The nominal plan includes three two-man EVA periods during the 78 hour stay of the LM vehicle on the lunar surface. The first, second and third EVA's are each planned for seven hours of ac- tivity from depressurization to repressurization of the LM. EMU operations and procedures (including contingency) are covered in the EMU AQH, Reference 6. Photographic and TV camera operations are integrated herein in a summary manner, This document contains summary and detailed timeline and pro- cedures data. The voice data plan and copies of the crew's cuff checklist are included. The summary timelines are essentially a task flow analysis along a time base showing coincident activities and points of interaction between crew- men. The detailed timeline procedures simply list in the Sequence of performance, the steps required to carry out each of ‘the tasks identified in the summary timeline. It is in the detailed timeline procedures that the crew/equipment interfaces are revealed. Both the summary and detailed timeline proce- dures present the CDR's and the LNP's task side-by-side to minimize the confusion as to which crewman is doing what and to show how they cooperate in the lunar surface operations. The voice data plan is provided coincident with the detailed timeline procedures as a device by which cap-com (capsule communicator) is able to keep abreast of the crew's activities and to provide cap-com with cues, data and data recording points with which to provide realtime assistance to the lunar surface crew during the EVA activities. The crew's cuff check~ lists are included for information only, showing the procedural cues the crew have at their fingertips. ‘The procedures herein are responsive to the Mission Requirements for SA-512/CSM-114/LM-12 J-3 Type Mission currently in effect as of the date of this document,
