Description
This is the transcription of the Apollo ll flightcrew communications as recorded on the command module (CM) data storage equipment (DSE), and subsequently transmitted (dumped) to Manned Space Flight Network stations. Magnetic tapes containing dumped voice and on board recorded ground elapsed time (GET) were forwarded to the NASA Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas. Transcription of these tapes was managed by David M. Goldenbaum, Test Division, Apollo Spacecraft Program Office, to whom questions regarding this document should be referred. The Apollo ll mission was flown July 16 to July 24, 1969. Communicators in the text are identified as follows: Command module: CDR Commander Nell A. Armstrong CMP Command module pilot Michael Collins LMP Lunar module pilot Edwin E. Aldrin, Jr. SC Unidentifiable crewmember MS Multiple speakers (simultaneous) Mission Control Center: CC Capsule communicator (CAP COMM) In the text, a series of three dots (...) is used to designate those portions of the communications which could not be transcribed because of garbling. One dash (-) is used to indicate a speaker's pause or a self-interruption. Two dashes (- -) are used to indicate an interruption by another speaker or a point at which a recording was abruptly terminated.
