Apollo 8, this is Houston. If you should decide that you want to roll heads up on REV 2, one thing to remember, be sure you yaw 45 degrees right in order to maintain your high-gain antenna COMM. Over.

We will not do that; we're going to stick with the flight plan, and make the best we can here.
- Frank Borman (CDR)

As usual, in the real world, the flight plan looks a lot fuller than it did in Florida.

Houston, Apollo 8. Just for your information, after we completed P52, I acquired the earth in the sextant. Quite a sight from here.

Apollo 8, Houston. Your SPS data looks real good. It is just a matter of getting it all in from the site and getting it looked at.

Apollo 8, Houston. We would like to take about 5 minutes of high bit rate. Over.

Roger. Bill, they say they have already dumped the tape, and it's almost totally clean.
