SC Okay.
CC For your information, when we did check
it out, that SUS i, as far as this flow the other day, it did
flow with no problem. So that portion of it does work.
SC Okay.
CC And we are probably - if - we definitely
will be checking out SUS 1 before the EVA. And we'll probably
be doing that within the next couple of days.
SC Okay.
SC Fine.

the primary loop to open up the warm flow in the secondary loop
and get that temperature up to the desired level of around 47 de-

on. At 18 hours 7 minutes, this is Skylab Control, Houston.

CC Roger, copy.
CC Skylab, Houston we're about 30 seconds from
LOS. We'll see you again over Vanguard at 21:12, 21:12.
CDR Roger.
PAO Communication between the Skylab space
station and the ground during this Hawaii pass was relatively
limited - due in part to the fact that the Commander was at the
Apollo telescope mount and the other two crewmen were performing
a medical experiment, the MO92, lower body negative pressure
experiment and the MITI metabolic activity. In the case of
the latter, the Science Pilot, Joseph Kerwln, was the subject
and Pilot Paul Weitz, was the the observer. We will pick
up the space station again at 19 hours - correction - 19 min-
utes 24,25 seconds over the Vanguard tracking site. And we'll
have the space station for approximately 8-1/2 minutes. At
20 hours 52 minutes Greenwich mean time, this is Skylab Control.

SC You're going to have to send me the EREP
operate pad again. It got all garbled about halfway through.
CC Okay, we'll do her. Is there - is the
paper reloaded? Have we got enough paper to send it now?
SC Wait a minute. He's up there loading it
right this instant. Let me see.
CC Okay, we're planning on shooting that up
to you at Hawaii then, Pete, if you got time enough to get it
changed by then. Hawaii is still about 15 minutes away.
SC He's changing it right now. You can do
it at Hawaii.
CC Okay, good show. And the only other open
item i got for you this morning is a SAP update and we can get
that anytime it's convenient.

you weren't aware of. Where I cleaned the solenoid vent port
screen, I didn't put the cap back on. So it's been off for
about a week and if you haven't had any leak in that time, I
guess it's not leaking.
CC Okay; very good.
SC We got something else for the thermal
guys to look at, Bob.
CC What's that?
SC In cleaning up, we kind of llke to get
rid of this portable fan if we can. And someone jostled
it sometime yesterday or last night, so all night long the port-
able fan was not blowing on the heat exchangers screen. If
it didn't make any difference, how about if we get rid of
that portable fan, too? Think about that for a while, please.
CC Okay. EGILVs thinking about it. That's
sneaky.
SC Yeah, we'd really like to clean this
place up. We got hoses running through hatches and lines,
and it's very bad. I don't like it. So anything you can do
along that line, we'd appreciate.
CC Okay. We appreciate that_ Pete. I guess
that fan and your SUS 2 are running down to the water tank are
your main problems right now. Is that correct?
CC I'm informed that fan was for your crew
comfort, and if you want to take it off, that's you may
so do.
SC Roger.

CC You got - -
SC - - The trainer went under TO27. We didn't
drain them out because it became obvious that we're only
floping our troubles from one airlock to the other.
CC Okay. And the problem apparently is in the
way the thing is bolted, but it's The way you have it now
you feel it offers adequate support for TO27, right?
SC Oh, yeah. It may tear up the grids more
but it it won't let T027 move.
CC Okay, what you had to do was just shift it
off of the normal holes to get it in the right position.
SC Yeah, but that's not adjust, because we
had to get some of the lock nuts-type nuts and bolts.
CC Okay.
SC We had all the activation gear. We got a
lot of bolts, but no nuts. So we had to take some out of the
grid.
CC Okay, I wasn't implying to mean the amount
of work you did. You didn't take it apart too much, did you?
CC Hey, we're going to go LOS here in about
15 seconds. We'll see you again over the Vanguard at ig:50,
and we will be doing a data recorder dump at that pass.
SC Okay.
PAO This is Skylab Control, 22-1/2 minutes away
from the tracking ship Vanguard and our next acquisition with
Skylab. From the crew's description it sounds as if they had
remedied their tripod problem simply by relocating the attach
points, instead of attaching the base of the tripod through the
planned holes, moving it over and attaching it through the grid,
using bolts and washers that they were able to come up with from
the - from the workshop. And it wasn't too clear whether they
had gotten those - those nuts. I think we said we heard Paul
Weitz describe having adequate number of bolts but having to
salvage some nuts from the - from the workshop to attach the
tripod to the - to the gridwork of the floor. And apparently
he feels that it is secure enough to provide good support
to the T027 canister. At 18 hours 28 minutes, this is
Skylab Control.

that way.
CC Copy that. And we gathered that you had
some pretty efficient ways of hanging on, some of which left
us mystified down here as how you seemed to he stabilizing
with feet, with a no apparent way of doing it. You didn't
appear to be in triangle shoes or anything, yet you seemed
to be hanging on some way.
SC Don't tell, don't tell. (garble)
CDR Well, I won't
CDR Well, it's like I'm talking to you right
now. You know, you asked how we adapt. I'm in the wardroom
and my feet are up in the ceiling and my head is over the
SIA with my back to the window. And I'm just dusting over
here, you know Just free floating up in the air with my
feet in the ceiling.
CDR Are you still there, Houston?
CC Say again Pete?
CDR We did rig the fireman's pole. You know
we've been using the strap, and we rigged the fireman's pole
the other day. And the only thing about it is as I went up
and did a couple of little wing dings around it, and I dis-
covered even more so than you see this on the other things,
that you've got to watch the old conservation of momentum,
because I started circling it stretched fully out at arms
length and went and pulled myself into the pole. And I
really got wrapped up. That's the one device I think that
you can get yourself going on where you can get flung off
and get hurt if you weren't careful.
CC We copy that. Ballerinas probably could
have made some comment on that one.

as the sun comes up.
PLT I couldn't find Washington; it was
right under the edge of a cloud layer.
SPT Roger. And it was supposed to have been
clear.
PLT Yeah.
PLT It's sure frustrating. I can see the
river and that but I couldn't quite find Washington.
SPT I think it was a high cirrus form stuff
combined or (garble), Crip. I just couldn't make out features
on the ground up the river.
CC Roger.
PLT Yeah, it was haze. I took some wide angle
shots of the whole area but I couldn't (garble) very clearly.
CC For us to know steady you can hold the
thing.

this gear (garble). Now that we got power in here and
some heat in here, to see all this gear come on just llke
it's supposed to.
PLT Yes, everything is working - -
CDR Yes, it's really working good.
CDR The stations are all good now.
CC Roger.
/r CDR At least from our point of view up here,
it looks like you're going to have good data on that tape.
CDR Probably we wouldn't have had a seven
rod extension there; so 73 on the minus-Z SAL (garble) see, and
we got that. Even with two rods you can see it out the
wardroom window.
CC Ah, so.
PLT We'll take some suitable pictures of it
for the PI.
CDR And speaking of that, the seven rod
extension went very easy. _on' d be interested in noting that
the wire bundle had memory in it going out. So I got

CC Skylab, we're about 30 seconds from
LOS. We'll see you again over Goldstone at 16:04, 16:04.
SPT Au revoir.
SPT And Houston, if you read, Pete says he's
not getting any reading on the filament chamber pressure
meter. Would you look at that or think about it for our
next pass.
CC Roger, understand you're not getting a
reading on the fliament chamber pressure on 512.
SPT That's right.
SPT It shows zero work chamber pressures.
CC Rog.
PAO This is Skylab Control. That completes
our tape replay. It brings us up to date with the conver-
sations with the crew through Vanguard. And we're about
41 minutes from reaeqnlring at Goldstone. As you heard in
that conversation, Pete Conrad requested and received per-
mission to get up to begin experiment M551 early. And he
reported that there was no indication of filament chamber
pressure. The corollary experiments officer is checking
on that report, looking at data to evaluate the situation
and see how we stand with respect to that experiment. We
did not yet have a report on the status of the experiment.
M551 is metals melting and alloy behavior experiment, deter-
mining how metals have behaved when melted in zero g, how
various alloys behave. And we're also getting television
of the activation of that experiment. Pete Conrad was op-
erating the M551 equipment and recording that operation on
the video tape recorder as we acquired at Goldstone. As that
TV is placed on the tape recorder, it is also dumped when
we're in acquisition at a stateside station. Coineidentally,
we had lines up to Mila at that time for an ATM television
dump, and as we acquired at Mila, the TV that was going on
the video tape recorder was also fed back into Houston live
and was fed out on the lines at that time. As the crew
switched over to begin feeding the ATM video, of course we
lost the picture of the M551 activity. Conrad then went back
after loss of signal and resumed loading up the video tape
recorder with the M551 activity. And we would expect to
see the entire television of M551, TV 24 as it was
planned. INCO is looking into the possibility of bringing
that TV back to Houston, or at least a portion of it during
the next stateside acquisition, which is Goldstone - Texas
on this revolution. However, it appears at this time that
the amount of TV that we could _et back would be relatively
small, on the order of 10 minutes. We'd expect about 20 min-
i utes of television to h@ve been accumulated at that time. So in
SL-II MC-899/6
Time: 10:09 CDT 19:15:09 GMT
6/12/73
event, we will not have the entire load of video tape back
during this series of stateside passes. And we would expect
to have to bring the remainder of it back early tomorrow
morning, when we again have Goldstone - Texas - Mila acquisi-
tion. We'd like to repeat also the changes in the crew
sleep and awake times as we begin changing the crew work
day, in preparation for the entry activities. On day 165,
the crew will work a 14 hour day and will go to bed 2 hours
early at 01:00 Greenwich mean time. They'll sleep for 7 hours
and on day 166 they will wake up 3 hours early, at 08:00
Greenwich mean time. On day 166, they will have a 15 hour
work day, and they will go to sleep an additional hour early
at 23:00 Greenwich mean time, so that their sleep time will
then have moved a total of 4 hours early and they will wake
up the following morning on day 167 at 07:00 Greenwich mean
time, which will mean that their wake up time has moved a
total of 4 hours early, beginning with day 167. The work
day will then run from 2:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. We're now
35 minutes 40 seconds away from reaequlring at Goldstone.
Fifteen hours and 29 minutes Greenwich time, this is Skylab
Control.

that gauge is inside of a 3 quarter inch opening, so it
takes a little bit longer to go down.

this afternoon the crew among other things, scheduled to
perform the MO92, MI71 experiments. And also continuing
with ATM, Apollo telescope mount operations. One correction
on that. The MO92, MI71 scheduled for this morning and that

CDR Okay.
PAO We have had loss of signal with the
space station through the Ascension site. Part of the con-
versation that was on this current air to ground pass had
to do with that M551 metal melting experiment. And you
heard the Commander say he thought the electron gun had
shifted approximately an 8th of an inch. He also pointed
out that it operated okay. And that the electron - but
he believed that electron beam gun did indeed shift or move.
The flight controllers here at the Control Center are dis-
cussing this anomoly. And will pass on to the crew at the
next station, which is Guam, procedures which they feel
will alleviate the situation. At 21 hours 47 minutes Green-
wich mean time, this is Skylab Control.

made one run. Processing the second run and a third run
will be made later in the evening. On the last run he
will use a material identified as tandalum, which is a
lustrous platinum gray hard metal with a high melting
point. It's used in making corrosive resistent chemical
apparatus and equipment. That replaces a metal which was
identified earlier as nickel. We anticipate having a change
of shift briefing at approximately 6:30 p.m. predicated
on the weather, and whether all of the flight controllers
can indeed make it in to the Mission Control Center on time
for a proper handover. Tentatively we have scheduled the
off going Flight Director, Milton Windler to appear and
with him will be Dr. Royce Hawkins, who will also appear and
respond to any questions relating to crew health and crew
condition. At 22 hours 30 minutes Greenwich mean time,

CC Joe?
SPT Yeah.
CC Just wanted to follow up on a couple
of those questions you answered last time for us, Joe. Yon
mentioned that the H-Alpha image appeared to move as you
approached Sunset approximately i0 or 15 seconds early.
That's a good number for us. We would like a little precision
on it if it's possible, the next couple of times you're on
the panel, if it's convenient for you to remember and just note
as accurately as you can, when the image first begins to move.
It would help us in our planning, because apparently we will
want to make sure we do cut off all observations before that
does begin to happen. And on question B, which was a little
puzzling, we tried to abbreviate too much, apparently. We had
noticed that faint features in the corona, llke a very faint
streamer, or something embedded in the coronal brightness could
be seen more clearly when we rolled the TV, and we were finding
that very helpful here on the ground, and were wondering if
you also found it useful in identifying these streamers in the
spacecraft? Over.
SPT Hi, Owen, I didn't recngnize you at first.
CC Good to talk to you, Joe.
SPT Hey, in doing this work with the corona,
are you using stuff we've sent dnwn or the training films?
CC Oh no, we're using all stuff you've sent
down, and it looks very interesting indeed. All the Pls back
there are very enthusiastic and pleased with the way it looks.
SPT Okay, I'll have to look at it - we I have
not specifically noticed anything being enhanced by rolling,
but it may be something we just missed. Yes, we'll start
timing that for you, on H-Alpha. I suspect it's fewer than
15 seconds and we'll try and get you an accurate number.
CC Okay, thanks a lot, Joe, and they are all
very enthusiastic about the pictures and the white light, and
the XUV as well. Even though the XUV may be a little faint,
it's very helpful down here with those integrated pictures,
because we can pull it out frame by frame and look at it.
SC (garbled) - the X-ray image is really the
disappointment, I guess, of the displays. And as far as the JOPS
and building blocks go, Owen, I think the format is fine. I
know you'll want to make detail changes, but I think all the
people that put those together deserve a lot of credit.
CC Thanks, Joe. Also, your answer on the X-ray
image was exactly what we were looking for. We're aware that
at the moment you probably can see very little with the solar
activity as low as it is. However, we do still feel, based
upon its performance and the perf_xmance of the PMEC, that it's
_-- doing just about what it should do. And whe_ever the activity

SPT Go ahead.
CC On the coronagraph you should be able to
see Saturn at fourth solar radii, southeast and it's moving
west.
SPT Okay, four radii southeast, thank you,
we'll look next time we get sunset.
SPT Houston, SPT. I think we had Mercury in
the coronagraph a few days ago. Would you verify that? I
saw something, I thought it was Mercury.
CC Okay.
CC Skylab, LOS in one minute. Vanguard AOS
at 23:54. And we will be dumping the tape recorder at that
time. Also, Joe, if it's convenient, there's no rush on this
one, on panel 200_ circuit breaker MDA/OWS heaters control 2,
should close that at your convenience.
SPT (garble)
SPT Houston, the heaters control breaker i
is already closed, we're closing 2.
CC Copy that.
PAO Communication with the Skylab space station
has ended over the Guam tracking site. We will plck up the
space station again at Vanguard in about 28 minutes. In the
meantime we are ready to proceed with the change of shift
briefing in the News Center briefing room with the off-going
Flight Director Phil Shaffer. At 23 hours 25 minutes Greenwich
mean time, this is Skylab Control.

okay. Now you had sent that one again, for some reason, and
it was all garbled at the end.
CC Okay. Well, we suspected something like
this might happen, Pete. We had a glitch at one of the sites
when we were uplinking; so we kept all these things in the
MOC here Just in case. So those pads around the time we had
the glitch, we're going to retransmit them.
CDR Yeah, message 2120 refers to the quiescent
switch configuration. It's something or other, something or
other. I don't think we ever got any 2120 complete, unless
it was taped yesterday or something. I don't remember it.
CC Okay, 2120 should have been the last message
up, Pete.
CDR Okay. Well, that didn't come through. Unless
you transmitted something in the last 45 minutes. You better
look.
CC Roger. We have.
CDR Okay.
CC Skylab, Houston. We're going to send to
you then the ETC pad, the shopping list, and the EREP OPERATE
pad. Does that agree with your list?
PLT Yes. Go ahead.
CC Okay; it may be stateside before we can
get those up.
PLT That's all right. What's the status of our
CSM unknown 17 aft card grade, Hank?
CC Okay, we've got a message up concerning
that. I guess what it amounts to is we think that the
switch there has got a short in it or either the secondary
coolant circuit has. We've looked at all the telemetry, and
pretty well tracked it down that it is the heaters coming on
in the secondary coolant loop. And that goes back and cor-
relates with the glitch we had a lot earlier in the mission.
Remember when we had the current spike. So we're pretty sure
now that the switch is shorted on. In other words, the system's
on - the heaters are on even though the switch is off. So when
we turn the loop off, which we did last night to keep it from
getting a MAIN BUS A undervolt, the loop warms up 'cause it's
stagnant, and that's gets it below the or above the trip
point for the heaters, and so we don't have the current spike.
PLT Okay.
CC We're about 1 minute from LOS; we'll be
coming up on Goldstone at 23.
PLT Okay.

SPT Roger.
CC Okay. Now that we've used up a bunch of
your time, Joe, and you were supposed to have been doing this
mal for us on secondary coolant loop, why don't you let us know
where you are in that, if you've started it at all. We'd like
to also tell you that the - we recognize that there is a filter
change in order to start this first ETC pass coming up here at
the states. And if we have to we're willing to postpone this
malfunction and go through and - depending on where you are.
SPT The filter change is complete. The procedure
is complete up through connection of the PCU, LSU and verifica-
tion that we're in position i. And I'm ready for - to get on
up there and start to pump on your mark.
CC Okay. We've got 2 minutes left on this
pass, why don't you head up that direction while we pull our-
selves together.
SPT And, I'm waiting for you Houston.
CC Okay. We're GO, looking at our data.
We've still got a minute and 15 seconds here, so why don't
you press right on.
SPT Okay. We're at PRIMARY.
_- CC Okay.
SPT Now we're OFF.
CC SPT, Houston. Be advised we may go - We've
got the recorders running. We may go LOS during this test.
We want you to continue right on and finish it, but we do want
to do this on SUS 2, SUS 2.
SPT Roger. Sorry. I'ii start it over again.
You want me to keep right on going through prim for 15 minutes,
huh?
CC That's affirmative. We're recording it.
We'll watch it as long as we can see you. We're going to see
you at Goldstone at 14:38.
SPT Roger.
PAO This is Skylab Control. That brings us
up to date with our tape playback. And we're about 5 minutes
45 seconds from Goldstone acquisition. As we lost contact
over Guam we were discussing with Joe Kerwin and Paul Weitz
a procedure for further troubleshooting and verifying the
coolant loops, the alrlock coolant loops. And the procedure
being discussed was with coolant loop number 2 of the secondary
loop, a procedure which invol_ed' hycllng::the temperature
control valve to gain added assurance that that valve is
modulating as it should. And we'll be getting additional
data on this stateside pass to determine, if in fact, Chat
valve as it appears is functioning normally. The weather for
the EREP pass, coming up on this revolution and on into revolu-
-- tion 447, appears to he, again, a fair amount of clouds, a fair
amount of cloud cover. Now we have the weather map up on the
SL-II MC-974/4
Time: 09:23 CDT, 21:14:23 GMT
6/14/73
monitors for the stateside portion of that pass. And you can
see as the ground track comes over Oregon, there's heavy cloud
cover for a small portion of the track that breaking out into
four to seven-tenths, four-tenths to seven-tenths, or 40 to
70 percent cloud cover, on across Oregon and into Idaho, again
hitting pretty solid overcast through Idaho and most of Utah,
and on into Nevada, and breaking out pretty much into the clear,
with exception of one small patch of cloud cover in Nevada, on
across New Mexico, and into Texas, mostly clear, zero 3/10ths
cloud-cover. And again, hitting fairly heavy clouds along
the south Texas coast and into central Texas, and then clearing
out over the Gulf of Mexico. This EREP pass, EREP ii, will be
on track 20. And as the last EREP pass scheduled for this
mission, data gathered on this EREP pass will be used in under-
standing the geologic - geographic features of the basin and
range problems of California and Nevada, and also will be useful
in determining the spectral and spatial capabilities of sensors.
These tests will be run over the White Sands area of New Mexico.
Also, information will be gathered on valley soil distribution
of the Rio Grande Valley, as well as information on insect
infestation. Volcanic activity will he studied in central
America. And natural resources studies will be conducted from
data gathered over Columbia, and also over the upper Amazon
River Valley of Brazil, and on into Bolivia. Imagery from
the SI90A and SI90B cameras will aid Costa Rico, Honduras,
Nicaragua, and E1 Salvador, and cartographic studies of these
countries. We have about 2 minutes now before we acquire signal
through Goldstone. And again, we will expect the crew, as they
have on previous EREP passes, to have their mikes in the VOX
mode, the voice-operated mode, so that we're hearing all of
their conversation as they activate and turn off the various
instruments, and call off targets that they'll be sighting through
the view finder tracking system.

that point in the Flight Plan. When the fuel cells are shut
down, a planned operation in recognition of the fact that the
CSM fuel cells are running out of consumables, the liquid
hydrogen and liquid oxygen, which are converted into electricity
through an electrochemical process - and when those fuel cells
are shut down, ii00 watts of power will be transfered to the
CSM from the workshop power generated by the solar panels.
The workshop is now operating on about 4700 watts of power.
The ii00 watts needed by the CSM will bring this total to
5800, and we have a capability at the present time from the
solar panels of about 6800 watts. So we would appear to
have a good margin of power ever after beginning the transfer of
ii00 watts to the CSM.

CC Roger. I understand.
CC Skylab, Houston. On the venting, we are
continuously ventin K some hydrogen out of the command module
that we've been aware of. It is possible that wemay have
vented some O2_ but we're not aware of that or any other vent.
SC Okay. Tell the guys - In the command
module, the oxygen was 870.
CC Roger. Copy.
CC Skylab_ Houston. We're i minute from
LOS. Vanguard at 19:12, and we're going to dump the data re-
corder there.
SC Okay.
PAO That's the conclusion of the replay of
conversation between the Skylab astronauts and the ground at
the Hawaiian Tracking Station just passed. I have an additional
announcement on the deployment of the the nondeployment
of the next parasol. William Schneider, the Skylab Program
Director, will be available for a briefing at 4:30 p.m.
central daylight time. hat's 4:30 p.m. central daylight
time in building i at the Johnson Space Center. He will be
available to discuss the reasons for not deploying the twin
pole thermal shield at this time and any other subjects that
may be of interest. At the present time we're about 4
minutes from acquisition of signal at Vanguard. Last time
acquisition of signal did come a bit earlier than we'd expected,
a couple minutes early. And we'll be coming back up again in
about 2 minutes. This is Skylab Control at 7 minutes - 8
minutes after the hour.

4 or 5 on the Richter scale and it didn't do any real damage.
SC Goodness, that must be the first in
quite a while up there.
CC Yeah. I thought things were super stable
up there. Poor American tourists are paying 19 percent more
than they expected, that is they're getting 19 percent less
for their dollars.
CC East and West Germany have applied for member-
ship in the United Nations. We're going LOS here in approxi-
mately 30 seconds. We'll have you over Vanguard at 22:27.

ground rules for this sort of thing. What would you like for
me to do?
CC Stand by.
SC Meanwhile, Houston, while you're checking
that, we found the problem with the VTR. The B CHANNEL INPUT
switch was OFF. It wouldn't again be sure which position
it (garble) be in. I guess ICOM PTT or PTT will work,
won't it?
CC Skylab, Houston. That's affirmative; those
positions will work.
SC Okay. You do not have to have the RECORD
switch ON, correct?
CC That's correct. We gave you an incorrect
answer. You do have to have the cables configured properly,
but you do not have to have the VOICE RECORD switch on SIAs
hit.
SC Okay. Well, unfortunately, we verified
that he was talking on B channel, but not at that block. And
we're going to have to put it in the checklist (garble).

greater than the temp selection that you have made on the low
rotary knob there, which we have assumed that that was the
case. The fans on signal from the TCS auto control module
sets a latching relay, so opening the logic circuit breakers
does not have an effect on the heat exchanger fans. A reset
to the relay must be sent either by the auto control module
or the OWS heat - heat exchanger fan switch to off on panel

couple of days from now. And this is day 168 or 9, and this
is due to the apparent slow bacteria growth. Out.
CC Skylab, Houston. We're about 30 seconds
from LOS. We're going to see you at Vanguard at 18:29. And
we think present configuration is - is okay for now on the
condensate dump system, so press on with that procedure
wherever you are in it and we'll get back to you on that
one at Vanguard.
CDR Okay.
PAO Skylab Control, 18 hours 13 minutes 4
seconds Greenwich mean time. We appear to have lost some
of the air-to-ground there. The crew indicated at the
very beginning in that pass that they were having some small
problem with the condensate tank dump that is releasing the
water from the condensate tank. One part of it was had
about two cups of water in it and they couldn't figure out
where the water had gone although it didn't seem to be going
out the proper way. After checking it out here they decided
that there really wasn't any problem and they told them to
go on with the procedure and to complete it. We expect to
hear from the crew again in approximately 15 minutes and
15 seconds at the Vanguard tracking ship. And until that
time should be no major problems. One thing we made more
convenient now is we have a more complete report on the
flare that was missed earlier this morning by the crew. It
turns out that the peak that was a 2 bright rather than
a 1 bright flare, 2 bright flare with an area of approximately
7 square degrees. That's roughly twice the size of the -
an area of the optical brightness that we saw on the flare
that was caught yesterday by the crew - was in active region
31. The reason it wasn't caught by the crew today is that
the crew is on the dark side of the Earth. It was out of
sight of the Sun at the time it was most active. The flare
began at 14:18 Greenwich mean time, or at 9:18 Central
daylight time. It reached itVs maximum at 9:26. At it's
maximum it - at it's maximum it was a 2 bright M3. That
is to say it had a approximate area of 7 square degrees and
it was at bright optical flare. It's X-radlation was M3,
which means that it gave off 300ths of an erg per centimeter
squared per second in X-radlation. That's almost as high
as the one yesterday, but not quite in its X-radiatlon.
The X-radiatlon going yesterday was four-hundredths of an erg
per centimeter squared per second. So this is a slightly
smaller magnetic power but larger in optical area. This
appeared in visual light to be a larger flare than the one
we say yesterday. It was however not caught by the ATM

CC SPT, possibly this will help a bit, during
the med conference we inhibited the outer gimbal angle. The
star tracker had lost the star and we got a bad data sample.
This could have been corrected, they could have forced the
contingency but the procedure that was passed up was considered
to be the optimum under the circumstances.

56 seconds from acquisition of signal at Ascension on rev
180. That's a correction from last time. We were ending

from acquisition of signal. And we expect to hear additional

SPT Hardheaded.
CC Rog.
SPT And on this 82A and B flare business, I
still don't understand if they wanted us to not use flare
mode after 4 and 16 frames remaining, but the two experiments
take 24 and 48 photographs respectively during a flare.
Are they sure they don't want me to stop using the flare mode
at some higher number? Or is our frames remaining (garble) wrong?
CC Well, the way you read that was correct.
We'll reverify if that's what they want though.
SPT Because if we wait that long they're not
going to have their calibration film left. They have to risk
it if they want to run.
CC Okay. I think the intent is that they
really want those films for calibration, but we'll reverify
that.
SPT Well you see what I mean, Crip. If a
flare happens when 82A has i0 frames remaining, and I go
into flare mode, it's all wiped out.
CC Roger, understand.

NIXON Nice to talk to you again, and Commander
Kerwin and Commander Weitz are there with you, right?
SC Yes, sir.
NIXON Well, I just wanted you to know that every-
body here has been following what you've been doing, and I
guess the way I can summarize this project is, that it
proves that - that man still matters. With all the, - with all the
technical machines and so forth that you had to work with,
it proved that when there were difficulties that the ingenuity
of men in space is what really matters. And you've really
made us all very proud with the way you've handled some
difficult problems in this project.
SC Thank you, sir.
NIXON And you' ii be returning on the 22nd,
I understand.
SC Yes, sir. We're, of course, - counting
different days. That's - I think, day 173. We're working day 168.
NIXON I see. Well, I'ii be out in California
at that time, and after you've splashed down I hope to
welcome the three of yon, perhaps when, you do maybe yon can come
up to San Clemente and we can say hello.
SC That's wonderful, sir. I'm sitting here talking
to you right now, coming up on the coast of California
looking out the window at a full Moon.
NIXON Is that right? Let me also say this,
that this is Father's Day. I understand each of you is a
father, so congratulations.

you after you get back.

call.

It's possible that some members of the ground team were not
prepared for the status report. During the coming pass we
expect that, at Ascension, this is following the Vanguard
pass, we will have a conversation between Pete Conrad and
his wife and children here on Father's Day. And that will
come at Ascension at approximately 4:14 p.m. Central Daylight
Time or 21:14 Greenwich mean time. At the beginning of the
Ascension pass, at the beginning of the next revolution
following 493 which is the revolution we're now in the pro-
cess of completing. Following the Ascension pass we do not
have an acquisition of signal again until Guam at which time there
will be a private medical conference. We expect that the
conversation between Pete Conrad and his wife and children
will be on the open air-to-ground. They do have a right to
private conversations, but Commander Conrad had indicated
earlier that he does not desire private conversation. So
we will have a conversation at Ascension with the wife and
children and then a conversation, private medical conference
at Guam tracking station on the pass immediately
following Ascension. This is Skylab Control, 30 minutes and
20 seconds to acquisition and 30 minutes and 34 seconds
after the hour.

CDR Roger. Night, night.
PAO Skylab Control at 23 hours 13 minutes
Greenwich mean time. The spacecraft has lost signal at Madrid
and is now out of communication for the next 35 minutes. We
do not expect to hear again from the crew. They have been
given a good-nlght call from capsule communicator, spacecraft
communicator, Dick Truly. Tomorrow will be another busy day
for the three members of Skylab's first crew, as they have
now gone to bed. Both Commander, Pete Conrad and Science Pilot
Dr. Joseph Kerwin will be subjects in a pair of medical experi-
ments. The first, M092, measures the movement of body fluids
from the legs to the upper body, as the result of elimination
of gravity. The second, MITI, studies the metabolism of crew
members as they exercise vigorously on a special bicycle equiped
with several medical sensors. This measures the total work
done and the effect on the crew members. In addition to several
hours of work at the control panel of the solar telescope
and it's associated equipment, the crew will prepare for it's
third excursion outside the spacecraft early Tuesday morning.
Nearly two hours, 12:30 p.m. to 2:15 p.m central daylight
/_ time, are given to advance preparations for a two and a half
hour extravehicular activity by Commander Conrad and Pilot
Paul Weitz. Early tomorrow morning before most of us are
awake, at 2:22 a.m. central daylight time, shortly after
the crew awakens, a new record will be set for the longest
manned mission in space. That record, 570 hours and 22 minutes,
is now held by the Soviet Union's Soyuz ii space station,
which was in orbit in June of 1971, two years ago. We will
surpass that record at 2:22 a.m. The spacecraft will be on
ground track number three and it's 500th revolution above the
Earth, and will be located approximately near the Congo in
Africa. That will set a new record at 570 hours and 22 minutes.
A record for the longest duration space mission. At this
time the members of the Skylab crew have orbited the Earth
a total of 400 and - over 400 revolutions above the Earth,
and have traveled a total of 9,500,000 miles. There were
calculating yesterday morning, the total amount of pay they
would get if they were paid 12 cents a mile, as government
members on travel and when they were told that it would total
more than a million dollars, they indicated they were coming
back. They thought that was enough. But Skylab crew will
not be back until Friday morning. They will be splashing down
approximately 8:50 a.m. central daylight time in a location
700 miles southwest of San Diego, California. At this time,
the United States ship, Ticonderoga, an aircraft carrier, is
on station. They're practicing for that splashdown. We have

CC Skylab Houston 3 through Canary 9-1/2 min-

CC Skylab Houston. All your pads should
be on board now.
CC Skylab Houston. Before you get too
wrapped up in that flight plan, l've got a few words about
it here. You've probably noticed on there that we had a
JOP 13 scheduled. We're going to have to scrub that. We
scrubbed it for several reasons. First off the premission
(garble) target data wasn't available to us because of the
delayed launch. So we were unable to select a suitable
target, generate the pads and get a run in the simulator last
night. Also the scheduling of the canister fine Sun sensor,
acquisition Sun sensor alignment compilation that we normally
do on (garble) 4 was impossible so that we could get the re-
quired pointing accuracy. I guess to sum it up, we Just
couldn't get it all pulled together with enough confidence to
ensure the success of the JOP, so we thought the best thing to
do was to scrub it. And we give you our appologies. In place
of it, we will be doing open housekeeping.
SPT Understand.
CC Skylab Houston, 1 minute to LOS. We'll
be coming up on Honeysuckle at 56. And in about 2 minutes
from now, at 7:22 you will become the new world champs for
longest space flight.
SPT Okay, thanks for the note, cause actually
we are all up at BMMD halfway getting weighed.
CC Roger, copy.
PAO This is Skylab Control at 7 hours 22 min-
utes Greenwich mean time. Canary Island tracking station
has had loss of signal. The next station to acquire will
be Honeysuckle in about 34 minutes. Skylab has now equaled,
and in just about a few more seconds will exceed the Soyuz ii
record for manned space flight. As you heard Capcom Harts-
field inform the crew that they will be the new world's
champions for manned space flight. Duration of the Soyuz ii
mission was 570 hours 22 minutes. The Skylab II crew has
now exceeded that mark. The Commander Pete Conrad has now
logged 1,077 hours and i0 minutes of space flight. We'll
come back up just prior to the _oneysuckle pass. At 7 hours
24 minutes, this is Skylab Control.

a little less than an hour from now, the crew will begin
advanced preparations for tomorrow's extravehicular activity.
The EVA, with hatch-openlng expected about 6:40 a.m. central
daylight time, Tuesday, will take about 2-1/2 hours. This
spacewalk will he the third during the first manned Skylab
mission, the only such activity that was scheduled before
the launch of America's first space station. The EVA tomorrow
is primarily planned to retrieve film from several instruments
on the solar telescope mount. This includes instruments to
study the Sun, S052, 54, 56, 82A and H-Alpha i, all a series
of solar experiments. Film will be recovered from those by
Pete Conrad, handed to Paul Weitz, and then returned and they
will be replaced by individual film cassettes. In addition
to that, there will be some minor repair work done by the
crew. Some material that has accumulated on one of the experi-
ments will have to be removed; it's interfering with an
occulting disc on one of the solar telescope experiments. Itls
a device that's used to block out the Sun on a eoronagraph
experiment. And in addition to that, they may deploy a small
piece of material from the solar sail, a separate piece of
material to see what will happen under conditions in the Sun-
light. Those are a couple of the things that are being
considered now. An additional thing is a possibility that
there may be some tapping done on CBRM number 15, that's a
charger battery regulator module number 15. That CBRM is not
operating. They feel that tapping on it with a hammer may
get it back into operation. One of the objects of this after-
noon's pre-EVA preparation is to get together the equipment
necessary to make those correctfons, including a small brush
to brush off the piece of material on the occulting disk,
and a hammer for pounding on that CBRM. Those are the main
aetlvites. This is a scheduled EVA, it was scheduled before
the mission. There will be a number of ErAs done on future
Skylab missions. These are planned EVAs, as distinct from those
EVAs that had to be done to make repairs to the spacecraft.
EVA scheduled for tomorrow morning beginning at 6:40 a.m.,
several hours after the crew awakens on their new sleep schedule.
This is Skylab Control at 44 minutes and 35 seconds after the
hour.

Pete Conrad will play the role of EV-2 tomorrow. EV-2 has the duty
of making minor repairs to one of the ATM batteries, that's
CBRM number 15, charger battery regulator module number 15.
That battery has been inactive since before the Skylab crew
first arrived at the space station. Conrad will also retrieve
and replace film for several of the instruments used to
photograph the Sun. And he will be responsible for brushing
a tiny piece of matter from the occulting disc of the white-
light coronagraph that -

tidal waves that followed the tremor. And the quake measured
7.25 on the Richter scale. In Washington today President
Nixon and Soviet leader, Leonid I. Brezhnev, today begin
a long planned summit conference, each pledging that the
talks would improve the prospects for world peace. Brezhnev
promised the week-long conference would justify the hopes of
our people and serve the interests of a peaceful future for
all mankind. Nixon predicted a conference would help llft
the burden of armaments from the world and build a structure
of peace. Here's one from Kyle, South Dakota. A leader of
the American Indian movement told the Senate subcommittee
on Indian Affairs Sunday, that the Indians want to be recog-
nized as a sovereign nation in their own dealings with the
Federal Government. The traditional Chief, Frank Fools Crow
and Charles Redcloud, called for the removal of Stanley Lyman
as Bureau of Indian Affairs Superintendent on the reservation.
Redcloud said a lot of the money comes on to the reservation,
but no one knows where it goes. Redcloud also asked that
liquor be banned from the reservation. Finally, here from
- here's one from Paris. American and North Vietnamese
officials resumed talks on U.S. diplomatic aid to Hanoi today
after a lapse of two months. "We seek a successful conclusion
as the contribution to the consolidation of peace in south-
east Asia. Chief U.S. delegate, Maurice Williams said: "The
resumption of negotiations was agreed in a communique signed
last Wednesday, pledging both sides to renewed commitments
to peace in Viet Nam. We've still got about 3 minutes left
here at Guam, and I'm standing by.
PLT Thank yon.
CDR If we get that CBRM fixed tomorrow we
ought to qualify for our Ph.D. in airframes.
