Roger, Bill. We see O'Neal real well, also the smaller crater off to the side of it.

-
Houston, this is Apollo 8. We are going to terminate our program for this pass and get on with the preparations for LOI 2, if you say we are GO.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Roger. Apollo 8, on your backside data, it's pretty much unintelligible. We suggest, Bill, that you recheck the position of your mike for your backside pass and try to speak a little bit louder and more distinctly. The last one we listened to, was pretty much unintelligible. Over.
- Bill Anders (LMP)
-
Roger. As soon as we get squared away, we will give you a real quick real time summary.
- Bill Anders (LMP)

And, Houston, you might let us know, can we do the red/blue filter exercise with both these filters—red filters on? Over.

Roger, Frank. You can expect GO/NO-GO for the next rev at 20 minutes before LOS. Over.

Apollo 8, this is Houston. We'll try to make that call 20 minutes before every LOS. Over.

Roger. Just an interesting feature: on my center window which has ice on it, it is now beginning to melt. I'm beginning to see through it.
- Jim Lovell (CMP)
-
The view at this altitude, Houston, is tremendous. There is no trouble picking out features that we learned on the map.
- Jerry Carr (CAPCOM)
-
Roger. Jim, that's good news. What do you think of the lighting situation as far as the range of lighting for good visibility?
- Jim Lovell (CMP)
-
The range from here is outstanding. I wish we had the TV still going because the brown area now is darker. We have just passed over the Sea of Fertility, and the mare is darker. The mountain range has got more contrast, has more contrast because of the sun angle. Bill's got the 16 mm going for us.
