM planning group. And not too much to say about
the run. It went about as normal except that a
couple apologies are in order. First of all, to
AS&E for taking some extra exposures that they
didn't really want. I didn't notice that there
was a 54 omit on my pad until they called it up
further down. So I can't see that any particular
transient occurred. So probably you got that infor-
mation from a preceding orbit there, and I'm sorry
about that.

I'm comparing XUV M0N photographs taken - let's
see, about 8 hours apart day 226 at 16:35 and day
227 at 01:00. Now the bright points that appear

227 02 17 13 SPT That lap strap is essential for the use of the
fecal collector. I wouldn't want to try it with-
out. The orientation is such that you do need to
grab hold of the handhold to keep from what you
would call floating up in one g, but it's toward
the overhead of the compartment. The handhold is
a necessary aid when using the fecal collector,
but the strap is absolutely essential. WMC hand
washer handrail- well, shucks, I don't know.
Hadn't thought that much - leave it there if you
want. The whole hand washer, as I talked before
is - needs to be re-thought through. Ceiling
handrail - didn't know there was one. Light-duty
foot restraints, lousy. The whole idea of foot
restraints in the head needs to be re-thought
through. Three of them are in front of the urine
trays where they either mess up the trays or have --
to be removed as we've done, and the whole idea
of foot restraints in there is very poor.

use. Tool caddy I've never put on; get along with-

those around a little bit for cooling various
things. Off-duty equipment kit, we got a tape
recorder stashed around; everything else we've
never used. Garments - I need more socks; that's
the only thing. I should have thought to bring
some up. All I brought up was some shorts which
I probably can use, but I should have brought
some socks up. Light baffle, haven't even put it
up. That privacy curtain I presume is the one in
front of each of our compartments and they're very
useful to keep the light out. Zowie, I am all the

227 02 37 36 PLT For the ATM world, one additional comment about
that filament number 28. It's, as I said, trying
to pass over the llmb and it's very difficult to
see. The other thing I noticed about it was that
there was no significant activity above it off the

this decimal point, or Just the fact that yo_ skip
a space. But it sure makes a lot easier to read,
_-- simplerto set. I think the only other thing that
needs to be on this pad, right at the top, is the
earliest time you can begin taking pictures.
Because all I've been able to find is the time
that if you don't start by that time you're not
going to be able to finish by sunrise. I'd request
that maybe at the top up there, when you're talking
about Nuz, could you say maybe the next line under

Now it was probably when he had a hold of the handle-
bars. Another time he had relaxed his grip there;
it was 198 over 53. At the third stage, our MANUAL
was 200 over 60. The ESS, when he was not gripping
it, showed 209 over 52.

There's really not a lot to say. It came off on
schedule, as I reported real time. I went to the
coordinates that the ground passed me, which were
LEFT, 410 ; UP, 250. I looked around for remnants
of an active region. Found some, at least what
I thought were some, at LEFT, 267, and UP, 314.
I went to that area and performed the JOP building

227 16 34 47 CDR This is the CDR on chan A. I'm not sure who this
goes to, but it's a DT0 called TEM i. I performed
it a few minutes ago, and l'd like to give you the
results. I'ii read you the temperatures from top
to bottom. Forward compartment A, rear of freezer,
67.0. B, rear of logic control box, 70.7. Now
I wasn't really sure of the logic control box but
I - it's behind the freezer and mounted on the
wall. That's where I think it was. Okay, those
were these three pipes. The first one, by the way,
was a rail running up the side of the freezer and
then one runs down the left side one. I picked
the midpoint of the right side one. It was a pipe
and I took the point Just below the rear of the
logic control box. Now it's conceivable since the
others say, "On heat pipe" that this really means
I should have taken it to - at the rear of the
logic control box. I think I'll go up there and
do that. But you can't get very far in behind
that flap. It's stiff and not a reasonable thing _--_
to do. Forward compartment floor, on heat pipe
below solar SLA, 74.1. On heat pipe to right of
VCS duct 3, 71.0. Experiment compartment on heat
pipe to the right of VCS duct number l, 70.7.

227 16 51 47 PLT MABK. 31.567. Bad news. Make sure we got the
right star. We sure do.
227 16 55 22 PLT MARK. Last mark, 31.628. Well, I'll give you a
couple more. I have got Just a couple more
minutes.
227 16 55 56 PLT MARK. 31.642. The diner your star, the more
you're ac - accreat - the less your accuracy is -
Not the more. Diphda's a pretty dim star. Don't
have any good stars for this.
TIME SKIP
227 18 04 03 PLT Okay, the run was begun at 17:09. We got all the
building blocks accomplished; all the instruments
worked properlyand, you know, we had 54 running
then in building block 18 and in your change to
pad had requested that we also omit it, although
we hadn't transmitted it properly up here. And
we got it off on your call. Thank you for that.
Other than that, everything went along okay.
227 18 15 19 PLT Okay, space fans, this is the PLT again on chan-
nel A. We're doing some more of this T002 stuff.
And right now we're going to get some star-to-moon
on Diphda and the one and only Moon that's up there.
And according to my little timepiece here, the time
is going to be 18:15:45 on my mark.
227 18 17 19 PLT Okay, lets change that diopter to minus 0.5 for a
while. See how that goes. It might give me a
little sharper Diphda.
227 18 28 18 PLT I want you gays to know that after I make all these
settings, I want you to be telling me where I am
and what my orbit is after every set.
227 18 28 29 PLT I want to see if this works. It's a good eye test,
I'll tell you that.
f .... 227 18 29 49 PLT MARK. 31.163. Give you a couple more, and we'll
call it the end of set 3.
PLT Let me check that one and make you another mark
here.
227 18 32 15 PLT Okay, that's near zero. Take your filters out.
In there, old buddy Fomalhaut. Wonder how it
ever got that name. I don't know anybody named
Fomalhaut. Knew a guy named Porkart. That ain't
even like FomA]haut. There he is; old double
Fomalhaut up there himself.
PLT You know what, space fans, I've done this whole
thing with this dang window protector in here. So
I'm going to have to do a run of 2 and 3 all over
again.
227 18 33 5h PLT Well, cancel run 2 and 3 there, boys. Don't know
if we're going to have time to try it again or
not, but as long as we're zero biasing, let's get
with it.
227 18 36 15 PLT - with luck on this time around. Fear not. We'll
get it done sometime, the good Lord willing and
/_ 887
227 18 38 50 PLT Well, guess what, space fans, the Sun's come up;
so we've Just blown a whole one here, but we'll
do better next time. Put this stuff away.
_ 227 19 35 25 CDR This is the CDR. We're getting ready to start the
509 now, and I've been doing some thinking about
it from my run yesterday. Two things become very
obvious to me after yesterday's run. One, we don't
need all this preciseness that we've got in 509 for
attitude control. We don't need to be - have
something like RATE GYROS or CMGs because there's
Just no task that I can think of where you - you
want to hold yourself so neatly and precisely in
space. Everything - every task that I've seen us
do EVA so far are - kind of think about the pos-
sibility in the near future - is a strictly
go-to-and-from thing. Maybe you go and get in, or
you go and hang on, or you go and ... But, in any
case, what you - what you don't need is, particu_
larly, precise holding capabilities, so it seems
obvious - or it seems probable that we've - if we
built the maneuvering unit for outside, we'd want
to get rid of that and Just have something like
DIRECT.
227 19 36 37 CDR The second thing is you want something that flies
• pretty much like the equipment you've been flying
with all along, mainly spacecraft and airplanes,
which sort of eliminates the _. You're re-
888 _-_
227 19 37 01 CDR And last, or third, although I Just said there were
two, is.you need to get on with it. This thing
flies awful slow and I guess in some respects that's
okay; EVA, say, you want to save the fuel. But
it's - what you - or I think you'd want to do with
a maneuvering unit is get something that you can
go a little faster at the expense of having precise
control. In other words, there's always a tradeoff
there. Where to put the weight. The weight
shouldn't be in things like rate gyros and CMGs.
It should be in things like little bigger thrusters,
maybe? No, that's not a good idea. The thrusters
we've got are adequate in size. It should be in
increased fuel supply so you can go faster.
227 19 37 45 CDR So I guess the big three are: Get something that
gets there faster - doesn't take so long. Second, _
get something that's simpler - plain old direct.
And third, get something that flies like a space-
craft so that your intuitive motion and controller -
controlled responses to attitude errors and trans-
lational errors are correct. And we'll go fly it
now and I'll give you some more comments later.
CDR out. That's for Ed Whitsett, Lou Ramon, and
Bruce McCandless.
227 19 45 57 SPT Okay, SPT on channel A debriefing the last ATM pass.
Much of this I've mentioned on - on the real-time
down-link. At the start of the rev, I did look for
a bright spot and I believe that I found one over
towards the east limb. I have link - voice-link
recorded to the ground a ROLL, minus 10,800; and
RIGHT, plus h00; DOWN, minus 800 - 089 - 89. Now
on DETECTOR 3 which reading says zero, the contrast
was really remarkable all the way up to 1200 to
1400 counts. It went off at this point. A few
arc seconds away it would drop down to Just a couple
889
227 19 _6 2_ SPT Now at the end of the orbit - the last Just couple
of minutes after I'd finished everything else, I
moved the GRATING to 1941, which is magnesium l0
on DETECTOR number 3. And I went back to the same
coordinates and flew it around there a few
arc seconds all the way around and could see no
enhancement at all at 1941 GRATING position. So
we'll see, on the first of the next orbit, whether
.... that holds true. But if so, it m_y be the coronal -
not the corona - coronal lines that are providing
this enhancement, but something lower down in the
chromosphere. So we'll Just have to keep our eye
on that and I'd appreciate any comments you might
have about what you think of this, whether or not
it does appear to be at a somewhat lower altitude
at which the small bright points are originating.
I followed that with the building block 2, Sun
centered, as specified.
227 19 48 17 SPT I'm interested in doing 90, which was scratched for
86, which was scratched for the new active region.
I did point to those coordinates which were
up-linked from the ground. And I think they were
B0 and 500, or something like that. Yes, UP, 30,
and RIGHT, 500. And when I got there, I could
really see no signature in H-alpha. But I did go
through a building block ll Just in case there was
something I couldn't see and provide us with a
little background information for later use. I
then tried to pick up this 12-D, which I had pur-
posely skipped, and I did have time for the
10-second and the 40-second exposure but not quite
enough time for the 2 plus 40. So I did not com-
plete 12-D with the 2 plus 40 exposure and, if

227 19 59 18 PLT Run 1. No, we're in run 2. Okay, space fans; this
is Jack on channel A. The subject is M509-2. A1
has donned the ASMJ and he's left the donning
station. He's floating upward at a controlled rate.
Okay. Receiver data is in NORMAL; ID-1. He's
verifying all co,hands at this time. There he goes.
227 20 01 15 PLT Okay, CMG and then RATE GYRO, verifying all
commands.
CDR ...
PLT What?
CDR Okay.
227 20 04 04 PLT DATA MARK. Okay, he's going to MODE, CMG. Fly as
on the six-degree-of-freedom simulator but with a
rate typical of an EVA mission and be consistent.
227 20 04 36 PLT Meanwhile, the intrepid PLT gets the camera out.
CDR ...
227 20 05 31 PLT DATA MARK at the banjo. Now flying down to the FMU
number 2.
227 20 08 13 PLT He's there. He's at the dc_e locker. Now he's
rotating around.
227 20 09 45 PLT Okay, he's passing locker 424. He's underneath the
condensate tank now. Watch head'
227 20 ll _7 PLT After baseline in CMG, cage the CMGs in RATE GYR0.
He's stationkeeping into donning station now.
227 20 12 01 PLT Cage the CMGs in RATE GYR0. CMG POWER, OFF.
227 20 12 16 PLT Okay, he's in RATE GYRO. MODE - MODE, DIRECT. He's
caging the CMGs.
CDR ...
PLT Huh?
227 20 12 54 PLT DATA MARK. He backed off from the donning station
in DIRECT.
PLT Look this way. Don't quit looking. Here you go.
No.
227 20 16 24 PLT DATA MARK. Now he's backing off. Whoo' I'm having
more fun than he is. That's enough of those Nikon
photos.
227 20 21 37 PLT Doesn't seem to have any problem holding onto some-
thing and moving around with that weight on his
back. Okay. Repeat the baseline in MODE gy -
RATE GYRO - of which we have more than 750, which
is required.
227 20 30 52 PLT Okay, he says let's give it a go. I'm staying out
of the way. MODE to RATE GYRO, it says. He ain't
doing it in RATE GYRO; he's doing it in DIRECT.
Okay, he's going to pick a point, which is the
banjo. He pushes off! There he goes_ He pushes
off with his hands; no control. He got a little
too much yaw, so he's correcting it with his atti-
tude controller with a little right yaw, a little
pitch up. Okay, he stabilized his attitude now.
And he is floating directly toward the banjo, with-
out having to use his THC. Hands off the THC. He
puts his hands out; he stops himself at the banjo,
puts his feet out before the ASMU touches the wall.
He has stabilized himself at the banjo. He looks
down at the FMU.
227 20 31 50 PLT He gives it a DATA MARK. Pushes off with his hands
and his toes. Uses attitude control, a little bit
of aft thrust. Aft thrust.
227 20 32 47 PLT DATA MARK. Hanging onto the FMU, he rotates himself
to the right, yawing to the right a little bit
"_ 897
227 20 33 57 PLT DATA MARK; he eases himself hand over hand around
the ring, being careful not to permit ASMU to touch
the locker. He uses hand over hand and around the
ring over to h32.
227 20 34 31 PLT Okay, he's able to get himself over there with a
minimum amount of difficulty. Stops in front of
_ h32, not having fired a thruster.
227 20 3_ _3 PLT DATA MARK. Looks back over his left shoulder to
find out where the donning station is. He sees
it. Stabilizes himself in front of the dome locker
and pushes off with both hands. Yaws left, trans-
lating do_mward, gives himself aft thrust. Aft
thrust. Now he's going to back in to donning sta-
tion it looks like. He is sideways to the donning
station at this time, left side toward it. He looks
like he is not going to back in; he is going to go
in front first. Yawing to his left, backing off
with the THC, coming neatly into the position in
front of the donning station; grabs up, reaches
the handrails and stabilizes himself, with a -
CDR That might have cost more fuel than Just flying it.
PLT You think that might have cost more fuel than Just
flying it; that's kind of the same thought I had,
in listening to you. So my - -
CDR Okay, we've got - about ... gas to try it. They
want a RATE GYRO freestyle ..°
227 20 36 03 PLT MODE to RATE GYRO now. He's going to - fly free-
style maneuver in Just a minute. The kid checks
the pressure. The kid says it's 600 psi, which
ain't much, which is less than he needs for free-
style maneuver, but he can do it conservationally.
He'll be able to use up that ... He backs off'
There he goes' That's RATE GYRO, I can tell. He's
pitching down, pitching down to get to the banjo,
which is new: A brand new mode of translation.
He's in the middle of the workshop. He is parallel
with the water can. Completely upside down. Okay,
he's still pitching up. Parallel to the workshop
floor, heading toward the near dome locker, upside
down, banjo position. He is going to reach the
banjo upside down, Just as he had intended. Feet
up towards the OWS hatch, facing the banjo, stabi- _-_
lizing himself, multiple thruster firings ; looks
over his left shoulder. Down to FMU-2, which is
over - down by your right cheek.
227 20 37 48 PLT Okay, upside down at the banjo. He backs away from
the banjo; he yaws to his right. Slowly but surely
translating, now facing the condensate tank.
227 20 38 09 PLT Now he is just about on his side with his head
yawed to the right, along the plane of the work-
shop floor.
227 20 38 _9 PLT Your feet are going to hit the blue ring, A1. Pull
them in - attaboy; there you are. Okay, he's -
approaching FMU-2, 180 degrees out of his normal
FMU-2 position, his feet toward the film vault.
And head by the minus-Z SAL facing FMU-2. His right
side pointing down toward the PSS bottles. Seems
about 1 foot and a half from FMU-2 at this point.
He backs off; there he goes. Satisfied with his
position at FMU-2, he backs off and yaws to his
left, looking over his left shoulder for F fo -
899
CDR ...
227 20 4h 51 PLT Wait a minute, wait a minute, not yet. Okay, hold
that for a moment; now back in. You're in, you're _
in. Attaboy; let her go. Okay, he is in space
fans, secured safely in the donning station, await-
ing a change of everthing that can be changed. He
is going to take a break and debrief, he says.
Should we turn off all these cameras? If we can
find all the buttons. There is one button that
made itself to the dome. Probably got ensnarled
with your friendly PLT. That knob is off also.
Still running, the dumb thing. Somehow it must
have got cut off early. Really don't know what
happened to that.
227 20 45 56 PLT The button must have got kicked, space fans, on
the dome camera. Well, I'm sure we got plenty of
good maneuvering and flying. But there's more
to come - more to come, ladies and gentlemen.
Don't go away. Don't leave your set. Tune in in
another l0 mlnutes. The question is: Can the
intrepid test pilot be happy with a new PSS and
battery? Time will only tell. Signing off for
now. Be back later.
227 20 h7 05 CDR This is the CDR and l'm debriefing part of run 2.
The - I'm debriefing part of 509. This is betw -
between the bottle change and battery change. This
information goes to Ed Whitsett, Lou Ramon,
Bruce McCandless, and other 509 interested indivi-
duals. Which - I'll Just go through list again
and then maybe you can make a few comments. And
then I'll do the same thing after the second run.
That way we'll get - cover both maybe.
227 20 50 30 CDR Should any maneuvers be changed for the next 509
run? I don't know. I tell you another thing I
did today that I think was worthwhile. I thought
previously that what you might do with the _neu-
vering unit is go to a position, hold on, and then
shove off from that position towards the next one
and use the maneuvering unit for a midcourse cor-
rection. I tried that doing a standard maneuver,
doing the baseline maneuver. In other words, I
hung onto the handlebars, pushed away, and then
made a midcourse correction up at the banjo, which _.
I caught on. Then I did the same thing over to
the - the - base plate for the - T103, and then
se - and then all the way around. Didn't use any
thrusters from around the dome ring lockers, because
I could Just use m_ hands.
227 20 51 23 CDR But my feeling after the run was it cost me more
in fuel to do that than it did if you was flying
precisely. Now, I could be wrong - not precisely,
hut better than casually or operationally accept-
able. I could be wrong on that, and I think this
would be an interesting piece of data to have.
Because it's something that I've thought and
several of my associates have thought for a long
time - that maybe these - these maneuvering units
really only help you between points, that you
ought to Just try to aim for them and push off.
Now maybe I could be better at aiming, probably
could with practice and training. But on first
glance -thought right now would be that maybe it'd
be Just better to go ahead and fly it - turn
around and fly it in the right direction. You
might save gas - certainly be easier. But in any
event, that 's what I did.
227 20 52 12 CDR Should any maneuvers be changed for the next 509
run? I don't know. I think we ought to try all

227 20 56 50 CDR Did you notice rate changes during CMG desat?
Yesterday I didn't. Today I watched it carefully
and noticed that it did. It's a Jerk on the
vehicle when the thing fires and surprises you
because you haven't put in a co_nand. It does it
in all axes. It doesn't do it very often. When
it does, it's not particularly disturbing; it is
noticeable though. It Jerks the vehicle slightly;
it Jerks the - you and the back pack slightly, but -
no strain. It's certainly acceptable.
227 20 58 0B CDR Could you hear Or feel the CMG locking solenoids?
The answer: Yes, I could hear them, and I could
feel them ever so slightly, almost the same as on
the ground. I felt no - difference in zero g with
those two items.
227 20 58 16 CDR Could you hear the CMG gimbal whine during limb
motion? Slightly. I didn't look for it. I've
got to look for that next time. I - I - I've
noticed if you move your legs or arms or body,
you can move the maneuvering unit around greatly.
And before I started any mR neuvers, Just as I
came out of the - donning station, I did some of
those and you can see them. And you can see I
moved quite large excursions and rapidly. And I
think that will give you a feeling that - that
maybe your body motions could - could have a ...

9O6
227 20 59 05 CDR Did you advertently [sic] contact the OWS? If so,
how often? I contacted it three or four times.
Once or twice during the upside-down maneuver
and once or so other times. The answer: I could
have avoided it. I could - I saw - I saw I was
approaching it. I decided to save gas and try to
see it sneak by. It didn't quite make it. One
time I did contact it in RATE GYRO and it started
quite a number of pulses. That was disturbing;
I wish I hadn't done that, but I guess I never
realized that it was going to fire quite so many,
because I just barely touched the surface.
227 20 59 38 CDR This was coming down to - the final docking from _.
the upside-down maneuver and - _ toe touched
the - the - the workshop floor. Fired quite a
n_mher. I was a little hit surprised.
227 20 59 51 CDR Did you sometimes use your legs and hands to stop
or push off? None to stop or push off except
during the maneuver where I tried to do it. How-
ever, you could. You could get a stuck thruster
in this thing, I'm convinced, turn the handle and
just turn - just wait until your - came to the
wall and catch it. I don't think there's a bit
of danger in this vehicle as far problems with
runaway thrusters - or the like. You Just hear
thusters go. The minute one goes that you didn't
command, you know it. If you're not in RATE
GYRO or CMG and there's much firing, when that
vehicle starts to move more than Just oscillate
back and forth as it fires, you're going to turn
it off and there's going to be no strain. The
observer can grab you in 3 seconds and stop you.
The machines's so much faster than you are on
that ... in moving through the space that your
chances of getting to the wall and getting hurt -
are really zero.

PLT Hey l
227 9_114 19 SPT Now when I got back there, I had already moved
the GRATING down to 1941 and did not find much of
a peak of any kind in that vicinity. So I went to
precisely those coordinates again - DOWN, minus 89;
RIGHT, plus 400. And I then began to move slowly
LEFT/RIGHT, UP and DOWN, one position at a time
on my - 55 MIRROR, by searching back and forth,
first of all, along line 32 and then - up and
down a little bit - from line 9. I'd have to
call that line 9 in col1-,n 32. So I searched back
and forth on line 9 by changing the col1_mn. Then
I'd move up and down a little bit. And I finally
found a fairly good peak in the - DETECTOR number 3.
