260 O0 05 33 CDR So anyway - another interruption. We had

to start the - uh - at 125 to count down.
So anyhow, we - uh - got through those
items finally by taking single frames,
normal, centrifugal, short. ANd finally it
hung on 6 in patrol short. So I just finish
that• We did not do g_t in the two - uh -
filter 3 or the fil- filter 4, 8 minutes,
motion cause we spent all the time trying
to get 56 working in _t's long, normal and
all because I felt you probably wanted those
more. Once we finished those, then - uh -
we in_nediately went to Sun center looked
at 52, gave you the down-link and then - uh -
uh we're not presently running the - uh -
' atmosphericextinction. So - uh - that's
if for the evening. And I'm gonna power
down unattended for s little while.

260 09 33 B6 SPT Okay, here we are on channel B with

the PRD readings for the day. Jack
has 414, hl4 for Jackson.

260 09 34 31 SPT PRO for the SFT is 214, 214; for the SPT.

260 ll 02 ll SPT Okay, this is the SFT on channel A,

debriefing the first ATM pass of the
day which finished right here at ll:00.
Uh - did the daily undate which is of
interest to the ATM Pis and planners,
I guess, except for getting a good
roll, and - uh - started the - uh -
- uh - pass with a - tub - JOP 7 at sunrise,
on 19hl magnesium i0. I - uh - believe
our - uh - JOP did net extend into the
. .sunrise interval, so it should have
been satisfactory. Uh - this was a J0P 1
as planned; after that was complete_
and the info on the VTR, went to - uh -
active region 27 - uh - which - uh -
f- looks the - uh - brightest in our
H-alpha today, as well as a pretty good
- uh - perhaps the brightest signature
also in XUVo Uh - if there were to be
a flare today, my guess is that - uh -
active region 27 would be the most likely.

260 ii 03 02 SPT And - uh - uh - did do 82B - uh - time

exposure, 2 plus 40, as well as a 55
GRATING AUTO SCAN and a mini- RASTER.
Uh - I started to give - uh - S056 a long
exposure there, and uh - then terminated
after about 5 minutes - uh - sorry
it wasn't any longer, Jim, because
I wanted to go over and take a look
at a bright spot there.

260 ll 03 28 SPT There are a number of bright spots now

- uh - that - u_h - are visible and
visible as I recall up to - uh -
somewhere north of Sun center, and - uh -
uh - found a bright spot, had pretty
good contrast with background, in
oxygen 67 at any rage, and - uh - uh
Dump TApe 260-02
Page 2 of 2

did MIRROR LINE SCAN and mini-RASTER,

mini-AUT0 RASTER on the - uh - uh -
bright spot. I didn't have time for
a GRATING AUTO SCAN. And - uh - then
after that, in the last couple or 3 minutes,
I went back to do another J0P 7 at sunset,
but, unfortunately, - uh -VT dumping
was beginning to - uh - encroach on
our - uh - uh - on our star availability
time, at sunsetapparently,and I don't
believe any of the lines had - uh -
reached, sufficient - uh - uh - absorption
before the - tub - computer cut the
- uh - signals off at effective sunset,
So there was an attempt at another J0P 7,
but it probably was unsuccessful at sunset.
That completes the - uh - _TM pass.

260 Ii Oh 3h SPT Oh, incidentally, on the - uh -

get the word to George Withbroe, Miller,
and/or Gavin Timothy [?] on the - uh -
about to the ATM pass - uh - he did say
on/the science debriefing tasks, he
said it was a complete increase on the
- uh - atomic oxygen cross-section which
is - uh - what I'd sort of guessed the
- uh - answer was, although I just
happened to know - uh - what the - uh -
atomic oxygen cross section was at that
wavelength, apparently it just - uh -
substantially larger. I don't
recall having had many requests for -
uh - uh - JOP 7 data at that wavelength,
perhaps you're getting good atomic
oxygen cross sections at another wavelength
at this time that I'm not aware of,
but - uh - it would seem that a few
of magnesium i0 wouldn't, hurt at this
point, and - uh - seeing the scale
it comes from, well, that looks -
when I get back there, I guess. I'm
sorry, George andor George.

260 ii 05 25 SPT So - uh - that completes the debriefing

at this point for the ATM PIs and
planners from the SPT.

260 ii 3h 26 CDR Message - this is the CDR wlth a

message to Jerry Carr, Bill Pogue, and the
food people. Jerry and Bill, don't
get - uh - don't get excited, but - uh -
I Just removed seven of your lemonades from
locker 562. I kept an accurate record
of where they went and - uh - because
we have lemonades on the ground that you
can bring up, felt, that you wouldn't
feel this was too - uh - bad a
situation. We've eaten all'the overage
lemonades in the spacecraft. We've
eaten all the overage strawberries,
and although I wanted - I like the
strawberries better, I knew there was
not any available for resupply on
the ground, whereas there is a number
of lemonades. So we have those out_
now and we'll porbably be drinking em.
If we need any. more, we'll keep
accuratetrack of those also.

260 ll 35 33 CDE Uh - CDR out.

260 ii 40 35 SPT Okay, Just a quick co_uent for the ATM PIs
8rid planners - uh - Just getting started
on this next orbit but the beginning
of the orbit I did do a - uh - a
J0P 7 at sunrise on the same bright
point that I completed - uh - the
study on during the last orhit.
The last orbit I ended on a - uh -
short study of a bright spot in
the network and - uh - uh - I owed
this to JOP 7 sunset; attempt at the
ssxae spot. So I left the pointing
right there and the sunrise - uh - this
morning - uh - the bright spot had
- uh - moved to the right by - uh -
i0 or 15 arc seconds, which usually
isn't much for just solar rotation, but
it could be I didn't have it quite
picked up either at the end of the _
last orbit. So - uh - you can see a
little bit of extra addition data on
 L

_ Dump Tape 260-03

Page 2 of 3

i
the same bright spot by looking at
the beginning of this orbit, see what
it looks like 30 minutes later, and I'm •
sure you'll see sunset and the solar
rotation. And - uh - we're now with the
J0P 2 and I'll complete _ny other see
any ... in the corona at that time,
but did take - uh - about h3 seconds
or little over in FAST SCAN for S052
to cycle through their - uh - exposure
range so if there is anything - uh -
started out of the corona, we'll have
- uh - uh - an initial starting point - uh -
for the - uh - appearance of the corona. Uh -
be interesting to find out if that
was some sort of an snomaly in .our
• - uh - onboardmonito?'I don't think
so, I think it was a legitimato radio
burst and I'll check with you at the next
- uh - radio contact about it.

260 12 34 16 SPT Uh - after - uh - taking a look there,

I then went on over to - uh - active
region 27 which increasingly showed
signs of brightening in both H-alpha
and the XUV MON. As a matter of fact,
once again I noticed it first on the
XUV MON, and then in the H-alpha it did
look a little bit brighter. There was
some indications of - uh - of a small
center beginning, but if so, there
wasn't anything resulting in subflsre
with very little if any interferias
response. So the XUV picked up - might
have disappeared after 5 or i0 minutes.
So I did the - a partial on active region 27,
anyway because I was already looking at
it at the end of the orbit. I then moved
the grating up to 19hl to - uh - try
to get JOP 7 data at - uh - sunset.
I thought that J0P - or 19hl was
possibly about the only position we
could - uh - use since effective sunset
is coming earlier now and most of the
other ifnes are not - uh - particularly
distinguished.
j

Page 3 of 3

260 12 35 15 SPT So - uh - I tried 19hl, I'm not sure

I got that quite in adequate time - uh -
but there's a possibility of getting
some magnesium i0 extinction data on
the end of the orbit. Now I might also
comment on the - uh - uh - very bright
streamer that we had showing up at 250
on the coronograph. Uh - that's probably
the longest and brightest streamer that
I ever saw and observed up here. I
don't know what active region is
responsible for it, perhaps it's still on
the back side of the Sun, but if so
it is certainly - uh - generating a
coronal response - uh - because - uh -
it's a - very bright,, all She way to the
edge of our display. And - uh - I r uh -
expect the - uh - down-link VTR will
show that to you also and if you have any
- uh - plans for - uh - uh - for - uh -
i lookingat it duringthis passage or if
you could identify whether it's on a
front side or back side active region -
uh - you might pass that information along.

260 12 36 15 SPT So - uh - that's the end of this

debriefing for the A_4 PIs and planners
from the - uh - SPT.

260 12 32 38 SPT This is the SPT on channel A with information

for the - uh - ATM PIs and planners, de-
briefing the last ATM pass, which finished
here at 12:30 Zulu. Completed everything
on the schedule, the Sun center J0P plus
the chromospheric velocity J0P 2 Foxtrot
for - uh - 55. After 7 or 8 minutes in
MIRROR LINE SCAN for the chromospheric
velocity - uh - study - uh - I had pre-
. viously - uh - notied that - uh - there was
a rather strong 6-centimeter radio burst
about 12:12 Zulu. I - uh - checked - uh -
XUV MON and could see uo significant
si_uature with the possible exception
of something over on the limb, and so
after 7 or 8 minutes of MIRROR LINE SCAN
for 55, I went back to 30n center to take
a look at the corona.

260 12 33 34 SPT I couldn't see anything hnusual in the

corona at that time _ but did take - uh -
about h3 seconds or !i.+.tleover in FAST
SCAN for S052 to cycle through their - uh -
exposure range so if there is anything - uh -
started out in the corona, we'll have - uh- ..
uh - an - uh initial starting point - uh -
for the - uh - %ppearance of the corona.
Uh - be interesting to find out if that was
some sort of an anomaly in our - uh - onboard
monitor. I don't think so, I think it was
a legitimate radio brust and I'll check with
you at the next - uh - radio contact about
it.

260 12 34 16 SPT Uh - after - uh - taking a look there, I then

went on over to - uh - active region 27
which increasingly showed signs of brightening
in both H-alpha and the XUV MON. As a matter
of fact, once again I noticed it first on the
-XUV MON, and then in the H-alpha it did
look a little bit brighter. There was some
indication of - tub - of a small center
beginning, but if so, there wasn't anything
resulting in subflare with very little if
any X-ray response or signature. And it might
have disappeared after 5 or I0 minutes.

So I did the - a partial ... on active

region 27, anyway because I was already
looking at it at the end of the orbit. I
then moved the grating up to 1941 to
uh - try to get J0P 7 data at - uh - Sunset.
I thought that JOP - or 1941 was probably about
the only position we could - uh - use since
effective sunset is coming earlier now and
most of the other lines are not - uh -
particularly distinguished.

260 12 35 15 SPT So - uh - I tried 1941. I'm not sure I.

got that quite in adequate time - uh - hut
there's a possibility of getting some
magnesium i0 extinetion data on the end of
the orbit. Now I might also comment on the
uh - uh - very bright- streamer that we had
showing up at 250 on the coronograph. Uh -
that's probably the longest and brightest

260 12 51 O0 PLT Okay, space fans, this is Jack and AI on

channel A. The subject is MI31-1. AI
just completed his - uh - spin test when -
which he went counter-clockwise at 30rpm.
No symptoms and - uh - also the OGI. Now
the - uh - nitrogen pressure is - uh -
ll50, and he'll - uh - debrief the OGr run
now.

260 12 51 27 CDR This is CDR with com_nents on 131-1. And

you have a sense of rotating around other-
wise moving. You certainly did sometime.
b_ - when we were rotating sometimes if
I got it, I noticed before I started.
I checked and found I had a - uh - right
bias in other _ords as l.was sitting still
and looked out and saw I was sitting still,
_f l'd would look in I would sense a right
bias. So - .uh - that's one little note.
Did the line target ever move in a directiQn
other than expected?

260 12 51 58 CDR No, last time it did as I reported, but

this time it was perfectly normal. Visual
comment. Nothing; it looked okay. _n -
uh - the - uh - spin test with the counter
clockwise sandwiches; the first time l've
tried that all. ! didn't get sick or have
any motion awareness, I mean - _h - stomach
awareness or anything, but I felt it was
much more trouble to spin that way. I
felt it was more of a stress on me. The
I/h -

260 12 53 04 PLT Okay, this is Jack again. Uh - same

subject, _31-i on AI. I - uh - made one
incorrect input, and I made one which -
uh - l'm not sure ! made. Let's take -
uh - on - uh - on revolution, the first
set was counter clockwise. He gave a
left, I entered, and he have a right and
I'm not sure I entered that one or not.
And - uh - he gave the right answer, anyway.

260 12 53 32 PLT Okay, and then around in revolutions - uh -

18 on the - uh - third set. I gave him a
Dump Tape 260-05
Page 2 of 9

counter clockwise, he gave ma a left,

correct, which I entered, and then he gave
me a right, which I incorrectly entered
as a left. We got all of them right in 18.
He did not miss any. And - uh - that takes
care of it. This information to - uh -
Dr. - uh - Jerry Honnock, [?] Biomed. _d
of message. Thank you.

260 13 02 09 CDR This is the CDR with a message to Jerry

CarT, Bill Poge, and the food people.

260 14 04 50 SPT Okay, this is the SPT, for the ATM PIs
an/ planners debrief - debriefing the last
uh - pass which ended about - uh - 14:06
Zulu. Uh - we - uh - ran through the
ATM scheduleas on the _ad. Stand by.

260 14 05 44 SPT Okay, back on the - uh - last'discussion

from the SPT. Uh - we ran through the
ATM schedule as is on the pad. I was
supposedto Sun center ... and there the
spicules. I wanted to'talk a little bit
more about the spicules. I hope I haven't
- uh - misled anyone particularly the
NRL people on that. In this case, near ."
the north pole, the appearance of a limb
looks rather like a - uh - peach of the
fuzzy variety as observed through a rather
- uh - either misty or poor forquality
magnifying glass. The fuzz is obvious
standing above the skin of the peach.
But that to pic k out any single - uh -
line - uh - or any ind - individual hair
of the peach fuzz would have been impossible.
Uh - there was two many spicule Spuds, and
they were essentially all of about the same
altitude.

260 l_ 06 38 SPT .So it just looked like a fuzz on - uh - top

of the peach skin. Now occassionally, as
I mentioned before, we can see individual
speeule extending, it's out perhaps twice
the normal distance. Uh - but - uh - I
scan back and forth around near the north
pole and found - uh - none in that region.
So I essentially pointed - uh - perpendicular
 Dump Tape 260-05
Page 3 of 9

to the limb, and - uh - rna the JOP IE

in the manner.

260 14 07 06 SPT Uh - I believe I did have a 6 - centi-

meter radio noise burst during the
middle of this pass, about the time I
called it down to the ground. And so
in about the last - uh - 6 minutes of
the orbit, I went back to Sun center -
uh - did about i minute of fast scan,
then took a look at the corona and
compared it with a picture that I had
taken in the beginning of the orbit.

260 14 07 26 SPT Uh - there were no - uh - obvious

change in the coronal structure - uh -
from - uh - the 45 m/nutes - uh -
ensuing between the beginning and the
end of the orbit. Uh - then left the
uh - gradient'426 Sun center, and - uh -
I tried to get you some extinction data
on - uh - silca 3 there, - uh - at
sunset_ I don'tknow whetherthe - uh -
VT dump will - uh - interfere and come
too early before extinction has arrived.
But - uh - it's on the coronal tape at
any rate. And that completes the - uh -
degriefing from the SPT for the ATM Pls
and planners.

260 lh 33 41 PLT Hello, down there, space fans. This is

Jack on channel A. The subject this
morning is EREP, number 35 pass. We
just went to check on the S192 and -
uh - C-6 is reading 57 percent. That's
all we're going to say for now, but
we'll be back in a little while.

260 14 36 30 CDR Okay, this is the CDR with information

on the - uh - urine measurement this
morning. Let me give you some good dope
I think. Okay, here's what it weighed
with everything on it including a mere -
just a second. I got to go find out
the length, but I weighed it.

260 lh 37 15 SPT This goes to Dr. Bill Thronton and anyone

4 interestedin the B_9_ I put on there
Dump Tape 260-05
Page 4 of 9

uh - the initial weighing just exactly

what you said including one of the small -
uh - not the small but the - uh - lead-
ers for the - u_ - sample bag, and
56 inches of gray tape, and in every-
thing else. The only thing added for
the 3 other measurements were - uh -
urine bags, and I have the serial numbers.
The only thing added for - uh - all of
the - uh - masses. Here we go. The
initial starting rig, including the
tape and - uh - the single - uh -
adapter for the - uh - sample bag.
29266, no no, I didn't say it right.
292626, 292637, 292642, 292599, 292632.
Now by the way, I measured these things
eqeh 5 times. I didn't measure them _,
and pick the best of 6 to make 5 or any-
thing like that.

260 14 38 27 CDH Okay, 320 - urine bag 320, and I'Ii tell
you what they weigh in a few minutes:
303124 303131, 303126_303153, 303182.
Okay, bag 280: 303655, 303637, 303645,
303622, 303666. Okay, let's go for
bag 285: 306628, 306708, 306608, 306672,
306676. That's bag 285. Now the masses
added on. To the ... arrangement:
299862, 299888, 299796, 299880, 299892_
Let me go get you the Weights of the
bags; hold it.

260 14 40 06 CDR Okay, here comes the - uh - ma the

weight - the -oh - volume as measured
in the - uh - oh - other device. On
bag number 320, which belonged to
0wen - uh - no, that belonged to me.
The weight was 930 - uh - not the weight,
the volume, 930. For Owen's, which was
bag 280, the volume was 1050. And
for Jack - -

SPT 1050

CDR Yeah 1050. For Jack, which was 285, we

have 1680. So the three bags in order
are 930, 1050, 1680. Those are the

goes to Bill Thgrnton. CDR out.

260 14 41 15 CDR By the way, another note for Bill

Thronton. The first time you do that
job, I would _low something like an
hour and a half. Any other time you do
it, I think you can do it in an hour
and 15 minutes. But you cannot do it
in an hour. At least I couldn't.

passed over Baja probablyover Arizona
right now and - uh - don't know where
we'll be in a minute from now. Gonna
put us over the sou%hwest U.S. What I'm gonna
do is take a i/8-seeond exposure. And let's
switch it ot one-half and take another one.
Dump Tape 260-06
Psge ll of 12

Do it all manually. Now the frame counter

on the back is sitting at 2. Two frames
remaining. We have 5- until the the first
photo. Okay, now I'm gonna point it about
20 degrees - uh - toward the nadir. Now
I do see the horizon over to my left and
so the nadir would be to the right side
of the window. And I'll be angling for
about 20 degrees and naturally can't
see - uh - through the - uh - viewfinder
because there isn't one.

260 16 40 39 SPT So, I'm pointing the camera by looking over

the ton. Okay, I'm making sure that
the - uh - lens does have a clear view,
which it does. Okay, we got about
l0 seconds to go here. TSe camera has been
checked to he cocked.

260 16 40 57 SPT Okay, we're o_ channel A RECORD. Stand

by for the first makr. All righty ....
stand by .... press the trigger. Interesting.
Try it on single on motor drive function.
Figure from the back. Okay, apparently it
will not drive any further.

SPT Unable to drive the camera any further.

Well, can't drive the camera. So these
last two photos are all down the drain.
Unable to drive it and - uh - I cannot
trigger it from the top or from the
bottom. When I - uh - change the motor
dirve function to and try to trigger
ti from the bottom, the motor just went
chug and the counter moved down, oh,
a fraction of one frame like a quarter
of a frame or something like that, and so -
uh - I'm also unable to widen the cassette
any further. And - uh - it could very
well be the end, for all I can tell.
My - uh - frame counter on the top of the
camera reads 42 and thar tehecks putting
closely I had set on the bottom. I had
the bottom initially set at 43 and it
counted down to 2 or really right between
i and 2 now. So essentially, the top
and bottom frame counters agree and it's
not clear why I can't drive the last frame
Dump Tape 260-06

or tow here manually or with the -

uh- motor drive. So it looks like my
only alternative now is to rewind the

260 17 10 21 CDR CDR debriefing the ARM run that started

. .
16:17. Uh- i got some information
earlier that there was a radio burst,
went up and took a left. And sure
enough, as I reportedon channelA, it
looked like there was - Uh - organi -
reorganization of the corona, "down around the
5 o'clock position with the rolling zero.
_ow I've been oepration with a roll of
about a minus 3,000 and so that would
make it near 5:30. What had occured
from the time 13:20 till the time 16:20
was that another long - uh - ray - had
- uh - had - uh - manifested itself - uh -
in - uh - immediately itself - uh - in -
uh - immediately above the ray that was
at that point.

260 17 ii 05 CDR Also some of the lower rays - uh -

the very - uh - sharp corona at 3:00
o'clock at zero roll. - uh - seems to
have been - uh -somewhat misplaced or -
uh - eliminated. So my feeling is
that something's going on between
these two rays is tenous to observe.

260 17 ii 26 CDR But in any effect - way, what I did do

was - uh - uh - tth - take a - uh - go
_o JOP a do a - uh - extended standard.
When I was completed 16 minutes, I by
the way I also took a long exposure on

I should proceed to the pad, which I
did.

8 minutes prior to sunset, I then went "

260 17 14 20CDR This is information for the 131 PI. This

is the CDR. Uh - after my spin I felt -
uh - not particuarly good. It wasn't a
stomach awareness, l'don'_ think, if was
Just sort of - uh - a slight blahsia [sic]
for about 30 minutes. During this period,
I drank some Yemonaid which didn't set
too well on my stomach. I drank some
water. After 30 minutes, this entire
feeling_went away and I felt good the rest -
uh - so far.

260 17 14 58 CDR So - uh - I think maybe the whole problem

was this counterclockwise spin that I
don't remember ever doing either on ground,
preflight, or up here during flight.

Thornton - Dr. Bill Thornton. Hello,
Bill, just did your _4D photos as requested
on the SPT photopad. I don't hink anybody
had ever sent it up hut the - uh -
location specified that.

..260 17 40 47 SPT First off, from F-3 - uh -there is no

way to get the camera orientated insuch
a way that it'll look at one g as if the -
uh - subject - uh - were anything but on
his side.

260 17 41 00 SPT The only way was that - first of all it

was pointed up to one side of the chair by
 4 2''

Page 3 of 8

20 degrees or so and no way to orient

the camera. And then the third thing
is the - uh - uh - T025 cylinder that
holds the parasol - or whatever that
numher of experiment is - that holds
the parasol housing - ub - sits right
in front of the Bb_ - B_._D. So
there wouldn't be any way to see it.

260 17 _i 21 SPT So, what I did was to move the camera

about 3 or 4 feet forward to another
location to get it pointed properly.
And - uh - it took about 30 minutes
to collect all the stuff required
to do that because they specified - uh -
new DACS and new everything else to -
.. uh - find all that stuff.

260 17 41 35 SPT So, I've taken what film was left over
and I'm just now doing the S_I) photos
foryou,Bill.

260 17 41 hO SPT Uh - end of message from the SPT to Bill

Thronton.

260 18 16 54 SPT Okay, message for the EREP officer. We're

sitting here looking at Salt Lake City.
Uh - we can see the - uh - wind patterns
in the water. Uh - we can see the - uh -
twin roads cutting across the salt flats
very clearly.

260 18 l? 07 SPT Uh - we can - uh - see the individual little

- uh - sections where they're apparently
-u h - evaporating their water fro - uh -
salt - uh - collection. (music) We
can see little streaks - uh - out - uh -
through the water - uh - caused by, it
looks to me like, some sort of a -
uh - looks like - uh - the trail a
shrimp boat leaves - uh - where it leaves
a litte trail in the mud - through the
northern part of the lake which is reddish.
(Music)

260 18 17 39 SPT Although you can see pretty good details

down ther but that gives you some idea.
It looks like - uh - resolution of
20 or 30 feet is pretty easily visible
- uh - when they're straight lines
like - uh - highways for example. But
you can easily see the dividing lane
or the - uh - center strip between the -
uh - uh - double lanes on the freeway
crossing the slat flats. That was very
easily discernible and the resolution is
probaly, oh, two or three times better
than that.

260 18 18 06 SPT Uh - that's the end of the comment from

the SPT looking at - uh - Salt Lake City
on the pass today. F_r - they go to
the EREP officer.

260 18 47 02 PLT Hello, space fans, this is Jack on channel

A. The wubJect today is S183. We're about "
to begin pass 5221. We've checked out the
camera at - tth - 24 frames a second. We've
• got her set on time and 1/60 and - uh -
we're going to go sequence start at - uh -
on my - uh - mark. We're showing plate 7-
We got - uh - our exposures set at 0, 300, and
0. Stand by.

2_6018 47 30 PLT MARK. We Just went to start. Okay, the

film plates showing, as I mentioned, is
number 07. OUr first field is - uh -
field CHI - Charlie, HOtel, India. The -
uh - Nuz on the pad is a plus 3.h. The
NuZ of the spacecraft is olus 2.6. According
to our little formula, 3.4 minus 2.6 is
a plus 0.8. Adding that algebraically to our
- uh - totationa,1 - uh - settings I get
3748 for the first one and 184.5 for the
second one. Okay, now we're - uh - going
rickyticky ticky onthe - ula - walking the
slide in on the - uh - S183_ Had ther
been a - uh - slide in there, it would have
worked, but at least the Stepper motor's
working."

it go click. And - uh - just what the
DAC is doing I can't ell. (Music)

2460 18 h9 16 PLT Somebody took me off of reocrd. Okay.

So - uh - we'll just sort of stand by and
listen and watch what happens. And, a& I
said, I can't ell what the DAC is doing,
at the moment. I don't have any lights
on it. I didn't hear anything go click_
although I wasn't listening. And in the
meantime, we're standinb y for - uh - aur
300 second exposure to be completed. And
that should occur in about - uh - 51 30
to 52 minute wise.

260 18 .50 02 FLT So we'll go off the air fer a little while.•

260 18 tl 43 PLT Okay, here we are back again on S183. Let's

see if we can.- uh- nitce when the shutter
closes and this exposure is completed.
I put my hand on the DAC here. See if I
ena feel it doing anything.

PLT Guess that was a minute off come to think

of it. Should be 52:30 to 53 - uh - some
tme. This exposure gets completed. This is
CO Charlie HOtel India. One 300-second
exposure. The plate showing is number 7
in the window, a/thougn - uh - there's
no film in there. Stepper moto's still
giving us signals. I hope we can get this
machine working right.

260 18 53 05 PLT And - uh - according to the pad and also

on the - uuh - checklsit I did operate
the DAC at 24 frames per seconds for
2 seconds - before the first exposure.

260 18 53 29 PLT Should be about time for the time out.

INsturmentation recorder's on - ehlick
there it goes. Stepping back. There's
the shutter closing off. Stepping back.

260 18 53 51 PLT MARK. The light it out. Plate number 8s

In fact, the number 2 - the fourth digit -
third digit from the left has completel -
uh - luminescent stuff's completely
gone and part of the 3 is gone also. Okay
one - ... are 84.5. Eveyrtime you come
to a two, you don't know exactly where
you're at. But if you look closely
you can see the - uh - cutout made for
the two. And 29.2 ih the'ITLT. We're
goinf right at the moment.

260 18 55 46 PLT Okay, 184.5 i_ doubledchecked. And 29.2 is

also doublechecked. This is the field is
Golf Mike Charlie - GMC, just like the
trucks_ And - uh - we setthat.
How we set exposure speetorgraph on
for pad. Okay, we got zero_ a zero,
and a 1260. Okay. 001260, which is -
uh - precisely ... Okay 21 and 56 is
about 17. And - tub - we can runt ill 18.
So we better get going here. Sequence
start, whatever avaialbe time on pad.
Okay, fix ... for pad. Sequence start.
Here we go.

260 18 56 43 PLT MARK. Sequence started. And that was

at 56:43. Now I ought to hear the
stepper motor go.

we're going off the air for quite a while
until this time's up. And I should be
done - uh - prior to sunr - sunrise.

and check with you later.

TIME SKIP

260 19 14 52 CDR Okay, this is the CDE reporting on the -

uh - uh - tape recorder look on tape
recorder 28. We think we've fixed it,
by the way. Let me tell you what
I did. I followed the procedure
exactly. Uh - when I got down to step 4,
I step - uh I inspected it for damaged
tape. No tape_ The amountof tape on
the reel was, the top one was full and
the F-1 switch was activated, the bottom
one hadthe remainderon it, which you
can't tell how much it is because the switch
was not actuated. Uh - eonsluting the
book s the first - next thing I did was rotate
the wheels both ways. Now when I rotated
the wheels so that the black was being take
up by the uop - top wheels , it got a
tremendous aroumt of slack in it. The -
uh - I didn't say that right. _atever -
whenever I was rotating it -

260 19 16 02 CDR @hever I was rotating it counterclockwise

would be the way to say, so the bottom
reel was taking up slack, the top reel
was giving it out. Then we'd get a hug
lop up around the idler, just prior to the
takeup reel. Okay - uh - something Just
, prior wasn't holding things back. sO I
looked down in there. There is a - uh -
black write running to the record playback
head. That blackwire was rubbing on the -
uh - tape. I then inspected it further
and determined that the tape itself was
no longer going over the caption now.
Dump Tape 260-07
Page 8 of 8

Or the two rollers that are by - the

record playback head. In other words, it
had come off completely, the area - the
four rollers that - the two that have
the pitch roler and thw two that position
it for the taoe light, the playback head.

260 19 17 45 CDR And so it - it was running this way.

It was running from the idler of the
top reel directly past the front of
the head, then back uo to the iderl
for the bottom wheeel. I took it off
and insoected it - Now it's possibl,e
I might add right now, that it wasn't
that bad off until I started moving
it back and forth. It's conceivable
that some of it was - uh - that it was
not that way to begin w_th. But my
suspicion is that it was becuase the
first time I moved it I got f
much slack in that takeuo reel.

260 19 17 56 CDR Okay_ the rest of the thing Went - went

pretty straightforward. The head was
very clean as were all the captions and
rollers. We cleanedthem off, put it
all hack together, adjusted the pitch
to normal -

260 19 32 26 PLT Clearly i went to'the second field, and

- uh - that was Golf Mike Chariie and
the misused the exposure. And - uh -
naturally it took a while for the - uh -
stepper motor t6 start operating - about
50 seconds. _md so - uh - that kind of
ate into the sunset time. So - uh -

CC ... Houston. For your information, the

data recorder dump is complete. We're
• about 1 minute from LOS at Honeysuckle.
Hawaii is coming up at 19:38. Thank
you,Dkc,. And - uh - I want to second -
uh - what - uh - A1 said about your good
efforts on - uh - getting the Skylab
in good shape to begin with and- uh -
.. also the effortsof - uh - many of the
gufys that worked with_'o_.

CC ... Thank you very much.

260 19 26 14 PLT Okay, and - uh - so them - uh - Sorry for

the interrupthere. SQ it turns out
that - uh = the exposure wasn't quite
complete by sunset time. So at - u/d -
19:18 and exactly 15 seconds, I terminated
the - uh - exposureby going to STANDBY.
Now I went to - uh - intiated, the
exposure with 21 minutes and 15 seconds
remaining before sunris,e. However, it
took about 50 seconds for the - uh -
stepper motor to start working. So that -
uh - this apparently is not included in
that - uh - 21-minute exposure period.
And - uh - my comment was that - uh - I
hope that you're allowing for - uh -
time - uh - for the stepper motor to operate.
And all the other little things to work
- uh - uh - in otder to get our pass
completed from - uh - the sunset to the
"sunrit - sunrise time. Uh - Let me figure
it out here. We have a 5-minute exposure
and 21-minute one; that is 26 minutes.

°
Dump Tape 260-08
Page 2 of 6

You gave us - uh - sunrise and sunset

as 18:47 till 19:18. That's - uh -
13:18 - that's - uh - 31 minutes and
we have 26 minutes of exposures. So -
uh - if we start right on tim and end
it right on tie, we'd have about - u h -
50 seconds times 2, or say about a minute
and a ahalf of - uh - waiting for the
stepper motor to work, which runs our
26 minutes up to 27-1/2. And that
leaves us about 3-1/2 mnutes to - uh -
change rotation and tilt and that kind bf
thing, which - uh - should be enough.
But - uh - for some reason didn't seem
to be. Uh- So apparently you've been'
allowing time for thei steeper motor to
operate and - uh - if I egroneous -
erroneously thought you were not, I -
uh - stand corrected. And - uh - we did
terminate this exposure a little bit
early, howevere - I believe. But -
uh = i t probably wasn't too much too early.

260 19 28 31 PLT After - uh - after closing the shutters

by going to STANDBY the plate registered
number 8 and - uh - even though there
was no carrousel in there , I decided to
step it around to - uh - 01. So I went
ro reset with a plate advance and stepped
neatly around to 01 and I went to OFF.
And POWER, OFF adn turned all the
exposure - uh - uh - dial zero.
So - uh - we followed the checklist.
That's where we are. Everything - uh -
mechanical wise seems to be working
pretty good. And - uh - I've run off
another couple of seconds of 2h frames
per second on the DAC. Adn we're gonna
get the mirro/back in now and - uh -
stow this machine.

260 19 29 i0 PLT And - uh - so that's the end of nkv

comments on S183. And thank you for_
listening and - uh - see you later.

260 20 18 55 PLT Okay, space fans. This is Jack, on

channel A, debriefing the last ATM
run which began at 19:20. We got
the j0P 6 and - uh - then we did
the shopping list item number 16
and - uh - then we did the shopping list
item number 16 above active region 28 -
displaced radially from it, of course.
The roll turned out to be - uh -
minus 1727 and - uh - get a _ittle shorter
on time than we had - uh - expected
we might. And - uh - had to cut
down the exposures a little bit. The
- - uh = 82B exposurewas waived short at
31 minutes by 37 and all of 56's exposures
were l0 minutes instead of 12_ But
I think that will give the data that
you want and I cut them all off - uh -
" just before effectivesunset. So -
uh - therewon'tbe a_y - uh - 400
kilometer data in that. I took my -
uh - daily look at the - uh - corona - or
my daily sketch Of the corona and - uh - .'
noted that the - uh - features that are
there are pretty much in he same
location as they were yesterday, although
they have changed somewhat in appearance.
The - uh - streamer extending avove - uh -
active region 28 and 26, over in that
area. The - uh - east-southeast limb
is - uh - still there, of course, but
it's strongly and apparently longer
today. Uh - the area on the east-northeast
limb - uh - has developed into a more
fuller - more full structure - brighter
structurethan it was yesterday.

260 02 18 25 SPT The - uh - region on the west-northwest

limb is still there but apparently has
diminished in intesity somewhat.
The - uh - stremaer on the - uh -
west-southwest limb has developed a fork.
_ Dump Tape 260-08
Page 4 of 6

It was there yesterday, but not

apparent in the fork, and it has developed -
uh - two fairly well-defined - uh -
prongs - uh - sticking out from that area
right there. So we'll continue to watch
the corona. I didn't see anything that
appeared to me to be a transient.
Discontinuities - uh - in the streamers
or - uh - uh - in the area surrounding
the streamers. Uh - Just the - uh -
gradual - uh - fading from - uh -
brightness to darkness in - uh - in
the area. But we'll continue to watch
IT FOR UH DEVELOPMENTS IN THAT
respect.

" 260 20 19 22 SPT So that's the end of -" of the debriefin_

for now. We'll see you in abot an
half an hour. Thank you.

260 20 19 44 SPT Oh, one last comment on the - uh - '

shopping list item number - uh -
- . 16. I - uh - ran MIRROR,AUTO RASTER -
uh - at the same location for a couple
of - uh - of - uh - complete AUTO RASTERS.
And - uh - I left the grating where
it was set at -uh - 2063. Not confident
that this is the - gives you the optimum
position. But that's what happened
to me from J0P 6. So - uh - that's
the way ran them for the shopping
list time.

260 20 31 35 SPT Okay, this is the SPT with information

about the CDR - Al's M092/171 run.

something like that. So it is serial 5.

And - uh - at - uh - 8 minutes, I
poumped the cuff up to 30 or 35 millimeters
AND -uh - left it there. I see now I
should have deflated it at 5 minutes.
I didn!t read that until I was beyond
that point. So I actually carried him
at 30 millimeters till time remaining I.
And - uh - in other words, 7 minutes

259 21 08 46 SPT You turn that _ uh _ ree_i_r, yeah_

SPT Do you? Okay. Okay. I've alread__ got

: it_ Jack_ thank you. Okay. Let's talk
for a little bit about spinning objects
in zero-g. Some of you may have seen our
attemps to spin a little _ u__ - dring
bags or dring bottles and things like
this. It's always a little bit of
tumble at the same time. So we have
found a more convenient way to set objects
spinning. And to illustrate that I'm
going to borrow part of the aparatus from
the student exlperimenters. Uh - this
is the device that really belongs to
Vincent Converse from up in Rockford,
Illinois. And we've used it before as
a means of measuring mass. You put the
mass on the end and then vibration of
this spirng will measure the mass for
you. I'd like to borrow it for another
purpose - uh - uh - right now and show
how we can use this large bolt and nut
for the purposeof - uh - alaunching
platform.

259 21 l0 02 SPT Now these are large masses - not too

large - but htese are the masses at any
rate that were used in the measurements
of the period of this ascillation so
let's take a look at what happens when
we spin them off. As you can see
they spin off this bolt very freely and the
nut then continues to spin very, very
smoothly and stably in space. I'll
catch it now and bring it back and put
it on again. And if I'm very caref_al how
I hold this large launching platform,
why it will _ uh _ make sure that tha -
tub_- launching the bolt is equally
stable. Now I'll try to brace my arm
a little bit more firmly.
 Dump Tape 259-08
Page 2 of ll

259 21 12 32 SPT And Just to compare and to check that

I'll t_ke another one of these little
! bar magnets and hold it out the same
direction.You see I must keep these
i

magnets fairly far apart because they'll

affect each other. And so that's
about the direction of the Earth's
field right now. We have to keep
i checking that because as we orbit the
Earth, the directionof the Earth's
field keeps changing. And now I'll
I put this out here and you'ss see it
will orient itself in Just the same
way. With this side being the north
pole and the opposite side next to the
disk the south pole. As a matter of
fact, these magnets influence each other
over quite a large distance before we
begin spinning, you'll notice, for
exsmple, for what a distance they will
interact with each other. But now
that we've established that this is the
direction of the Earth's field, let's
set them to spinning. When we went to
_ try to spin these initially - Is this
the direction they were oriented? - by
themselves. Okay, now this is just about
the orientation they was at, parallel
to the Earth's magnetic field. And when
I set them spinning you see once again
they continued to spin pretty nearly
stably about the direction in which it
was launched. Now you can see a little
bit of wobble there and I'll try to explain
that in Just a minute.

259 21 14 23 SPT But the next thing I want to show is -

uh - when I tipped these in a direction
perpendicular to that, if it's not
spinning watch what it does. You see, it
spins right over _nd turns parallel to
the Earth's rield so that it's spin
axis - or ti's axis through the disk is
oriented with the Earth's field just the
way it was before. That's it's normal
 Dt_np Tape 259-08
/-_ Page 3 of ll

tendency is to tip right over and align

its o_zn diapole with the direction of
the Earth's field. Now I'm going to
spin it about this direction and we'll
see what its reaction is.

259 21 14 19 SPT All riaht, now it's more or less -

spin axis is perpendicular to the
Earth's field at this point. Now we
have to watch it for just a minute
here, but the thing that I want you to
observe is the fact its spin axis
is tipping over in another direction
you see how it's now tipped over to the
point almost facing the camera. And
now it has. It's Just about 90 degrees
hut not towards the Earth's field,
which is off to my right. Instead i
is tipped over towards the camera. How
this is called precession and it is
produced by the fact that whenever we
have a spinning object ans we try to
torque it or twist it in a direction
/-_ perpendicular to it's spin axis, then
it will actually react to tipping in
yet the other orthogonal directions.
And - uh - it is calused in this case
by spinning disk to precess perpen-
dicular orginal to both its spin direction
and the direction of the Earth's magnetei
field.

259 21 15 25 SPT So that's a property of gyroscopes

that can observed and is observed on
the ground. But it's not quite as conven-
tionaly observed as ti is here in zero-g
because we have no othe forces acting
onour gyro. In this case, the spinning
disk. We don't have any gimblas that
hook up that have to hold it and there's
no other perturbing - uh - factors here
in zero g. I'll try that one more time.
There is is spinning and instead of tipping
over towards the Earth's filed, ti seems
to beginning to tip towards the camera
precessing 90 degrees from the direction
Dump Tape 259-08
Page _ of ll

that it would have if it had not been

spinning. There, it's precessed about
90 degress in those few seconds.

259 21 16 08 SPT And it will continue to spin right on

aorund to precess right on round in
the direction it 's going. Not it' s
precessed s/anost 180 degrees. Now
we'll go back and check the Earth's
f_eld once more. We'll see whether or
not it's changed. Take another of may
little magnets. And it may have changed
a little bit but not a great deal in
the time that we have been talking. But
these magnets are already influencing
each other, as you can see. And they
will aligned themselves Just like that
in the direction of the Earth's field
and as we saw before - uh - there is
no precession. Okay. We'll try to
spin it with this extra little magnet
on top. It may - it has to be very
precisely aligned with the spin
axis or the extralittlepertur-
bation that it give it cause it
to wobble off to one side like that.

259 21 17 18 SPT Now you can see this very strange

behavior. I'll try to explain what
is causing this and it's related to
that little wobble that we saw
before. Now you see it'll spin
pretty stable for a few seconds and
then it'll stop. It'll tumble all
out of direction and then it'll
stabilize again. Now if you can explain
this properly, why it'll probably Be
a very challenging task. But I'ii
give you a clue, at least to what I
think the explanation is. Uh - The
torque in this case is not directly
about the center of mass of that spin-
ning disk. The torque is way out to
one side because I have the diapole,
you see, sticking quite a ways on out.
And that causes the whole gyro essentially
 Dump Tape 259-08
Page 5 of ll

to tumble ai_ter a few seconds and it

will tumble in the way it is -
whoops! It Just stabilized again. But
that's a rather complicatedproblem
to analyze, I suspect, and if you'd
care to try a thorough analysis of
it, why - uh - I'm sure there'd be
some people interested in this solution
that you came up. with.

259 21 18 35 SPT Yeah, ... anything else that comes to

mind, question left in your mind, AI?
Okay.

259 21 18 46 SPT Okay, that's the end of this one, folks.

TIME SKIP

259 21 31 32 SPT Okay. This is the SPT, on channel A,

with Mh87-2 Delta with crew debriefing
f- How effective are the various tools?
For the most part they do their job.
We did need a tool for the modifica-
tion of the refractometer which
had to be tailored from one of the
small scre_¢drivers. And we also needed
a tool for the ergometer pedal, which
we didn't have at all. We had to use
one that was the wrong size.

259 21 32 02 SPT Postural adjustments. I don't remember

any postural adjustments outside the
fact that in smail corners you tend to
squeeze into a small space, like
the up in the ATM windows. Major
muscles groups you employed in zero g?
Arm.

SPT Previous observed the handling large

masses? Oh, yeah, obviously it's no -
no problem at all with large masses.
Wish we had a turnaround here, we
could just move around to show how
easy it is to move a ton by hand.
Dump Tape 259-08
page6 of ll

Well, I think that task - I'm going

to leave that up to A1 or Jack to
discuss cause they've done them
(yawning) - the biggest share of
these maintenance tasks and - uh -
it really is a better question to ask
somebody that has done the majority.

259 21 32 54 SPT Prime method of removing reactive

forces when you must exert a linear
push or pull during a task. It all
depends upon where you are and what
you're doing. I suppose your - with
your feet when you can. If your feet
are - have a tied down place, then you
use them. If your feet are not tied
down, then you use your other arm.
So feet are preferable.

SPT Tendency to establish an IVA coordinate

system as a frame for reference? The
answer is yes. Uh - ... going down here
to the experiment area, wardroom, and
sleep compartment. There's no question
but what the orientation is the
same as ti was on the ground. Now we
can reorient that coordinate system
whenever we need to. But for most of
our work, 95 percent, we all use the
same coordinate systems. We've
practiced, for example walking around
on the overhead in the experiment area.
And it gives a very strange sensation.
You see brand new things. You just
have no idea how floor - how cluttered
up the ceiling, which is now the floor,
has become. Wires and cables and
everything else tumbling over. And it'
really like a whole new room that you
walk into. It's a fascinating new room.
It's a pleasant physcological sensa-
tions Just to see it with the lights
underneath your feet and it's just
an amazing uh - sort of - uh - situation
to find yourself in. But - uh - very
definitely there has been a coordinate
system established in these two areas.
Stand by.
 Dump Tape 259-08
I-_ Page 7 of ii

259 21 34 24 SPT Okay, we're back at it again on the

h87-something or other. And - uh -
that something or the other, in this
case, is 2 Delta. But now in the
workshop and - it's not quite so
clear. Going into the MDA, I frequently
go in without any reference at all.
But once I'm in there, then i orient
myself principally to - uh - the ATM
panel. So when you're going over to
the EREP stuff, I'm sure that Jack and
A1 orient themselves inrespect to
that. If you're at the STS you Just
reorient to that direction. So you hav
all these reference systems. You do use
them, but you Just reorient them as
necessary.

259 21 35 07 SPT Opinion concerning the odvis ability

of exerting desing influence to stand-
ardize - to type of snaps. Yes I
think it is - uh - definitely a design
F advisiblefeature. Uh - we finally
got them all learned, I think, and know
what fits to what. But there's no reason
to have as many kinds scattered around
as we do. And - uh - I think a lot
of thought ought to go into just what
this standard ought to be. And then
settle on a few. One standard forall
fittings, of course, isn't going to
work. But - uh - a lot of things like
these ... ought to he kicked out, thrown
away. It ought to be arranged so they
don't come undone in zero g. Now the
Calfaxs work very nicely. I think Calfsx
are - uh - gone up in my estimation, was
high already .... have gone furthere
down. They were low already. And that
sort of thing. We had ought to stand-
ardize and throw out the bad ones.

259 21 36 09 SPT Okay, that's the end of my comments from

the SPT on 2 Delta. These co_mets go
to the - uh - uh - M487 PI.

259 21 37 23 SPT Okay. This is the SPT on channel A, with

a message once again to Docotrs Herb Fry
(?) Paul Lowman ( $ and Larry Punkelman
(?) at Goddard Space Flight Center.
Repeating some of the information that
I sent down yesterday and got cut-off on
the - uh - tape recorder when they
rewound it in the middle of the
conversation. Okay, Larry, I think
I was in the middle of a discussion
with you or information for you when
the conversation got cut-off yesterday.
They read me back the last part of
what I had said. And I was describing
for you as best I could the - uh -
transition coloring between sunrise and
sunset and vice-a-versa [sic]. No, no
between at sunrise and sunset. And - uh -
uh - it terminated about the point where
I was pointing out that above the normal
coloring where it begins to transitition
into the black, there are changes from
white to - whitish gray to blue to
/_ blue to white several times. Now I
believe I mentioned on one occasion
at least four of the blue bands were
observed. More normally there are not
tat many. But I only see these things
at sunrise and sunset and I think
perhaps I - you didn't copy yesterday
and - And I'm inclined to think they're
related to - uh - related to - uh -
degree to which I _n dark adapted or
the degree to how - to which there is
additional light present and being
scattered from the windows.

259 21 39 13 SPT During the daytime when you look at

the horizon you simpley can't see them.
But my guess is it's mostly due to the
light - additional light scattered from
all the dust and everything else on the
window. At any rate, I'm only seen it
at sunrise and sunset. But you can
see it almost any sunrise, sunset. There
will be one or two transistions from
 Dump Tape 259-08
Fage 9 of ll

white to blue before it - uh -

goes on out to the blackness of
the - uh - night sky. Now - _l -
I don't whether these - these things
are related in any way to the noetilucent
clouds. I've not been able to see any
thing that I would identify as a
noctilucent cloud. That doesn't mean
I've not seen some. It may be just that
I don't knwo how to recognize them.
Now of cours, I know there're altitudes
up the, I guess 70, 80 kilometers or
so and - uh - uh - something like cirrus
perhaps the only - closest thing to it
I can imagine woudl be - uh -
occasions cirruslike clouds that mofe
agains the background of the lower
cumulus clouds as the spacecraft flies
overhead. But - uh - no way to tell
Just what their altitude was without
seeing how - what their relative motion is.

259 21 _0 28 SPT My guess is I've not seen any noctilucent

F clouds. _._at these things are at sunrise
and sunset - uh - there - uh - this
structure in the - uh - upper stratis-
phere, I - I Just don't knwo. But there
are very much like that picture that
we have in the book that - uh - you
fellows prepared for us. Except in some
cases, I can see more thatn one transi-
tion. I also talked Paul and Herb a
little about some of the other geological
features that uh - we have seen. b_ -
As I guess you're aware, people have -
uh - become - uh - have become very busy
in providing us with targets to look at
photograph and describe. Most of
this is channeled through our Earth
resources personnel at Johnson Center.
Uh - they do have access to technical
report that was - you fellows wrote.
I don't know th what extent they have
relied upon it, but I do know that
many of the things that they asked for
are covered in your booklet.
 Dump Tape 259-08
Page i0 of ii

259 21 41 32 SPT So - uh - I think as much as anything

that your book been valuable to us
from the standpoint of preflight training
and making us aware of the many things
to been seen. Ant ti is really a
fantastic view some of the sights that
we have. For example, looking down
the Andes toeard the tip of South America
on a clear day is really breathtaking.
I had that view for example, on EVA day
about a - 3 weeks ago. Standing on top
of the ATM, flying over the Pacific and -
uh - in this case, I was looking north
when we were crossing down about mid-chili
and could see the horizon for 270 degrees
from - uh - whole western coast of
South America was clear. It's probably
the most beautiful sight I have ever
seen. But - uh - uh - all of the - uh -
mountain building going on and the
faults lines and so forth are really
amazing to behold.
f
259 21 h2 28 SPT And another one that is particularly
impressive is - uh - the Alps. I had
no idea what enourmous features they are
and how they spread over - over - uh -
not only Just Switzerland hut on
through the Baltics and out toward
Russia. I guess they're called Carpathian
on over there. But the Alps really hav
some faults and valleys that go down
through there are really impressive.
We've had a lot of time over Australia
and New Zealand. And I think we got
a lot of photographs of that, although
New Zealand was frequently cloudy. Oh -
We do have at least several good photo-
graphs in there. So your books have been
very helpful to us. And - uh -
uh - we'll have to spend a lot of time
going over all this photography when
we get back because we're coming back
with essentially no extra film. We hav
a week to go and we're having to be
 Dump Tape 259-08

carefulto budget - relatively

careful not to run out before this last
week. So - uh - uh - thanks to you
all three again for the preparation of
those books which we have onboard and -
uh - which I have had out and used on
a number of occasions. Uh - This message
goes to - uh - our good friends Larry Dimlight
Dunkelman (?), Herb Fry (?), and
Paul Lowman from the SPT. These

A. The subject is the debriefing of - uh -
the last ATM run at 20:54. I got the Nu z
update. I went through the - uh - J0P 12
dog. I - uh - made the mistake on the first
two exposures not slewing. That's an
unforgivable sin but - uh - we were in a
quiet area. So perhaps it won't bother you
too much. But on the - uh - 200-minute
40-second exposures I did slew. Uh - JOP 6
- uh - came off as advertised. And - uh -
Well, it came off, but not as advertised.
_ Uh - we had a hangupon the - uh - S056.
Therefore, in order to make - uh - sure
he got some data ... as a matter of fact,
I got the shopping list items. I elected
t - run it PATROL, long and in PATROL,
SHORT in - uh - MANUAL EXPOSURE. So I
timed them every one and - uh - turned them
on and shut them off according to the book.
And I confirmed the numbers with the ground
- uh - and - uh - he got his PATROL - uh -
LONG and his PATROL, SHORT. But - uh -
in waiting for the FILTER 2 - uh - not

This next Vanguard pass is the last pass
of the evening and we're opened to have
that set up and to clear for your pre -
your private comm. And I did have a question
for you about one of the things you did
earlier today. It had to do with the
photography of the S183 stow. Uh -
we - you reported down the transporter 02
uh - where we had the transportor 03
scheduled. And - uh - we think probably that -
that the film on transporter 03 was
uh - used up earlier but we weren't sure what -
which. We understand the configuration of
the transportors but we were interested to
know - uh what happened on the 183
photography.

261 O0 54 49 PLT I got the - _ - prep when I got the stow.

I Just did it on different - uh - uh -
transporters on account of the - uh - 07, I
guess, was less under required amount. And
uh - I was able to get all the stow in on -
uh - the one that - uh - I did. So - uh -
rest, I guess, in on the film log. But I
did get a photograph of prep and the
stow.

CC Okay. Thank you.

261 00 55 12 PLT Yes sir. Okay, A1, I'll get that for
you, just a second here.

261 l0 08 h7 PLT Good morning, space fans, this is Jack

on channel A. The subject is the
debriefing of - uh - ther first ATM
run of the day which began at
09:27, with - uh - a little VTR. We
- uh - looked at the corona; we
looked at the XUV Monitor a couple of
times, and - uh - then we took a tour
of the Sun's active regions. We
reported a brand new active region
- uh - 270 on the limb, and we
designated taht to be the - uh -
new - that's number 31, the old
number 02. And - uh - it's - uh -
apparently has - uh - apparently is
the - uh - brightest - uh - thing on
the Sun at the moment in XUV, but
we'll talk about that in a minute.
Ah - I didn't notice anything other
- uh - anything else of significance
- uh - on the tour around the Sun.
And then we did the JOP 6. We - uh -
-_ got it all just like you requested
and - uh - S056 - uh - ran it off
without a hangup in - uh - PATROL NORMAL,
LONG, and SHORTS a few times. At that
time we - uh - went observing time.
And - uh - about the only thing I had
to run was - uh - S055, and so I -
uh - selected - uh - shopping list
item number 5 and then went to active
region 27 and active region 31.

261 l0 l0 ll PLT I - uh - peaked up the detectors at -

uh - 63, that is, Grating all zeros on
active region 27, and - uh - ran the
RRATING AUTO SCAN, DETECTORS 1 and 2.
I then did the same thing for - for
active region 31. By the wa_v, on
actual range I can get out of active
region 27 on DETECTORs 3, GRATING all
zeros is about ... thousand. However,
I was able to get'era an extra leg of
8,000 s_.e setting on active region 31; so -
uh - we conculded the rev with - uh -

261 l0 45 02 PLT Hey, okay, space fans, - uh - here

we are in Skylab - uh - orbiting about
275 miles above the Earth, weightless condition,
but that doesn't change the fact that
everyday we've got to go through the
daily routine as far as brushing teeth
_and shaving and what not is concernec. We -
nh - have the convensence that it takes
to do the job. Okay, we have a picture of
A1 Bean - uh - getting out of his little
windup razor to do some shaving. Good
mechanical device; we also have safty
razors, but - uh - they are very difficult
to rinse off up here and to clean up.
It takes longer to shave with a safety
razor, so we got this little mechanical
windup razor - shaver we can use to do
the Job. Of course one thing that could
happen is all the little whiskers could
float all over, so we also have to have
a shaver that contains the little whiskers.
They don't fly around and float all over;
they're Just contained within the shaver.
And when the spring runs out of tension,
Edd window strain round about out why
you just wind it up again, as I am doing
now. Cause you have to fasten yourself down.
Turst his feet - his legs, just wedges
himself in between the - uh - walls of
the waste manage - management compartment,
and positions himself very nicely, in front
of the mirror.

261 l0 47 18 PLT Cause we don't have anything that's made

out of glass up here could break and -
uh - fly all over. So our mirrors are -
uh - polished metal. See here. Been
cleaned today especially for this show. We
each little have - we each have a little
overnight kit, such as you would travel with
on the ground, got our shaver in it.

the shaver now and cleans it out by
tapping it against the - uh - screen in
front of the fan or the blowers. We'll
collect it on this little screen, and
then - uh - later on we can clean the

going to clean the head off, put it away,

wash cloths right there to clean up with.
Okay, get the red one.

261 l0 50 49 PLT There's a little hot water dispenser right

there. That's our sink. Here's a bar

to hold it to the magnet that's in there.
He squirts a little water on his rag, we've
a wat - hot water heater. See the little
drops of water flying all over. Water doesn't
go down here. Now he puts his washrag
in the washrag squeezer to get the water out
J of it. Holds it out and hangs, it up to dry.

261 Ii 56 36 PLT And we should be all set to start our

second exposure at 12:00. The back has been
checked out at - uh - 2h frames a second for
a couple of seconds and is now on time at
160th. Clicked it and for now we'll - uh -
go off the - uh - headset and come back to the
RECORD later.

261 12 03 39 PLT Okay, S183 again. The - uh - the exposure -

the previous exposure was terminated - uh - if
the motor was heard to operate. Second one
was initiated. If the motor worked, the - uh -
the shutter opened at 12:02:52, which will
give us 21 minutes required to - uh - complete
the exposures before the - uh - end of the
period which is 12:23. And we have a
1260-second exposure set in on PLATE
number 2 which, of course, is not in there, hut
the - uh - the stepper motor in the
okate advancing system is working_ and
this is field the Papa My Charlie, PMC.
The ROTATION is set at 203.8 the TILT is
lb.3.

261 12 Oh 30 PLT And - uh - with that we'll go off the air

for about - uh - 15 or 20 minutes, and then
for this to time out.
261 12 22 31 PLT Okay, here we are again, space fans, on S183.
We're gonna wait for this here shutter
to close, and if it doesn't close in 25 seconds,
we are going to close it. I'm looking at
my timepiece; it ought to be closing in Just
about 2 seconds, if it's working right.

Well, it didn't, so we're gonna close

it.

261 12 23 00 PLT MARK. We close it right at 12:23; stepper

motor is stepping, and ! timed the shutter -
uh - should have closed precisely at 22:52,
but I did - it didn't close 8nd I - uh -
had to take care of that at precisely 23:00.
And - uh - so it was probably very close to
closing. So the PLATE ADVANCE Jumped up to
number 3 and we'll - uh - go ahead and
secure this machine and - uh - this information
will go to Dr. Courtes of France and - uh -
over in - uh - building 4 probably ought
to go to - uh - Wally Teague and - uh -
couple of those troops over there.
That's the end of the message.

261 12 23 49 PLT Thank you.

261 13 23 09 SPT This is the SPT on channel A, debriefing

the last stage ATM pass. Uh - we did all
of the - uh - uh - Maxi-raster and - uh the
initial J0P 6 of the - on that schedule.
And then at the end had a few m_nutes left
over so went back to Sun center and gave
fast scan for 43 seconds.

SPT Took a look at the corona although I

couldn't see an_thing different - uh -
I thought your extra four frames would be
well spent there, Bob. And then at the
end - uh - went to magnesium l0 and - uh -
did a J0P 7 although I'm not sure about
whether DC [?] dump will encroach too much.

260 13 23 36 SPT It looks like - uh- yeah it looks like there's

been significant - uh - attenuation there,
so you might very well - uh - get - uh - an
uh - atomic oxygen profile out of this anything
there ... and George. So - uh - looks like
the J0P 7 - uh - connect ... also.

261 13 23 51 SPT End of debriefing to the ATM PIs and planners

from the SPT.

261 14 04 06 SPT Okay, for the _31 PIs. lik_

261 14 04 26 SPT And - uh - here's a few questions that you

might want to answer either now or a little
later. And we'll moving it on to the _ section.
You'll get em later, he says, so - uh - this

261 14 58 12 SPT This is the SPT on channel A debriefing
the A_ pass that just finished here at
about 14:57 Sulu. Ira - started off on
schedule *** building block 6. We were
... operators right here at - uh - that
pointon building block 6, er JOP 6,
building block 2, and 54 got in an extra
_20S256 that they may not have wanted.
But - uh - one extra sequence there that
maybe we shouldn't have had.

261 14 58 42 SPT Uh - Then went into the limb scan program -

where JOP IA and - uh - went to the north
pole, and - uh - uh - there was a rather
ragged appearance to the - uh - spicules.
They all appeared to be more of less -
uh - uh - normal to the - uh - limb - uh -
bu there was a bit of uneveness to it and
I tried to pick a spot where - uh -
the spicules were fairly prominent although
you couldn't see the individual ones very
well. And there were also no individual
spicules sticking up above the rest as is
sometimes observed. I got what appeared
to be the most likely location, within, ofh,
 Dump Tape 261-04
.- Page 3 of 13

5 degrees or so of the - uh - north

pole and rolled to put the limb horizontal
as near as I could to what the - uh - uh -
two building blocks called for.

261 14 59 42 SPT I had a bit of observing time and then

went over - uh - to active region 27.
Aligned the XUV slit along the - uh - uh -
parallel to the neutral line, there was
a - uh - section of bright *** lines -
farily substantial length, more or less
straight appeared to be along htat, _nd
- uh- a partical MIRROR AUTO RASTER.

261 15 O0 i0 SPT Then there about - uh - three rather prominent

bright spots somewhat to the west of the
_** and i took one of those which is
particularly bright on the XUV _,'ON. It
has a very small H-alpha signature and the
coordinates you get *** uh - pick it up on
S055 and it does match exactly where our
crosshairs are on the XUV MON.

_ 261 15 00 36 SPT Oxygen 6 starts at 3000; inside of a couple

of minutes it was down to 1000 but still
it was the brightest spot. Uh - one the -
uh - uh - brightest element in the vicinity
of that bright spot. So I went ahead and
did the GRATING AUTO SCAN at that point -
uh - and then I picked up with l,qP_ROLIllE
RASTER immediately following. _ithin about
4 or 5 minutes, can't remember, it went
3000 again. It dropped from 3000 do_n% to
1 and back up to 3 again. And so - uh -
after doing the GRATING AUTO SCA/,_,I did a -
uh - a mlni-AUTO RASTER and then some )41_qOR
LINE SCANS to complete the - uh - orbit
and also pick up JOP 7 at the end of the
orbit, so I was Just doing I_REOR LIllE
SCA/_S across thKt bright spot - uh - to
; complete the orbit. Also took another
240 exposure for 82B on that bright spot.
So that might turn out to be of some interest.

261 15 01 31 SPT About read,v to power down for the EREP.

261 15 32 53 CDR This is information for EREP. There has

been a desire on the psrt of EREP to
know what number B-6 reads some 20 minutes

reads about 48 - that's 48 percent on B-6.
We will be back later for a little more

went to check I Just read you the number.
So - uh - B-6 now is 50 percent. Let me
go back and give you some good information.
Give this thing time to settle dog, m, we

the EREP pad, I'Ii tell you why.

Once you've shut that ATM down and
start thinking EREP, you don't
think about A_ much any more,
until after the ER-IP's over. And
it ought to be sequenced in there
on this pad op and it should be
done for the C&D and it ought to
be right at the top of this maneuver
pad at the time you want it, cause
that's what he's got out looking
at and thinking about - the VTB operator.

261 15 52 09 CC Okay, A1, we copy that, and - uh -

that was one of the reasons _
hoisted up over Honeysuckle to you
also.

261 15 52 15 CDR We goofed. Everybody gets his mind

on m_ing the maneuver on time and
getting all this equipment powered
up and you - we should have _ritten
- it do_n on our pads or something
cause you really get - get in the
EREP loop and you' re not in the

to us. Doing the EREP subroutine
that you can't get up. _'_atever they
call it, the computer _ill send you

channel A, debriefing the 18:43 ATM run.
I ran it off - uh - pretty much as you -
as you had requested. We got the shopping
list item 17. And - uh - then we - uh -
ran the MIRROR, LINE SCAN at - uh -
quiet region i. Now there was a little
bit of confusion about why we specified
a - uh - building block i0 and then
on 18. And I intrepreted it - uh -
that to mean that you wanted it to - uh -
be run for a little while at slit center,
which - uh - J0P 2 specifies and -
uh the rest of the time at - uh - line 25
which - uh - building block 18 - uh -
specifies. And - uh - I checked it on
the ground down there and apparently
what they wanted to do was run the whole
thing a slit center - uh - and so that's
what was done. So the - uh - pointing was
at - uh - at the - _ - MIRROR, LINE
SCAN was at 80 are seconds positive. And
that was run tl_ough zero zero.

261 22 h6 19 SPT Okay, SPT on channel A is giving

you information of the - uh - last
pass which Just finished about
- uh - looks like about - uh -
22:h5. Now we did everything on
the - uh - schedule. And after
that we went over to a bright spot
and did a very small H-alpha
signature visible. Uh - very
small point almost - uh - noticeable
- uh - nothing spectacular but
it has a good XUV signature and
- uh - oxygen B intensities were
up - uh - 2 or 3000, at that point.
Very good contrast with the
background, like - uh - oh, 50 or
100 to one. And so we did the
GRATING AUTO SCAN, took an 82B
- uh - uh - short 2 plus 40. And
then did a - sort of a - uh -
portion of a - uh - mini-raster
at that - uh - spot. Then went
over and tried to pick up another
bright spot didn't find it, but
didn't really have time to do
much with it Just gave it a sort
of a mini-raster.Uh - didn'thave
enough time left to - uh - give it
a proper - uh - MAR spectral analysis.
And then hurriedly went to Stun
center and set up on 766 for S055,
JOP 7 and got - uh - 52 - uh - - uh -
initiated in the appropriate - uh -
JOP 7 MODE also. So - uh - everything
was - uh - done as per plan_ except a
couple a bits of information extra
on - uh - bright spots. And now
some frames remaining: - uh -

262 08 04 40 SPT This is the SPT on channel A, debriefing

What we did on this first half hour of
this short ATMpass which ended about
08:04. Uh - First thing we did was to
do your shopping list 17 at Sun center
and then went over and took a look at
active region 31, and gave it a partial
GRATING AUTO SCAN, and a partial MIRROR
AUTO RASTER and an XUV - uh - SHORT 2 plus
40 - uh - which should have been a pretty
good one because there was a nice long -
uh - more or less linear - uh - bright line
parallel to the neutral line. And after
that we went over and picked up a - uh -
bright spot, one which I think _-lll not
be steady here in the next three orbits so
I'm going to give you a little information
on this because it is - uh - pretty bright
in the XUV and a pretty good contrast on
the oxygen 6. It's to the - uh - northwest
about three-tenths in the coordinate, report.

262 08 05 36 SPT "Unfortunately, we're not going to have

any H-alphabecausewe can't get any frames
taken this mgrning. There is a very small
H-alpha signature. It Just looks like a
liZtle bright 4 in the uh - backround
H-alpha, so you can notice it once you know
where it is - but uh - had you not known
that there was an XUV signature, you wouldn't
have picked it out as being anything very
spectacular. And - uh - I didn't have time
to pick up another bright spot though I've
some settings on that coming up on the next
orbit. And then I did give you a little
bit of J0P 7, MIRROR LINE SCAN. I don't
think it was pointed at anything in partie- -_
ttlar 17 grating zero. Not extink - It's
certainly not extinguished by any means at
effective sunset. I'm not sure whether
these other lines are going to have any
larger atomic oxygen cross sections but
if not, I think l'm going to be going to
a 41 where I can expect to see a I0 which
I know it's going to he extinguished at a
7- '

high altitude. Whenever I have time,

I'm going to be sitting on 1941 unless I
hear otherwise. Now we'd appreciate a
verbal update if you think there is another
grating position that's as good or better
from a standpoint of a - a getting direct
reabsorption from a higher altitude. We do
need to get some lines that are going to
be absorbed higher up since effective sunset
is cutting into our Sun availability time.

262 08 07 04 SPT And that about finishes off this first orbit

262 09 39 h5 SPT Okay - uh - Sl°T with info to the

ATM PIs and planners devriefing the
ATM pass that Just finished here at
about 09:37. The - uh - J0P 6 went
off as scheduled. And then as far as
bright spots are concerned, there's
about three good bright spots - uh - !
over towards the - uh - west limb. !
Now the further bright spot at about
- uh - 110/0.7 or 0.8 has probably i
been designated an active region, I
believe that's the one over there.
The H-alpha signature is very bright.
Uh - but my guess is that's the one
/-. that's been identified; just a second,
I'll check the numbers.

262 09 _0 35 SPT That's probably the one that's

• designated active region 30. Uh - on
the map it's called 0.5 and there's
really nothing at 0_5 radii. Uh -
there is another one a little closer to
Sun center and another one a little
further to the north. And the one a
little further to the north I gave
a bit of information on during the first
rev of the day this morning. Uh - gave
a GRATING AUTO SCAN and partial RASTER
on that. A/so the one that's now at about
- uh - 0.3 radii - uh - looks a
little further developed and - uh -
perhaps - u/% - has a little more potential
- uh - uh - uh - study later
on, so that's the one I picked this
morning - uh - for this particular rev
as the more thorough - uh - bright -
uh - spot to study that we're doing the -
past rev and the next rev too.
DumpTape262-02

262 09 41 27 SPT So "_

" uh my coordinates, which
you've got on telemetry, of course,
are - uh - 292 roll minus 132 up - or
down - let's see - it's down 132 and
right plus 456. Uh - to put me on the
bright spot. And it's got pretty good
contrast, at least in oxygen 6, and we
picked up - uh - well, there really
is just a very small spot Just a few
acr seconds or go, and it does have a
small H-alpha signature. Again I looked
at the H-alpha scope, - H-alpha 2 -
and - uh - found nothing detectable
until - uh - I looked closely at just the
right spot on the XUV MON, and sure
enough there is just a little bright - uh -
there.
i ?

262 09 42 08 SPT As _ matter of fact, there actually

two_- uh - there's one to the east and
oneito the west, the one to the west
is slightly more - uh - bright, so it's
the westernmostof these two little bright
dots that I selected. I also rolled to
make sure that the XUV slit only crossed
one of the two bright spots and not
the other. And - uh - that just carried
out the building blocks ll and l0 as
specified. And will, of course, continue
the study the next rev and it look like
it ought to be a - uh - uh - fairly
interesting location to look at.

262 09 52 29 CDR This is the CDR - uh - talking about M092.

We got off in time, going up to

2_62i0 20 i0 SPT SPT on channel A, info to the Pls -

ATM PIs and planners - for the last
rev on the bright spot 1 we were
looking at, I think I may have mixed the
contrast, it's oxygen 6 of 50 to i00 to i.
Nov I forgot to put the decimal, I meant
5 or I0 to i. And I'm hack on the same
bright spot - uh - for the next rev
here, It had moved - uh - very slightly
over the course of a half hour and the
-- uh - uh maximum flux looks more like -
- uh . 3000. counts now, just about - uh -
5_Qpercent to a 1O0 percent above -
uh - the maximum flux I _s managing or
able to get on the last rev. So we're
off and running on bright spot 1 again
at this time and - uh - I'll complete
the debriefing at the end of the orbit.

262 I0 21 01 SPT Incidentally - uh - one other thing I

forgot to mention the time I did give you
a bit of J0P 7 data on GRATING zero.
U_ - It is not clear whether or not we're

242 ii i0 20 SPT Okay, SPT ca channel A with information for

the ATM Pls and planners. A debriefing
of a ran which Just ended at II:i0 Zulu.
I went back to bright spot i. i think I
mentioned on the last - uh - message that
it had moved Just a little bit. But - uh -
completed steps i, 3 and - uh - 4 on - uh -
JOP 17 Alfa. Then I was running a hit
ahead of schedule and so I started am extra
- uh - step. It's essentially - uh - step
2. Because I noticed that - uh - stand by.
Ckay, becuase I noticed that the intesity
had not really fallen off - uh - more than
about half w_r, but stepping 5 to 6 arc
seconds, to either side. And so I stepped
on out to about right 1463, which was some -
uh - correction - I stepped out to about -
uh - right 475, which is some - uh - 18
arc seconds to the right. This on the inital
bright spots to get a tinge of little
bit - uh - uh - quieter region.

262 11 ii hl SPT And - uh - esssentially repeated the grating

auto scan and - uh - taking UV exposures.
This completing step 5 of 17A. Still had
a little extra observing time so - uh -
I went through into the bright spot. I
believe this was the - uh - bright spot
that I used two revs agak, but l'm not
certain. And had time _Imost for a
complete grating auto scant not quite,
and a 40-second 82B exposure on that
position right spot. And then went to
Sun center and did a - uh - item 17 for
S052 and - -

262 11 12 19 SPT I was below the 400 kilometer - uh - uh -

region, but I don't believe it made any
difference - uh - ttok _ look at the
white light coronagraph after the fast scan
and - uh - no indication of any - uh -
Earth shine or limb - uh - uh - gathering
coming in from the bright limb of the Earth -
uh - coming into the picture.
°f .- ..

262 ii 12 39 SPT So "l_believe - uh - uh - item 17 - uh-

should look satisfactory for - uh - 52.
l was by then doing mirror line scans on
grating zero. And it's possible there's
some JOP 7 information on there, but it's
going to be pretty skimpty, if it is
usable. End of debriefing - uh - for the
ATM Pls and planners from the SPT.

262 11 17 45 SPT Jack's PRD is 433. 433 for Jack's PRD.

Owen's PRD is 223. 223 for the SPT. 580

PRD. That completes the PRD readings
for the day.

262 ii 37 18 CDR Okay this if for M092 interested individuals.

Uh -ithe CDR. Here's what we did this
morning so that we don't get confused
_ith ithe data. First we ran an M092
and I didn't turn on the blood pressure,
also, it wsas an erratic start. We finished
that. Okay, after that was over we noticed
the blood pressure wasn't on wasn't Jack
Lousma. Then we did test number 2. Okay,
then we went back and did - uh - M092 again.
This time it c_me off perfectly, I hope.

262 ii 37 53 CDR Next we went - did a test e1,_her i.

When we finished that, we did the arm test,
and for the arm test we had to use band
CT, and Charlie Tango. When the arm test
was finished, we did M093, and at this
point we were 16 minutes - uh - time
remiaining on M093. So everything's
going well now. Sorry for the delay.
CDR out.

262 Ii 38 34 CDR There's one thing interesting about that

arm test I didn't quite understand.
Both times after the test was over, even
though I did a null and cal beforehand, the
n_,_1 afterwards wss one instead of zero,
and the cal was off-scale high.
Dump Tape 262-03
Page 3 of 3

262 ii 38 48 CDR And"%hat was both times. Now, Jack

didn't move his arm, we didn't move the
cuff or anything else. I'm not really
sure what that shows, hut that it sure
is strange. It may indicate that the
cuff itself is really not gripping his
right arm that tight. Another point to
he made is his left arm is too _-Ii for
the smallest cuff which is the 1213. So
we used his right arm for that test.
However, his right arm as I said, I don't
know, maybe when he gets thin it takes
longer to - uh - come back than it does
a leg. Anyhow you have the data, and it'd
be interesting to figure it out. CDR out.

262 ii 40 39 SPT SPT with a memo - uh - note to the - uh -

ATM Pls and planners. I you'll note I
didn't have time to get the right roll in
on that - uh - h3-second fast scan at the
end of the last orbit - uh - for S052.
b"n - l'm sure you will ... that on the
telemetry, hut - uh - Just sort of
a note to draw your attention to it at this
time.

go to Dr. Jerry Homick and the 131 PI
including- uh - is- uh - Dr. Earl Miller.
Describe the degree of difficult -
difficulty relative to ground-based trials
•" spatial orientation judgement. I
attained no extra difficulty. I always
had a sense of where the or - uh -
orientation was. Whether or not it's
• right or not is something I don't know.
Any conflicts through sensory cues? No,
•., : ! I don't think so. You always had a - uh -
.... an opinion as to where each of these
• directions was.

262 13 17 52 SPT " No experience - no sense of the upright.

No, although there's always a tendency
when working in the experiment compart-
. ment to think of - uh - up being more
or less the one-g up, still in terms of
_ say what'sup with respectto Earth
center or something like that - uh -
those thoughts just never occur to you.
And I did not sense it today - uh - ,
nor have I ever really - uh - had any
sense of that. Were your judgements
influenced by auditory? No, they were •
not; everything was nice and quiet.

262 13 18 23 SPT Did the line target appear stable under

the complete control? Uh - yes, it is
stable and, of course, there's some
little oscillation like when you're doing
your 0GI test, if you look very care-
fully. But I didn't happen to notice
any today at all and it - uh - did just
the way I wanted it. And no additional
comments - uh - uh - that I have. Uh -
so that's - uh - the - uh - debriefing

262 15 46 13 CDR CDR debriefing the ATM run at 14:57. .

It went smoothly. The - uh - J0P 6
step 2 went _ell. Then we did the

finished up with the - another J0P 6
step 2 at a different roll. After
that, it suggested ovserving time,
but I determined the ground had let
me know that when I changed my line
pointing to l0 ..., it was no longer
printed on the front, which m_es
sense. And - I then sent it up to
sun and - uh - uh - did that again.
And it was getting to the end of the
orbit and I was ... and I thought
perhaps you might like -uh - another
standard in 52, so I gave you one with
a roll of 42M, which would - which
would fill the - with the initial roll.
And - uh - hope that's Just what
you had in m_nd. CDR out.

It's a little hit more difficult for
the mental ... unit ... nothing new I
didn't find anything new today. The

F •
Dump TApe 262-07
Page 2 of 5

only thing I found new today, was

whenever I'd wabble myself around in
the chair and wiggle a little bit,
I'd tend to think the chair was moving
and it wasn't. But it felt like to
me it was. Now, I don't know whether
or not my senses are becoming more
sensitive to that, but I felt like the
chair was moving but I knew it was
not. It tended to - uh - cause me
-to - uh - bias my angle drom one.
But I say to myself, "No. It isn't
moving. Put 'eraback where they
were." So - uh - by wiggling be-
tween run - between measurement, I
could cuase my measurement to be
different if I wanted to. Did you
experience any conflict between
• °. internal frame. I Just discussed
ft. Did you at any time experience
a positiveness in the upright?

262 16 40 03 CDR I always do, but - I - sometimes I

know it isn't right. But, I wiggle
sometimes. I say, "Okay, the vertical
_ust moved," but I know it didn't,
so t.Bat's it. Were your Judgements
influenced by auditory ...? Not at
all. Other environmental factors.
No, I think the only thing that in-
fluenced it was the intellect Jarring
movpm_nt and sometimes pressure of
the chair. But mostly it is intellect.
Did the line target appears stable, ...
to ... you off. It never moved ...
Additional comments and observations.
_one except that - uh - uh - , I don't
-except for that sort of more sensitive
to the feeling that it appeared moving
when it isn't. All the rest is - precisely
the same as it has been. That infor-
mation goes to biomed 131-2. CDR out.

262 16 49 21 PLT Okay. This is the PLT looking over

Salt Lake City. Their lake is a aqua
blue color. The reservoir east of
Prono is a dark blue color. Utah Lake
is light greenish color. Looks like
 Dump Tape 262-07
Page 3of 5

there's a lot of J11nk in it. You

can see a lot of sedementation - uh -
uh - streams in it. Salt Lake itself
covered over, hut you can see the
north part, which is the - uh - brown-
isk red. The south part is a deeper
aclua blue and is pretty much the same
color as Bear Lake. And that's about all
_e can - uh - see of - uh - Salt Lake
City at this time. And we're past it
now, so there's no point in trying to
describe it further. There's clouds
over it. They're mostly - uh - cirrus
type clouds with a little hit of stratus
m_xed in. I'd say the coverage is
ro,_ly 50 percent. Uh - it's primarily
over Salt Lake City itself. Partially
over - uh - Salt Lake and - uh - ...
you but that's about all we can say at
this time. And so we'll sign off for
now any maybe you can give us a few
co_nent s later.
,F

262 16 51 49 PLT Okay, those comments were for the hand-

held photo and the EREP people one -
u_ - Salt Lake City. We attempted
to answer the first set of questions of
observational plan - uh - surface
water site. And l'm trying to read
Salt Lske with its ... where the .,.,
r-_lway or whatever its goes across.
T%_ Brownish red to the north and the
deeper blue to the south. I described
that as Utah Lake. Just seeing a
fairly light green color with light
brown streaks of sedement streaks in
them. I described Bear L_e as being
a more of a deeper blue. The aqua
color lake - kinda aqua color like
the soutk part of the Great Salt Lake.
He identified some sedementation ...
in _.. Okay, and - uh - ... Air Force
Base and Just located it because a -
th_ Wind over. And the reservoir worth
of Ogden - uh - was also in the clouds.
But - uh - the reservoir east of Prono
_as clear and it was - uh - ... the
f colorations, were ahle to detect the
Dump Tape 262-07
Page _ of 5

surface water study on this pass

over the Great Salt Lake and that's
about all you can - uh - have time
to pick up. You first have to ... by
the major area that's pushed ...
and I was able to do that. And then
I was able to determine what color
they were with no problem up here
at _11. All colors stand out quite
well providing you don't have cloud
_hadowing the objective. So, that's -
that's so much for that. Following
the next pass, we get to go on to
other -other forces of this obser-
vational plan. But that's it for now.
And also, I was asked to - we've taken
•.Any photos of Salt Lake City and so
ve need to m_e it Nuz.

262 16 50 59 PLT We don't need anymore of them. Also, we

looked over the Arizona, Nevada area.
And there's Just too much to look at s.11
in one next week to cover Salt Lake City
and this other area too. All I can say
_s notice the major linear features
morth/south parallel features primarily,
_rfth mountaineous regions and we photo-
graphed this area other times ... so I'm
sure that the drainage features are ...
photographed. And you can see them from
up here, the s'.-ller triburtaries coming
out of the hills running toward lower
ground then apparently running into
5_gger and bigger rivers and that type
of observation is easily made from
here as well. And that's one good way
to determine what the elevation level
By ... to know what the drainage sys-
tem is. That's about the only way from
here really because elevation ... some
angles exist. At the moment, we lowered
some angles ... is much easier to see,
Just as they were on the moon. I didn't
see any circular features - didn't notice
any, although there are meteor crators
down there ... located. So that's the
slm,,ary of my observations on this pass.

262 17 27 32 SPT SPT on channel A, debriefing the last

run. Well, that was a busy one, for
the following reasons. First of all,
we got in a pretty good JOP 7 - uh -
for S055 in both the beginning and end
of the orbit. Uh - GRATING zero but -
uh - the CMG dump inhibited all the lines
were - uh - properly extinguished - uh -
at sunset by the time we got to time
remaining zero. Uh - so both sunrise
and sunset should be good data.

262 17 26 40 SPT I got in the item 17 at the beginning of

the orbit for S052 and - uh - then
began to work on the coronal hole. Now
I took a coronal and XUV M0N picture at
the beginning of the orbit to - uh -
provide a little record of - uh - just
what it was I thought I was seeing on
the XUV MON, because the - uh - coronal
hole - uh - over about ii0 degrees/0.h
is very interesting. It can hardly be
discerned - uh - on the XUV MON, just
a suggestion of somewhat darker area. If
I were Just looking for coronal hole, I
would probably have never picked that one.
So to assist in finding the proper
locations - uh - I took the grating up
to 19hl and used magnesium i0 to help
find the boundary.

262 17 27 32 SPT And there does appear to be a fairly

distinct boudary both near active - the
active region - Let me see what the
number is.

262 17 27 h0 CDR This is the CDR recording some infor-

mation on 183. At exactly 25 seconds
ago on my mark -

262 17 27 _9 CDR MARK - we threw the - uh - sequence switch

to - from STANDBY to START, beginning the
first exposure. This is going to be a
620-second exposure. And it's going to be
field number M57, rotation 333.1 because
4 Dump Tape 262-08
Page 2 of 6

the "Nuz pad was plus 4 and the Nu z

actual was plus 1.9, subtract the two,
you get 2.1 and add that and you get it.
So I've got - uh - I've got mistake,
that's what I've got. I'll change it
before the shutter opens.

262 17 28 41 CDR I didn't make it. Going to take another

frame. Go - l'm going to go to STANDBY,
for Just this stop. I'ii take another
frame. Won't cost us much. 333.1. Okay,
we'll try it again just as soon as this
thing recycles and resets.

262 17 29 07 CDR We'll go again. Yep.

262 17 29 13 SPT How much time before I c'an continue with

the debriefing here, AI?

CDR Right now, go ahead.

"_ 262 17 29 18 SPT Okay, and that's the near active region 30
over towards the southwest side and -
uh - uh - I did find the boundary both
near active region 30 and further to
the south, although it's not quite as
sharp as some of the other boundaries,
by slewing back and forth it does appear
that the eastern boundary as a whole is
sharper than the western boundary. So
I did use the western boundary for the
pointing. You can get the pointing co-
ordinates, of course, from the telemetry.

262 17 29 h3 SPT And - uh - I did one pointing on the

boundary, as near as I could tell, then
moved to another spot and did - uh -
uh - a second pointing on the boundary.
And - uh - then I wanted a point outside.
Now - uh - the other pictures I cannot
see very clearly at all what the boundary
looks like on the XUV MON. I'm little
less uncertain as to the appropriate roll
angle. After checking up and down several
times, it did look like I probably had
the roll a little bit nonoptimum.
J

Dump Tape 262-08

Page 3 of 6

262 17 30 lh SPT And-so I went beyond the plus and

minus 5 arc seconds for the last two
steps that are called out on the
ATM schedule. So I actually went more
like 20 arc seconds - uh - inside mad
20 arc seconds outside, maybe even more, -
uh - to - uh - make sure the - uh -
XUV slit was either - uh - essentially
all of it in and out of the - uh -
coronal hole - nh - vicinity. And so -
uh - I'd never have been able to do this
without magnesium 10's assistance.
The XUV MON was not adequate in this
particular case, but - uh - using
magnesia 10, I think I managed to get -
uh - just about the data we're looking for.

262 17 30 52 SPT And also - uh - I should note that your

GRATING AUTO SCAN are done from 19hl up
through zero and back to 19hl. So that
I - uh - could use that grating position -
uh - for - uh - hunting for the boundaries.
And I also had to abbreviate the two
GRATING AUTO SCANs into one in order to
get them down after all that searching, -
Uh - and get all that work into one orbit.

262 17 31 lh SPT And that completes the - uh - ATM debrief-

ing from the SPT.

262 17 31 20 CDR Okay, we just opened the shutter on the first

exposure for - uh - S183. Let me tell you
what it is. It's 333.1 and 13.2. I had
333.1 and set 133.1. So I stopped that
exposure_ advanced the film properly for
a few seconds until we - not for a few seconds,
Just for a fraction of a second at
2h frames per second. Went back to time
and now I'm exposing on the star correctly.

262 17 32 50 CDR 183 in process.

262 17 3h 26 CDR The 183 information that I just recorded is

for Wally Teague and other interested
parties. I'll be back in - uh - roughly
5 minutes to - uh - correction, 8 minutes -
to - uh - start the second exposure.

262 17 3_ 40 CDR CDR out.

262 17 _5 22 CDR Okay, this is the CDR with some more

information. I just began - uh - the
sequence on - on - uh - second exposure
of 183. It's a zero zero 940. That's
what I have in. I had 131 zero in the
window and - uh - tilt 30.8. So every-
thing's setting pretty. I turned on
the - uh - sequence start a few moments
ago. And - uh - I'll just stand by while
it - now - it's now shifting. And when
it's off, I'll give you call. Now I
realize that sunset is around 17:55, so -
uh - I'm gonna be - uh - alert that this
is shut down by then.

262 17 4_ 07 CDR CDR out. I'll give you a call when the
next exposure is finished. I'll give you
a mark as it opens, by the way.

262 17 44 21 CDR MARK, just opened.

262 17 54 52 CDR CDR getting ready to terminate the -

uh - S183 exposure early because sunrise
is coming in about 4 seconds. Stand by

the shutter and it's recycling, gentlemen.
That completes 183 ops - uh - we've got
two exposures. Started a little bit late
because I set in the wrong rotation but
I do hope we got good data for you. I
think we did.

262 17 55 17 CDR CDR out. That information goes to

Wally Teague and other interested 183 ob-

262 17 56 ll PLT Okay, space fans, this is Jack on channel A.

The subject is - uh - girth measurements.
This goes to the medical world. I'll read
them - uh - three numbers in each - uh -
part of the - uh - anatomy. The first will
be AI, then 0wen, and then Jack. It'll all
be in centimeters. Neck, at the adams apple,
37.3, 34.9, &0.9. Hips, around the butt at

Tha_ was 104.8. Exhale was - uh -

92.4, 83.4, 97.6.

262 17 57 14 PLT The biceps are measured - uh - in each

arm, with each man, from the elbow at a
point measured from the elbow up. Here's
the left, for Almeasured at a point
14.5 centimeters up from the elbow, was 29.0.
For Owen measured at a point 13.6 up from
the elbow, it was 28.0. For Jack, it was
measured 14.6 up from the elbow; it was
33.0. Right biceps - on A1 measured at
the same distance, 30.0; 0wen, same distance;
29.3; Jack same distance, 33.5.

262 17 58 01 PLT Okay, left leg, one-third up from the knee.

41.0, 37.3, 46.1. Two-thirds up from the
leg - uh - from - uh - the knee was 48.6,
46.8, 55.0. Now - uh - these measurements
up from the knee were taken at the following
points. From the knee Joints, held at the
side of the knee, Al's was measured on his
left leg - uh - 13.46,13 - correction13.6
up. Owen was 13 up. And Jack was 14.3 up.
The - uh - two-thirds distance for the left
leg was - for A1, 27.2, and 0wen was 26 up,
and - uh - Jack was - uh - 28.6 up.

262 17 59 l0 PLT Uh - the right leg, one-third up from the

knee for A1 at 13.3 was 43.2. Owen's was
measured 13.2 up, it was 37.8. Jack's was
measured 14.6 up, it was 47.4. Okay, two-thirds
up from the right knee, A1 was measured at
26.6 and it was 47.9. Jack's was measured at
26.4 up and it was 47.6. That was a mistake.
The last one was for Owen. His was measured
at 2 - 26.4 up and it was 47.6. And Jack's

55.6. Okay, the waist at the navel was
76.3, 72.1, and 83.9.

262 18 00 12 PLT And we hope on these leg and bicep measure-

ments that you'll compare them with the same
distance up from the knee and from the elbow,
respectively, as they were measured on the
ground. And that you will take these points
and - uh - and - uh - log them somewhere so
f we can measure at the same points and compare
after we get back. If you got any questions

about the measurements or where they were

taken, please give us a call. This is for
the biomed people, subject was girth measure-
ment.

262 18 58 02 SPT - -exposure and first took a look at

that bright spot in the northwest quadrants
of 257, right B70, which you got on
telemetry and - uh - did a - uh - little,
about a l-l/2 GRATING AUTO SCAN and
the - uh - partial = stand by.

262 18 58 23 SPT Okay, picking it up again - and a

partial MIRROR AUTO RASTER as well as
a 2 plus 40 exposure, frame 28. Probably
a bit too long, probably should have dropped
to _0 seconds from that - uh - I'll
catch it on the next one. And then after
that, I took another look at another
birght spot over at up ll3, and right 622.
Had a particularly good - uh - contrast ratio
in - uh - oxygen 6, it was also - uh - uh -
either one or two - one of the first or
second of these bright spots appeared to be
a double. I'm not quite sur which, but
I expect you can tell from your data.
Perhaps both of them did - uh - certainly
some - several of these bright spots are
in paris and - uh - usually there will be
one or the other that's the brightest.
And as I indicate here, I have the brightest
of the two.

262 18 59 19 SPT And did a 40-second exposure for XUV in

the GRATING AUTO SCAN and a partial RASTER
for step 5. Uh - following that, I went
over to - uh - easlimb and - uh - uh - took
data in the general - uh - manner of J0P 1E.
No go on item 10. Uh - report that I was
early - uh - turned out to be - uh - up
990 and right 55. And so you can see, I was
not perpendicular to the rim precisely.
Uh - the target looked a - sort of cluster
of spicules. After I had been taking data
for about l0 minutes the ground reported
that there had been a surge on the eastlimb
at that location. So I suspect it was a
remnant of the surge. And - uh - it made a
very nice pictural-like signature in H-alpha
_-_ Dump Tape 262-09
Page 2 of i_

and'so I rolled the XUV slit along that

and pointed about 7 arc seconds off
the limb, the end of the slit was about
7 arc seconds - uh - off the limb.

262 19 00 42 SPT I went about 3 steps off for SO55 and

did a _RROR LINE SCAN for them and
a 5-minute exposure for the XUV. I hope
that'll turn out to be of interest.
Perhaps considerable interest. And also took
short segments of _RROR LINE SCAN in other
step positions around the one I - uh - did
most of the work in. And - uh - then in
the closing moments of the orbit I also
went back to - uh- Sun center and - uh -
did a quick fast scan for S052 and also
had the S055 detectors in MIRROR LINE
SCAN all enabled, grating zero, for J0P 7
information. We do get JOP 7, incidentally,
at both the beginning and the end of
the last orbit.

262 19 01 34 SPT And that concludes the debriefing for

the ATM guys and planners from the SPT.

262 22 05 hl PLT Okay, space fans, this is Jack on channel A.

The subject tonight is MI31, spacial
localization. I got a hunch of readings
here that you'd been waiting for. And
I'm going to debrief my run first.
Question number i: Describe the degree
of difficulty relative to ground
base trials in making orientation
Judgement. I don't think the answer
to man_ of these questions have changed
at all for me over the - uh - time
wefve been up here. The - uh - one
thing that changes teh - the degree
of difficulty somewhat is the - uh -
tightening of the restraint strap.
Teh better the seat of the pants
feeling you can give yourself the -
uh -ithe - uh - restrai_ strap,
why,!the easier it becomes to make
proper adjustments. And, I think if
you were to let that loose altogether,
you Won't know which way was up.
So there's - uh - about the same
degree of difficulty, maybe a little
more difficulty up here in making
that judgment. Uh - hut it's depending
upon the tightness of the seat belt.

262 22 07 l0 PLT Question: Were there any conflicts

hetween sensory cues? Uh - the
answer is no. I was - uh - I had
no - uh - conflicts between sensory
cues. Although I - uh - think my
sensory cues were not quite as good
as they were on th ground. Uh - again,
teh seat of the pants feeling is the -
uh - the entry here hut I don't they
were any conflicts. Did you at any
time experience a positive sense of the
upright? Well_ I think - uh - the fact
that I was fastended to theis chair
with a seat belt. If I had not been
/P

Dump Tape 262-10

Page 2 of 4

fastened clair - to the chair witha

seatbelt or had been floating, I
would not know what the upright was.
And the upright is defined as that
which you visually see as the upright
in one-g here. Were judgements
influenced y other cues. Teh answer
is no; not to my knowledge. Did the
line target appear stable and under
you completed Control during the _et-
ting? Yes. That's about it.

262 22 08 27 PLT Okay, now what I'm going to do is I'm

going to - uh - give the - uh -

The subject is general message 5527 Alfa,
S063 photos. I took six photos, three of them
on the S - STS number 4, and three of
them on the STS number 3 window. The
$4 window was taken at 08:32. It was
taken in the direction you specified,
and the vlewfinder was toward panel 216.
The second picture was taken at 08:35;
the viewfinder orientation was the
same; it was toward panel 216,
the direction that you specified. Photo
number 3 was taking - taken at 08:37,
the viewfinder was toward the minus -X
axis, the direction that you indicated. .J

263 09 08 31 PLT $3 window; the fourth picture was taken

at 08:40; the viewfinder was toward the
mol sieve B, in the direction that you
indicated. Picture number 5 was taken at
08:41; the viewfinder was also toward mol
sieve B, the direction that you specified.
Photo number 6 was taken at 08:43; the f
- viewfinderwas toward the minus -X axis,
the direction that you specified.

263 09 08 56 PLT The only problem I encountered in taking

these photos was this: You were requesting
a 30-degree inclination to the window.
That was - uh - done by guesswork only
and - uh - done as best as I can - could
estimatedit and I doubt that it's
precisely 30 degrees. If you need it _
precisely 30 degrees, you better tell
me how to do it. And - uh - that - uh -
completes the pictures. I imagine this

Wally Teague among others. Thank you
very much.

.263 12 01 54 PLT Hello, space fans, this is Jack on channel A.

The subject is debriefing the last A_4 run
which began at 11:08. I did the shopping list •
item 17, the fast scan at - uh - for
h3 seconds. Roll, minus 4200. I did a - uh -
auto raster - uh - on active region 27. Did .f
JOP 2 Fox, building block i0 with auto raster
only. Then I went on and did the - uh -
buildingblock 27 - uh - steppingfrom 5485 "-
up to plus 18. I got started a little bit _
late on that - uh - so I had to cut some of
the - uh - the - uh - mirror line scans - L
uh - down to - llh - h5 seconds minimum - ._ _
uh - and - uh - most of them were - uh ....
about 50 seconds - uh - with the first ons -"
about a minute.

263 12 02 42 PLT So - uh - 45 seconds was the shortest. Uh - '[_

channel A. The subject is the diffusion
experiment, and it turns out that - uh -
half hour ago when we put the day - the
tea in the top of our little test tube
here, it did not diffuse into the top
swab at the top and then on down into
the medium, which is water, but rather
it - uh - it stayed where it was. So,
what I am going to do now, taking pic-
tures also, is to get this back into
the syringe - somehow - then inject
down alongside the swab. q

263 13 2h 00 PLT Now we got most of it back. Now we'll

try it again; this time I'll run the
needle down alongside the swab if I
can. And, smoothly, while taking photo-
graphs here - inject it into the - uh -
" swab itself, according to the ... _-
There, we're gettin a little. Oops! [-_
There. Now, we're also gettin lots of
little air bubbles down there in the water,
gas bubbles of some sort. -- ..,

263 13 25 09 PLT Now the swab itself is fairly well satu- U_

rated with this tea.

263 13 26 03 PLT Well, I may have goofed it up; I may have _u

to start over again here. But we'll . L
watch this for a while. Some of the __
tea which I injected - uh - straight
down alongside of the swab has got down ©
into the - got do_n into the - uh - -
medium ... Maybe a smarter idea would
be to take the swab and saturate it with
tea. And - uh - then stick it in there -
before the experiment - before - when you
start the experiment.

263 13 26 45 PLT But we'll come back and take a look

at this after a while, and if necessary,
that's what we'll do_

263 13 31 57 SPT This is the SPT on channel A, deb_i_{ing

the ATM pass which is Just now being
completed. Uh - it's going to end here
about - uh - 13:35. To begin with, I
picked up the - uh - a MIRROR AUTO
RASTER in JOP 2F that there was not time
to complete on the last orbit. So I
did that MIRROR AUTO RASTER at the same
pointing position so - uh - I hope that
will give you the information to complete
the work on J0P 2F. Then picked up JOP 6
and did that as scheduled. This third JOP c:
has cost me a bit of time that I would
otherwise had wanted to spend on JOP IE.
I - uh - I went to the north pole region
and thought I had a faint bright spot and
I rolled and pointed to where - a position
above that location. However, about the
end that orbit, here, I see that there's
reallyno brightspotthere- uh - visible.

263 13 32 h6 SPT So essentially all I have done is to go

to the northern cap region. And - uh - _:
found a convenient location and - uh -
set my pointers for J0P IE perpendicular
to the limb. And we are 20 are seconds
off the limb _-ith the end of the XUV slit
and uh - 55 has been doing MIRROR LINE '"
v.
SCANS, I gave them their MAR at the end
instead of the beginning of the - uh -
work. And - uh - XUV is getting a 20 minute [_
instead of a 26-minuteexposure here at r,
the end. Uh - that was necessitated }(
because of the time I spent trying to
: find the appropriate location and initiate
MIRROR AUTO RASTER on JOP 6 at the begin-
ning. So - uh - that's the way the orbit
has gone and - uh - I don't think there is
any other comments to be made.

(aarbZe)
263 15 O_ 30 SPT This is the SPT on channel a debriefing
the ATM pass scheduled tO finish here
in a couple of minutes about 15:08.
Uh - we did do an item 17 at the beginning
of the orbit. Uh - we also did a JOP 7
preceeding that at sunrise as well as
we're finishing up with another JOP ...
zero at the end of this orbit. So you
should have both sunrise sunset - uh -
station information.

263 15 04 56 SPT Now tucked in between, I believe is a

pretty goo_ - uh - item 19. Over on
the east limb there is a lot of - uh -
_ very bright XUV - uh - MON activity,as
observed on the XUV MON. I believe that
as I said on that downlink - uh - the -
uh - the origin is probably on the - uh -
back side of the limb. The ... you read
now now is actually on the front side,
and the active region, I believe, number
34. The number i s a bit unclear with
2 or 3 active regions right in there now.
But it's the northermost of those that
is noW visible on the disk, and it's -
uh - nearly under the H-alpha 1 crosshair,
I believe, and that's what you're calling
the active region 3_?

263 15 05 36 SPT I believe that's responsible for most of the

active seen in the lower corona. And -
uh - we should have a very nice sequence
of - uh - uh - spectra from 82B and -
uh - 55 riEht out through this bright
region. Uh - so let me tell you what's
been done on each of the instruments.
 Dump Tape 263-05

263 15 05 55 SPT On S056 two exposures are slightly - uh -

mistimed. Uh - on the filter 3 1 gave
you 13 minutes, on filter 4 1 gave you
9_1 minutes, and on filter 5 filnally got
it right with 12 minutes. So - uh -
they're a precise number of minutes -
uh - but they ere plus or minus I as
I've indicated from what you had on the -
uh - shopping list pad. 82B has got
all of their exposures exactly as they're
on the pad with the exception of the
last 5-minute exposure at 20 are seconds.

263 15 06 26 SPT I did not have time to get that one in above
the appoiknted kilometers intended so -
uh - uh - elected to - uh - uh - intended,
so - uh - uh = elected to - uh _ uh -
overlook to omit it entirely. I
finished the 10-minute exposure with Just
about exactly - uh - 5 minutes re_ining,
_nd thought that was too tight to give
you your f%111 information on the long
wave length - uh - in that position. And
S055 got all of their's - uh - exactly
as planned. Uh - the pointing was about -
uh - 4 or 5 arc seconds inside the limb,
and so I give you your grating auto scan s -
uh - with the column positions of 31, 29,
and 27. And completed that with a mirror
auot, raster, and that's a mirror line
scan - uh - on line 9 - uh - til the -
uh - sunset.

263 15 07 13 SPT So that - uh - should be useful for

getting - uh - some information - uh -
about the - uh - ... that brightly as
well as the extinction information for
J0P 7.

263 15 07 24 SPT And that completed the activities - uh -

for the last orbit. This message, of course,
goes to the ATM PIS and planners from

263 15 45 13 PLT Okay, space fans, this is Jack on

channel A again. The subject is - uh -
the idffusion experiment. And - uh - we
reinitiated it again in a different
manner this time. Our original
problem was that we - uh - I'm taking some
photos. I'll stop it now. Our original
problem was that - uh - when we put
the - uh - water in, and then the - uh -
swab on top of it, and then put the -
uh - tea on top of that, the tea would
not go throug the swab.

263 15 45 47 PLT So it could ever reach the water to diffuse

into it. So what I've done is I've t_ken
the swab and - uh - saturated it with
tea, stuck it in on water and, as best
I could - uh - inserted it in there without
stsa_ting any diffusion. I made a -
uh - I got the air bubble out out that
forms below the swab when you put it ou t-
when you put it in, and - uh - so there's
a good interface between the citton swab
and the tea ... or the - in the water.

263 15 46 28 PLT The - uh - swab is not completely soaked

with the tea; you can see some areas
in it that are kind of mottled with tea
and white. Uh - and then there is a
slight 8mount of diffusion in it - uh -
that I introdueced - uh - when enter -
when putting the swab in, so - uh - we'll
have to start from that point.

263 15 46 49 PLT You can hardly see it though; I can

hardly see it with my naked eye, only
in the most tense light can you rearely
see a slight coloration change. But
I've taken some photos - uh - and -
uh - perhaps we'll have better lucky
this time - ih - getting the - uh -
tea to diffuse into the - uh - water.
Uh - I'll come back after a while and
- %Lh - check it out and see if
anything is going on.

263 15 h7 15 PLT At the moment you can't visibly see

anything, but - uh - and if you could
it would be too fast to process anyway.
The only other suggestion I might
have that - uh - we Just forget about the
cotton next time and introduce the - uh -
some tea right at the ... that the
water makes, and - _uh - see what happpens.
Uh - but we %-ii1 - uh - try it this
way for a while and take a few pictures.
If it doesn't work - uh - by tonight
well, we'll think of a different way.

263 15 47 45 FLT So that concludes the - uh - the

debrief at the moment for - uh - the
diffusion experiment. And I'll come
back and look at it after a while and -
tth - let you know how it's coming ou.t

- A debriefingthe last ATM run. The one
that's - uh - currently about to go into
sunset that is. That's the - uh - one
startedat 17:18. Got the - uh -
- JOP 6 in both the roll of zero and roll of
minus 4200. Same time - uh - I was at
minus 4200, I got the uh f1_ter 3
for S056. That's 8 minutes LONG. I had
a little time left over after that so -
uh - what I didi was go to - uh - find
" the hottestspot in the activeregion - C
h - must be 35. Thre'stwo of 'em ",_
looks like they're close together there,
or it's one big one and - uh - looks liek maybe .__
thatyou.have 'em designated as 234, ;L"
B5- At any rate, I bel_eve this must U_
_. be -_uh - 35. And I - uh - found the hottest
spot_there and - uh - grating position .-
- uh - 1915 when ... It's up around
4800seomewhere.
O
"- 263 18 12 25 PLT And - uh - di a GRATING AUTO SCAN from -;
...... 1915on aroundto zero. From 1950 on _:
" aroundto zero,in detectors
i and2. ..
And - uh - that left me pointed at pretty t_
good position. I also did an AUTO MIRROR
RASTER which is in progress now, - uh - 'n
through line 25. That will cover active -"
region - uh - 34 and 35 and - uh - 7_
" with a littlebit of luck if - uh - _.
doesn't - uh - go into sunset too soon, C
why - uh - we're going to get - uh - some _-
data on active region - uh - now that must --

263 18 13 12 PLT Although it looks a little bit too - uh -

"" located - uh - around towards 250 to be
one that - uh - 231. Anyways there'a a
bright plage area at - uh - about - uh -
250 to be one that - uh - 231. Anyway
there's a bright plage area at - uh -

uh - I assume that - uh - that's on

active region that's - uh - designated.
At any rate - uh - my auto raster in
that whole area which just went into
effective at sunset at about line 35.

263 18 13 4h pLT So - uh - I don't know if we'll get that

inthere or not, but I'll keep rastering -
uh - til sunset and perhaps you can use
that data.

263 18 13 52 PLT I made my - uh - daily - uh - scans of y

the - uh - corona. And - uh - fact - --
matter of fact it might have been my - ._
uh - ... this time, because I missed
yesterday's it turns out. But at ny
rate - uh - apparetnlyyesterday,we had
a - uh - sugnificant change in the -
.... uh - the location of some of the streamers
on - uh - one. A couple missing - uh - _'
which - uh - were there - uh - couple _T
days ago. There's a lot of enhanced - -

was - uh - apparently- uh - caused
by the active regions - uh - that had --
Just come around and - uh = they
have changed the - uh - the organization over '"
there to some degree. Uh - doesn't look -_
too much different on the west limb.
We still got a nice chamber that's -
,. uh - west northwest. And - uh - couple
C:
of 'em or other - uh - brightened areas.
But - uh - not predominant
_- streamers otherthanthatone. Uh - in ."
fact you get to the east llmb, it appears
that - uh - three of our major chmabers
that we had a couple of days have given
way to some - uh - brightened area.
And - uh - one - uh - very strong - uh -
chamber at the - uh - east-southeast side.

263 18 15 21 PLT However, I've been watching the coronagraphs

- uh - for most of the orbit - uh - this time
 Dump Tape 263-06
Page 3 of 5

.................. and I d{dagit_-see-any--Z--tfin-_-{r_sients -

uh - but will continue looking for them.
So, all in all, it's pretty - uh - quite
- uh - set up here. Doesn't seem there's
much of anything unusual to report.
And - uh -

263 18 15 41 PLT I'll sign off for now and I'll pick you
up again in about half an hour.

263 18 20 ii PLT Okay, space fans_ this is Jack on channel A.

The subject again is the diffusion experiment.
Now this is the - uh - thrird shot we're
going to make at getting this goin and -
uh - we've fallen back now to - uh - ._
the original technique. Decided to be a
littlemore patient. We have - uh -
: our tube cleanedout and the stopper
installed, which is a fr sh one. It is
": presently soaded with water, and it L-
has a good interface between the - uh -
fiber stopper and te water. I've gotten
all the - uh - bubble out of the -
that had to pass between the - uh - at
the interface between the - uh - fiber k_
stopper and the water. It takes alittle k
bit of - uh - doing, but not bad. Have
to Just make sure when you force that '_
little fiber stopper down in there that -_
you allow room for some air to escape :_-
aroundand upwards.a ,_

263 18 21 16 PLT I also have - uh - got a new shot of tea ,C

here. One thing I've done this time, is Lq
I've- uh - the tea frothed up a lot. -
And what I've done is to centrifuge it kind
of with my arm, shake it to the bottom
of the tube, so that the bubbles and the
froth can then go to the top. We've got
some pretty - uh - concentrated tea
now, that will go into the - uh - to the
tube. so I'll palce this - uh - tube
between the - uh - on the tape, between
the - uh - oll and the timer, and we'll
reinject the - uh - tea into the
into the top of the - uh - fiber stopper,

• ',,- - '2
 Dump Tape 263-06
page
of5 i

making sure that we don't have any air

between the tea and the fiber stopper so
it will diffuse properly through it.
There are several things about diffusion,
probably that I don't know, but I do
know that it is gravity dependent, and
I also know that it's temperature dependent.
And it's dependent upon the two agents
which are diffusing, namely, in this case,
the water and the tea. And molecular size
being the important qumntity.

263 18 22 56 PLT I'm sure there are a couple of other factors

that are related to - to the diffusion
coefficient.

263 18 23 04 PLT But one Of the terms of the equation is

_. gone.! That's gravity. The purpose of
course, is to see how diffusiontakes
• plac@ in the absence of gravity. I'm U"
now sturring the rest of this tea into ,_
the - uh - water solution. The water .5
that formed around the top of fiber --
stopper is making very good contact. .7
Guess about enough tea. Don't want to --
put all the froth inthere. And we're ""
taking pictures of this. And we're just
going to let the clock run - uh - and come '_
back later and see what happens. Now
we have about an inch - I'd say of tea, _I
maybe a little less about 7/8 of a inch
of tea setting [sic] on top of the fiber
0
stopper.

" 263 18 24 28 PLT On the bottom I have about - uh - 4 inches -_

of water, which has - uh - started to
form some very minute bubbles in it, as
water does when it sits a long tim.e
And - uh - above that we have the fiber
stopper which is - uh - saturated with
water at this time. And it is about a
half an inch in length and then about -
sitting on top of that about - uh -
7/8 of an inch of tea, whie is the - the
place a little sloppy - but it's make -

, t
 DumpTape263-06 •

...........................making very good contact with the - uh -

fiber stopper. So the ... of the course
and the ... of the force is steadying
the effect of bravity on the dissusion
process of two liquids in this case. To
see how diffusion takes place in the
absence of gravity. So with that - uh -
I'll sign off and the time is now
18 minutes 25 on day 263. And we'll Just
let that sit and - uh - periodically come
back and take a few frames of it, and -
" uh -see if we ena get sometime lapse C
photography on the diffussion process. _:

263 18 25 52 PLT Thank you very much for listening and we'll ._

channel A .... at about 22:65. Uh -
did the Sun - centerd work on JOP 6,
did the TV down-link and then went over
to the east limb and - uh - there was
one particularly bright spot on the
new active region as you come around the
east limb. So I did the grating auto
scan and a partial mirror auto raster
to - uh - get a little information on this
for S055. Nobody else was running at
this time of course. Uh - then I - uh -
took the grating to 1941, magnesium 10
and hunted for - uh - the coronal hole
which appeared on the XUV MON - uh -
just south of this active region on the
east limb. As it turns out - uh -
. magnesiumi0 showedno hole, I don't know
whether or not - uh - well, I just don't
know what they explanation for that is. _
So I:- uh - then did a quick look for
another eoroanl hole over on the - uh -
uh - southwest section. The one that I
had worked on - uh - excuse me. Stand by. --

263 23 06 59 SPT Okay, SPT completion on comments to the

coronal holes, both on the west and the _"
older ones_ excuse me, both near the __
east limb and also in the - uh - southwest
quardrant where I worked before and t_
h_

simply could find very little signature

in either H-alpha or - uh - on the XUV
MON. I was hoping to do a grating scan -
uh - auto scan both inside and outside the
coronal hole, to - uh - provide a little
more closely spaced data then i - uh -
managed to get for you the last time.
But - uh - no luck on that as I was a

those concerned with urine measurements.
This morning when it came time to - uh -
wave a - uh - measurement urine bag, I
opened the drawer and found that I
had a urine leak. I tried to establish
exactly why it leaked. And it looked
like perps the - uh - little rubber
cup that fits over the - uh - ... of
the centrifuge was not fully on, although
it looked like it was on.

264 09 23 43 CDR It looked like, it also looked like it

concieivably could have been partially
not over the bump, the wide part of that
thing. At any rate,- -

SPT Say,
AI?

CDR - - [I had no leak. My estimate of the leak

would be that it was about two-thirds the volume
of the sample bag, if I took a sample
bag and poured all the urine in there.
Maybe the leak -- __

SPT Say, A1, I think I overestimated on that.

CDR Would be ... 2 of the urine. But

you need to add to that about - uh - -
the amount I said of the sample bag _:
urine, to it. That would be my best guess.

26_ i1--i-h34 SPT ......SPT on channel A,_with a note ......

to - uh -'Ed Gibson and Bob Parker.
I wanted to - uh - let you know
ahead of time what I'm doing with
the science kit. It's a little -
uh - black box here with - uh - made
out of Mozite. I'm putting it all
up in - uh - locker 908, which
is the one in your sleep compartment_
Ed, unless the - u_h- deactivation
• checklisthas me put it somewhere
else, but I think that's where its
supposed to go. Uh - included in it
are all the things that came down
in it, the pendulum, and the pit balls,
which aren't going to be of any use,
and so on.

264 ii 13 39 SPT Also_ the little tiny magnifying

glas_ that I used to look at the _' .
fish, also the little chain, and -
uh -_the - uh - uh - long - uh -
well it's a long brass chain and a
long - uh - chain like those on a -
uh - washtub - uh - or a sink stopper.
And - uh - also a couple of larger
[ magnets that were apparentlyput in
_ the wardroomfor use as sort of
paperweight types. So these - uh -
large made - uh - magnets are the
one I used in some of the magnetic
demonstrations, and they're pretty
good.

264 Ii lh i0 SPT So all that stuff I'ii put up

there in locker 908, or wherever
the deactivation checklist calls for
it to go. And there's one other thing
that - uh - the two of you might be
considering before we get back is a
possible useful science demonstration
on the next flight. And that would be
to demonstrate some of these - uh -
very - uh - relatively small forces like the - uh -
/_ Dump Tape 264-0h •
Page 2 of 4

.................... paradynamic effect,the smaller of "

the gravity gradient torques.

26_ ll 14 34 SPT But you can't do it out in the open

because of air current. I'd suggest,
instead, one of the larger food
lockers up - uh - on the - uh - dome
area from the experiment level. Now -
uh - if a door - wherever the door
i can be taken off, and then a clear door
put over, either a little plastic
sheet or something llke that, and
a ... for a DACs camera to be
installed in front of that. And
then have a sequencer so you can take
say one frame every - uh - one frame
a second or so, or even one frame every
5 or lO seconds.

26h ll 15 07 SPT Then you could see the motions of -

uh - some of these - uh - motions
produced by some of these small forces.
" And we don't have a sequencerlike
that on board. But I can't imagine
that in 6 weeks,one can'tbe found
or built, someplace. And I'd suggest
!_i a couple of frame rates, but - uh -
on the order of one frame a second - uh -
seems to be about right. And then
you can get those DACs set up there,
and - uh - for ex_nple - uh - turn
some - uh - fruit cans, butterscotch
cans, or something like that -
loose inside - two or three of 'em,
and watch them move from side to side
around through the locker.

26h II 15 h2 SPT Now, I've done a similar experiment

like that with the little trash
locker in the wardroom compartment,
near - uh - where I eat. And you
can see the cans move around. I
[_ didn't do it long enough to actually -
uh - plot - uh - trajectories to the
function of our orbital position. And -
uh - the cans also tend to sort of
 DumpTape264-O4
Page
3 of4

get stuck to the wall sometimes.

But still - uh - if you - uh -
had some either cans or balls that
you could turn loose in there and -
uh - photograph from time to time
with a sequencer - not manually,
you don't have time for that - so, a
sequencer to do it automatically.

264 ii 16 13 SPT Then I think this might make a very

useful demonstration. First of all,
there's the orbital mechanics, on how
a ball moves of independent trajectory
when it's - uh - uh - displaced from
the center of gravity of the workshop.
And then, secondly, you might be able
to set up a little - uh - uh - uh -
dump valve or rod to demonstrate the
gravity gradient torques. I'm not
sure that that can be done or not, but
it might be worth a try.

264 ii 16 36 SPT And so, that'd be one new thing

that I would suggest that - uh -
- you all consider,and - uh - try
to implement with - uh - some - uh -
_ relatively simple additions. And - uh -
the rest of this - uh - uh - science
kit I'll leave where I told you before.
So this information goes to Dr.
Edward Gibson, Dr. Robert Parker, and
the Astronaut Office from the SPT.

264 ii 16 55 SPT Out.

264 ii 24 20 SPT Okay, this is the SPT on channel A,

264 12 21 21 PLT Okay, space fans, this-is Jack On channel A.- The
subject is the - ice cube melting experiment. I
- uh - weighed the ice cube right cylinder after
taking it out of the freezer thimorning. It
had the - uh - the outside
and it had the - uh - cap near the end or the
bottom, but I - uh - cut off the - uh - the top
that sits over the top on the string so it was
- uh -minus - uh - the snap - on cap and the
string and it also had one in it. Here
is got 5 weights on it ... 2.03198, 2.03229,
• 2.03162, 2.03167, 2.03166 and - uh - measures
the air velocity in the vicinity of the experiment
and it's zero. And - uh - I - uh - are negligible,
are measurable at any rate. And - uh - also -
the temperature - uh - I have the _ thermometer
mounted on the experiment so - uh - it's right
there in plain view of the camera so - uh -
shouldn't be any problem - uh - knowing what the
temperaturein there every time we take piet1_res.

264 12 22 42 PLT Every five minutes I've been - as much as I could

- I've been •taking 5 frames so - uh - it's been
a processof help now. As far a I can make of the
ice cube itself was homogeneous mass of water
when I I put it in the freezer, the - uh - top -
uh - around the - uh - place where you take the
pills out, to use it as a pill container, and a
little empty space the top was just gonna get it
all filled up with water. I shook it to the point
where it didn't have anybubbles to speak of in
the solid mass so it ought to - uh - melt then
homogeneously. _..

264 12 23 20 PLT I notice - that you would expect that upon freezing
it had expanded a little bit mud - uh - had made
little cracks in itself and had bulged out the
plastic container a little bit.

264 12 23 32 PLT I took it out and just held it in my hand for a

few seconds and then it split right out. So - uh -
that's the status on the melting experiment at
the time. And - uh - I'll continue taking
pictures of it in the event ... when it's com-
pletely melted to - uh - put an end to it, to - uh -
record the diffusion of soak through the water

ball that's left rand - Uh _ ring it up So that

it will seem well done, touch anything - the
water globule will not touch anything; it will
be completely suspended on the - uh - swab when
it's melted fully.

264 12 24 14 PLT Okay, this is the end of the message on the melting
experiment.

264 12 57 56 SPT SPT on channel A - uh - debriefing - uh - the

ATMFacts just now completed at about 12:57. -Uh -
Look we Jumped 7 data on both the beginning and
end of this orbit, to do the Nu_. update .... , I
guess, well it maybe for flow Ynformation. And
in all the ... scheduled activities increased the
long exposure list ... S052 framed up with frame 295.
Uh - then went - uh - to the observing period, went
over and took a look first at active region 34,
a partial mirror auto raster if I recall correctly
and then Active region 36 - uh it looks like it
might be beginning to have - uh - small subsequent
activity and there was an H-alpha brightening and
there might have been a small increase in x-rays.
Uh - the H-alpha signature - uh - or a - uh - H-alpha
picture looks almost like a horseshoe print of
little bright points. It's a very consolate and
neutral line and the string of light points follows
it all the way around ... after an arch about

channel A yet, are you?

26h 13 02 53 SPT Okay, this is theSPT, on channel A picking

up with that debriefing that - uh - got
cut off a minute ago - uh - on the
recorder dump. Debriefing the pass which
Just ended about _3:00 Zulu. Look for
J0P 7 - uh - extinctiondata on both the
beginning and the end of - of the orbit.
The - uh - planned items on the ATM
schedule went off as specified, including
the h-minute exposure for 52, frame number
295. After that, we took a look at active
region 34. And if I remember correctly,
did a partial MIRRO, AUTO RASTER. And
then active region 36 looked like it
might be the beginning of a - uh - a
small - uh - flare activity. So I went
over there - uh - to - uh - the brightest
region of the H-alpha pictures and the
H-alpha picture is worth describing
incidentally. Uh -

264 13 03 48 SPT The neutral line is very convoluted - uh -

_- very - uh - sinewy [sic] and there was a
sort of horseshoe-shaped ring of bright
points following - uh - one of the arches
of the neutral line. And these were all
varying in intensity and the XUV signature
was also very fluxuating somewhat as -
uh - co_d be told by looking at the
oxygen 6 detector - uh - counter. So -
uh - did do a GRATING AUTO SCAN on the
brightest points and then - uh - a MIRROR
LINE SCAN for 15 or 20 minutes followed
by a partial MIRROR, AUTO RASTER.
We also picked up som LONG EXPOSURE for
S056, a 9-minute exposure on filter 3 and
a 5-minute exposure on FILTER h. And then
I broke your ground rul a little bi ,
Jim, and did take one PATTROL SHORT while
we were pointed at this - uh - uh - active
region 36 because it looked particularly
 Dump Tape 26h-06
Page 2 of 26

........................ interesting andthought it wouldn't hurt

to try it once there and - uh - uh - of
your filter drive mechanism if it hung up,
I was gonna quiet. But it cycled right

is it - I don't know it looks slmost
like a - a whisker on your chin that's
been there about a - about a day. And
that's all I can see on there and I -
But I've dusted everything that - L_h -
that I - uh - just dusted around in

and we'll just have tosee what happens,
I guess.

out there occasionally.

265 12 57 16 CDR By the way on H-alpha 2 door, it seemed

to work smoothly. I did notice that
on the top of the ramp there were slight
scuff marks. Now 82B's ramps also have
slight scuff marks. So maybe that's not
important. And, of course, I cannot see
under the ramps, so I don't know what's
going on there.

He's working on it right this
minute.

PLT I think you got it, A1. There's

nothing there anymore where this -
where it was.

CDR Is it nice and uniform all the way

around?

PLT It looks like it to me, yeah. There's

a little more brightening on one side
than the other, but I think we've had
• thatall along.

CDR Yeah, yeah, that's been - uh - standard.

265 12 58 16 PLT Uh - where the - uh - little piece of

stuff was - uh - it's a little darker

like it graduates slowly from bright-
ening to din_ning to brightening again.

SPT Okay - -

265 12 58 47 CDR I'll tell you what, though, when I

look down inside there, Story, I can
see a few little particles kind of
floating around down in there and
they're - they're not the size of
paint chips or anything like that.
They're just like, like I say, a
bunch of little whiskers, maybe four
or five of them, floating around
down in there, and I wouldn't be sur-
prised to see one of them in just a
little while land up and - uh - do
the same thing again, because there
doesn't appear to be any reason
they - they wouldn't. Maybe we can
wait about 5 minutes and see if they
don't drift out.

265 12 59 19 PLT You might as well because I got to do

a thing - uh - on the Experiments
Checklist here.

it'll float out.

here - uh - where the - uh - particle
was before we've got a nice - uh -
smooth - uh - rim on the occulting

a little bit - uh - uh - somebody's

opposite side from where the particle
was, there's a brightening there, and
there alwayshas been. On the place
where the particle was, _hy, it's a
little darker but it's not - uh - not
due to the particle anymore. It's
_ Justdue to pointing.

CC Okay, Jack. And - uh - in reference

to Al's comments, we've seen those
particles floating around in there on
previous EVAs.

PLT You're moving.

265 13 O0 39 CDR I'm not moving much.

265 18 25 h2 PLT Okay, space fans, this is Jack

on channel A. The subject to-
night is - uh - EREP deactivation
from the - uh - Earth resources
folks. This is a response to
message 5726 Alfa 1. We got
everything - uh - unloaded and
cleaned up now. And - uh -
got the $191 filter stowed.
And I went through the inspec-
tion as you requested on the
front of each S190 camera
station with a flashlight.
Here's the report. First,
relative contamination between
stations: I would say -
uh - roughly that - uh - station 4,
5, and 6 are the worst, and
are about equal. Station 2 is
the least, and 1 and B are in-
between and they're about equal
to each other. Can floating
particles be detected or are they
isolated to surfaus? There are
no floating particles. They are
all isolated to the surfaces or
a surface.

265 18 26 50 PLT That surface is not the outer lens.

That surface appears to be some-
where on the inner lenses.
Do the particles appear metallic
or more of a dust or powder?
The particles appear to be
metallic because they glint
when you flash a light on 'em.
Okay. They are, however, in
size about the size of dust,
dust - dust size specks or the
size of small nail filings.
There are a few larger ones about
the size of a grain of pepper.
They - uh - appear to be - uh -
about the - uh - covering of the
light coat of dust or lightly -
they give a lightly pepper or
_'_ Dump Tape 265-12
Page 2 of 5

central appearance. They're

more evident with a bleak light
rather th_n direct light. They
appear to be fixed to the lens,
not floating as I said before.
Okay. And - uh - slash step num-
ber 5 so I manually rotated the
shutter drive system and inspected
_ll the lower sheet - the low
sheed shutter disc, looking for -
uh - particle tracks of which
I didn't see any. Or for indica-
tions of rubbins on a fixed
object of which I saw several.

265 18 28 29 PLT Now all of it - almost ell of

the shutters have some random
scratches or markings on 'em
that appear to have been made
before installation. They all
also have some rotary type
markings which I call tangential
markings and - uh - to varying
degrees and I'll discuss that
now. _The tangential markings
are most predominant close to
the center of rotation which
cannot be seen through the lens.
The tangential markings or
circular markings, whichever you
wish to call them appear to
start a_out one-eight of an inch
from the edge of the lens. The
second mark, and I mention three
markings in most cases.

265 18 29 26 PLT The first mark starts about one-

eighth of an inch from the edge
of the lens closest to the center
of rotation. The next mark is
about a half inch from the edge
of the limb and a third mark is
about seven-eighths of an inch
from the edge of the lens. %hey
are irregular at length and
width. They do not make a
complete circle on the disc. They
are intermittent. They are about -
Dump Tape 265-12
Page 3 of 5

generally about pencil width

but sometimes wider and - uh -
let me ts/k about disc over -
disc number 1 first. It has these
markings and they're about pencil
_idth. Number _ disc, I really
can't detect any, not to any the -
not to any real degree. Number 3
disc is about llke mnmber I. That
is, it has irregular - it has
markings irregular in length and
width, but they're about tinsel
_idth. And the longest one on
these may be an inch and a half
long then it'll skip a little bit
then another quarter of an inch.
So that the max length w_ll be
about 3 total inches to in
circumferentls! distance.

265 18 31 Oh PLT And as I said before it's not

a continous scar or mark all
the way around the disc. Number h
has about the ssme distances
between markings as number i, 2 -
as number 1 does. But there's
not pencil likes. They're wider.
And they' re more of a serape
than a scratch. There's also one in
the center of the lens in this
case which doesn't appear on the
other disc. And it's quite a
long one. I'd say it's about h to
5 inches long and probably about
three-sixteenths of an inch wide.

265 18 31 51 PLT Okay, and number 5 and number -

_h - appear to have about the
ssme markings as number h does
except for the long ones in the
center of the lens. That is,
their markings appear to be more
scrape than they do pencil wide
scratches• And it's also inter-
esting to note that numbers 4, 5,
and 6 which have the wider
markings also have more contamina-
tion on the lens. Number 2 which
does not have any markings, except
.t

Dump Tape 265-12

?age h of 5

appreciably has very little

contsmination on the lens.
Numbers 1 and 3, which sre
both between 2 and 3 worst ones
namely, 4_ 5_ and 6_ numbers
1 and 3 have - uh - sort of
intermediate markings. So,
that kind of concludes the
inspection of the - uh - 105
the _ uh ~ 190 .,. and both
these shutter discs and that
may be some - uh - rather defini-
tive information as to where the
uh - contamination is coming
from.

265 18 33 05 PLT I replaced the desicants and -

uh - I have that set being baked
out at the moment. I have one
other set which has been baked
out and seal and it's located in
MI30. When the SL3 crew gets
here - SL _ crew gets here there'll
be two sets of six desieants in
sealed contigency decal bays in
MI30. That's the way we found
it and we noted that all 12 of
those desieants were a royal
blue and they w_ll need to change
desicants immediately before
the first use of immediately -
immediately upon arriving. Be-
cause the desi_ants don't last
very long. Okay, when I replaced
the desicants, I wasn't able to
find any - uh - of the sustained
contamination of which I - I've
been seeking. Using a swap I -
uh - wiped the metalic surfaces
that I could reach, I didn't - I
saw nothing floating in there
and when I pulled the swap out,
all I had was a little bit of dirt
on it but not anything more than
you'd expect and maybe a little
oxidation.

265 18 34 29 PLT I photographed the front of each

of these stations and I photo-
graphed camera station number 4
twice inorder to point out the -
uh - the - uh - big -uh - welt -
welt marks on the cneter of the
lens. And I believe the pictures
ought to come pretty well. I gook
quite a lot of time and I got
good light on them_ light that was
oblique would highlight the centered
appearance on the lens and aXso of -
uh - show-up the marks on the low
speed shutter disc. And I had good
light meter setting as well. I did
cheek the ligl]t meter battery and -
uh - it was right up to the top. So
that concludes the - uh _ EREP deactiva-
tion as contained in message 5726

people.

263 08 04 12 SPT SPT on channel A with a message to -

uh - Paul Patterson and others inter-
ested in the persistent image scope.
Uh - referring to your general message,
which you sent up to us about 8 or
lO days ago: I've not had time to -
uh - uh - take a look at - uh - the
possible problems that we experienced
earlier with persistent scope. How-
ever, looking at your comments, I
believe the things that we saw are
quite consistent with this description
of the - uh - way this thing - the -
uh - scope is built. Uh - for example,
the horizontal streaks that we saw - uh -
look as if they may be a temporary
break down of the - uh - uh - (Music)
high voltage between the - uh -
photecathode and the fiberoptics
plate, or somethinglike that, which
causes these streaks to appear across
the - uh - scope• Uh - also, you
indicate that t_ese things can occur
with either - uh - a - uh - weak battery
or a high contact resistance. I think
we could could've had either one or both.
Although the high contact resistance
appears more probable, since for the
last l0 days or so, the scope has been
working more or less normally.

267 08 05 27 SPT Uh - it's also consistent, I think,

with the fact that the - uh - first
half of the mission, we had a different
image presented in the I-R position
than we did in the ON position•

267 08 05 40 SPT And I think this is probably a different

contact resistance on those two contacts
on the - uh - scope. Now - uh - uh -
one of the principal reasons, perhaps
the M - main reason, I think, that we
didn't have it for a while - uh - during
the last half of the mission, was in
these positions - uh - the - uh - is
resistance of that contact had changed
to a point where it was just causing
theseeffectsto occur. Now, the --
 Dump Tape 267-01 .................
Page2 of 2 ................

" ......... scope has been working fine recently.

• But if there is another scope available,
or a - a procedure develops which
will get in there and clean those contacts
up, I think it would be a very useful
thing to prepare for SL-_, because they'll
find this a big advantage. Uh - they'll
really use that scope a lot, and it's
not something you want to take a very
big risk on having fail. So - uh -
so - send these comments to Paul
Patterson and others of the ATM - uh -
group who are interested in the persistent
image scope.

267 08 06 33 SPT Uh - from the SPT. Out.
