Frank Borman (CDR): Go ahead, Houston.
03 06 16 51
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. If you would go to P00 and ACCEPT, please, we are going to send you a P27 load which will update an RLS value which will be followed by a procedural change, Jim, we will give you later; and AUTO OPTICS should be working shortly.
03 06 17 12
Jim Lovell (CMP): Roger. Or I could use no landmark AUTO OPTICS instead of the code.
03 06 17 31
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. We are also sending you up a state vector update at the same time.
03 06 17 39
Jim Lovell (CMP): Okay. We will be expecting that.
03 06 18 14
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. We're taking the DSE for a dump. Over.
03 06 18 31
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. Over.
03 06 18 36
Jim Lovell (CMP): Go ahead, Houston.

Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. We would like to take Bill's DSE for a dump. Over.
03 06 18 44
Jim Lovell (CMP): Roger. Go ahead.
03 06 18 46
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Thank you.
03 06 24 33
Bill Anders (LMP): Houston, Apollo 8. We're ready for the—your updates, your PAD's.
03 06 24 38
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. Roger. I have updates, a map update for REV 5/6, and TEI 6 update. Which would you like first?
03 06 24 51
Bill Anders (LMP): Okay. I've got the map update page now. Why don't you give me that one?
03 06 24 55
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Okay. Map update for REV 5/6. LOS 78:58:49, sunrise 79:08:07, prime meridian 79:14:30, AOS 79:44:36, sunset 80:21:05; IP-1, time of closest approach to target B-1 80:09:00. Now your two new control points that Jim gave us: control point number 1, acquisition 79:10:32, control point number 2, acquisition 79:23:14. Over.
03 06 26 16
Bill Anders (LMP): Roger. Copy. Ready for the TEI.
03 06 26 26
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Okay, Bill. Before we read the big TEI update here, I'd like to give Jim briefly a procedure for P22. When he comes to NOUN 89, we request that he do a VERB 34 ENTER. Do not proceed, and by so doing then, he will not incorporate the lat and longitude from his mark, and he will not change the reference value of the landing site, and we will solve this AUTO OPTICS problem. Over.
03 06 27 08
Bill Anders (LMP): Let me see if I have this correct, Mike. When flashing 0689 comes up with the latitude and longitude information, I will not proceed but will go to VERB 34 and terminate. Is that correct?
03 06 27 24
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Yes, that is affirmative. Do a VERB 34 ENTER instead of a PROCEED. And that will -
03 06 27 34
Jim Lovell (CMP): Alright. Is this technique true -
03 06 27 45
Jim Lovell (CMP): Houston, is this technique true for both the node control point AUTO OPTICS on P25?
03 06 27 52
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Stand by one, Jim.
03 06 27 54
Jim Lovell (CMP): And the LM …
03 06 28 09
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): That is affirmative, Apollo 8. That is always true.
03 06 28 16
Jim Lovell (CMP): Okay. Roger. True for the code AUTO OPTICS and no landmark. I'll proceed instead of going on—or I'll use 34 instead proceeding on 89.
03 06 28 25
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. Thank you, Jim, and I have the TEI 6 hour when you are ready—or TEI number 6.
03 06 28 45
Frank Borman (CDR): Go ahead.
03 06 28 52
Bill Anders (LMP): Ready to copy.
03 06 28 54
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. I'm glad you are ready to copy TEI number 6. I've got one last comment for Jim before you do so. The VERB 89—or correction—the NOUN 89 we are talking about is the one that he gets after marking. There are two NOUN 89's, one prior to marking and one after, and our procedure references NOUN 89 after marking. Over.
03 06 29 21
Jim Lovell (CMP): Roger. Understand.
03 06 29 24
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Thank you, and, Bill, you still ready to copy?
03 06 29 29
Bill Anders (LMP): Ready to copy, Mike.

03 06 32 46
Bill Anders (LMP): Roger, Houston. TEI 6, SPS/G&N: 45701, minus 040, plus 157 018:21:24.43, plus 31776, minus 00823, minus 01365 180 016 001, NA, plus 00188 31816 302 31624 40 2699. Are you with me?
03 06 33 39

Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger, Bill. On your ignition time, GETI is 81 hours, 081. Over.

03 06 34 42
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Thank you, sir.
03 06 34 46
Bill Anders (LMP): Thank you, Michael. As a matter of interest, these side windows are so hazy that when the sun shines on them, they just about—they are real poor for any visual observation or photography—heads-up.

Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Apollo 8, Houston. Over.

Jim Lovell (CMP): Go ahead, Houston.
03 06 36 37
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Roger. The last state vector updates we sent you, Jim, was to the LM slots, and you will have to transfer that over to the CSM slots using VERB 47 ENTER. Over.
03 06 36 52
Jim Lovell (CMP): Roger. Will do.
03 06 36 54
Mike Collins (CAPCOM): Thank you.
