Spacelog Apollo 8

Roger. Before Jim makes his next mark, could he call up VERB 01 NOUN 91? We missed the last trunnion. Over.

Roger. The last trunnion was 10660.

10660. Thank you.

Apollo 8, Houston.

Go ahead.

Roger. CDR is 0.06, CMP is 0.64, and LMP is 0.64.

Roger. Thank you, Bill.

Looks like I'm the only one that is radioactive.

Understand.

Okay. Houston, we got three sets on 33; we are going now to 34 lunar far horizon for one set. Don't you agree?

We agree. Star 34 lunar far horizon for one set.

Houston, the cryos have been stirred, and could you also give me a quick rundown on how the SPS line temps are doing?

Roger, Bill. Understand you stirred the cryos. Last time we checked, the SPS line temps were excellent; they were nice and warm. We will give you another number right now.

And a PU valve.

Apollo 8, Houston.

Go ahead.

Roger. On your SPS system, your oxidizer is running 75 degrees, fuel 74 degrees, and PU valve between 78 and 82 depending on where we measured it. Over.

Real good. Everything really is working fine, isn't it?

Yes, it's really humming along, Bill.

Okay. See you later.

Houston, Apollo 8.

Apollo 8, this is Houston.

I understand you want two sets on number 40, lunar near horizon. Is that right?

Apollo 8, Houston.

Go ahead, Houston.

Roger. We missed your last trunnion angle, Frank.

21450.

Roger. 21450, and Paul tells me Valerie is over here and wishes Bill a happy nap.

Okay. Thank you. Tell her that he makes us tired sometimes too, will you?

Roger. I will deliver a modified version of the message.

Thank you.

Apollo 8, Houston.

Go ahead, Houston.

Roger. On star number 40 that you are doing now, the flight plan only calls for one set of marks. You called down two sets, and it's really your choice. Only one is required. We are glad to have the data if you do a second set. Over.

We will only do one then, if you want to. Our flight plan has been updated to include two sets. That is why I called it down.

Apollo 8, Houston. We missed the last trunnion.

Very well, I will read it to you; 21455.

21455. Thank you. Just a matter of interest: it is taking your voice about 1.6 seconds to get down to us.

I'm a little hoarse, that's why.

Okay. Houston, do you want us to go back to the PTC attitude now and start the rotisserie again?

That is affirmative, Frank. We will have the PTC attitude for you in just a second here.

Apollo 8, Houston.

Go ahead.

Roger. Those PTC attitudes remain pitch 224 degrees, yaw 020 degrees. On the next page, page 239 of your flight plan, those PTC numbers should be changed to reflect that.

Pitch 224 and yaw 20.
