5—4—3—2—1 -

MARK. T_R 34:00.

Roger. The clock is counting down.

Molly Brown, Carnarvon. The medics would like to get the respiratory maneuver when you have a chance.

Roger. It's coming.

Molly Brown, Carnarvon has it loud and clear.

…

This is Carnarvon, Molly Brown. Say again.

What's this new GMT of retrofire you gave us?

Say again.

What is the GMT of retrofire you just gave us?

Roger. The GMTRC is 18 57 23 for a GETRC of 04 33 23.

Molly Brown, Carnarvon. Do you want the rest of the quantities? The Cape said it wasn't necessary unless you want them.

That's okay, Pete.

Molly Brown, this is Carnarvon.

Go ahead.

Cape recommends that I give you your backup quantities there for GMTRC of 18 57 23. It'll be a roll left 55. GMTRB of 19 08 23. Roll right 65 at GMT 400K 19 01 29.

Okay, Gus. I only have one question for you before you go out of range. How's the flying up there?

Great!

Fine GT-3. See you next trip—next year.

Okay. That was the last tape change.

Going to primary scanners at 25 minutes to retrofire.

Okay.

Or GMT of 1832.

Okay.

Can't you get the camera stowed?

There it goes.

Seems like one of those scanners just needs a rest every now and then. You know?

Yes.

Scanner went out at 1833.

There's that scanner light again.

It's out.

It's on again.

It's out again.

Scanner light's out again.

It's on again.

Scanner light is on.

Going to secondary at 1835.

Secondary scanner ignore light is good at 18 35 10.

Now I see what you mean about those RCS thrusters shining when the sun is shining on the nose.

Got your seat belt hooked?

Can you take it around a couple more times?

I don't know. Got your shoulder harness?

Yes, finally.

Now, let me go through this checklist in an orderly manner.
