Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Good show. Thank you.
00 03 43 25
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston.
00 03 43 31
Bill Anders (LMP): Go ahead, Houston.
00 03 43 32
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): we would like to take control of the DSE for a while, Bill.
00 03 43 35
Bill Anders (LMP): Go ahead.
00 03 43 36
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Thank you.
00 03 43 54
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. We would like to get an approximate GET of your SEP maneuver to use for our ephemeris tracking data.
00 03 44 06
Frank Borman (CDR): Roger. It was 3 hours 40 minutes zero seconds.
00 03 44 10
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Good, 03:40 and a foot and a half—feet per second. Right?
00 03 44 15
Frank Borman (CDR): Roger. About that —
00 03 44 16
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Okay.
00 03 44 18
Frank Borman (CDR): — We have the—Mike, we have the exact callout here for you and a burn status report.
00 03 44 22
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Alright.
00 03 44 28
Frank Borman (CDR): Alright, DELTA-V_X minus 00011, DELTA-V_Y plus 0002, DELTA-V_Z minus 0002, roll 0, pitch 180, yaw 0. Over.
00 03 44 46
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger, Apollo 8.
00 03 46 25
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston.
00 03 46 29
Frank Borman (CDR): Go ahead, Houston. Apollo 8.
00 03 46 31
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. At your convenience, would you please go P00 and ACCEPT? We're going to update to your W matrix. And also when you get a chance, we would like to know about the SLA panels. Did they all depart? And do you have any comments about the SLA?
00 03 46 43
Frank Borman (CDR): They all departed, and they worked fine.
00 03 46 47
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Okay. Thank you.
00 03 46 58
Frank Borman (CDR): We are in P00 and ACCEPT.
00 03 47 00
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Thank you.
00 03 48 26
Frank Borman (CDR): Houston, Apollo 8. Will you give us the information when you want us to stop the venting and so on?
00 03 48 32
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. Roger.
00 03 50 39
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8. Houston.
00 03 50 42
Frank Borman (CDR): Go ahead, Houston.
00 03 50 44
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. What is the venting information are you inquiring about: the O₂ flow high out through the waste tank or waste compartment, or are you talking about your evaporator?
00 03 50 53
Frank Borman (CDR): Evaporator. We are configuring now to stop boiling.
00 03 50 56
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Okay.
00 03 50 58
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): We concur in that.
00 03 51 02
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. You can go back to BLOCK. We have gotten in the load to the W matrix update.
00 03 51 10
Frank Borman (CDR): Roger.
00 03 51 58
Frank Borman (CDR): Houston, Apollo 8. The back pressure valve is closed, and the water flow is OFF.
00 03 52 03
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Back pressure valve closed, and water flow OFF. Thank you.
00 03 53 04
Frank Borman (CDR): Houston, Apollo 8 here.
00 03 53 05
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. Go ahead.
00 03 53 07
Frank Borman (CDR): Roger. It looks like I might have to do a couple more small maneuvers to stay away from the front of this S-IVB, the way we are ending up now. Do you want me to do these with our P47 if we have to do them?
00 03 53 19
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Standby one, Frank.
00 03 53 28
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): That's affirmative, Frank, on this P47.
00 03 53 30
Frank Borman (CDR): Okay. And give me the time again when it starts to dump, please.
00 03 53 35
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. We're working on an exact GET of that, Frank.
00 03 53 48
Frank Borman (CDR): Roger.
00 03 54 54
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston.
00 03 54 57
Frank Borman (CDR): Go ahead.
00 03 54 58
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): I'd like to give you some idea about your trajectory. It looks like a midcourse correction number 1, projected out to TLI plus 6 hours, would be only 7 feet per second. So, of course, any further maneuvers you do would add to that, which is probably good.

Frank Borman (CDR): I just want to stay from away from in front of this thing.
00 03 55 27
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. We concur. Looks like it is chasing you, huh?
00 03 55 32
Frank Borman (CDR): Yes.
00 03 55 53
Bill Anders (LMP): OMNI D.
