Similarly, the chest-mounted brackets that held packs of individual sample bags failed repeatedly and, eventually, they had to hand-carry a few bags at a time. Welcome to this 15 January 2018 release of the Apollo 10 Flight Journal, part of the Apollo Flight Journal series.. Like its companion, the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal, it is intended to be a resource for all those interested in the Apollo program, whether in a passing or scholarly capacity.. I think the geologists got carried away. Prior to the pressure check, Young and Duke had been able to move a little, despite the small size of the cabin. Their confidence in themselves and in their equipment showed up in the relative ease with which they worked on the hillside. Another thing that probably contributed to the formation of light-colored plains was: if you think about what would have been the logical course of eruptive events during mare formation, the major upwelling of mare basalt would have been preceded by a brief period of gas-charged debris eruption. We find both a significant deficit of solar cosmic ray (SCR)-produced 26 Al and a lack of SCR-produced 36 Cl in the top 3–5 g/cm 2 of the lunar regolith. transcript of all recorded conversations between the lunar surface Commander Thomas K. Mattingly II, Command Module pilot; and Lt. Download Image of View of lunar surface at Apollo 16 station 11. Watch fullscreen. The first thing that's going to melt as that mantle got hot enough to melt at all - or evolve - would be this gaseous, early-melt material. For Apollo 16, there were a couple of unplanned steps in the EVA preparations. And, indeed, there may be volcanics there. The Journal is intended as a resource for anyone wanting to know what My guess is that several different processes contributed to giving you about the same surficial features that were lumped together as the 'light-colored plains'. In Charlie Duke's case, he'd been doused with four or five ounces of orange juice while he and Young were still in lunar orbit. After donning their LCGs, they got into the pressure suits; and that was always a two-man operation. If you can improve it further, please do so. You may email the editors concerning typos, factual errors, or with general comments at: The corrected transcript, commentary, and other text incorporated in the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal is Log in. The LSM was a part of the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiment Packages (ALSEP) for the Apollo 12, 15, and 16 missions. "It really looks nice out there.". It includes a corrected The prior crews had tested equipment and procedures and, if the last two missions seemed a bit routine, it was only a mark of the maturity of the program. As Charlie Duke said, "I really want to get out, but I think that discretion is the better part of valor, here. The Journal is, in Neil Armstrong's words, a "living document" and is constantly being modified and updated. Young had to get as far over on his side of the cabin as he could so that Duke could reach the breakers and then turn to get the valves. In order to improve Young's and Duke's sleep schedule, the third and final moonwalk of the mission was trimmed from seven hours to five. Usually I consider the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal as the authoritative source, but I'm wondering in this case?--Abebenjoe 22:56, 11 December 2012 (UTC) I got an answer from the journal editors this evening. As Young and Duke kept running, the smiles in the Backroom got broader and broader and the laughter got louder and louder. 1.8.0.0 Product_Context Apollo 16 LSM Apollo 16 LSM A16 LSM A16 LSM 2017-11-14 1.0 Created by the NASA Space Science Data Coordinated Archive. Only Armstrong and Conrad landed more upright, and both had the advantage of young, lightly-cratered, mare sites. happened during the missions and why. As usual, the pressure check showed that the suits were tight. who explored the upper atmosphere with rocket-borne instruments It was clear that, with more time, better suits and equipment, and a spacious, indoor, shirtsleeve environment for making preparations and repairs, productivity could be increased significantly. At their various stops during the first two days, they had found white breccias with black inclusions and also black breccias with white inclusions. Consequently, they completed deployment of the Rover and, later, deployment of the ALSEP experiments with only a few problems. PDF version Individual Pages. Reproduced with the permission of Journal editor Eric M. Jones. Because of the need to get back to the Rover and start the journey back to the LM, Young and Duke only spent a few minutes taking pictures, collecting samples, and marveling at the size of House Rock. That's really neat." The scientists wanted samples of soil protected from the solar wind and, as Duke reached into the hollow with his shovel, kneeling so that he could reach back in as far as possible, he noted that, if you reach under a rock, "in West Texas, you get a rattlesnake; here, you get permanently shadowed soil." As he and Duke discovered once they got outside, had they landed "25 meters in any direction from the actual landing site, (the LM) would have been on a local slope of six to ten degrees." The problem had first occurred during LM checkout in orbit and, as with the CSM engine control problem, there had been some initial concern about aborting the landing. (A more complete discussion of the Service Module malfunction can be found at the start of the Journal chapter on the The material included in the Apollo 17 Lunar Surface Journal has been assembled so that an uninitiated reader can understand, in some detail, what happened during Apollo 17 and why and what was learned, particularly about living and working on the Moon. Page iv, Effective Pages (cont.) Commander Thomas K. Mattingly II, Command Module pilot; and Lt. They examined the white rocks first and then, with only a limited amount of time left, finally had a chance to trot over to the black rock. The crew made the first spacewalk during the return journey to Earth. Eric M. Jones. The light lunar gravity helped: "You should see me," Young said, "holding up this 50-pound pressure suit with one hand while Charlie is unzipping it with one hand. From the Apollo 16 Image Library: -e KSC-72P-114. John is doing some solo sampling while Charlie is about to use the penetrometer.] En fejl i servicemodulets hovedmotor var på nippet til at medføre en aflysning af månelandingen. Højdepunkter. Apollo Lunar Surface Journal - Apollo 16 Mission This link connects to transcripts of the radio transmissions of the Apollo 16 astronauts during their time on the lunar surface. Table of Contents. Before they had gone more than a kilometer north of the LM, Young and Duke noticed that the frequency of rocks and small craters had dropped considerably. Dezember 1972 um 0:33 Uhr Eastern Standard Time vom Kennedy Space Center in Florida.An Bord waren der Kommandant Eugene Cernan, der Pilot des Apollo-Raumschiffs Ron Evans und der Pilot der Mondlandefähre Harrison „Jack“ Schmitt.

On Apollo 16, the bags leaked because of intermittent contact between the end of the tube and the microphones that each of them wore. Then they repeated the process with Young. The crew consisted of Captain John W. Young, commander; Lt. Follow. Mission rules dictated that, at this point, the two spacecraft rendezvous in case it was decided that the crew would have to use the LM engines to get back to Earth. Duke's solo sampling went fairly well, and the only problem he really had was in figuring out what to do with the individual sample bags once they were full. The United States Government retains a Apollo Lunar Surface Journal Jack Schmitt was the Apollo 17 LMP and, as a professional geologist, made Apollo 17 the most scientifically productive of the six landings. The Apollo 16 Flight Journal. So I think several processes probably contributed to the light plains. On the way, they made a single stop, this one at another large, black boulder which had a south-facing overhang and a deep hollow underneath.

On every Apollo landing mission, crews complained about cables that were forever underfoot. Located at NASA headquarters, these transcripts are the work of Eric Jones, who has added explanatory notes and comments from the astronauts. Dedication: To Di and HP, the sources of my serenity;and to the memory of my uncle, Leslie M. Jones, It is noteworthy, as well, that Young used the Rover to mark a straight line of tire tracks for deployment of some geophone cables. Like its companion, the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal, it is intended to be a resource for all those interested in the Apollo program, whether in a passing or scholarly capacity. In particular, the re-designed drill stems on the heat flow experiment worked flawlessly and a jack-and-treadle greatly eased the job of extracting the deep core. They started with Duke. Apollo 16 war die vorletzte Mission innerhalb des amerikanischen Apollo-Programms. A few of those had carried dogs or monkeys as stand-ins for future human space travelers. However, after six hours of tests and analysis, Houston decided that the engine problem could be worked around and that the landing could proceed. Previously, one of the ALSEP package detached from the carrybar. And, finally, on their way north from Stone Mountain, back toward the LM, they momentarily lost power to the rear wheels. ; da. Apollo Lunar Surface Journal - Apollo 16 Mission This link connects to transcripts of the radio transmissions of the Apollo 16 astronauts during their time on the lunar surface. Indeed, stray juice was also suspected as the cause of a sticky valve in the LM's Environmental Control System. We would like to thank everyone for their help and patience. Lunar Surface Journal Apollo 12: Apollo 12 Documentation: Apollo 12 Flight Journal : Apollo 11: Apollo 13: Apollo 12 (14 novembre 1969 - 24 novembre 1969) est la sixième mission spatiale avec équipage du programme Apollo, et la deuxième à se poser sur la Lune. From the Apollo 16 Video Library. "I think Apollo 16 was a major scientific surprise because we don't know how to interpret what we found. Duke retired from the Astronaut Corps in 1975 and, later from the U.S. Air Force as a Air Force Reserve Brigadier General. Time and time again, astronauts got entangled. They're older than the mare because, everywhere I saw them, if you had a deep-enough, young crater that got down to where the mare had reached its selenocentric level, you'd see mare in the bottom of those craters. Then came the helmets and gloves, a communications check, and, lastly, a check of the pressure integrity of the suits. Last revised 05 June 2018. The harnesses that held the big sample collection bags on their backpacks wouldn't stay tight. The area aft of the crew stations was filled to hip height with the cover of the ascent engine. Please don't hesitate to let us know about errors. From then on, they drove in a rain of dust that was not only a nuisance but also contributed to a noticeable, and somewhat worrisome, heating of the Rover batteries. Because they were running short of time, Houston decided to omit a couple of other planned stops on the slopes of Smoky Mountain and have the astronauts head back toward the LM. Generally, the astronauts worked as a team when they were sampling; but here, as Duke worked around the rock, getting soil and chipping fragments off the boulder, Young was back at the Rover measuring the lunar magnetic field with a twin of the portable magnetometer carried by the Apollo 14 crew. Lunar Module Eagle (LM-5) is the spacecraft that served as the crewed lunar lander of Apollo 11, which was the first mission to land humans on the Moon.It was named after bald eagle, which was featured prominently on the mission insignia.It flew from Earth to lunar orbit on the command module Columbia, and then was flown to the Moon on July 20, 1969, by astronaut … They came down through 250 feet individually tailored for a heat flow cable that torn.
