TR-5 circuit breaker is closed.

John Young

Okay. All equipment is stowed. Secondary B pump is on.

Gus Grissom

There comes the sun.

John Young

And that old suit temp down there at 55°, S-band-CONTINUOUS, C-band-CONTINUOUS, T/M in REAL-TIME and ACQ.

John Young

Main batteries—we tested them. They checked good. C is way up there at 29, S2 —

Gus Grissom

Man! With that sun shining on the nose, I can't see anything now.

John Young

Every time you fire those RCS thrusters S1 and S2 drop voltage. Well, that's not unusual.

Gus Grissom

Hey, I can see the shadow of the scanner working now.

John Young

23.5 on the main bus.

John Young

Okay, right circuit breakers all closed.

Gus Grissom

Man! I hope the 8-ball is right, because there's no horizon.

John Young

Okay. Now 4:06 after retrofire is 400K, and 11 minutes after retrofire is reverse.

Gus Grissom

What's that again, now, John?

John Young

4:06 after retrofire is -

Gus Grissom

Let me write that down.

Gus Grissom

And what is reverse?

John Young

Eleven minutes flat. That sounds about right, because it was 10 minutes and 51 seconds from our nominal data.

Gus Grissom

There is still no horizon.

John Young

Okay. Give me a mark, and let me check TR one more time.

Gus Grissom

Okay, I'll give it to you at 19:08.

Gus Grissom

Got about 10 seconds. Could give it to you anytime, couldn't I?

John Young

Yep.

Gus Grissom

You're going to be a little late. I think you punched a little late.

John Young

19:04. That's a good TR check.

Gus Grissom

Hope the sun doesn't get that scanner right here.

John Young

The last burn we received was 96 feet a second and a minute and 49 seconds of burn. Right?

Gus Grissom

Yeah, we're going to aline.

John Young

Okay. Ready for this burn.

Gus Grissom

Okay. Six minutes.

Gus Grissom

I've got to start that computer.

Gus Grissom

Man! There's the horizon and it is beautiful.

John Young

Okay. Better pitch over and check yaw.

John Young

Better check yaw, for sure.

Gus Grissom

Okay. We have it. It's lying good now and the scanner —

John Young

Feels like it. Looks like it.

Gus Grissom

Got everything but start computer.

Gus Grissom

I'm not going to start until later.
