I see those thrusters.

It's the sun shining off of them, because we haven't used the A-Ring yet.

Okay, waste valve NORMAL.

What time is it in the flight plan?

It's 2 hours and 9 minutes.

2 hours and 10 minutes.

You're supposed to give an oral temperature.

I'll give them one.

Okay. Translation Check at 2:17, which is 7 minutes away.

Yes.

You want to take pictures on this?

We're supposed to with a 16 mil.

Okay. Shoot, we've hardly used any film. Of course there's 130 feet in there. Wait a second till I get the suit closed.

It's 10 ft/sec with the forward firing ones.

Roger. Getting ready for a translation burn.

You going to use the aft burn or the forward burn?
