(00:00):
One by athlete for Manta as thepurposes fine and fattery, I can.

(00:27):
I can pick it up loosely withmy toe. It does adhere in fine
layers, uh like body charcoal,to the to the stool and inside of
my boots. I only go inuh all fraction of an inch, maybe

(00:49):
an eighth of an inch, ButI can see the footprints of my boots
and the treads in the fine sandyparty Neilis as Houston were cupping. There

(01:19):
seems to be no difficulty in movingaround Is as we suspected. It's even
perhaps easier than the simulations of onefixed jeeve that that we performed in various
simulations on the ground aptfullly no troubleto walk around the If an engine did

(01:53):
not leave a crater of any size, it's has about one foot clay on
the ground. We're essentially on avery level place here. I can see
some evidence of rays emanating from thedecent engine, but very insignificant amount.

(02:27):
But they both be ready to bringdown the camera. I'm already I think
it's a few miles squad away ingood shape, okay, but be enough
to pay out all the lac andit looks like it's coming out nice and
evenly. Okay, it's quite darkhere in the shadow and a little hard

(02:51):
for me to see it. Ihave good footing. I'll work my way
over into the sunlight here without lookingdirectly into the sun. Okay, spot
now an official time on the firststep one O nine two four to zero

(03:24):
day. I think it's pulling thewrong one. I'm just okay, I'm
ready to pull it down now.There was still a little bit uh left
in they Okay, don all thequite their tight okay, uh looking up

(03:52):
at the lamb. I'm standing directlyin the shadow now looking up at uh
both in the windows and uh,I can see everything quite clearly. The
light is uh sufficiently uh right backlighting into the front of the lamb that
everything is very clearly visible. Okay, I'm gonna be changing it. Okay.

(05:57):
The sergeant says that a man calledon the uper bracket. The surgeon
says, the crew is doing well. Data is good. Crew is doing
well. I'm still in the lE C on the secondary start. He'll

(06:27):
step out and take some of myfirst pictures here. All right, your
nail, we're reading your alaud andclear you're getting some pictures and the contingency
sample MHM thirty five and a halfminutes of PLS as time expended. Now

(07:53):
not put it that huh, naillessus Houston. Uh did you copy about
the contingency sample over? Alright,you're gonna get to that distance by many
uh PICTA sorry, Okay, you'regonna get the contingency sample out of the

(09:01):
life. It's a good Okay.The contingency sample is down and it's a

(09:37):
sample. Yeah, Like it's alittle difficult to take through the Yeah,
it don't cross very interesting. It'sa very soft surface. But here and
there where I PLOrk with the withthe contingency sample collectors, I run into

(09:58):
a very high uh purpose, butit appears to be a very cohesive uh.
The aerial of the of the samesort. I try to get a
rock in here, a couple thatlooks beautiful from here. Now it has

(10:31):
a stark beauty all its own.It's like much as a high desert of
the United States. It's different,but it's very pretty ugous thesis that a
lot of the rock samples out here, the hard rock samples, have what

(10:52):
appeared to be vesicles in the surface. Also, I'm looking at one now
that Thursday at some port of Phenachrisusing Roger Potanna handles out the push has

(11:24):
been about all its trade inches intothe surface, like it's pretty easy to
perfect it is. It's uh,I'm sure I could push it in further,
but it worked for me to benddown further than that. Then I
get to make it through really throwthe things long away up here. My

(12:07):
pocket opened, but yes it is. That's not up against your suits.
I hit it back once more,work more towards the inside. Okay,
that's good cut in the pocket.Yeah, we's down, got it.

(12:31):
That's not all the way in pushingby Benons example is in the pocket oxygen
is eighty one percent. I haveno flags and I'm in minimum flow.

(12:56):
Does this Houston or Roger nail O? They I got the camera gon a
one frame a second, okay,and I've got eight zero percent? No

(13:30):
fine, But how are you gettinga TV picture now? Justin Neil,
Yes, we are getting a TVpicture, Neil, this is Houston.

(13:58):
We're getting a pick. Sure you'renot the present time we can see the
bag on the hell being moved bybuzz though here you come into our field
of view. Oh, let memove that over to you head for you
Okay, you ready for me tocome out. Just stand by thinking I'll
move this over the handrail. Okay, all right, that's got it.

(14:45):
Are you ready? I'll set Okay, you saw what difficulties I was having.
I'll try to watch your pliffs fromunderneath here h h the backup cameras

(15:20):
a vision. Okay, your purseslooks like it's clear and okay because they're
about to come over the field.Okay, now drop your plist down.
There you go. You're clear andbut really you're good? Then an inch

(15:46):
clear? Had sons dropped your plist? Okay, you need a little bit
of parching of the back to comedown by how far are my feet from
me? Okay, you're right atthe edge of the porch. Okay,
back in from all little off footmovement march barching in the back and it

(16:18):
comes up and clears the But I'llgaged out any trouble. All that's good.
Forty five minutes pls as time expended. Neil, this is Houston.

(16:44):
Based on your camera transfer with theLEEC, do you foresee any difficulties in
RC transfer over? That's the samplereturn containers. The rock boxes that kept
come. I want to back upand partially close the up, making sure

(17:22):
not to lock it on my wayup. Pically good thought. That's our
home for the next couple of hours. We want to take good care of
it. Okay, I'm on thetop step and I can look down over
the RCU and trying to get thatit's a very simple matter to hop down

(17:48):
from one step to the next.Yeah. I had to be very comfortable,
and walking is also very comfortable.But you're on. You've got three
more steps and then a long one. Okay, an leave at one foot

(18:18):
up there and both hands down aboutthe fourth rung up there you go,
An, I think I'll do thesame little more at another inge. Here.

(18:40):
You got it. That's a goodstep. Yeah, got a three
footer. Beautiful view is that's somethingI make never inside out here expect this
and this relations both PLSS is nominaland consumables like the secondary strut. A

(19:26):
little thermal effects on it right here, Neil, Yeah, I noticed that
that's the seems to be the worst, although similar effects are on all around
pier or powder at this time,right in this area, I don't think
there's much of any fine powder somespots together and start to tell whether it's

(19:52):
a quad or a rock, howyou can pick it out by the bouncers
and then beating down really easy,getting my seat thirty at this stage being

(20:47):
my house of the backpack of thesummer effect than any pressure. There's a
slight tendency, uh. I cansee now through uh backwards due to the

(21:14):
soft, very soft pixture. Hewas holding on a rock, big rock
there now patched, didn't I didn't, But that's a O grater there and

(21:44):
off the engine. I wonder ifthat right under the engine as were y.
I'd like that, all right,Yeah, that's I think that the
good representation of our side with velocityof touchdown that told it to prop policy

(22:06):
that broke over on the uh theminus wide strut broken off and us back
up out here. Then the othertwo boat bad over. I can't say

(22:38):
too much for the visibility right herewithout seeing a finder of be dark.
It looks like that as uh uhpurpose of a bound the rock. And

(23:03):
incidentally, these rocks uh very potterysurpose. So again please buzz you're cutting
out, and I guess I saythat the rocks are rather slippery, so

(23:25):
just very pottery purpose one of themthat fill up all the very little fine
forests. Uh, they'll tend tofly over it rather easily. Neil Armstrong

(23:52):
getting ready to move the TV cameranow out to its panorama position. Action
seems like good experium. But tolose my balance in one direction and recovery

(24:17):
is like natural and grade and movingarms around. Jack doesn't dot the surface,
not quite that light footed. AndI have the insulation off the mesa

(24:41):
now, and Mesa seems to bein good shape. Have to be careful
that you're leaning in the direction youwant to go, otherwise you rightly eighty
or if you have to t asyou've put over, to stay underneath where

(25:02):
your center of masses. And Yieldidn't I say we might see some purple
rocks. Find the purple rocks yep, baseball Sparkley U bagments are uh the

(25:30):
back bay on in places, butuh make your first guess as some sp
biotype to be that to the Ufurther analysis, but file lot come back

(26:03):
underneath. Oh you don't think downmore than a part of an engine.

(26:30):
Biotite is a brown mica substance.Okay them, I'm gonna change lands on
you or rug your nil life supportconsumable. Still looking good. M okay,

(27:04):
Houston, tell me get a newpicture. Neil, this is Houston.
That's affirmative. We're getting a newpicture. You can tell. It's
a longer focal length lens. Andfor your information, the all limbs systems
are go over information. They appreciatethat. Thank you. Bail is now

(27:55):
unveiling the fact that m Roger,we've got to both sided, but uh
back on one side. But thosetwo haven't read the flat Uh, we'll

(28:18):
read the plot that's on the frontplanning gear of the slam where there's two
hemispheres, one showing each of thetwo hemispheres of Earth. Underneath it says,
here men from the planet Earth,for except for it upon the moon

(28:38):
July nineteen sixty nine, EP becamein peace for all mankind. It has
the the crewmembers signatures and signature ofthe presidents of the United States. Heady

(29:10):
for the camera, Bo, getthere you taking to see the other that's
the l EAC. Then how myfrave these uh far materials any buffy yes,

(29:41):
surface material uh bowery and I orhow good your uh lens is?
But if you can I just pickBob very much like a very finely powered

(30:07):
carbon but pretty pretty looking. Youpull out some of my cable for me.
But I used the nap close areable to get things to focus.

(30:37):
This is Houston. We can seea buzz the right hand. Uh,
it's somewhat out of focus. Uh. I'd say we were focusing down to
probably oh about eight inches to afoot behind the position of his hand when
we're pulling out the table and whenokay, have the temperature looking there?

(30:59):
Temperature the camera is showing old.I'm a little cool. I think color
k some one intermediates now Houston andI show big point seventy eight of flying

(31:22):
to seventy Houston DA up and we'llprobably need a little back location elevation camera

(31:48):
and neil it. Let's uh,let's look at the minders by the direction
to travel there that look from rightto left right. There's one over here
under nec SN the pro first hit. I my pro first hit. I

(32:10):
got plenty a cable. Do yougot plenty play more? Okay, I
think I got the end of it. Something interesting in the bottom of this
A little crater here, maybe,uh, I keep going, we got

(32:35):
we got a lot more, Okay, getting a little harder to pull out.
Here do you stand on? Theladder? Face seems forward? The

(33:00):
minus white stretch is the lending gearto your left here, I am,
but forty fifty feet. Why don'tyou turn around and let them get a
view from there? And don't herewhat the feel of view looks like the
back and end of the cable.Okay, let to turn around to your

(33:24):
right. Be better. I don'twant to go into the sun. If
I can affoord it, let's tryhim. I just believe it. I
bet say like that and walk aroundit. I just denied that feel.
If you're going to be pick upthe mesa falling. But Neil, this

(33:54):
is Houston. The field of youis. Don't care. We'd like you
to aim at a little bit moreto the right. It over, okay,
Okay, that's all the cable wehave. Buy out. I'll start
working on the shoulder a little bittoo much to the right, and you

(34:15):
bring it back left about four orfive degrees. Okay. That looks good,
Neil, that looks good. Okay. Now I gotta be farther away
or closer. I can't get toomuch further away. Let's try it like

(34:39):
that for a while I'll get acouple of panoramas with it. Here,
Roger, you look okay as faras distance goes Neil, and we'll wind
you up again when you finish thepanorama and you're going too fast in the
panorama sweep, you're gonna have tostop for stepping. H I haven't stopped.

(35:02):
I haven't set it down yet.That's the first picture in the panoramic
right there, Judge, it's takinguh uh about north northeast. Tell me

(35:25):
if you've got a picture Hereston,But we've got a beautiful picture now,
Okay, I'm gonna move it.Okay, there's another good one right,

(35:57):
Okay, we got that one.Mhm h Okay. Now this one's right
down sun straight west. Uh.And I want to know if you can
see an angular rock in the foregroundrighter. We have aangular rock in the
foreground and looks like a much smallerrock a couple of inches to the left

(36:21):
of it. Over right, andthen on beyond it about ten feet is
an even larger rock that's very rounded. That the rock is about the closest
one to you, is about stickingout of the sand about one foot and

(36:42):
it's about a foot and a halflong, and it's about six inches uh
thick, but it's standing on edge, Roger. And now I've got the
table out at a bag to flight. We've got this you, Neil,

(37:15):
straight south, Dan, we seethe shadow of the limb and the hills
Dre the little hills. Just beyondthe shadow of the limb is a pair
of elongate craters about the pair togetheris forty feet long and twenty feet across,

(37:37):
and there are probably sixteen peeple willprobably get some more work in their
leaders, Roder. We see thebuzz going about as where is that for
a final run for an orientation,we'd like it to come left about five

(38:02):
degrees over back to the right abouthalf as much. Okay, okay,

(38:28):
looks good there, Neil. Perfect. Okay, one hour, seven minutes
time expended. Okay, you canmake a mark. You send me Roger's

(38:58):
hollow and and incidentally you can usethe uh shadow that the staff makes to
But if you're getting in some particularbuzz buzzes erecting the solar wind experiment,

(39:25):
now, how were these uh smalldepressions? Uh big spot? And you
then all may for three inches Ican see fatly what the fair pictures showed

(39:55):
when they UH pushed away a littlebit, you can s force transmitted through
the upper surface of the soil andabout five or six inches of bay,
it breaks loose and loves as ifit were taked on the surface, when
in fact it really isn't. Inoticed in the saut spots where we have

(40:19):
put prints nearly an inch deep thatthe soil is very cohesive and it will
retain a will retain a slope ofprobably seventy degrees along side of the all

(41:35):
M systems. Still looking good.Okay, go I think that person.

(42:12):
They then come up, I wentan did the uh? I went pick

(42:35):
up, but go out then wanout up the rocker e Electric one Columbia,

(43:30):
Columbia. This is Houston als orals or Neil Armstrong has spent on

(43:52):
the leaner surface now almost forty fiveminutes. I yah h h yeah Columbia,

(44:27):
and I came over Columbia. Thisis Houston reading you Aladin Clai over
reading now reading Lad Claire. That'sgoing, Roger. The e v A
is progressing beautifully. I believe they'resetting up the flag now. Great.

(44:52):
I guess you're about the only personaround that doesn't have TV coverage of the
scene. That's how I don't mindit better. How is the clown in
the DNA? How it's beautiful?Mike really is all right, jee,

(45:13):
that's great. It's the lightning end. Yes, indeed, they've got the
flag up now and you can seethe stars and starts from the limits that
up. Now you can beautiful notbeautiful if you can pull that into the

(45:52):
off of them painting that end ofthe M four go up. Okay,

(47:54):
now, let's it. Here's someidea I check over all right, you're
it's alte Clergil Clare's Roger was mI didn't like to evaluate the various pass

(48:52):
that a person can traveling on.The little leave them out of your field
of view, is right right now, here's the primitive buzz. You're gonna
feel with you now. You dohave to do feel all right. You

(49:15):
do have to be uh out ofcareful or to keep track of where you're
center. That is time to takeabout you a great pass, duper make
sure that you've got your feet underneathyou. At about STUBI three maybe four

(49:39):
easy paces continued to barely smooth stopin the direction of it like a football
player. You just have to putout to the side cut A little bit
of so called kangaroo hop does work, but it are your forward ability is

(50:17):
not quite as good as it isan conventional more conventional one. But after
another are saying what a pain pacemight be the one that I'm using now?

(50:49):
Would I get rather tiring after severalhundred But this may be a function
that to m fellas uh lack ofgravity for here tranquility based. This is

(51:21):
Houston. Can we get both ofyou on the camera from any place?
They gettington? You'd like to getboth of you to be a live here
with the camera from Let's get bothof you with a camera from Neil and

(51:43):
Buzz. The President of the UnitedStates is in his office now and would
like to say a few words toyou over That would be an honor.
Go ahead, mister President. Thisis Houston out. Hello Neil and Buzz.
I'm talking to you by telephone fromthe over room at the White House.

(52:07):
And this certainly has to be themost historic telephone call ever made.
I just can't tell you how proudwe all are. What for every American
this has to be the proudest dayof our lives, and for people all
over the world. I am surethey too join with the impizing what an

(52:30):
immense feat this is. Because ofwhat you have done, the heavens have
become a part of man world.And as you talk to us from the
Sea of Tranquility, it inspires usto redouble our efforts to bring peace and
tranquility to Earth for one priceless momentin the whole history of man. All

(52:58):
the people on this earth are trulyone, one in their pride in what
you have done, and one inour prayers that you will return safely to
Earth. Thank you for the President. It's their great honor and perplets for

(53:20):
us to be here representing not onlythe United States, but and of peace
of all nations. And with interestand that curiosity and with the vision for
the teacher uh honor for us tobe able to participate here today. And

(53:44):
thank you very much. And Ilook forward all of us look forward to
seeing you on the Harnet on Thursday. Look forward to that very much.
Columbia, Columbia, this is Herestonover five period Plager. I've got a

It's very interesting to note that whenI kick my foot l with uh

(55:45):
no atmosphere here in this avity,these they seem to leave, and most
of them have about the same angleof departure and velocity where I stand.
Our exportion of them will go aboutimpact at a certain distance put our several

Columbia. This is Houston. Whenyou track out of high gain antenna limit's
request omni delta, omni deild overgo man. I've noticed several times,

(56:58):
and going from the uh sunlight intothe shadow that just as might go in
at an additional uh reflection off thelimb uh along with the reflection off my
face onto the visor makes disability verypoor. It just that the uh transition

(57:20):
sunlight into the shadow, I uhessentially have so much glare coming onto my
visor. I'm not shadow till uhalma actually get battle and then it takes
a short while from my eyes toadapt uh the fighting condition but not the

(57:44):
uh battle areas. Yeah, visibility, as we've said before, is not
too great, but uh both visorsup phenomic. Consequently, what sort of
footprints we have in the minimalis ofthe toil. Then after being out in

(58:05):
the sunlight mile it takes ut andnail, kneel you're on the table,
okay, yeah, like have yourright foot, right foot, it's still
your toes still hooked in it.And one yeah it's still dent it iman.
Okay here clear now, thank you. I let let's move that over

(58:28):
the way. Neil Armstrong has thescoop for the bulk sample collection. The

(59:04):
uh the boot color of my bootshave uh completely disappeared now into this all.
You don't know exactly what color todescribe this other th aish uh cocoa
color seems to be uh be coveringuh close to the uh the wider part

(59:28):
of the boot color that uh thethat they find particles Uh buzz this is
and you're cutting out on the endof your transmissions. Can you uh see
a little more way into your microphoneroom? Microphone work, got y'all try

(59:55):
that beautiful now, I had thatone inside my mouth. That time sounded
a little What all what Neil's beenon the surface an hour? Now?

(01:00:29):
Uh? Isn't that quite twenty minutesless than that? In general? Uh
time spent uh in the shadow doesn'tseem uh have many big uh umbel effects

(01:00:50):
up. Maybe we still inside thefruit. Uh there is a difference uh
of course in the coming radiation anddolmet so I think they're uh and the
tate a feel a little cooler inthe uh ditter than we had about my
son. Yes, he'll be othersA here'ston over and over one hour and

(01:01:30):
a half expended on the PLSS isnow so why the others is? Here'ston
over Columbia? Is the Houston overhere? He al right here? You

(01:02:36):
should have VHF A O S withthe lemb right about now. VHF L
O s about will be at fortzero minute one five seconds over m heart

(01:03:29):
rates on both crewmen averaging between ninetyand one hundred. Flight surgeon reports they're
uh right on the predicted number ofthe uh BTU units expended in energy of
work, and he thinks they're ingreat shape. I look around the area

(01:03:54):
the UH the contract in general isUH out comes about lately by a virtue
of the shadows up on the upbut the down sun drill fays very light

(01:04:14):
colored gray light gray colored like ahalo around my own shadow, around the
shadow of my helmet. Uh.Then as I look off across on the
contrast becomes uh the longest attended thesurrounding that color is still fairly light as

(01:04:40):
you put down into the sun,but a larger amountain of bad areas looking
toward us. Uh. The generalcolor of the dark riven M thoughts on

(01:05:00):
contrast is not his fate surveying theUH all they that's the area that we've
picked up UH considerably darker and expirenow has picked up one. UH.

(01:05:23):
I imagine that UH this has beenbout by a certain the fact that's the
same surveyor the same as trip bysurveyed cross on U along the area that
we're bucking. General it's to thefact that their footprints there general terrain where

(01:05:45):
uh I've been up uh out ofthis uh surface veil is uh generally of
a darker contract coming feller. Youcan see Neil Armstrong bringing Scooper. I'm

(01:07:00):
on the takings about thirty to fortyfeet out the plus. But again with
your enough crazier love sort so itseems again with the A plus these trucks
I just right and if there thereare two raiders h the one that's right

(01:07:21):
in front of me now as Ilook off and about the I've an a
class position from BATA about h thirtyto thirty five feet a bot a leple
uh boxing the boulders of six eightinches across and the prizes. Neil is

(01:07:59):
still the bulk sample bag attached toa scale seem in the picture buzzes behind
the lamb at the minus Z strut. That's the landing gear directly opposite the

(01:08:28):
ladder. I think it has beenon the surface about an hour and ten

(01:09:19):
minutes now and now the area ofthe uh minup wide drug take it.

(01:09:51):
I'm I'm back a photograph buzz ismaking his way around the lamb, photographing

(01:10:30):
it from various angles, UH,looking at its condition on all sides.
N Neil still occupied with the UHbulk sample. One hour forty minutes time

(01:11:11):
expended on the PLSS is now afterball tample coming down. Ball tample is
being filled up the Columbia, Columbia, This is Houston, go ahead over.

(01:12:38):
I do you know Martin that Iwent that time. I didn't see
ventally small white object. UH,Gordon and Burn go ahead with the cordon
and from a small white object Ethe point three devon point six. But

(01:13:03):
I am never heard right down theramp of a crater, and I think
they would know it if they werein that they're located. It looked like
lane pitched up quite a quite athe grade and the hill of a smaller
crater. Co ruder copy echo decimalthree and seven decimal six and and Columbia,

(01:13:58):
missus Houston. While I'm talking toyou, L O S one will
be at one eleven and one ninethree one A O S one one two
zero five four three over Columbia,This is Houston. Did you copy L

(01:14:35):
O S A O S times overcopy and you've broken. I didn't regard
if I come out of my plan, Roger. Uh h h h h

(01:15:11):
h h. The uh dost deflectorthat mounted on quad one seems uh good.

(01:15:32):
That are wrinkled. But I say, now on quad four, now
you're breaking up again, both breakingup again. I say, the jets
deflector that mounted on quad bore itseems to be back and the surface of

(01:15:54):
it things that be are wrinkled.And the one that's on quad one generally
uh uh under the part of thelamb seems to have uh stood up quite
well to the uh of bits ofpictures uh in the half part of the
lamp don uh illuminate. Uh theseumbleeffects much better than than we could uh

(01:16:18):
get them up here at the frontright you're up. Want to get uh
some particular photographs of the balsample areaand you'll okay, and Houston hbove here

(01:16:56):
I'm showing three point seven eight If I uh fifty three percent out flying
uh adequate uh but light warming uhfingers I Jerry O'Neil has uh fifty six

(01:17:35):
percent oh two no flags animum coolingand the supressures three eight two US can
address. Neil has finished collecting andpacking the bulk sample. Uh, buzz

(01:18:08):
it is hereson have you removed theclose up camera from the NASA yet?
Over? I can thank you?Okay, don it don it? I

(01:19:19):
had the not at that time.I'm not there to be gone right.
You're uh it looks like you're abouta half hour U flow on it.
We're working on contempable or uh uhNeil and Buzzes is Houston. UH to

(01:20:15):
clarify my labs. Uh, yourconsumables are in good shape at this time.
The thirty minutes difference was with respectively, UH phenomenal timeline over god,
I understand that nil has been onthe surface now slightly over an hour and

(01:21:57):
twenty minutes. They UH don't knowany abnormalodies in the whimb uh, but
it seemed to be in good shape. The primary and secretary stuts are in

(01:22:19):
good shape. Uh. Antennas uhare all in place. That there's no
evidence of the problem underneath the lambto use the engine exposs or during each
of any kind drug. It's verysurprising the uh, very surprising lack of

(01:22:49):
penetration of all four of the footbadge. I'd say, if we're to
try and determine this out far belowthe surface, they would have benetrated.
If you'd pasu uh for three inches, would you stay Neil at the most
yum, but uh the fact thatthere is probably even less than that the

(01:23:23):
right think job I get a pictureof the US. Why it's not taken
from here the defense stage, Ithink we'll be able to see a little
bit better what the couple effects areseemed to be quite minimal. If one

(01:24:17):
picture taken at the right rear ofthe spacecraft looking at the uh skirts of
the defense state, oh uh likedarkening of the surface color uh a rather
minimal amount of uh uh radiating uhor etching away or erosion of the surpentce

(01:24:41):
you now uh on defense. Bothof us remarked that we get set a
large amount of uh very fine uhdust particles moving out. It was reported
beforehand that uh we would probably seean out Yeah, I think I'm I
thought that after UH actually acted jumpdown, But uh, I recall a

(01:25:06):
lot I was unable to verify thattoo big an angle, Neil, yep,

(01:26:03):
I'll be correct if I could beuh minaud Day's back. Now there

(01:27:02):
you'll fair were taken a bad willtake very little uh forth of impact that
we actually had. And now ifyou take the camera'll uh okay to work

(01:27:30):
on the head the q B rightColumbia, Columbia, This is Houston.
I noticed that Columbia, go ahead, but I t get some closer pictures
right front. I was saying that, uh, here'ston, don't uh stop

(01:27:59):
and take a photograph or something.And they want to start moving against sideways
fight a tendency to start doing itwith this gradual uh sideways hops because you
start getting kind of Roger. Canyou see us underneath the lamb over at

(01:28:26):
the sequba you need bus. Wecan see your feet sticking out the underneath
the structure of alem defensive. Okay, I'm just on the other side of
the now. We can see youthrough the structure of the minor with the
secondary structure struct the s e QBAcontains the scientific experiments to be left on

(01:29:00):
the surface of the Moon, thelaser reflector, and they're open and it
looks like they're gonna stay up withoutany problem. Columbia, Columbia, this
is Houston. We're about to loseyou on the OMNIS request high gain antenna
react mode take to zero y'all onethree five over go to pick an area.

(01:29:31):
Heal make that y'all one seven fiveColumbia, y'all one seven five.
On the high game Clent rock upunder I game right, you're ut,

(01:30:08):
The surgeon says, everything looks fine. An hour and a half of lunar

(01:30:35):
surface time for a Neil Armstrong deand the air pathic trigmometer has been deployed

(01:31:14):
manually. I guess they've been onthe portable life support systems for two hours

(01:31:36):
now. And the manual uh deploymentof the UH I like you, uh,

(01:32:03):
it'll spring that at the end ofthe string pulled off of the UH
fIF then I'll however, I wasable to reach out and get hold of
the PI did and pull it loose. Oh uh it'll be despite manually also
slugger and the panorm is complete anduh fm uhbout the limb seven and seven

(01:32:42):
thirty position at UH about sixty teen. That's Neil Armstrong to the left of

(01:33:04):
the screen. Why that stores areclosed and locked? Are here? Have
you got us the good areas theygot? Well? I think right out
on that rise out there, it'sprobably as good as any UH have.

(01:33:35):
I'm got to probably stay on thehigh ground there and uh whould be into
that crater. Uh, that's allout there, isn't it. There a
couple of cloths on these uh quiterounded large boulders those alter and coming into

(01:34:03):
view on the right, carrying thetwo experiments about forty feet out, I'd
say, out to the end ofthat next how's can be a little difficult
to find a good level upont here. I thought that next level of age

(01:34:23):
there and that'd be a pretty goodplace. They will put the urcuebre right
here all right, and hanging upto get on the other side of the
rock here, I would go rightaround that period the left there at the

(01:34:49):
in that level spot there with rivingright here is just the level and and
they will be out of the camera'sfield of view while setting up these experiments.

(01:35:28):
The boulders, uh look like thesalt and they have probably two percent
white minerals in them, white uhcristal. And the thing that I reported
is particular before I'm not I don'tbelieve I believe that anymore. I think
it's a small craters. Uh.They look like uh little impact craters were

(01:35:57):
shot top shot. If the uhI inst and I have the uh di

(01:37:36):
bismic experiment. It over now,and I'm I'm minding it, but I'm
having a little bit of difficulty gettingthe deep bill in the center wants to
uh move around and around on theoutside. But any spotennial how you're cutting

(01:38:00):
out again? Bout why do Isay I'm not having too much success in
uh bubbling the uh DSc experiment.M Uh blaser blator is uh installed in

(01:39:35):
the bubble level and uh the alignmentuh appears to be good nails as you
can Roger out, Hey, youwanna take a look at this baby,
see what you make any I foundit pretty hard to get the particularly two

(01:40:04):
I TV likes the outside and we'llgo on the inside. But little cups
unvexed and unto the concaves, thinkcurate. I believe it is I used,

(01:40:24):
and I don't think there's any helphere. Isn't it leveling device to
come up with an accurate level?It looks to me as though the uh
the coup here that the babe isin is uh now convex at a concave
over uh regular eleven. UH presson if you think of like a level

(01:40:49):
by eyeball, go ahead, okay, M the bubble they're discussing is on
a leveling device on the UH passiveSEIS monitor. I'm going on there you

(01:41:45):
go at work O show. Hey, hey, we'll stop. Stop.
Back up what I used in theUH as I was facing that the SE
the right hand solar array deployed automatically. The left hand I had to manually

(01:42:14):
tanning the bar at the far endand UH all parts of the solar array
are square of the ground. Nowthe buzzers is used to understand you did
successfully deploy both solar arrays over bychats from it and in any way of

(01:42:44):
telling whether that's lined up at gettingin the way, maybe I can get
down here. H they're a lotof the to be plenty. Hyah h

(01:43:23):
h h yah Neil, this isHouston number he guy. All right,
we've been looking at your consumables andyou're in You're in good shape. Subject

(01:43:46):
to your concurrence. We'd like toextend the duration of the e v A
one to five minutes from nominal.We will still give Bud a hact at
ten minutes. Player or heading inyour current your lap time is two plus
twelve over. Okay, that soundsfine. Reger twelve is the time expended

(01:44:30):
on the PLSS. This is Houston. If you're still in the vicinity of
the PSC, could you get aphotograph of the ball level over, I'll
do that all right, We'll geta photograph of that histon. Now,
what time would you estimate weld allowedfor the documented example over h h oh

(01:45:09):
cute. You believe the ball isright in the middle. Now, Papa,
take a picture for a RVE.H Uh. Now, this is
Houston. We're estimating about one toten minutes for the document at that point.

(01:45:31):
Hour mhm h m Colombia, Columbia, this is Houston. Over,

(01:45:59):
get from Roger would like you toterminate judging battery Bravo at war eleven fifteen
over, how about right now,Roger buys, this is Houston. You've

(01:46:44):
got about ten minutes left now priorto commencing your EVA termination activities. Over
termination activities over, Dodger, Iam at mm hmm. I can't qual

(01:47:59):
any base. It is Houston.The pactice, I think experience has been
engaged and we're observing short period pocillationsin it. Over. Neil Armstrong has

(01:48:36):
been on the surface now about anhour and fifty minutes. Chames anything to

(01:49:38):
change in the foreground. Buzz alderAnd is collecting a core tube sample.

(01:50:38):
Bob, you're watching how hard Ihave to hit it into the ground?
Uh to the tune of about fiveinches is the ud? It almost looks

(01:51:00):
wet. What a couple uh wayway when people they cut the cable?

(01:51:26):
Can uh nail as by Houston?Or do we like to hear right where
he was? I caes, that'squite nail. This is Houston. We'd
like you all to get the twocore tubes and the solar wind experiment.
Two core tubes and the solar windover. I just the cor tabes provide material

(01:52:16):
getting the next one. Maybe youcan hang away the box a little it
out the cap Buzz. This isHouston. You have approximately three minutes and

(01:53:31):
see you must come out you EVAtermination activity river termination activity ver. But
I can attend Columbia. This isHouston, approximately one minute to l o
x over minute one minute Plumbia,And do you plan on commencing your sleep

(01:54:03):
on the backside this path? Sowe'll just able uplink to you while we're
talking to the lamb over We're goingI nega that yeah, if that were

(01:54:24):
able to record in a documentary waywhere that to uh where two examples were
taking negative out. I didn't geta stereal there those but the light in

(01:54:46):
the vicinity of the solar wind.No thistsus, Houston. After you've got
the core tubes and the solar wind. Uh, anything else but you can
you want to throw into the barand be acceptable. I don't cap will

(01:55:23):
chime. I got the cat,got the cat both, okay, And
you want to pick up some stuffand I'll get the specific one throw the
solar wind and that's altern retrieving thesolar wind experiment. Mhm, buzz this

(01:56:30):
is here. Since about time foryou to start your DA close out.
I said it, thank you,rotcha. They've been on their life support
system on their life support systems twohours and twenty five minutes. Neil appears

(01:57:25):
to be picking up rocks to theright of the screen. Yeah, Neil
and buzzes. Is Houston like toremind you of the close up caner magazine

(01:57:47):
before you start up a lighter buzzmagazine before you start up home? Okay,
got that over with, you knownow that course up came is underneath
the masa. I have to pickit up with the thought, and I'm
picking up several pieces of the reallyparticular rock out here. Now, you

(01:58:17):
didn't get anything in those environmental samples, did him? Not that? I
don't think we left that. Rogerand Neil and Buzz. Let's press on
with getting the close up Gammer magazineand closing out of a sample return container.

(01:58:38):
You're explaining a little low one time. We want to keep a good
margin in those portable life support systems. I'll take it are quickly, but

(01:59:30):
this is my pocket and all thaton up the lot'em. I'll hold
it joke in the pocket. Um, I don't take a cry till they

(02:00:10):

(02:02:46):
Uh okay, and then I getthe lac l A dot box. Neil

(02:03:13):
has been on the surface a fewminutes longer than two hours buzz approximately twenty
minutes less than that, Uh,Neils, this here'son? Did the half
of blood magazine go off on?That doesn't have a return container? Offen?

(02:03:35):
H I've got, uh what's thehalf of that magazine hooked to the

(02:04:58):
already to sing it about there everythingbut that the battle three or pay that's

(02:06:09):
kindac there transferring the sample containers intothe limb cabin. Now, oh,

(02:06:30):
silmer came on, I mean notfilm fact came on. I think I

(02:06:54):
see it down. Now, don'tpull for dinner. I'd let it go.
