Spacelog Gemini 3

Go ahead CSQ.

Molly Brown, Molly Brown, Carnarvon CAP COM. How do you read?

Loud and clear. How me?

Roger. Read you the same. Could you give us your status please? And the cape would like to know if any of the remedies helped your yaw problem.

No. None of the remedies helped and we are GO.

Okay. You have a GO from down here for the second orbit, and, if you'll stand by, I'll send you a 2-1 T_R and a Gemini load.

Roger.

Stand by for T_R.

You ready?

Yes.

Okay, Molly Brown. We got your Gemini load. We could not get T_R in. We got a spacecraft reject on T_R, and it did go in at this time. I'd like to give you a hack on T_R at 39:30, in about 10 seconds.

You're going to punch it, aren't you?

Yes.

Molly Brown, stand by on my mark.

MARK! 39:30 is your T_R. Your T_R clock is synched with all on the ground, and your spacecraft elapsed time is synched.

Okay. We have computer time of 39:28. That's close enough.

Roger, and I believe I see a light from Perth.

Roger. I understand you see light from Perth. We'll have a radiator status for you in a minute, and anytime you can give your GMT for your experiment, I'd appreciate it.

Roger. The GMT of that Blood Experiment —

The elapsed time of the Blood Experiment was 50 minutes and 18 seconds. That was elapsed time.

Roger. 50 minutes and 18 seconds. Your radiator—in is 73, your rad-out is 38. You're looking pretty good.

Roger.

And if John is ready to copy any of this maneuver load, I have it for you.

All set.

He's ready to copy.

Okay. GMTB 15 43 23. ΔV of 139. Duration of burn—2 minutes 39 seconds. Your GMTRC 15 55 24. Roll left 55. GMTRB 16 05 28. Roll right 65. GMT 400 K 15 58 23. Your maneuver load: 6344257, 0444775, 0533348, 664903.3, 676628.4, 082244.4, 09120.50, 10031.38, 11302.00.

Roger. Copied your parameters. Over.

Molly Brown, Carnarvon here. You can go secondary coolant loop OFF, and you can go evaporator to NORMAL.

Roger. Secondary coolant loop OFF and evaporator to NORMAL.

Molly Brown, Carnarvon CAP COM.

Go ahead.

Roger. Your Texas burn will be 48 ft/sec for 73 seconds.

Okay, 48 ft/sec for 73 seconds.

That's affirmative. We got your T_R and Gemini load in. Your clocks look good on the ground, and everything is GO here. See you next trip.

Let's get back on RECORD.

Okay.

Is that okay?

Yes, that's fine. It means we haven't used any OAMS fuel.
