Gus Grissom

Pulse. Going to use those stars. There's zero roll all right.

John Young

Well, that's great! I can't bust up the bag. Sure like to get that smell out of here and the only way I can do it is to bust that bag.

John Young

It won't break.

Gus Grissom

What do you mean?

John Young

I mean this bacteriacide bag.

John Young

Got it — a little.

Gus Grissom

We're coming into daylight again.

Gus Grissom

Does that look roll-level to you?

Gus Grissom

Is that level to you? Looking out the window.

Gus Grissom

What about yaw? I can't really tell yaw, can you?

John Young

Have you got that —

Gus Grissom

Let's see. You don't see the moon any place, do you?

Gus Grissom

It'll be coming up over my — on my right here pretty soon.

John Young

Boy, I tell you I really dig this zero g. This is the finest way to go I ever saw.

Gus Grissom

That looks about right in pitch. Roll is off.

John Young

Can you stick this on your side?

Gus Grissom

That mess? Doesn't that go in your food box?

John Young

Would if there was any room in it.

Gus Grissom

I don't have any room.

John Young

I don't either.

Gus Grissom

Drop it back behind the seat, I guess.

John Young

I'll try to stick it in the food box.

John Young

Okay, what does the flight plan say about here, Gus?

Gus Grissom

I'm supposed to be doing the Horizon Scanner Check, but I don't have time to do it.

John Young

Oh, okay. Well thanks, I'm done. I'm supposed to be doing that O2 High Rate Check. Is it at 2:40 in the flight plan?

Gus Grissom

Yes. 2:40 right now.

John Young

Okay, we'll got to O2 High Rate. I've —

Gus Grissom

Man! The primary scanners are working! How about that!

John Young

I got to have some light here to look at the oxygen gages. Is that all right?

Gus Grissom

Yeah, I just can't figure out —

John Young

Okay, I'll go to O2 High Rate. O2 High Rate isn't the way to go.

John Young

Okay, MARK. O2 High Rate.

Gus Grissom

I'm sure uncomfortable.

Gus Grissom

Let's leave the heater switch off and let the oxygen pressure come down a bit.

John Young

It will come down, and I mean it will come down!

Gus Grissom

You got the batteries on?

John Young

And at the start of the O2 High Rate Check, O2 quantity was reading 65 percent. Cabin pressure was 5.1. Cabin pressure is building slowly.

John Young

Look at that suit inlet temperature go up.

Gus Grissom

Is that moon coming up at about the right spot for you for zero yaw?

John Young

I don't see it over here, Gus.

Gus Grissom

Almost dead ahead. Maybe it's daylight. Maybe it's the sunrise.

Gus Grissom

Thruster sounds are about like the trainer, aren't they?
