Spacelog Gemini 3

Got the scanners again, I guess. That's what I got the last time.

Yeah. Okay, the O₂ pressure is now down to 925 and we have been on O₂ High Rate two minutes. Coming up on two minutes.

What was that?

Cabin pressure relief valve. Cabin pressure relief valve relieves with a loud shhh!

Still don't have that scanner light out. There it goes. That's what caused that thing to go out the last time—when you turned those mains on.

The horizon scanner?

Yes, but it came back on again, though.

That son-of-a-gun is relieving at 5.8, isn't it?

Okay, 2 minutes and 30 seconds O₂ High Rate.

And the Greenwich mean time is 1707.

Hey, give me that sight down there.

Okay.

I'll miss my tracking task.

You know what they did, they turned the sight around.

Really?

Yes.

Okay, that's three minutes and ten seconds of O₂ High Rate. Don't want to stay on it five minutes. I think that is more than a guy can stand. The suit inlet temperature is up to 64 and pressure is down to 825. We will shoot it a shot of manual heaters here when it gets to 800.

Okay, MARK. Four minutes on the O₂ High Rate Check. Now we will go to the first shot of manual heaters.

Man! It's almost impossible to see out with the sight in front of you.

Pressure is still dropping. Now it's coming up. Okay.

When you get that scanner light it pitches you right down.

Yeah. That's what they said it'd do, didn't they? Okay, 10 seconds to go, and been holding the manual heater switch in for the last minute. It's keeping the pressure up to 825.

Oh, man! That ball is staying way off —

Okay, MARK. O₂ High Rate recocked.

Give me the mark when you think I've got zero yaw.

Okay.

Oh, man! I don't know about this.

Turning the auto heater off.

Can't see a thing, Gus. The quantity at the end of the O₂ High Rate Check was down to 62 percent. Started at 66 and ended 62. I can't see a thing out the window, Gus, because of the sun.

This is about zero yaw.

Go a little bit left.

That looks pretty good, although —

That's about what we had in pitch attitude for zero before, wasn't it?

Yes.

Okay. At 2:40 in the flight plan —

That shows 30° off on the ball.

Started out at 66 and ended at 62, at 2:40.

Hey, what time do we come across the coast here?

We come across the coast at 3:04. What time is it?

That's too much pitch-up for zero attitude, don't you think?

Huh?

Is this too much pitch-up for zero attitude?

Yep.
