How are you gentlemen? 206 00:15:50,324 --> 00:15:51,735 Just fine, thank you. 207 00:15:51,784 --> 00:15:53,571 Let me make a last check here. 208 00:15:53,619 --> 00:15:56,532 CDR, LMP and CMP, are you ready for hatch close? 209 00:15:56,581 --> 00:15:58,493 Any adjustment on your straps? 210 00:15:58,541 --> 00:15:59,907 LMP's happy. 211 00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:02,793 Roger. Okay, good luck. 212 00:16:02,837 --> 00:16:03,953 Thank you, Günter. 213 00:16:04,005 --> 00:16:06,463 See you around, Günter. 214 00:16:06,507 --> 00:16:07,901 All right, pad leader, let's proceed. 215 00:16:07,925 --> 00:16:10,588 Roger, we're proceeding with closing the hatch. 216 00:16:10,636 --> 00:16:12,423 - Roger. - Sequence 441, 217 00:16:12,472 --> 00:16:14,179 the CM hatch is closed. 218 00:16:14,223 --> 00:16:15,179 Roger. 219 00:16:15,224 --> 00:16:16,340 The hatch is closed 220 00:16:16,392 --> 00:16:18,304 and we're beginning to purge the cabin 221 00:16:18,352 --> 00:16:22,346 to bring it to the proper atmosphere for launch, 222 00:16:22,398 --> 00:16:26,108 which is a combination of oxygen and nitrogen, 223 00:16:26,152 --> 00:16:29,896 60% oxygen and 40% nitrogen atmosphere. 224 00:16:29,947 --> 00:16:31,563 Of course the astronauts themselves 225 00:16:31,616 --> 00:16:34,484 are breathing pure oxygen through their space suits. 226 00:16:39,624 --> 00:16:41,832 Coming up shortly will be another key test 227 00:16:41,876 --> 00:16:45,540 in which both the launch crew for the launch vehicle crew 228 00:16:45,588 --> 00:16:47,375 and the spacecraft team 229 00:16:47,423 --> 00:16:51,007 combine together with commander Neil Armstrong 230 00:16:51,052 --> 00:16:53,840 to make a thorough check of the emergency detection system. 231 00:16:53,888 --> 00:16:56,551 This is the system that will signal the astronauts 232 00:16:56,599 --> 00:16:59,467 in the cabin if anything goes wrong below them. 233 00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:02,637 We used a ground based computer to accomplish this test. 234 00:17:02,688 --> 00:17:04,850 It will take some 30 minutes. 235 00:17:23,584 --> 00:17:25,450 Neil Armstrong will be doing most of the work 236 00:17:25,503 --> 00:17:26,914 in the spacecraft, 237 00:17:26,963 --> 00:17:30,547 responding as different cue lights signify 238 00:17:30,591 --> 00:17:34,130 different difficulties presented to him. 239 00:17:34,178 --> 00:17:37,387 Our countdown continuing, this is Kennedy Launch Control. 240 00:17:45,356 --> 00:17:46,767 NASA officials. 241 00:17:46,816 --> 00:17:48,899 5,000 guests in all, 242 00:17:48,943 --> 00:17:51,981 including 400 congressmen and members of the Supreme Court, 243 00:17:52,029 --> 00:17:54,146 the Presidential Cabinet. 244 00:17:54,198 --> 00:17:57,487 The NASA official who escorted us over to this site today 245 00:17:57,535 --> 00:17:59,276 has called it a Roman circus. 246 00:17:59,328 --> 00:18:02,241 We all know that NASA has an agreement 247 00:18:02,290 --> 00:18:03,747 with over 60 countries... 248 00:18:05,543 --> 00:18:09,036 T minus 61 minutes on the Apollo 11 countdown 249 00:18:09,088 --> 00:18:12,081 and all elements are go at this time. 250 00:18:12,133 --> 00:18:14,466 Here in the firing room, the launch vehicle test team 251 00:18:14,510 --> 00:18:17,628 still keeping a close eye on the status of the propellants 252 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,672 aboard the Saturn V launch vehicle. 253 00:18:19,724 --> 00:18:21,511 This problem with the leaking valve 254 00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:23,551 is no problem at this time. 255 00:18:23,603 --> 00:18:25,435 We've actually bypassed the valve, 256 00:18:25,479 --> 00:18:28,813 but we are maintaining our hydrogen supply 257 00:18:28,858 --> 00:18:30,269 aboard the vehicle. 258 00:18:30,318 --> 00:18:33,527 That big swing arm that has been attached to the spacecraft 259 00:18:33,571 --> 00:18:35,563 up to now will be moved back now. 260 00:18:35,615 --> 00:18:38,358 In 5 seconds, the swing arm will come back. 261 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:41,235 Mark. 262 00:18:54,967 --> 00:18:58,756 CBTS, this is CSA 9, arm 9 is retracted. 263 00:18:58,804 --> 00:19:00,591 CBTS copy. 264 00:19:13,861 --> 00:19:17,445 Countdown still proceeding satisfactorily at this time. 265 00:19:17,490 --> 00:19:21,575 T minus 30 minutes, 52 seconds and counting; 266 00:19:21,619 --> 00:19:22,929 aiming toward our planned liftoff time 267 00:19:22,953 --> 00:19:25,240 of 32 minutes past the hour, 268 00:19:25,289 --> 00:19:27,781 the start of our launch window, 269 00:19:27,833 --> 00:19:30,621 some final checks of the destruct system 270 00:19:30,670 --> 00:19:33,663 of the three stages of the Saturn V launch vehicle. 271 00:19:33,714 --> 00:19:35,876 In the event, during powered flight 272 00:19:35,925 --> 00:19:39,089 that the vehicle strayed rather violently off course, 273 00:19:39,136 --> 00:19:40,343 the range safety officer 274 00:19:40,388 --> 00:19:43,301 could take action to destroy the vehicle, 275 00:19:43,349 --> 00:19:46,217 which obviously would occur after the astronauts 276 00:19:46,268 --> 00:19:51,514 were separated by their escape tower from the faulty vehicle. 277 00:19:51,565 --> 00:19:54,558 We've just got by an important test with the launch vehicle, 278 00:19:54,610 --> 00:19:57,353 checking out the various batteries in the three stages 279 00:19:57,405 --> 00:20:00,364 and Instrument Unit of the Saturn V. 280 00:20:00,408 --> 00:20:02,650 We remain on external power through most of the count 281 00:20:02,702 --> 00:20:04,534 to preserve those batteries 282 00:20:04,578 --> 00:20:07,241 which must be used during the powered flight. 283 00:20:07,289 --> 00:20:09,747 We've just taken a look at them by going internal 284 00:20:09,792 --> 00:20:12,250 and then switching back to external again. 285 00:20:12,294 --> 00:20:13,626 The batteries all look good. 286 00:20:13,671 --> 00:20:16,630 The next time we go internal will be at the 50 second mark 287 00:20:16,674 --> 00:20:19,132 with those batteries and they will remain, of course, 288 00:20:19,176 --> 00:20:21,759 on internal power during the flight. 289 00:20:21,804 --> 00:20:24,387 14 minutes, 30 seconds and counting. 290 00:20:24,432 --> 00:20:27,596 All still going well with the countdown at this time. 291 00:20:27,643 --> 00:20:29,600 For status report, we'll now switch 292 00:20:29,645 --> 00:20:32,433 to Mission Control Houston. 293 00:20:32,481 --> 00:20:34,848 This is Apollo Mission Control. 294 00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,187 Flight
