We've got no way of telling down here
whether they are on or not. Ya'll
commanded them on, though, earlier or
what?

fully the - the - ... grommet will not fall
off.

PLT Well, all of the ... all of the elastics

are outboard to the grommet.

SPT That 's right.

PLT Except for one of them. It's one the

_ bottom
here.

SPT Yeah, now that one slipped through.

218 18 36 43 SPT Well, I'm trying to think. We ought to

Just press on with me being real careful -
not to drag that gromnlet along the base
plate.

218 18 36 58 CDR If you can do it, that'd be the way to do it.

SPT Yeah.

CDR Now are the grommets in pos - the best

position they can be on the nut.

PLT Yeah. They're - they're where they ought

to be on all of them. Well, some of them
slipped down off the nut. And are down
behind.

CDR Maybe that's a better place for 'era.

PLT Might be. What do you think, 0w?

218 18 37 16 SPT No, I don't think they'd ought to be - -

SPT What are you talking about?

PLT Slipped between the nut and the grommet.

SF_ You talking about the elastic bands?

Q
SP9 Yeah.

218 18 37 27 SFT No, they ought to be - out of that little

channel there because I can hsrdly get them
out if they are. You see you have to get
them out by your fingers. Those elastic
hands that ought to be up on that circular
piece. You're working on Just that one
that I'm not going to use, anyway.

PLT All right. Well then, ... you are going

to use?

SPT They're mostly all that way. If you see

Shy that arenVt, I would appreciate getting
them - lifted out.

CDR Getting ready to have some sunrise, I

can see the horizon back there behind 'em.

PLT Right. Hey, that's - they're really caught

in there when they're like that.

SP_ They _re.

PLT But there's no break.

218 18 38 38 SPT No. It's sort of funny to say that yo_

can't pop the elastic but -

218 18 38 h3 CDR It,s real tough elastic. I guess we had

so many complaints of them breaking, that
they put on something really tough.

PLT I think this job is gonna give us all the

EVA time we want. Before we get this one
finished. I can't get that one that's
scresed up, there.

PLT J*nm!

PLT Okay, a little tool to stick under it.

SPT I had to get 'em with my fingers up

here. Cause every one of those that
come out, the elastic drops into that
slot.

PLT Oh, yeah.

SPT Now the only way that would be avoided

is if those nuts are screwed up tightly.

PLT No, that still won't do, - let me see.

218 18 39 42 SPT Yeah, if those nuts screwed up tightly

then it won't do that. Are all those
nuts screwed up against the -

CDR Should be, should be in there tight.

F
PLT But that last one there, with the
other - -

218 18 40 38 PLT Some nuts look like they are, but I got
one down here ... it's not down in the
slot, but it's behind the edge of the nut.

SPT Uh-ha. Couldn't get it out?

PLT No, there's a couple underneath like

that, too.

Sl°T Ye ah.

PLT Well, might just have to - -

218 18 40 56 CDR I'll tell you what you could do. You
could work along - well, maybe you ought
to try to break those three right there
now. And use those ... in some way.

Sl°T No, I'd rather wait until the end.

218 18 41 06 CDR Okay.

218 18 41 07 SPT Cause then I won't have to be bouncing

around the whole array and possibly get
them - others of them knocked around,.

CDR That 's a good idea.

PLT You want me to go back out there, Ow?

218 18 41 19 SPT Yeah, I think so. An'other rod or two

and I'll be down to you. I'm through.

SPT Two connected, now. Ready to start the

I can see this one winged bird.

218 18 43 36 CDR How's it look to you?

SlaT Mighty nice. Where's'the poles on me,

Jack ?

PLT Oh, about 3 feet. Oop - getting closer.

SPT Stick it do%m the a head ..., don't hit

me in the head with it.

PLT Hold it right there.

SPT I got it now, wait a minute.

SPT Unsnarl these lines here.

PLT Okay.

SPT Now, was that under my left arm, AI, that

we decided in the checklist to do it?

218 18 hh 15 CDR Let me see what it says. We'll do it

exactly like it says, which says here. As
soon as ladder is long enough to be reached
the ... keep the clothesline separated by
inserting arm between the lines.

PLT Hold it there, AI, we gotta - -

SPT I've got it.

PLT ... me work with it under - going under

my left arm - -

218 18 h5 09 SPT I think it's under your left arrl.

SPT I think it's under your left arm.

PLT Was it likethat?

 DumpTape218-11
Page 43 of 54

SPT No, no, under your left arm.

PLT Well, the trouble is with keeping this

line ... up.

CDR Keep the clothesline separate by inserting

arm between the lines. I guess the - the
rod would be above your arm, otherwise
it's gonna be a little difficult to pitch
it around- -

PLT Yeah!

218 18 45 31 SPT But that's the way we did it before. In

order to have a - a line that I could make
the other end with, he put it under his
left arm.

PLT Sounds like a good way to do it, then.

CDR Cause you're right if he doesn't hold it

right, you can't - you can't get in the
place to mate 'em. That's a fact.

PLT I'm turning, Ow.

SPT Okay ...

218 18 46 04 PLT Just like that.

218 18 46 05 SPT Just like that.

SPT What I'd - what I'd like is to hold the

pole and - like this you Just feed it
through .... out of my hands. Can you
hold it?

PLT Yeah.

SPT Okay, you've got the pole, now.

218 18 46 57 PLT Three down, eight-to go, Ow.

PLT Hey, we got a scissors in there we

could cut the- cut the one elastic
off.

SPT That might be the best idea.

CDR Sure could.

SPT Don't do it, yet.

218 18 h7 19 CDR If you go in the lock compartment, get

the scissors out of that thing, sving
out. It might be hard to get the scissors
in there, but you could probably do it.
Trouble is you'd have to keep coming back.
And then holding the scissors with no
tether would be interesting, too.

SPT I mean elastic just does not break.

218.18 h7 54 SPT Well, it's Just gonna have to take time,

F I guess.

PLT Hey, can we get the pole up here, now?

Have to get it closer to me. I can bring
you out, Ow.

SPT Can you hold it from rotating?

PLT Okay.

218 18 h8 38 SPT What do - it's a difficult angle.

PLT What's it - 0wen, is it - what's it doing?

SPT Well, I think I'm through making it but -

I keep hitting the other end of the rod
up on the airloek head, trying to get it
straight.

218 18 49 02 CDR That's right. That's the - that's the

reason Jack's got to have it just in
the right position on him or you can't
make the pole.

SPT Good.
F-_ Dump Tape 218-11

218 18 h9 ll CDR So he's gotta have it pulled close

to him enough, plus at the right angle.

• PLT Okay, you can push it through my hand.

SPT I had to feed a little rod out through the -

... rod. Careful now, easy, that's it.
• In a minute.

PLT Oh, oh, let's not get too much line out here.

SPT I'm not letting any out, any extra.

218 18 50 22 PLT Okay, I want the ... facing me all the time.

CDR Good idea, Jack. Never let the thing rotate.

218 18 51 03 SPT Have you tried it, twist 'eraout? It

rotates that lock ... It can be dropped
in the slot. Whew! IDkay, I'm gonna have
to stop a minute.
f_

CDR That's good, take it easy. Now many you

got assembled?

PLT Four.

CDR' Four assembled good - that's - that's okay.

Sl°T ... the fourth one, I've only got three.

CDR That's one - that's 20 percent of them.

218 18 52 25 PLT Then we have three of them.

CDR Three of 'em assembled. Okay. Most

important we don't drop the little
things. Grommets.

218 18 53 16 SPT There's the angle I would like to use. I

guess you - can push it forward toward me?
I've got to have that rotated a bit because
the alignment mark - 180 degrees. The align-
ment marks are not visible to me at that
low angle, Jack. Th_ slot that I put the

getting out of my shoes aud stand ... and

it up a hatch.

SPT All right, let's - -

PLT Seems like that's how you had all the

luck before.

218 18 5_ 56 PLT There - up there like that. Can you

reach that?

SPT Okay,

CDR Okay, (>wen. Why don_t you take a little

break on that and kind of float up sad see
if you can open that camera to 22 and see
if it bothers the lens. And then Just leave
it open this day pass.

SPT Okay. I can't tell by looking at it. I

hav_ to open it then come back and look
because - -

CDB Okay. Well, open it to 22 and then come back

8rid look. This is a_l we can do.

PLT Open it less.

SPT I did.

SPT Don't think itls too bright. What did it

look like before, Jack? Too bright?

PLT Yeah, it bloomed out.

SPT Okay, I don't think it's doing that. I'll

Just open it a smidgen more then.

working on?

SPT You Just said it - there was a pleture

which I think is acceptable.

CDH Okay. I can break whenever you're ready.

SPT ... on the next pole.

CDR Okay, good. Then yourll perfect the

technique.

PLT I think you ought to go in there and get

those scissors and cut that elastic that's
closest to you on each one. Otherwise
your hands are going to get so tired you
won't be able to put the poles together.

SPT Yeah!

CDR That m_y be true. Have to be careful you

didn't lose the poles once you did that.
Wonder where you could keep the scissors?

SPT I can cut 'em one at a time. But there's

no place to put the scissors, there's -
unless I could tether them maybe. But - -

the string isn't attached to anything.

getthe scissors - @

PLT And tie it to the hatch handle, the

blue handle somewhere, handrail or -

CDR That's what I'd try if I were you, Owen.

Just to give it a go, that might solve all
your problems right there.

FLT Okay. Okay, Owen, now where would you

like me to point that?

down a little, you're hitting those boxes.

SPT There you are.

wasn't where you had it before.

SPT Yeah. I nan put it where it is. You can't

tell what's behind you, Jack.

SPT ... that will assure you.

PLT Get my tether loose.

218 19 03 38 CDR I'll tell you one other thing we could do.

it. You could come back into the lock com-
partment, we could repress and bring those

Depress the lock compartment go out,do it

of what's going on, Story.

CC Go, AI.

CDR Okay, they've got six poles assembled,

everything'stransferreddown. Here's
been the problem. We got the little
grommets, as you know_ on the end of the
poles and so as Owen has been pulling
these poles off the fack, the little
grommets tend to roll down like they're
going off the end. Now we haven't been
able to break the elastic, it's really
tough. So there's no way to break it.
So he's been having to maneuver very
carefully - -

PLT O. - O. - Just a minute.

PLT The other end of that is between your

legs - here, you got it.

carefully out of the rack to keep - to
from losing the grommets. Now it's'been
taking time and it looks like he's going
to get it. I suggested one alternative
_lich doesn't sound too good, but it's
a possibility if he - in case he gets
tired. Namely, come,back in the lock,
bring the poles in, repress the lock, cut
this - the - -

SPT Okay, we Just got the first ll-section

pole out, Story, aud passed it on out
to Jack. V_ybe you can - no,
you've not - you don't have any video,
of course, but uh, the ].l-section pole
is now being clamped to the base plate
and, uh, it's not oscillating too
badly at all. Uh, it does oscillate
with about a h- or 5-second period,
really a slow one and, uh - -

CC ... the amplitude at the end?

SPT _ l'd say the amplitude at the moment -

when I paseed it out to Jack wasn't
more than, uh, plus or minus 3 feet, so
it's not too big an oscillation.
q,

PLT It's stable right now.

SPT And it's already stabilized, Jack says.

218 19 25 50 CC Okay, great. And you've made a lot faster

progress, uh, since _he last s_ation
th,n you made before. Are you doing
something different?

218 19 25 57 SPT Yeah, as a matter of' fact I am. In

order to get these rods out, I kick ou.t
a one foot ..., my right one, drop it
up aginst the F4 handrail, then lean
back and tug on it as hard as I can,
keeping the rods away from the, uh,
rack so that the grommet doesn't drag.
Then I have to twist it off through a -
that elastic band, uh, while bracing my
foot against Fh. So it's sort of a
complicated procedure but, uh, apparently
you do learn a little bit my trial
and error.

218 19 26 26 CC Okay, understand then. Looking at

the grommet on this TV, _m thought
 Dmnp Tape 218-12
F_ Page13 of 26 ..........

• we saw some grommets on the •

locking nut. Are they on the collar
of the rod or on the locking nut?

.- SPT They're not on the rods themselves.

• The grommets are right behind the
locking nut.

CC Okay. That's where they ought to be

and, uh, I guess you found the twisting
motion helps retract the rod.
°*

SPT Oh yea, I've been through all that.

Plastic bands are really something.

218 19 26 59 CC Okay, we solved another problem. You

•.. to. If we can be of any further q
help, let us know.

SPT Okay, we'll ... you, Story. I think

the next ride will go a little bit faster
probably, although what we're gouna do is
"- to - Jack is going to c_ne back and
then we will uh, turn this, uh, section
of rods over so that the next array is also
facing upward to me, so that I can see
them as I pull them out. Otherwise, l"m
afraid I'ii drag more across the rack
and Just pull another and .1most pull
another grommet.

I 221 00 50 43 SPT _ay. This is the SPT with a message concerning
_ -- 2" ED52. THe web formation experiment and infor-
3 mation should go to John MacLeo4 at our program
4 office here, and - in - uh - Houston, and to the
5 Science - uh -Supervisor_ Dr. Gause at Marshall,
and to the SPI, Miss Jennie Miles up at Lexington,
7 Massachusetts. Now, I Just took the photograph
.5" of the spider web on the third night of construe-
ti.on and it does look like it is a third inde-
_J' pendent web. In fact, it - uh - uh - looks like
_; there's been improvements each might. And I
_2 wanted to try to describe the method of con- :-.
_3 struotion because some of this _rill probably not
i_ ' be entirely clear from the two-(ilmensional photo-
_; : graphs. Assigningthey even come out perfectly.
L:J _ ! Last night the spider realized apparently that _
C) 17 I _-
< ,3 ! the front part of the cage was not a permanent j.
,, fixtt_re.And that - uh - the - doors could be
!9 z opened, becuase on last night's web, the second .2]
-:_ :zO web, there were at the bottom of the cage a few 2
:_ :_I of the radials which were attached to - or at -
_] ?2 least touching the front of the glass. So when
..., 2:_ I opened it up why, it disturbed the web a little .
---- "-'-'2
..... ?' bit, it caused it to vibrate an_ shake and pull
:.]-" :2 a little bit. Tonight, it appeared that the way -
25 the web is constructed, the spi_er sort of --
,.: _7 walked around on the wall_ the four-side w8!1, :"
/_ .:,J of the enclosure and strung some more-or-less - -
2.° uh - single elements diagonally across the cornor.
;< _ And then also some of'them - Well, it looks like
]; that was probably the first step, sort of dia-
32 gonals across the cornor. And then, from these
_? diagonal she managed to start stringing addi-
;: tional stringers from the - uh - one diagonal i

:5 to another. And then eventually it was about <

23 to get clear across of the diagonal and then
.;..
! she started her normal construction. But then
L_ [ in addition to that, some of these radials have
3'; other stringers tied in toward the back of the
.<) cage, and so by tightening up on these stringers,
;i she actually sort of pulled the web back away from
2 the front part of the cage a little ways. So
-'3 tonight when I opened up the doors - uh - the -
_4 the doors would not touch the we_ in any way, and
._5 it caused no - uh - no Jostling or no stretch or

: ............... pulling of the formed web. And Arabella has
been sitting there very comfortably right in
. the center all during the daY. And so if she
continues her past pattern, why, I suppose she'll
spin another web every day or so. I don't know
how long - uh- this might go on.

221 O0 53 44 SPT Just a moment, let me - uh - uh - let me stop

herefora moment, i

221 O0 53 59 SPT Yes, I see the experiment actually calls for

spinning only three webs during the entire
_ experiment. But now actually we 'ii want to get
!i a few more photographs than that. We'll go _:
ahead use this Nikon to take photographs for
_ the next few nights as well. But I think we
<9 _: i ought to be thinking about what else we can do. :_
"< i? If I followed the procedure, of course, I'd
_ Just bottle the spider back up and throw Arabella
2_ _d her back up, and the water vial, and so L
_- 2! forth away. But there might be some other in- _
-7 -,,_ teresting things we can do, but if it doesn't
• ", take up very much of our time to go ahead and
.......-;- "z leave the enclosure. I think I'ii probably want
t5 to take if off the domed lockers and put it -
• _ down some place where it's a little bit more -
;_ out of the way. But alternativeswould be to
f_,) " try to put Arabella back in the vial and release
• the backup spider and see if the backup spider
,_ ._ follows the same procedure all over again.
• Alternatively, I' - I'd appreciate some words on
this independently. I'd like to know what these
._ i spiders can eat that we have on board. Could we
_ put any sort of vegetable or meat, obviously no
_ live food in their web and would the spider
_ consume it? And so, if there's anything that we
$2 could feed the spider or spiders to keep them
': alive a little longer? And what of the possibi-
3: _ lity of putting both spiders in the cage at the
_ . same time? 1%mderstand one will eat the other.
I And does it make any difference to anybody, or
!_ : is that the only way to provide a little bit of
_ _ extra food perhaps for one or other of the
_; spiders. So, - uh - I would appreciate it if
_5 sometime tomorrow this word could be transferred
_ to Dr. Gause and John MacLoed - uh - in Houston
_ and also and in particular to the student PI,
._ .... Miss Jennie Miles and let them get together on a

i is turning tan - very much a tan color. That

which is not exposed to the Sun is still white.
On the conn_d module, it's starting to turn
a little bit also from discoloration from the
part that looks at the sun. And then there's
a darker brown line, not that brown, but
a darker tan that runs underneath the hatch
eire,,m_erantially over to a point near Al's
rendezvous and docking window and his side
window and then it runs up_ between those two
windows. And then hack around - along circumferen
tially along the top of the hatch over to my
rendevous window. Now, it's pretty hard to
see quad B as well as quad A. I notice that
both A and B - the quad package itself appears
from this point to be pitted. And it appears
to have been heated rather well on the sort of
helical structure upon which the - the thrusters
are mounted. The skin around quad A is blistered
• and some of it has flaked off. Thats Just the
outer layer .... at quad B, Just around the
/-_ edge a little bit. [et's see. Anything else
you want to know about the quads, There's some -
a little bit of point missing around the quads -
" quad A, that is and it's probably pretty much

CC Okay, fine, Jack.

PLT Okay, al_d in working around here, it's probably

worthwhile to compare working in a zerog
here with Working in a water tank, and probably
the biggest thing I've noticed in comparing the
two is that it's one beck of a lot further to
the _ottom of the pool.

218 22 14 56 CDR (Laughter) Great. Hey, Jack, get higher. You're

5 of them, where the discoloration is greater
there than the rest of the vehicle.

CDR How about above the EVA hatch, towards the STS?

218 22 16 39 CC Copy that, Jack, and while I've got you there,
Just a reminder when you're cranking open the
SI_9 to do that extremely slowly because there's
a tremendous gearing down coming from the motor
to the mechanism and the motor speeds up very
rapidly when you're cranking that experiment
open.

PLT Okay. I really can't see any evidence of any

glycol streaming, Story, on the side of the MDA.

218 12 0_ 24 SPT Ckay, this is the SPT on channel A with

record information for the Pl, Dr. James
Frost, on M133. Okay, Jim, I took the cap
off for the 3rd night here stud I estimated I
had 6 hours of •fairly good sleep last night.
I did wake up for i interval of same length
during the middle of the night. About the
only time I have done that for the whole
9 nights, so far. Now, also, it's slightly
worth noting that each morning tat l've
awaken for the last 3 nights with this cap
_ff, i've wwaken with a slight headache, not
much but Just a little bit of a slight
headache. No partictLlar area or anything
like that involved but Just a very genersl
slight headache ; might be associated with the
electodes. The cap - wearing the cap is
not particularly bothersome, probably a
little less bothersome thau it is in i g
because yuu don't have to sleep on any of the
°'elec - the electrodes. And one other thing
_ i've noticed on each of the 9 nights so far,
every night that I've been up here, and
within a hour to an hour and a half after going
: to sleep, I wake up briefly. I don't
know whether that's the normal cycle of down
to a deep sleep and back out again, which I
guess on the orde_ of an hour to hour and a
half, hut that seems sort of surprising that
this is so regular on all 9 nights. But
after this 1 hour to haou and a half, I wake up
very briefly then go back to sleep." That's
all the informaticn I have relative to M133.
That goes to the FI, Dr. J&ves Frost.

219 0_37 52 PLT Hello, space fans, this is Jack on channel A.

The subject is M509 for my f_lends Ed Whitsett, :
Br_ce MeCandless, and Lou RI_on. Battery
er 7, was checked on da_i219 at 0_:20.
the following readlngs, starting with
cell number i. Cell number i, 1.311, 1308,
i._08, 1.311, 1.306, 1.309, 1.309. 1.310,

I._15, 1.314. Cell 21, 1.3_, 1.307, 1.313.
Total Battery was 30.1,

219 04 29 00 PET And _hat's enough of that.

219 0_ 02 02 CDR T_Is goes to Gerry Carr, Bill Pogue, and

•:, B_II Frome, and Ed Gibson. 8nggestlon: Why
" d_'t you fellows hrlng up s_e regular
. toothpaste, the kind that ycM like, instead
of using this Nasadent? Yo_ don't need to
.:_ swallow it. You can brush w_th it, Just a
" little hit of water out of the water gun, and
then spit it in a tow - a t_l or a - a wipe,
and then throw it away. And then you can •
d_ink the rest. This Nasade_t doesn't feel
li_e it's cleaning your teeth; it doens't
leave a good flavor in your mouth. And at
the end of the meal, when ycal take - taste
this, it kinda spoils the meal, whereas regular
toothpaste leaves you nice _d fresh. There's
nothing wrong with this stuff, except it
Just doesn't have a - much of a zing to it and,
._ personally, I'd prefer to have - no, I might
rephrase this and say, pers_ally, I think
yoU'd prefer to have the other. That's the end

ver aecurately, then we can go %o the high

no_ 19:00, so it was a pass _st me - medating
thi_ time. New that's the _ in which at
about the last 8 minutes, we iBad the apparent
fla_e indication. I'm convi_ed that it was
a s_all flare with X-ray emiS_lon because the
... intensity count exceeded iS0. The
beryllium averages dipped do14_ to l, and I
bel_eve that the beryllium cc mt at that
tim_ was greater than 3100. i know to check
th_down-link telemetry deli= imtary Just to
make_ sure. But the whole eve I lasted on the
order of i0 minutes or so. iry fortunately,

thi_k there is a good chance that they will

particularly Art White and B_l
i!
Keathley,
an d to our flight planners as@oelated
wiTJn the ATM operation, is a mote on
_. th_ behavior of the H-alpha _ividic°n
or camera system. Oecasiona%)y - and
it iseems like this was report@d earlier
on mission l, but the explanation was
ne_er clear to me until I saWlit.
Oeqasionally when it is turne_ on, and
I _elieve that it is only wh_ H-alpha 2
is fully zoomed out, the ima_ will
appear very bright but then t@lescoping,
then pointed outward as if -_omething
lime a zoom lens rapidly telescoping -
way in and then way out. It _S going to
be a bright image then, star_ng at
the outside, filling the full television
screen Then it will teleseQ_e down
to a point where it's only fl/ling a
portion of that. Then it will zip in
and out, telescoping in and q_t, perhaps
once a secondwith a ratherhTightimage.
Apparently, this could be " ""iremedied -
remedied each time by simply !$aking the
zoom out of full max and zoo_ng it a
little ways and then it'll s_@p and
appear normal and mayhave nOlmore
problems for the rest of the i_aY.

220 18 19 19 SPT It seems like it only happens when it's

fiZst powered up. And I'm nQ% sure

th_'s an unusual phenomenon i@nd once
th_ ... going to be thinking @bout it,
theb" can understand how this telescoping

220 00 53 28 SPT The following question on channel A goes to

the A_._ people, A_ Czar, and A1 Holt,
particularly to AI Holt in Flight Crew
Support Division. AI, I notices on
building block 33 - building block 36,
JOP 4A, that it lists four XUV time
wavelengths toward experiment 320,
3 - plus - 20. It's ... has three different
exposure lengths on it 1040 and 2 plus 40,
all of which together totals 3 plus 20.
Now I had interpreted that before as
meaning that there was one exposure of 3
plus 20 from the way that the ... was
written. Could you let me know as soon
as possible if that does not mean one
exposure of 3 plus 20 but instead the
various different exposures I better set
up on the PAD. I suppose the answer must be
the last one, but I'd like some
clarification on it.

220 00 54 33 SPT End of message frc_ SPT to AI Holt and to

F the A_ planners.

220 01 13 3_ CC Skylab; this is Houston. We're over

220 01 16 06 SPT Okay, this is the SPT on eb-nnel A decreasing

the lasting stem rod which is over about
01:i0 Just passing. First of all, I have
your earlier question for AI Holt and some
of the A_ PLs about the PADS which you
sent up which gave three times for an _L
HUV exposure. I now have that cleared. I
think that that was for a JOP ---, which
I failed to perform on the last orbit. I
got interested in active region 85 and
overlooked the fact that still had not
completed the accruing work for NRL or
JOP - or JOP 12B. So if the Schedulers
F-_ would please take note of that and since they
 /

Dump Tape 220-01

Page 2 of 2

have if possible, a tomorrow or the next

day, a new effort to do JOP 12B I'd appreciate
it, So I overlooked that. As far as what
was accomplished I was briefed on the real
time loop to work on the very bright spot
that still doesn't actively deversify
with the first part of the orbit. Large
- ... - identify as the large spot and at
this time there were three trailing spots.
A very bright spot showed up about the middle
- alongside the middle of the trailing spot.
To this fellow's eyes, only a few odd
seconds in diameter it appeared, and a
contrast of fire or i0,000 of detector three
as opposed to detector release to about I00
went off the spot.

CC Okay. Pick it up again.

220 01 17 46 SPT So I did a MIRROR align scan across the spot

and then a GRATING AUTO SCAN and an
abbreviated MIRROR AUTO RAST_ for 55;
-- at the same time, took a 2 plus 40-second
SHORT WAVE LE}_GTH e_posure for XUV that
frame number 1520. Following that I went
oVer to the prominence program schedule and
XI;V M0N shows the prominence extending far
out into the corona ° and did complete the
J0P ... direction Building block 36 as
specified. Then I wes supposed to do JOP
12B and I forgot it. Dick went back and
picked up a copy with items number eight in
active region 85. And still a number of
bright spots are showing up in the network
but ... 56,55 and XUV data in that general
area. _"_at's the end of the de briefing

220 02 57 58 PLT End of message.

220 03 0h 50 PLT _ay, this is Jack on channel A, space fans.

The subject tonight is EREP. I have in
f_ont of me the adjustments I made on S192
to get it into proper alignment. Going back
quite a ways in history, but I'll rec,ll as
best I can and - The first things that we did
with EREP was - The S192 - was to loosen the
cooler and replace it on this mount. And
that same night, before I left, I - adjusted
the X and Y meter, X and Y dials for Just
a couple of minutes to see what I could do
with them without adjusting the focus. And
I noticed that without adjusting the focus
at all I was able to - by Just adjUsting X
and Y - I was able to raise the left meter
to 75 and the right meter to 27 percent.
That concluded the operation for that night.
I _idm't h_ve time to _o ar_ more and the
following day or two, why you gave me
confirmation to go ahead and make - go
through the complete al_gnment procedures s
which I did. Now to give you that data it
will require you to read five col1..ns.What
yOU should first do is make a col1-.n headed
"focUS". The next column to the right .
J_]C _.o: ':_ ....

.................................... M. __

i should be the "left meter;" the third .....

2 column should be "right meter;" after
3 that we wa/t 5 minutes; next the Y and
-' X adjustment begins the fourth colz_nn
s which should he labeled "left meter"
J and the fifth coltmLn, labeled "right meter."
7- So trader the first coltmm, which is
labeled "foCus", you should write the
9 first line as is, without touching the
!c focus. I was able to get in the second
:_ column, left meter, 75 percent. In the
:_ third coltmm, labeled "right meter,"
:2 27 percent. And after waiting, then the
1_ next step that I did was go back and adjust
":5 the focus.

,'"_ ]7 220 03 07 38 PLT So starting out with line 2, I went clockwise

__ _ one-twelfth of a turn. I believe that the
19 night preceding I gave you how many lands
-_ _ and how many ... were visible on that focus
3_ [J- a_udgment - adjustment. But at any rate,
l_ 2"_ the second line is "if you clockwise focus
F: Z_ one-twelfth turn". Okay, the meter reading,
- left : 25 ; right, 27. I then waited 5 minutes,
i:i.. 2: a¢ISusted Y and X to get, in your fourth col,rm-,
-- :: for the left meter, 76 percent; right meter,
,- - 32 percent. Third line, I went clockwise on
<- 2 , the focus another twelfth - we'll c_11 that
2_ two-twelfths; that gave a left meter of 76
'..," 3,_ and a right meter of 45. I was . .. at that
31 point, but I didntt went to keep waiting 5
?_ minutes for the adjustment Y and X because
._ I didn't have that much time. So I kept
_.-: adjusting the focus. I adjusted clockwise
_-: three-twelfths, that's one more twelfth.
_._ That should be your fourth line, "clockwise •
_4 three-twelfths . On the focus, I gave the
35 left meter 79 and the right meter three-eighths.
3_ Fourth line, the focus went clockwise to the
43 four-twelfths position. Left meter read
_= 80, right meter read 40.
42
43 220 OS 09 12 PLT The next line, I went and adjusted the focus
4._ again. I went clockwise to five-twelfths.
45 Left meter read 80, right meter read 45.
40 At this point I decided to adjust left and
_- right so I waited 5 minutes ; so on that
_ same line over on the right, fourth col,_,- ._
you should write that the left meter was
JSC _ .....8_ '_ :-__ then ad4usted to 80, and the right meter was
adjusted to hO, which isn't so much of an

....... improvement. Okay, the next line. Under

the focus I went to six-twelfthsposition.
' Left meter read 81; right meter, 44.

220 0B 09 57 " PLT I didn't wait and I went right back and
adjusted the focus again. I went clockwise
to seven-twelfths position. That gave the
left meter an 82 and the right meter a 4T.
Again I adjusted the focus. I went clockwise
again to eight-twelfths position. That
gave left meter 82; right meter 46. I then
waited 5 minutes and adjusted Y to X - Y
stud X ... in your fourth col1-,n, 83 for the
left meter and 50 for the right meter. Went
back and adjusted the focus again to the
mine-twelfths position. That gave left 83,
right 50. After a 5-minutewait and another
adjustment, that gave me in the fourth col1_n
8_ percent and 52 percent on the right meter.
¢_ay, then I went and adjusted the focuses
again, clockwise to ten-twelfths position.
This gave me, on the le_t meter, 84; on the
F right meter 6_. Wait 5 minutes, adjust XY,
get left meter of 8_, right meter of 55.
Okay, adjust focus again to eleven-twelfths
position; that gives left meter 85, right
meter 60. Wait 5 minutes ; adjust left/right ;
get left meter 85, right meter 62. Okay,
then adjust focus again to twelve-twelfths
/: position. Get left meter 82, right meter
73. Wait 5 minutes; adjust YX; get left meter
85, right meter 61. Okay, focus again, we go
to the thirteen-twelfths position. Don't
have any numbers for left to right meter, but
after I waited 5 minutes and adjust it again,
I get left meter 85, right meter 60. So
we're getting close.

220 03 12 12 PLT Ckay, the final focus adjustment was i - was

back one-twenty-fourth of a turn counterclockwise.
So from the clockwise thirteen-twelfths
position I didn't read the left/right meter,
I Just waited 5 minutes and picked up Y and
X; got on the left meter 85, right meter 65.
That was the final focus setting. Thus I
calculated to be clockwise twenty-five-twenty-
fourths turns from its original position.
After this I adjusted the X control to
....... _mize the right meter, but not permitting
the left meter to get less that 82 percent,
JLC iL_:_ ::,_.: _:_ :'J l,faich is 3 percent below its m_T_mum range. ;-c
 Tape 220-02
f--_ Page h of 6 ? ...............

: Thus my final readings were : left meter

82 percent, right meter 66 percent.

' 220 03 13 32 PLT Ckay, this is Jack again on EREP S192

5 -1_gnment. I did the thermal alignment
according to the checklist on page 10-9.
• • I could adjust the meter was - the meter
was reading, 12-1/2 percent_ I did the -
I could not g_et it to read greater than
12 percent. B_r using X of .52_ or Z -
s_d Z of .518. Let me correct what I said.
The micrometers were set at .527 X and
.518 Z reading 12-1/2 percent. I could not
change that meter reading by changing those
: micrometer settings; therefore, I went to
= your first troubleshooting procedure which
said to set X at .h77 and Z at .527 and to
L_ rotate the focus one turn towards the Dewar
from the approximate stop nearest the
": _ micrometer. That didn't do any good either.
" The meter ril - still read 12-1/2 percent
twelve and a half percent.

220 03 15 09 9LT £_ay, now changing the micrometer from that

position did not permit the meter to go more
than 12-1/2 percent again. So I wonder if
though the thermal square search pattern for
the primary cooler/detector on page i0-ii
is modified by your message. And I went
through all of those steps starting at X equals
.477, Z equals .527 and I didn't get anything
until I got down to 726 when I Just happened
to notice out of the corner of my eye that
the meter flickered a little bit. And it
turned out that at an X of .540 and a Z of
.495 the meter shot up to the big sen of 18
percent. And I found that - that X eq,,-ls
.537 and Z equals .490 I got the maximum
reading I could get by twiddling - twidd1_ug
X and Z that was 20 percent, max reading.
Anything different than that gave a lower
reading. Therefore, I went back to the
procedure again, which told me to go to the
right meter peaking. Okay, I did the right
meter peaking and I 'm believe that your
procedure had me start out with the focus.
_. One turn off the ... stop nearest the
....... micrometer, that's correct .......

: _.................... right meter, then we wait five minutes and adjust.

2 : You get in th@ third column which is, again, right
! meter. The fourth column is X micrometer end the
_ fifth column is Z micrometer. So, starting from
._ i 19 percent for the right meter, with X equals
.537 end Z equals ._90, your first line should
read this way: I went clockwise, looking from
the micrometer in, one quarter of a turn as
specified in the procedure. That gave a meter -
a reg meter reading of 19 percent. I waited
5 minutes then adjusted the meter end adjusted
the X end Z controls. That gave a right meter
reading of 22 percent. X was 5 - .540; Z was
.490. Second line was clockwise again one
,_ quarter of a turn more. It gave the right meter
a 2_ percent, wait 5 minutes end adjust, gave
the right meter a 30 percent; X read .545; Z was
.490. Okay, the third line; clo_se again one
quarter of a turn gave the right meter a 34 percent.
Wait 5 minutes ; adjust; right meter reads
_0 percent with X at .548, Z at .h91. Fourth line:
adjust focus one quarter turn more, which is one
full turn clockwise from the starting position.
That gave a meter rea_ing of 43 percent. Wait
5 meats - 5 minutes and adjust, give the right
meter a 45 percent. X was .546; Z, .491. I
attempted to adjust the focus either side of that.
I noticed that when I went back counterclockwise
Just a little bit, the meter went clear down to
12 percent again and didn't want to come up very
roach. As soon as I touched it again going back
clockwise, it would ccme up to its original
45 percent reading. It happened each time I
touched it.

220 03 19 h5 PLT So I felt that I'd maximize it to its fullest ex-

tent; I tried to go clockwise a little more; it
• didn't do any good; went back counterclockwise
it went down to 12 percent. So I came back
clockwise to its - the last position I read you
ene, f_il] turn off its initial - its original
position, and I quit right there because I ad-
mitted I couldn't do any better and didn't appear
to have any better luck by changing things and
-7 I felt that if I'd gone counterclockwise one
more time maybe I'd never get it back up. So,
I left it at _5 percent at the right meter and

220 15 I0 47 SPT Okay, %hls Is the SPT on channel A, debriefing

the last ATM.r_n, which was Just completed
at about 15:10 GMT. Ah, first of all, JOP 6
has been changes for this flight with those
new extra time exposures on 82A and 3. Step A
can no longer be done in anything like 7 mlnutes.
This morning it took me from 38 to 15 on the
time remaining, which is a little over
20 minutes to complete step A. I was distracted
by several other things but particularly with
the time exposures that were sent up, it is
at least a 15-mlr._teJob to complete step A,
_; end there should be some appropriate time
:. allowance made. For each of those time
.. eXpOsures you had to do 82 • and B separately,
not overlapping as is shown on the building
; block. That stretches it out. Then the times
" involved were up to 4 minutes, which stretches
them out further and then you are also dis-
traeted by four other experiments that have
to be managed. So the 7 minutes on step A is
e_npletely tmreasonable. It is at least a
15-minute time hloc_ and as I said it gives
me a little over 20 minutes to do it today.

220 15 II 53 SPT Therefore on step B, it could not completed

on the lest orbit. I did cu-mpletedown
to the first truncation Point in time, uh -
: 20. On this 55 experiment, I gave it two
grated auto 15 cans instead of three and uh,
the 8054 and 56 had their exposures - the
last exposures - c_t Just a little bit
short for the JOP. Then I gave it a J0P 7
in the last couple of minutes. 80 that's
the only partleular _omment. Oh, yes, there
was a JOP 12 DELTA f_eheduledat the end of
this. ths_ may have been scheduled because
_t_I uh one time re_orted that I didn't get
& chance to finish it last night. Now we
did get that JOP done on Jack's last orbit
last night and so it is possible you do not
need to schedule another 12 DELTA since it
was done uh last night uh instead. 8o we

220 19 50 01 CDR Okay, this is the CDR completing his, uh, run on
the ATM Everything went okay As I reported real
time, I did not get down-link on at 40, so I put
it on the, uh, VTR, where you'll find it.
Obviously I didn't roll as suggested, because I
was performing, uh, JOP 6 and I _mmted a steady
roll, uh, uh, that's right steady roll. Uh, one
thing that surprised #m is when I started doing
uh, J0P 4A, that the uh, small prominence was
putting out much more UV than the large one, and
also that the INC[?S DEFECTOR 3 - turned out to
be right on the limb of the Sun as opposed to
either in on - in from the limb or out further in
on the prominence. Now that's the point I chose,
as I reported real time, and uh, is this the tech-
nique you would like to have us use, uh, as we
continue on, uh, the rest of the 50 days? The,
uh - I started, uh, the last 56, uh, short, patrol
short after the time had decreased past the 350
mark, assuming that perhaps you would be able to
get some data as we drifted through the atmosphere.
F_ I don't know whetheryou can or not, but uh, I

220 20 41 15 SPT Okay, this is the SPT on Channel A record,

discussing the M131 0Ol performance that I Just
• went through with, uh, Jack as the observer.
Answering the questions after the end of the 0GI
test; I have a sense of rotating, uh, I did at
the uh, level 18. I can feel it, uh, as, uh,
physical, uh, sense of rotation. I did notice
also that the line - the little horizontal dart
bars, in the vertical bright line, did rather
frequently, have a tendency to move dowu_ when I
first opened my eye. It _as rather like, uh, the
uh cytoplasm streaming in a leaf that is another
one Of our experiments that we perform here. It
actually has the appearance of uh, a little
#p_ Dump Tape 220'07

bubble or so, the little dark bands, meaning the

bubbles, moving down along the, uh, bright line
strip. And one additional comment: Yes, I still
find that I get sleepy whenever I put these
goggles on. As a matter of fact, two of _ entries
on step 8 - level 8, were "no response" simply
because uh, I had waited to long and Jack had to
remind me again that he was waiting for an answer.
And by the time - by that time there was no more
opportunity to sense the rotation. But two of my
"no responses" on level 8 were essentaily because,
uh, I'd become too drowsy to noticeably respond to
the first tap on the shoulder. No other comments
on the OGI portion. We'll be moving now into the
motion sensitivity.

220 20 42 49 This is, uh, Owen out.

220 20 50 1"2 SPT Okay this is the SPT recording comments on

channel A about the, uh, motion sensitivity run
on MIBI that l'Just completed. The information
goes to the bioned people, in particular to Dr.
_* Earl Miller up at Pensacola, and Dr. Jerry Homack
[?] here at the center, and uh, those others inter-
ested in 131. Just completed 150 head movement
with no symptoms at all at 20 rpm s , and pretty
much like Jack did the other day, I guess. And,
uh, I Just commented that Jack ... had been the
same with him, that uh, there were, uh, - I was
even an easier run than it was on the ground with
SCOP/DEX. Of course, we've had no drugs up here
at all. Uh, I had the impression that, Jerry and
Earl, that uh, uh, the gyro-tumbling effects that
we did notice on the ground, and which I commented
uh, had sort of decay time of, oh 3 or 4 seconds
after each head movement when we were using the
SCOP/DEX on the ground. We would see the gyro-
tumbling and that would decay as soon as the
head movement stopped. Most of that was missing;
uh, I could feel the coriolis forces, but I was
missing most of that gyro-tumbling phenomenon.
And it was not necessary for anything to be
damped out at the end of the head movement, There
was simply no unpleasant sensation associated
with the head movement. So I'm confident I'm
ready to go on up to 30 rpms uh, with uh, no
difficulty, and I have found that it's uh,
J

220 21 lh 55 SPT Uh, it's gone beyond even those desensitization

runs, uh, that we did before launch, so, uh, zero

Although it's also my impression that, uh, in - in
whatever way, stomach awareness is communicated
by your, uh, vestibular apparatus, Zero g has
some other channel, un, some different path to
conununicate itself to your stomach that is
essentially unaffected by the desensitizing _dth

220 23 13 36 SPT On channel A, reference again to the _K)92 run

that we ran a few minutes ago, with, uh - _rith,
uh, me as the subject. Uh, I forgot to note as
a .., that we moved the saddle for, uh - my
position from 9 to 7. And the same thing is
going to be done for both Alan and J_ek. They're
going to be moving theirs up a couple of notches,
also. We find that we're tucked down a good deal
further into the pan by the negative pressure,
and - as compared with the uh, one - situation.
And uh, this puts the, uh, plates Just above my
hip bone and about I've - my understanding of
where it should be, and tNerefore places the -
the vacuum over the proper portions of the anatomy.
So I think it's a proper location for zero g,
even thou@h it is two notches different from
that which we used down in the one g. And this
imformation goes to the biomed people, particularly
the M092 PIs. _;en out.

TD4E SKIP

f-.

221 Ol 41 4h SPT Okay, this is the SFT at the A_ panel. I'm

debriefing' a first A_"S_run. We haven't reached
test stage yet, but we have reached the point
where I've got building block 28 started, which
is JOP hA, Step 7. _}ow there is a question
about how far we should be pointed off the limb
and how far away from the prominence. It's not
certain that preceding prominence setting we
were pointed out above the limb st _ull. As I
understand it from the CDR, he maximized detector
number 3, and that may have maximized Just uh,
right at the limb. And as a result, what I've
done here is to go to the prominence which is
most obvious - ... of the prominence that's most
apparent in H-alpha. And then moved out 25 arc
seconds above the limb as measured by the limb
scan of 82B; 25 seconds - arc seconds the limb,
and then I had rolled, oh, I'll give you the
roll coordinates here. It's 91us 9060 on roll.
Up/down is minus 31, left/right is minus 972.
That's the coordinates of the point to which I
am now looking and that's - that's as I say
again, 25 arc seconds above the limb. And at
J
J

f--, _,mp Tape 220-11

Page 2 of 4

this point I have initiated the building block

28. So I thought at giving you some background
information, but I'm not sure what sort of
briefing information I had from the prominence
itself. And on the earlier building block l, J0P
6, that went off fine except for S056's door was
stuck closed at that time. I didn't get it open
until near the end of that uh, building block i.
I did have time Just to get in the patrol short.
And since we're getting the patrol normal now
out here at the ed_oe of the Sun, why, hope that
would at least partially compensate and give you
at least about the same exposure, even though not
pointed at the ss_ne location. Okay. So that's
the debriefing on the first run, and if there are
any other alterations, I'll let you know.

221 01 44 34 SPT Oh, one other comment. I do appreciate having

the _i_ modified so promptly, and, uh, that did
enable me to get that _ done without any
difficulty in the allotted time. A couple of
F. those shorty manual exposures can be handled, but
the longer ones, the one in 4 minutes just can't
be worked in without stretching it too far. So
I appreciate your very quick response there. This
information goes to A1 Holt and to the other
flight planners and tO the ATM personnel.

221 01 47 18 SPT SPT with more information for the ATM personnel.
There's no trouble in seeing these prominences
out - 20 to 30 arc seconds above the limb of the
Sun. If it's desired to point at bright material
out of these locations, and if filament 23 is
representative of what we may expect, I think it
is quite reasonable for us to point that far. The
XUV mod can also be used to indicate the presence
of activity. For example, there _re some other
prominences that appeared to be as good as some
of the 20 - prominence 23. For example, there is
another prominence almost directly off the west
limb at this particular time which looks at
H-alpha a bit more interesting than prominence 23.
However, the XUV mod does indicat ... X-ray _ave
length is much brighter down here around
prominence 23 than at the - directly at C09 zero
on the west limb. So that can also be used to
indicate the presence of bright material if you
jJ

D_np Tape 220-11

Page 3 of h

want to point further off. And I think we can

do so with the displays we have on bosmd. Give
information to the A_4 Science Room.

221 Ol 48 54 SPT More information for the ATM Science Room. There
was a question sent up earlier about whether
or not there was ally difference in the appearance
of the filament from any doppler shifts on the
east and west limb - correction, that's sunrise
and sunset as we go around the Earth's limb. And
my first impression is I haven't noticed any,
but I have also not been able to give it a very
accurate test. I've not hkd the time to really
look at a prominence and get an idea and find
out what it looks like and check it again 45
minutes later. IT's possible that photograph s
will help on that, but again we' re Just not set
up to take that many photographs right now. On
top of that, at least as far as active region 85
is concerned, the filaments are changing so fast,
they'll definitely change over a period of 45
minutes. So I can't give you a good answerto
the question now, and I may not be able to for
several days. But my first impression is there is
not obvious difference due to doppler shifts or
to sunrise or sunset intervals. This may tell
you something also about the H-alpha filters
where their tether (?) band is located. In fact
that may be the way to answer the question. But
whether that or - it's a question of whether or
not we shouldn't have pointed something or
whether ... do differently; either way that's the
best answer I can give you at the moment.

221 01 51 43 SPT One more bit of information to the ATM Science

Room from the SPT. We've got a lot of JOP 7 data,
all at sunset, from the various runs recorded
yesterday and today so you might bring this to
the attention of ... Timothy (?) in particular
and also Dr. Robert IIudson over in Science
Applications. This information is last minute
information and should go to him as well. SPT out.

221 02 05 23 SPT Okay, SPT about to power down the panel, and I'm

3 m_tion should go to John MacLeod at our progrsm
office hers, and - in - uh - Houston, and to the
Science - uh - Supervisor, Dr. Gause at Marshall,
and to the SPI, Miss Jennie Miles up at Lexington,
Massachusetts. Now, I Just took the photograph
= of the spider web on the third night of construc-
tion and it does look llke it is a third inde-
pendent web. In fact, it - uh - uh - looks llke
there's been improvements each night. And I
wanted to try to describe the method of con-
struction because some of this will probably not
_'_ be entirely clear from the two-dlmensional photo-
',f; graphs. Asslmdng they even come out perfectly.
:_ Last night the spider realized apparently that
the front part of the cage was not a permanent
fixture. And that - uh - the - doors could be
opened, becuase on last night's web, the second
: web, there were at the bottom of the cage a few
of the radials which were attached to - or at

least touching the front of the glans. So when

r I opened it up why, it disturbed the web a little
bit, it caused it to rlbrate and shake and im_]1
a little bit. Tonight, it appeared that the way
the web is constructed, the spider sort of
= walked around on the wall, the four-side w.11 ,
of the enclosure and _tx._ng some mors-or-less -
_: uh - single elements diagon-!ly across the eornor.
':_ " And then also some of them - Well, it lonk. like
:: that was probably the first step, sort of dia-
gonals across the coruor. And then, from these
diagonal she managed to start stringing addi-
tionsl stringers fran the - uh - one diagonal
to another. And then event11_1ly it wan about
to get clear across of the diagonal and then
• she started her normal construction. But then
._. in addition to that, some of these radials have
•_ other stringers tied in toward the back of the
cage, and so by tightening up on these stringers,
she actually sort of Im,lled the web back away from
the front part of the cage a little ways. So
_'__ tonight when I opened up the doors - uh - the -

221 14 03 19 SPT Okay, we're coming up on the second 2700

angstrom mark here; and I _m_nna :.,2_kea couple
of con,_ents about the attempt back there at .
13:58:30 to _et two exposures of the se-ne
tar£et. It -_.ovedfrom - uh - the center
of the field of the view to edge of the view
in only about 5 seconds - 5 to 6 seconds.
That is insufficient time to - uh - uh -
drive the handwheel beyond the points where
• the - uh - triggers have been tripped so
if you don't get an extra exposure, you can
come bach, drive it beyond that point, then
go to vernier - uh - disengaged, move it to
the bottom, reengage it, drive up to the
same target and get a UV photograph of the
s_n.e spot. Va - 5 to 6 seconds is inadequate
time to do that. And so - uh - I - I su_sest
that you think a'oout that in the simulator,
and think about that on future pass as to
whether or not it is even worth tryln_ to

get - uh - two UV photographs, @!rrerent

' _avelen_hs, of the ::_e target. Uh - in
attempting to do so, I did not drive beyond
the point where the - uh - trip levers b_d
driven over their cam; so we got an extra
freebee on the ret_/rn sweep on both the UV
sad the visible eez_ra, and I still _:_s not
able to drive bach to the ss.ne target. It
had s_.,ply moved beyond the field of view
by the time I had a chance to zet back there.
So I did t_<e an extra Ifq at 3200 angstroms
of anot1%er target, as near as possible; but
I'm sure it _s some miles beond the first
target. And we'l!, of course, l_ve an extra
visible on that same shot since the - the trip -

on the first set of 8 se - 8-second exposures,
back at 13:52, I believe - uh - they m qy
have been 10-second exposures instead of
8 because the little marker on this cam has
a bright edge and the light glinted off the
leading edge of that through the xrindow

edge rather than the white mark. And that

coronograph looked for transients, and tub, sent
that down to the ground uh, for recording and
hopefully, then, that can be sent on to uh,
Houston for review fairly - fairly soon. And
i_ following that we picked up a number of shopping

© _; item number one, Just in case there had been
_° a bit of a transient in the corona, we could
_ _ get one more glimpse of it without taking too _-

prominence _hich was Just going to the north
_ of active region 84. In fact, I think it _as

extended out into the corona and u_wards to the

uh, a very uh, large uh, a very large prominence

conce_is the uh, run of 131 this morning.
l'm answering the debrief - debriefing
questions. Describe the d4gree of difficulty
relative to ground-based trials connecting
to space orientation Judgment. I found it
to be uh, a little mole difficult, or -maybe
more - much more difficult when you tried
to remember whether uh, the reference was
relative to the external - as long as you
were workin' external, you were i_ pretty
good shape. But if you want to go external,
if you were floating slightly, or you were
kind of asleep during the run, which as I
found it extremely easy to do, and it's the
only experiment that I've noticed it - I
been tryin' to wonder whether it's the pad
 Dump Tape 221-04

f.................................................

' . pushing on your eyes , or what because .....

f-_ _ it's not that make you sleepy, at
i least me: But anyhow , it's difficult
to remember - as long as you're strapped
: down tight to the chair, at any of the
attitudes, so your back's pressing on
and your legs and your butt - you don't
have auy trouble because you Just kind
of remember, _d you put it there. So
! it's a muscle %hing. But if you try to
' visualize in your mind which way it is,
"_ I found that uh, I could visualize it
' almost any different direction. .,
• !
:-:221 19 20 38 CDR For example, even standing in the chair
'_ J _ when I would float slightly out, I
_) l; could visualize the vertical quite
_ YS easily, back behind me, which would
i'? be the horizontal to the workshop. -_
2] Now I knew that wasn't true because :7.
_- 2! I knew I was strapped to the vertical
C-'_ - or 2 or 3 degrees to tip to the left. ,
>-_ _'_ I always knew where I was because I've -:
run the test before. If I didn't P_ow
CJ_ 2_ where I was and somehow someone had to :
.4 rotate me slowly or - or hadn't told me
/_ >_;; exactly where I _s, I would have never
_ been able to guess which way the vertical
__ _ was. Now during these runs even when I "
;- _; could - knew where the vertical _s,
_._ several times I would forget, as I floated
_: up I'd say, "I know tLat I'_ not going to
_ point to vertical. I know I'm pointing
_ further down in pitch generally than the
_ vertical, but that's "_here I feel it is."
;_ Now, I know it isn't, because my wrist and
:_ muscle action tell me the other way. But
3_ I feel it down towards the - a little bit
:._ more pitch down. Now I did that and I -
__" sometimes I'd correct that Just on intellect
_: as opposed to feeling. So mixed in with
"_ this test is where you think it is and
"_ then where your muscles tell you it's got
'" to be.

page 5 of 6 ......... I- x__:

;;' I answered I. Mainly the conflict was

• * the fact that I could imagine the vertical
i anywhere but my muscles knew where it was.
Now one other,thing that I think is important,
": if you should send up and tell us whether you
": want us to strap down to this chair very
" tight. Particularly in the litter mode,
_ecause in t_ litter mode if you don't
_ _ strap down tightly, your upper body kind
:' of floats up and then when you move around -
; with your hands around, your upper body :_
moves about and it sort of gives you a little
_ bit of a vertigo feeling which tends to make

_, _ i you loose
push your down
yourself vertical reference.
till you're If you'll
horozontal on
',_' that litter chair, then it seems to all make
c_ i sense. But while you're floating around and
' moving around, particularly when your head is -
-_ .... movements is caused by your hands moving the
_ _ ball and - and, uh, pointer, then you tend
Z
r: _2_ to - to be more dispersed. Now ve could do
_; it either way; I tend to let myself float up. •

')
I _ 1221 19 22 56 CDR Did you at any time experience a positive
L_ sense of the upright? Answer: yes, but it
:V wasn't always right. Usually I had a feeling -
" which way was up, but frequently I knew that
":: the way I felt was up was not true. _dere
_b _ _ your Judgments influenced by auditory cues
_- : or other enviromnental factors? I don't
; i think so. I think most of it was strictly
_- muscle sense and Fmoving w_ere the sphere was.
If they put you in the chair blindfolded,
i_. i Just cranked you around two or three times,
you couldn't tell. _ow it's possible maybe
7 in one g you couldn't tell either. I don't
; : knew.

221 19 23 32 CDR Did the line target appear stable and under
your complete contro3? It was stable, fuzzy,
" but I tended to go to sleep, and - uh, uh, I
don't know why. But, uh, I'd close my eyes.

couldn't even hardly open my eyes. I was -

I would be almost half asleep. I bet if

you'd find my eyes were in a sleep config-
uration. Because it was even further out
of focus than it normally is. It didn't
have any apparent movement. The only
movement was[ a tendency to get dark in
there when Y99 closed your eyes. Okay,
6. Any additional comments and obser-
vations? None other than this - this
experiment has always had difficulty
being run. It's because there's so
doggone many ways to do it. Whether
you _nt to strap yourself down or not.
Whether you want to move your head a
little hlt. _ether you want to close
or open your eyes. _hether you want to
: point to where you think the vertical
is or whereyour musclestell you it
i _ is. I think this still is a detriment,
and somehow, uh, these dehriefings sessions
have to be hooked with the data so that my
data, for example, from day to day is - can
be correlated. Or my data with Owen.
He might say, "I'm always going point
where my intellect tells me it is."
Jack over there may he saying, "l'm
Just going to point where I think it
is, even though I know it isn't ever
there." And, uh, thorpe are going to make
a big difference. A _Ig ... of the stress
that you see. You say, "Y_u know I'm not
pointing in the right direction, but I
feel that it ought to he pointed in this
direction.

this is for azybody that's concern with
the food - uh for example, Rita Rapp and,

and anybody else. See what I've got here.
We've been spending up there about 5 man
hours putting this stowage away and getting
r_ out our food for days 56, 57, and 58. Now
we did that, and we strapped them in a -
a, uh, plonumbag up on top of the lockers,
but later on we're gonna move'em so that
we can get them out of the way. But right
now that's the only good place. We put
our overage food in - Just a second, I'll
tell you the number. We put our overage
food in 555 and that's - the locker that
our two foot bundles came out of and that's
where we gonna keep - all of it. Now we
got two ways we can go. We'll tell you what
the overage is - and it won't - we keep
adding overage eve_j, _h, day or so because,
for example, I don't eat the vegetables,
uh, Jack doesn't eat the tuna or the
bread, and Owen isn't eating some other
things. And ya'll know about those already.
But they do begin to build up overage. We'll
keep you informed on maybe a monthly basis
or something like that and certainly give
you good updates before we go. Now I'm
gonna tell you what's in - uh - that - that
