the pass that started 23:44. Okay,
JOP 6 step 2, building block 32
completed as per pad. And
JOP 2 Charlie, step 6 is in the
process of being completed, has
about 12 seconds to go in the
82B exposure and about 1 minute
to go on the 54 sequence - time
sequence. In the pointing at
the corona -this quiet corona -
I think - I think it's all riF_ht.
There's no big problem. I didn't
see anything in the way. So
it looks like that you know what
you wanted. In the JOP 2 Charlie,
all three exposures, 82B, went
well. I Just let 55 mirror 0933

Subject is Earth observations.
Handheld target number HH35-2
and HH55-4 which is right near
the Bonin Islands. Unable to
see it. Either - couldn't even
see the Bonin or the volcano -
volcano islands because of heavy
cloud cover, and also the fact
that we are - We passed slightly
north of them, and we are
looking to the north now in our
orbit. And it was very
difficult to even see in that
direction. But the cloud cover
_. in the areawas for the most part
broken to overcast. I was able
to look over to the island of Kyushu
Dump Tape oo9-ol
Page 6 of 14

and took a look at Sakurazima.


Sakurazima is still blowing
tan smoke today. The wind is
obviously not as strong as it
was yesterday. The wind was
blowing right down the bay -
out toward the mouth of the
bay. And there appeared to
be a 90-degree shift in the
wind again at about the mouth
of the bay, and the - the smoke
began to feather off to the -
to the east, and looked very
much like an ostrich plume or
something. Starting at the -
at the volcano, extending to
the southeast - to the south,
and then beginning to feather
off toward the southeast _ and
looking verymuchlikean
ostrich plume. The smoke
coverage was quite extensive.
It was every bit as extensive
as it was yesterday. And I
looked up into the Tokyo area,
was unable to see HH55-3 due
to cloud coverage. And from
this distance, the area HHllg-7
was difficult to make any kind
of a good observation.

009 O1 55 24 CDR CDR out.

009 01 55 58 CDR This is the CDR again at 01:55,


continuing Earth observations
comments. This time is - is
the report on photos taken at
00:00 GMT of the western Australia
rangeland, HH146-9. The frames
were frames 103 to 105 for the
Hasselblad 100, Charlie X-ray 51.
It was under an f-stop of 8,
1/250. And was remarkably
cloud-free and pretty good Sun
._ angle. Thesepictures you
should be able to compare with

pictures taken a month ago


for any changes.

CDR In general I would ss_ the


Australian rangeland still looks
quite red. It is not what
you would call very green at
all. The grazing areas are
not very rectangular. There
are a few straight lines seen
whe - which are probably fence
lines, but for the most part,
the patterns of the - of
the grazing land are rather
irregular, indicating that the
cattle, or - or whatever the -
the animals are, are ranged
pretty much free, and stick
Just to where the vegetation is.
And therefore, the - the grazing
patterns are uneven, and not
too - too verymuch rectilinear.

Page 1 of h

009 02 53 57 SPT SPT at 02:52. ATM ops, last pass


of the day. It began around 01:15.
J0P 6 01A [sic] IB, no problem.
Building block 2 after that, no
problem. I was pretty quick even
though I had to look at the pad
twice, and - to make sure that's
what we wanted to do. It seemed
strange to do a - a JOP - or a
building block 2 after a IA and
lB. Seemed to me tht a - a
JOP, or a building block 2 is sort
of a short version of - of l, and
it's geared for S052 with a STANDARD
MODE. And building block 32 is
Just a quicker version of that. Good
better and best. I was surprised to
see the two of them lumped right

together
there.

009 02 53 24 SPT I guess that would be a good question


to ask. It's great to do it. I'm
Just - would be at a loss though to
figure out why we - why it was planned
that way, but I'm sure there's a good
reason. After that I went out to take
a look at active region 16, and tried
to look at the intensity in oxygen VI,
get a feel for how hot it is. And in
searching around I could see that the
location right over the sunspot based
along our line of sight ot the sunspot
so it was really to the east of the
sunspot higher in altitude - I'm sorry,
west of the sunspot. I'll never make
an astronomer; I was always get east
and west confused .... years.

009 02 54 22 SPT Okay, the area to the west of the sun-


spot must be hotter. Well, fairly hot,
because I was getting counts of 4000
or so looking right at the sunspot, and
going north or south along that line was
also fairly hot. I saw the hottest
_. regionnorth of the - directlynorth of
the sunspot, the plage directly north.
Dump Tape 009-03
Page 2 of 4

And I was searching around and saw


a spot that was 7000 in oxygen VI.
And in trying to maximize that, I
managed to move off it slightly, and
I could never regain 7000.

009 02 55 06 SPT Try as might in i arc second increments,


the best I could get from there on
was 7000. And that made me think that
perhaps we had a - something of a
transient nature going on there, although
it was a - almost a factor of 2 in a
matter of 15, 20 seconds. And that, I
think, is perhaps beyond the nature of
those transients. But I then tried to
maximize best I could, got it to around
to 3500, 4000 and did some truncated
MIRROR AUTO SCAN at that point, and
then some truncatedMIRRORAUTO RASTERs
down to line 13. I think I got in
about two of hem before 400K. And 56
received I believe 5 PATROL SHORTs.

009 02 56 59 SPT Oh, one other thing: back in building l,


I again m_naged to do the GRATING AUTO
SCANs at llne 9 rather than line 25.
And I guess that 'B _what I get for
memorizing the - the building block and
not readint it. I've gotten into the
habit again of doing it right after
unattended operations where it 's always
at 25. So I'm to make myself another
mental note.

009 02 56 42 SPT Okay, going out to the active region, what


I was hoping to find was some fairly
intense bright points, as opposed to
uniform plage, and hopefully an indicator
that we might have some instability in
the active region. However, it looked
like a - Just a continous region of
plage, except for that one - one spike
of 7000 which l'm still at a little bit
of a mystery to - still at a loss to
explain. I noted that one is in the
Holt - or I should say the Smith longitude,
between the Smith and the Holt.
Dump Tape 009-03
Page 3 of h

009 02 58 07 SPT And with any lick when we finally


get the Herman longitude coming around
again, we might have some real complex
of activity. I hope that the frequency
od active regions coming over remains
the same. I'm not hoping - I don't think
we'll get anything as goos as SL-3, but
we may get something close to that. I had
a quick look at the s,,mmary of observing
programs for looking at the active region
longitude over the next l0 days. It
looks pretty good. I think we're - it
emphasizes the right things at the
right time.

009 02 58 58 SPT I know one thing which - again I'd like


to emphisize that from this - from the
stand point of up here, the way to get a
r_ flareriseis to allow the operatorthe
time to look into the scope and be doing
nothing but watching for a bright point,
as well as monitoring the PMEC when you're
in the SAA so you can turn it off and on,
monitoring the BERYLLIUM APERATURE, monitor-
ing the intensity in H-alpha, which on
some of the bright point - point
brightenings we've see before comes up
at the same time, although I know it's
not always coincident. But the operator
needs - needs to be able to afford a
good part of his concentration for that.
He can be running other mumdame -
I shouldn't say mumdame, but other tasks
which don't require a lot of heavy work,
or mental manipulation.

009 03 00 lh SPT Another subject which - that we have


been talking about now that J0P 18D is
over, or all of 18, and the comet is
pretty much behind us. I personally, and
I think all of us - I mean the ATM world -
have not been getting a good n,lmher of
passes of solar observations. We felt
we ought to be able to - to get at
least one more. Lookingat theat schedule,
I saw six or seven I'd like see eight,
Dump Tape 009-0B
Page 4 of h

possibly nine. I, personally, would like


to get four, possibly five a day. Now
it's not working out that way, and
I've been kind of disappointed by it.
Tomorrow doesn't look any better. Two
passes is for me, and that's it. I
think after all of the - the effort that
we all have put into this thing, and
all the experience we've gained on how
to operate the instruments, the best way
to get data, that the Sum is there, the
instrument's there, the knowledge is there,
we ought to take advantage of it. So I'm
personally going to try and figure a way
of getting mere time.

009 03 Ol 45 SPT Doing it late at night probably is not


the best way for me I - I am Just not
a night owl, and I'm not very efficent.
Even in the last half here I was not
too - not as effeient. Probably the only
way I'll eve/ do it is, if we have to add
anything on to the day, is to get up in
the morning and try it that way. Although
I'm hesitant to do that right now, because
we're Just robbing efficiency from the
remaider of the day. If it's got something
good on the disk though, I'm sure exceptions
will be made. We'll be talking more with the
folks on the ground on this one over the nex
couple of days.

009 11 49 36 PLT Okay, PLT_ I'm doing a T002, and


I Just started my null bias. The
first number is 0026; temperature
is 71 degrees now. And, let's
see; I have the neutral density
13 in the mirror, and the neutral
density 16 on the circular line
of sight.

)09 ll 50 49 PLT MARK. 00095. I'm gonna have to


take the filters out because I
lose both of'em - can't compare
the, in there real close; there's
Just a little spacing.

009 ll 51 15 PLT MARK. 00012.

009 Ii 51 3_ PLT MARK. 0023.

009 Ii 53 31 PLT MARK. 00023.

009 ii 53 47 PLT MARK. 00023. Okay, let's see.


What do I have here? I have - if
there are two stars that you want ...

PLT 12 to 16. Okay, 12 is_Rigel. And


Procyon. Rigel, Procyon, and that's
39 degrees. 12, 16, looks like.
Yes.h, it is. Okay, see if we can
get ... quick marks here.

009 11 55 26 PLT 39 degrees. Temperature is now 73 de-


grees on the case, and I notice that
there's an awf_l lot of moisture
that collects on the csse from my
Dmnp Tape 009-05
/_ Page 2 of 7

breath, from my nose, right to the -


to the left of the nu - numeral
indicator, angle indicator display.
So it probably does make a difference
on - when there's a temperature rise;
and there's Just no doubt about it.
Okay. 30 degrees.

PLT Gosh, I'm getting" a lot of moonlight


in that one.

PLT Okay, starting the marks now.

009 ll 58 49 PLT MARK. Okay, that was 38561.

PLT I'm gonna ... up and try some filter.

PLT Yeah it doesn't look like it was


a very good mark; we'll see. And
I'll tell you what filter later.
f_

009 12 00 08 PLT MARK. 38560.

PLT Gotta take the filter out. That


was nu - neutral density, 1.0.

009 12 02 38 PLT MARK. 38568. One of the things


is getting my fingers off the knob
without moving it; that's a problem.

PLT This awkward position ... holding


things ... Why, you'd think ...
for me.

009 12 03 13 PLT MARK. 38572.

009 12 04 13 PLT MARK. 38559.

009 12 0h 53 PLT MARK. 385 - oops! Okay, hit the


knob. Man, that's a - particularly
when you hold this in the awkward
position, sidways, like I mn between
these two stars. They're left to
right as I'm standing here. I tell
you, it's not nearly as easy.

009 12 05 43 PLT MARK. 38585.

Page 3 of 7

009 12 06 35 PLT MARK. 38570. Just don't like to do


it this way. Regardless of what you
say, there is up and down in space.

009 12 07 02 PLT MARK. 385504 If you don't believe


it, look at the signal on these.

009 12 07 32 PLT MARK. 38568. Okay. Right now the


temperature is 75 .degrees. Focus
is set at minus 1.6. And this is
about five times as hard as taking'era
when the stars are up and down relative
to me as I look out the window, with
my fee planted in the floor. So
frcm- as far as I'm personally
concerned, the - there is a distinct
difference in the ease and the ability -
and the accuracy you can get, whether
the stars are located up and down
relative to your body position and the
way you're fixed, your postural
_ position,and Whetherthey're
left/right. I - these are Just
about - it goes frc_, oh, about 8 o'clock
up to about - say 8:30 to 22:30. As
I'm looking out the wardroom window
with my feet in the grid floor. And
I'm finding this extremely difficult.
I 'm finding much more of a tendency
to change the setting with my fingers
on these knobs. I think I owe you
about five more marks here.

PLT Much more of a tendency to overshoot.


I lose track of which star - which
mag to move close.

it's getting awfUlly light out there.

though.

009 12 13 58 PLT MARK. 38560.

009 12 14 29 PLT MARK. 38564. And that's it. Okay,


the temperature on the instruments
is 67 degrees. My diopter setting
right now is minus 1.6. I used no
filter. And that was Procyon and
Rigel. PLT out.

009 12 15 09 PLT PLT. One oth - final note. I


reported T002-2, filter ll - or I
will be reporting a T002-3, filter ll,
moon moon, and a T0O2-1, stars ll
and 12. Both of those are on tape
starting at about 0_:20 on day 8.
And I notice the gro_aud took the tape
recorders, so I don't know how much
of the star ll and 12 you got. The
one that I Just finished was on -
was it 12 and 16 - Rigel and Procyon,
whatever they are. So if you'll
notice that a - that a - the TOO2-1 is
reported for which you do not have full
information, because ground took the
recorder from me. And that wss last
night. They probably thought that
we were already to bed or something.
But I - they ought to see when we're
using the recorder. Anyway, that'll -
that 'll explain that point.

a beck of a lot noticeable, but there
is some small changes. Let's take
compartment one. The seeds at the
top and the bottom of that compartment,
not the one in the middle exhibiting
some growth out of each end. The
one ... - the top. The top of
either one towards the top of the
numbers. At one end it's Just got
Just a very small amount of growth
that I can see, maybe i/i0 of the
size of the see itself and about the
same down thereat the bottom.

009 12 50 02 SPT Let's see, number 3 is the . .. one.


I'll tell you what I'll call them A,
B, and C. A will be the top, B
in the middle and C at the bottom.
C to A, CC, a little bit of growth.
Okay, let's take a look at 3,
compartment 3. Don't see much going
on there at all .... compartment 1
is the with - one gets the most light.
That 's right. Okay. Compartment 3,
nothing.

009 12 50 37 SPT Compartment - well now let me take


a little closer look. Shouldn't be
so quick. C-A got a small amount of
growth, maybe Just barely budding at
the end of each seed, looks about
the same, very small. Well - Ah, hold
off on the B0C looks as though there's
Just a little something coming off the
very end. It's a very amall tentacle
and then a little bit of growth,
maybe 1/20th the size of the seed.
Well, hold off on htat.

009 12 50 ii SPT And now incidentally in looking


in the viewfinder in the Nikon
photography, l'm not sure you're
going to see that much. I seem
to be able to see better with eye
putting a flashlight up against here
but that remains to be seen when
we get back and really look at
the film closely.

009 12 51 44 SPT Okay, it's compartment 5: Seeds -


C has split the - B has some small
amount of growth coming from the
tip if it - no it appears to be
coming fr_n the - all these seem to
be coming frem the sharper end of
the seed. And there's a small amount
of growth in the seed. A also at the
bery tip is budding. In compartment 7
it's the same for that, a small
emount A. B and C I don't see
anything. Okay, compartment 2.

009 12 52 30 SPT I'm going down the righthand


side now. Compartment 2 doesn't have
anything in it and it's Just as well
because that one has really ....
up with a lot of ... agar. Oh,
year. Look at compartment 4. Seed B
is doing very nicely. Got two curlyques
coming out of the tip, then cnm_ng out
they grow - oh, I shouldn't say two,
I should really say one is all that's
evident.

009 12 53 14 SPT There's a - looks to be part of -


a very small part of the seed is broken
away, and not broken away, but the
skin is pushed off it, and opened up
like a flap and then a something about
maybe one half the length of the
seed, a little arm, reaches up
and curls around maybe it makes
270 degrees so far that's looking
at it frcm the right hand side.

009 12 53 40 SPT With the thing up it comes


from - coming from - going
through 090 going to my right
curled down and finally it makes
a turn to go back up again. Let's
see, compartment 6:

CC ... at 13:23.

SPT A little bit of growth coming


from there. And a little bit
of - hit of growth from B, tip of
B, a very small tentacle reaching
out. Not quite as impressive as
the one above. More of a filsmentory
nature not as thick as the tentacle
in compartment 4.

009 12 55 06 SPT And seed A not doing much of anything.


Seed C, a little - little bit.
Very sm,11 tentacle. Yes. Compart-
ment 8: There's not too much. C-C
is split. I'iibe goldanged. Can-
partment 8 we got two seeds and slot
C or slot B, wonder how the heck that
one worked? Man, that went right by
the books. Okay, '_otioe ... uses a
lot of water ... accumulated on the
inside of the front surface ...

the day. PRetty soon we'll have
ourselves a real nice harvest. We

floating around. I ... to a live
one. The original outcropping
which we had a short while back
was 4, possibly 5, I believe I
said and right now I can locate
three of those which are in a
clump and the top ... These are
all in wild vial. I can locate
three of them of them in ... I

009 14 31 13 SPT So the count is a bit difficult.


All I can say now is that there's
/_ probably at least six that has
been hatched, possibly more, a
minimum of six. The ... hatching
again are very tricky thing, but
I tried to estimate that before
by eye, not sure how accurate I
was. I have since been able to
get out a very small magnifying
glass and look at the eggs, and
I find that some eggs are half
translucent and the other half
opaque. Very few of them are
that way, but some are and I'm not
sure that - looking at some of these
that, ... before led me to believe
we had ... hatching. As I say,
there's a whole cluster of those
things together. The ones I ...
are floating free, I cannot see
any ... hatching when using the

I the problems with the magnifing
glass is that it tends to pick
up a little bit of static electricity,

side apparently have acc_ulated
in seme way. And whenever I move
the magnifing glass up to the vial
to look at it, they all move away
from that magnifing glass. I have

CORONAGRAPH: between
yesterday and today, the -
this large wide streamer
that Ed was talking about
yesterday that had three
spikes in it, it's now
reduced back down to two
spikes again. It's a
little narroWer, it's
about the same width at
the base, but it's narrowed
down at the top. And then
I remember yesterday evening
Ed mentioned, I believe to
the ground, that up at about
300 degrees it looked like
another spike, a long
narrowspike.It was
beginning to form. That's
still there this morning.
And to me, and on the pic-
ture, I've got here that I
took, it looks like it's
narrower at the b_e - -

another exposure here.
Supposed to start at 59;
we're a little behind.
Adjusted filter; it is in.
It's 300. Ready to go.

over on the other side of

However, sc_e of the ma-
terial in the middle is kind
of dropped out, so what
you've really got is a - is
a spike at about 2 o'clock,
and a spike at 3 o'clock.
And then it begins to dim
out a little bit in between,
in the - in the wide band
in between. And that's it
on the WHITE LI(_IT CORONAGRAPH.
And then in H-ALPHA, active
region 14, now is three sunspots.
You've got the one bright
one that was there yesterday.
There's one out ahead of it
about 45 arc seconds to the
west, and then to the east
of it about 45 arc seconds
there's kind of a weak,
floppy-looking area that
looks like it might solidify
_ into a sunspot or s_nehting.
It shows up in the WHITE
LIGHT DISPLAY of the _JV SLIT.
And - Let's see_ the bright
spot that I mentioned that's
below active region 14, that's
about llO.3. We have H-alpha
enhancement there and I got
a oxygen VI count - -

SPT Okay. That takes care of


that. We're frame number B,
freme number 9 coming up,
5577.

CDR The three AW/V spots I saw


do have H-alpha enhancement.
They're not very - not very
hot, but it's better
developed than it was
yesterday. Pruminence
64 is clear sand more pro-
nounced than it was yesterday,
but it's about the same size.

Active region 16 is a fairly


simple active region; it's
not too hot. Oxygen VI,
maximum count I could get
was about 2000. It's one
single sunspot. And then
below it on that east limb
about 20 degrees below it,
there's a little bit of
surge activity - -

where surges are about two
to three times the heigth
of the spicules in that
area.

CC Okay, Jerry. Copy.

for you, in addition to what
you asked. We're moving back
down in the opposite direction.

CC - - any brightening at all


above the southeast limb?

009 15 02 36 SPT Tracking now in the opposite


direction than we were before.

there's a good deal of
brightening - -

CC Okay, CDR. Sure appreciate


the real good briefing and
the guys will be using it
to plan the res - to take
a look at the rest of the
day and also this extra ATM
pass looks like we - we may
get. While you're thinking
about that, let me give you
a note for a couple of your
succeeding daylight cycles,
Jerry. And I don't think
it's necessary for you to
be looking at the ATN sched-
_- ule pad for this. But on
two of your daylight cycles
that are coming up later,
at the end of them the res -
a powerdown listed for a
S063 maneuver and later for
A S183 maneuver, and ATM ad-
vises that he would like you
to use the powerdown for EREP
cue card when those show up
in the schedule pad.

CDR Will do it.

CC Okay, a couple emore things.


When you and Bill have a
chance - -

at 04, the one right now.

009 15 0_ 32 SPT MARK.

CC - - The land mass there in


central America will be
somewhere around 2000 foot
scattered. It will get a
little more cloudy on the
eastern shores there. Then
as you cross up across Cuba
and the Bahamas, that should
be very good, some - occasionally
some scattered to broken clouds.
Then again, as you cross the
North Atlantic it's going to vary
that - that - there is abig low
out to the East of the Eurasian
land mass there, so it's - it's
going to vary between some clear
spots and also some fairly heavy
cloud cover, but it - it won't
cover quite the large areas that
it has. The coast of France as
you cross it sould be pretty
clobbered we think.

CDR Roger, copy.

CC Okay.

we doing on time here? Coming up

anybody's - anybody's - anybody's
available to do it for us. What
we'd like this morning is both
REG ADJUST pots i and 2, rotate
about 20 degrees clockwise.
That 's - -

SPT Okay. Turn it to another exl_osure,


last exposure.

CC Going up and the daylight period -


getting longer and longer it turns
out that we're not - after this
EREP we probably are not going to
remove this adjustment, and we'll
go with it and let it stay here
until further notice.

PLT Okay. I Just made it. Take a


look at it.

CC Bill, we're about a minute and


15 seconds before we get into
sunrise, and we reASly need to
get there before we can give you
a really good hacks, but I'ii let
you know. We still have about
2 minutes in the pass, so go back
to what you're doing. That's fine.

PLT Okay.

SPT Sure _s changing. I've got to


change the - the RING LOCK a heck of
a lot more than the - for the tracking.
Okay, we've got another - -

CC PLT, HOuston ... - -

SPT - - 25 seconds to go there.

CC S1m,_ry Flight Plan there. And


if you have a minute, I can
_ explain to you what the options
are on - to get Ed this extra
ATM pass that involves both of
you guys. And then during the
LOS or sometime you can talk to
him and tell us which way you guys
would like to do it. Either way
we get the ATM pass.

PLT Okay, press on.

CC Okay. The cleanest way to do it,


if you'll look at your colnmn ann
also Ed's, down there about 18:30
you notice he has an S063 AST-3,
and then _ at about 19:30 you - -

SPT Stand by -

009 15 ll O0 SPT MARK. Okay. SHIfA",',:R


CLOSEd. That
concludes it.

CC The cleanest way to do it is Just


to swap those two. You would do
the stow and then eat and he would
Dump Tape 009-07
Page Ii of 25

do the prep after his ATM pass,


which we're going to stick in there
right after his S063 AOP. Another
way that - that you might do it is
you Just shorten your eat period
and you pick up both the stow and
the prep, if you would prefer to.
Either way you'd get the stow, and if
you'd like to also do the prep
since you're going to do the ops,
that'd be okay with us. That would
free up Ed for a good bit of time
there that he could do science
demos, but really doesn't matter
to us. If you'd Just let us know
which way you guys would like to
handle it, we'll give you the supporting
information a little hit later.

PLT Okay, why don't I go ahead and do


both of those because I have chili
for lunch and that's not going to
_ take me long.

CC Okay - -

PLT So I'll Just do the S063 Alfa


Sierra Tango 3, and we'll Just call
it quits at that.

CC Okay. Suits us fine, and we'll -


%_'i1 give you any supporting
information you need. And we'll
look at the Flight Plan based on
that. We're about to go LOS here.
I'll give you a call at Texas at
15 :h3. See you there.

SPT Thanks very much for working that


out, Dick. What time would the
ATM pass start?

CC It's at about 18:26 when you'll get


there. You'll - you'll arrive there
right after your S063 AOP, and wet11
have a plan for you when you get
there.

whole exercise went without any
problems. EVerything went on time.
I got the video tape recording done.
And during the observing time - I
spent the whole observing time Just
sort of exploring around. I did no
shopping list itums. Mainly did some
looking at active regions 14, 15, and
16. That 's the bright spot that 's
at about 280 at 9. And looked at
another bright spot that's down at
ii0 at 0.3. I don't need to debrief
that now because I gave the full
schmear on that at - on the air-to-

_ that pretty much covers the debriefing
for the 12:12 ATM pass, The 13:1_
ATM pas - correction, 13:44 was
J0P 6, step 2 which was a quickie; no
problem there. Then I Jumped into
JOP i Echo 7]); nothing spectacular
there. When I did the step 2 with
the MIRROR GRATING at 0000, got the
whole thing finished. Stepped up
to a grating position of 772 and

a look at the southeast limb. I have
Dump Tape 009-08
"-_ Page l0 of 12

done that. I see in H-alpha at a ROLL


of around - this is sc_e from the
north - the ROLL of around minus 1900,
maybe 1850. I see what looks like very
small prominence extending maybe 20 are
seconds abouve the limb. Make that
possibly 25 above the llmb and the
length along the limb being about 80 arc
seconds. Below that, further south,
there is Just a small Sun burst. Could
be the left - over part of a surge,
or could actually be part of a promi-
nence. Hard to tell. It's about
i0 minutes - i0 arc seconds high, and -
and 20 are seconds along the limb. l'm
right now at a ROLL of minus 1895,
and UP/DOWN of minus 24 shich has the
white light slip parallel or taken -
parrallel to the limb. And a LEIT/
RIGHT of minus 1017 which was out
30 arc seconds above the limb.

009 18 44 25 SPT I found this to be a maximum in Oxygen VI


of around250. The regionextending
from a ROLL of minus 1880 to around
1915. It's all above 200. I think
that sight from the southeast limb
is certainly a good one. In looking
at the - Stane by a moment.

sIT In looking at the eoronagraph, we see


a - two very pronounced helmet streamers
extending above the southeast limb,
that is, at around 220, 230.

SPT On the associated H-alpha increase that


we see here which is brass [?I prom-
inence perhaps something a little
higher enerby things are coming over
the limb or in that region. And also
these relatively highte counts say
that we do have something going on
there that's worth investigatin. I'd
be surprised to see any kind of an
ae - active region that far south,
however.

SPT Oh, very nice. As I look at the -


at XUV MONITOR in INTEGRATE, we find
this whole limb is enhanced - beginning
where I'm looking is enhanced. Adn also
coming frc_ the region maybe l0 degrees
or so above our present location we
see ... quite a bit of enhancement.

009 18 47 26 SPT And also, extending from that enhance-


ment, a little arch, which is really
a couple arc minutes long, and extends
right down to the region where I'm
presently located.

SPT So we - If we do have something done,


thls is the first time I have ever been
able to see an arch above the limb in
the XUV. Usually, we Just see enhance-
ment, and it's all filled in right
next to the limb.

SPT That's very nice. There's also is


osme enhancement quite a bit further
southon that. I'dhave to get XUV
monitor picture of this and use the
better equipment.

SPT Very nice. Okay, we're working in a


very good region then. I would recom-
mend working this one a little bit
more, and I could see - could get a
little - one little narrow, but very
pronounced arch extending down to
where I sm from the region above.

SPT Okay, I'll deplete this a little bit

009 23 35 47 SPT SPT at 23:36, ATM ops. Passage


began at 23:03. Building block 32,
no problem. Went through the
pass to get some observing time in.
Went out and looked at the -
at what I what I was figuring was
a limb structure above the active
regions in the southeast quadrant.
When I first went out there I couldn't
see it. What I did was then go out
around 20. I searched for a long
time, probably spent a little bit
too long looking for it.

009 23 37 i0 SPT Looked for it in the XUV monitor, and


for some reason it was Just not very
clear. I could seethe base where
it started out at either end, hut
it was not - the top was not clear.
For i, 2, 3, 4 - second integrations
the optimum turned out to be 2 before -
in order to see it.

009 23 BY 50 SPT I also noted at that time that right


down there at the base where I thought
the - where I thought it was - where
I thought the loop structure was,
directly underneath it would be a
prominence. I thought : well, all
l'm seeing now is Just absorption by
the prominence of the higher XUV
emission, and that's what gives me
the loop appearance; there's another
active region coming around the corner.
So, i figured while I was over there,
l'd - would go ahead and try to at
least find the hottest region in
that area. So I went out around
SO arc seconds - 20 arc seconds, I
believe, and rotated around the
Sun until I could get at Sun center -
until I could get to a relatively hot
.._._ Dump Tape 009-12
Page 2 of 8

location. And star%ed that with


a 15-second - 15-minute exposure
for the XUV SLIT, WAVELENGTH SHORT.
GRATING AUTO SCAN for 55. And then
I started a 8-minute exposure on
FILTER 4 for 56.

009 23 39 06 SPT I then started looking at the


XUV monitor again, and after about
h minutes went by and for some
reason, all of a sudden the loop
structure was now very apparent
again. And sure enough, it was right
down there close to where the
prominence had appeared. This prominence,
as I mentioned earlier this morning
when I saw - first was the loop
structure was not a very pronounced
prominence, if one at all. It
was two appendages maybe 30 to 40 arc seconds
long coming off of the - the limb, maybe
spaced 60 arc seconds apart and
.4 declined towards the sough, with an
angle between the - the limb and the
axis of the appendage of about
30 degrees. Now, this evening the
prominence over there is fairly
well difined. Looks like they have
zero prominence.

009 23 40 21 SPT Okay, back to the middle of these


observations which were being carried
out; and I looked again and saw
what is now the loop structure was
very prominent above the -
that area. And I questioned why
the heck it would change in visibility
in the XUV monitor. I've tried
things like turning the CROSSHAIR
INTENSITY way down to make sure that
that was not entering into it.
Moving off of - once I committed
myself to move, I moved off completely -
off the crosshair location and confirmed
that was not it.
_, Dump Tape 009-12
Page 3 of 8

So what I decided was that, seeing as


you don't have too much more time, and
these things been around for too long,
I interrupted what i was doing. The
only thing I really regretted was
that I had the XUV SLIT going on type 101
film, your last frame.

009 2S 41 18 SPT And I think all I got in for them on


that relatively hot location around
20 arc seconds off the limb was a
5 minute 20 second exposure. And
I got a little over 4 minutes for 54,
SINGLE FRAME 4, and Just about a
GRATING AUTO SCAN for 55.

SPT So, I committed myself to move, and


looked then in magnesium X on the grating,
and went over to a location on the
loop structure - over on the
alleged loop structure - and found
some counts up around 200, 250. And
I was about 35 are seconds off the
limb. And from the data which I had
supplied to me by 55 on permsnent
general message number 6, that's right
in the ball park for loop structure
in magnesium X. So I found the hottest
ioeatlon and started a GRATING AUTO
SCAN there. I gave 82B a h0-second
exposure WAVELENGTH, SHORT timed
using auxiliary timer. And 56 reeieved
a PATROL, SHORT.

009 _3 _3 25 SPT So, it may very well be that we've


Just got cold material - ...
relatively cool material in front
of the XUV emission above zero, and
active regions still yet to come
around the corner. I guess it's
a little bit of good news and a
little bit of bad news. If it's
a loop, then we've got something
real interesting. If it's not a
loop, then we got something hot
coming around the corner. So maybe
all is not lost. It's had my hopes
_. up, and I think turned out a little
bit - turned out to be somewhat of
Dump Tape 009-12
Page 4 of 8

of a disappointment, in that I could


never really get it down using 55,
as well as the ...

009 23 44 30 SPT One thing I find about this work is


that, it's sure - sure is frustrating
because you're always under the gun
from the time element. The old
event timer - or time of the sunset
Just keeps cranking down. And you know
you've got to - to try to get some
useful data with the instruments avail-
able, and yet, you don't want to do
it in a way which is going to cause
you to miss maybe one of the better
opportunities. So it's this constant
battle of do I diddle a little bit
more and try to find something better,
or do I settle for what I've got?

009 23 45 31 SPT I guess, however, that could be


said for all kinds of neat things in
life. Tomorrow, on the day off,
I think I'll lo - look at that area
a little bit more; try to get the -
a good look at the - what is coming
around the corner. And if it does
turn out to be a loop maybe we'll
get that too.

010 01 42 37 SPT SPT at 02:42. ATM pass which began


at 00:56, building block IA and IB,
straight forward; VTR, no problem.
And I tried to sneak in a little
observing time there twoards the
end but never got a chance to
take any data. But, ... tried to
take a look again at the activity
above the limb, the southeast limb.
And I must 8d_4t that it still looks
pleasing. I went out 55 or 58 -
58 arc seconds off the limb.

SPT Went to - GRATING position of 2694,


so I could look at neon VII, the
465 line. And then Just rolled it
out Sun center. And I found
counts around 5060 as I was rolling
about Sun center. The area where
I suspected the loops to be
in are up around 20 or 30 as best as
_-_ I can remember. So perhaps there was
something there. I know what you've
given me is numbers considerably
smaller than that, 7 to !0. I was
surprised by those numbers. The
ones where they were the highest were
up north of the region I suspected
a loop to be. A loop I finally centered
in a ROLL on - on a maximum in
neon VII and a ROLL of minus 1558.
And that loop structure is Just
barely - barely apparent sometimes
in the XUV Monitor and then it gets
diffuse and then sometimes it comes
in fairly clear. We do have some
GRATING SCAN on it today, so I'm sure
that the question can be resolved.
But whether it's really loop
structure or Just an active region
... high in the corona which is
occulted by the prominence.
Several things go against that
though. One is that the line which
• r_ .

Dump Tape 010-01


Page 2 of 5

I saw in the XUV MONITOR was


very thin as opposed to a emission
which is occulted which I would
expect to be a little more diffuse
and larger than that. And again
all that I saw all here was using the
precision image scope and short
integration, Just 2 seconds. Also
magnesium X count was relatively
high which I mentioned on air-to-ground.
And that the fact that it comes and
goes. Now I wouldn't expect loop
structures to come and go unless
there's really lots of activity
causing the material to rain down from
above and sporadically fill in
and empty a loop.

010 01 47 29 SPT Around tomorrow looks like a good


day from an observing standpoint.
The loops are part of the ... amount
over the limb but we'll get a
better look at that whole area.
Hopefully we'll end up with a
little flair probablity in - where
the •.• might climb up to at least
a tow or a three; I hope so. The
corona has also changed, mostly in the
way of an addition. At about 260,
270, 280, there is a fairly diffuse
streamer structure. I ... structure

010 03 05 42 CDR This is the CDR at 02:53. Having


gone on another photography spree I
_st now pay the piper. The
subject is Earth observations.
This was a pass that was ascending
up from over S-mntra to the southern
tip of Kamchatka. The first photos
taken were at 02:34. And this is
the first time we've seen the Malsy
Penisula almost in toto. There were
thin - thin cirrus over the Malay
Penisula but you could see the ground
underneath and pretty much see
the layout of things. This is
the HHI52 area so I took two frames
and hoped that we'll he able to
see through the clouds in the picture
and get some useful information on
landings to the Malay Penisula.
The frame numbers are 123 and 124 on
the Hasselblad i00, the magazine of
Charlie X-ray 51. The f/stop was
ii, 1/250. Then as we motored on
up over the coast of China, we had
an excellent overhead picture of
Hong Kong which I thought wan - was
taken with a Hasselblad. And that
was frame number 125, taken at
02:_0, the same settings, f/ll and
1/250. Then we got up over Korea.
And Korea was essentially clouded-over
and Japan, off to the east, was
fairly much clouded. I could see
where Sakamizimra - Sakurazima was
located. However the cloud - it
was covered over with clouds and I
could see no indication that the
smoke from the volcano was effecting
the clouds in any way. But, I did
note that the cloud - the clouds
appeared to be moving in the same
direction that the smoke was moving
that I've seen it on clear days. That
is, swinging down from the north, over
the top of the volcano, and then south
of the volcano swinging in a - in a
Dump Tape 010-01
Page I_ of 5

nice curve off to the southeast.


Going from north swinging - making
a curve and going to the southeast.
So there seems to be a prevailing
wind, at least for the last B or 4 days,
over that part of Japan blowing the
clouds in that direction. There's
no clouds blowing the smoke from
Sakurazima. Then as we moved on
up over northern Japan, the Tokyo area,
the picture - the angle was much too
oblique to get any kind of a good
picture. I took the binoculars and
did some looking for fault zones. And
I couldn't see really much of
anything, so I guess we'll Just have
to wait till we get an overhead shot
fo - of the Tokyo area and get a shot
when it's clear. As usual from the
southern end of Honsku on up,
the sewtern side of Japan is
covered with clouds. All the
mountain areas are completely clouded
over. The only part of Japan that
was visible was around the Tokyo area
and then up around the Saltla (?) Air
Force Base up in northern Japan. And
on the island of Hokkaido we saw
very - I saw very little land. I
started looking off toward Russia and
Sakhalin Island and the Sea of 0khotsk
and -that's not the right pronuciation
but that'll have to do. Noticed ice
beginning to form but no real ice packs
yet. I got a fairly good picture with
a Hasselblad, frame number 126, f/8
over - and it's 1/250. I took that
at 02:51. And it's up in the - in
the bay or the gulf between Kamchatka
and the Russian cit of Magadan. And
you could see the floes of - of ice
beginning to form. You could see the
long, serpentine indication that ice

F"
Dump Tape O10-O1
Page 5 of 5

was beginning to form in that gulf.


And I think I got a farily decent
picture of that. It's fairly low Sun
angle and fairly oblique. But
it's sort of a big picture and will
probably have started on our gathering
of data on ice formation in this
part of this country.

010 15 37 3h SPT SPT at 15:37, ATM pass which


began at the 14:38. We got
the two relatively short ex-
posures taken care of, building
block 32 and the single for 82A.

PLT Yeah.

CREW ... Yes, ... no.

CDR Whee! Thank you. (Laughter)


I_ Just occurred to me that you
don't have to ... lined up ...
maneuvers.

CREW ... maneuver time is in.

010 15 38 30 SPT Okay I spent this orbit trying


to locate loops. I plan to spend
a f_ir amount of time here the
rest of the day. And I thought
it would be worthwhile to try to
figure out what there really is
on the southeast limb. Again in
the XUV MONITOR I could see - and
first of all, I think the work loops
is perhaps the incorrect one; it
ought to he called arches. Because
I did not see large circles any-
where while resting on limb, but
rather arches.

010 15 39 08 SPT There are two locations that I was


the arches, above and below the HORI-
ZONTAL CROSSHAIR when I have a ROLL
of minus 1533 and the SLIT tangent to
the limb.

010 15 39 49 SPT Actually, 15 33 is not a correct ROLL


there. It's more - probably more like
1650, so this with ... should he
essentially equidistant between the
two of them. They're about an ARC
MINUTE above and an ARC MINUTE below.
Dump Tape 010-03
Page 2 of 12

010 15 h0 30 SPT And I was able to establish some


maximums. Unfortunately, that's in
oxygen VI and enon VII and some - a
little of magnesium X, I'll discuss
in a minute. But they were not coin-
ciding with the visible ones on the
SUV MONITOR. I did get a very - one
similar close to that in the XUV
MONITOR. In my ROLL of 1650 I better
not give you a good - I guess it'd be
somewhere between - I could give you
some better numbers here; let me think
a moment. I guess around 1540 would
probably do it, something somewhere
around in there would be - with the
two of them would be equidistant and
essentially the feet of the arches
would - would come together.

010 15 41 50 SPT First maximum arm located, I had


a ROLL of minus 1533, UP/DOWN of
minus 2 ARC SECONDS, a LEFt/RIGHT of
-- minus 1024, and today the limb is at
around 990, so tht puts us around'
34 are seconds off the limb. Oxygen VI
the maximum was around 270, i0 arc
seconds either way would bring that well
below 200; that's LEFT and RIGHT and
also UP and DOWN. Magnesium X was
around 300 at that location. So it
was very diffuse maximum, if one could
be established" at all. It Just
decreased very slightly in moving
inward towards the limb. But then
of course, we went back up.

010 15 42 56 SPT Also at that same ROLL, but in a


position of UP/DOWN of plus 12 and
minus 1038, I found a maximum - I
should say a maximum -

SPT We're reading for magnesium X up


around 200. At that point I went over
to look at neon VII. Watched the
neon VII line - 465 line - at a
grating of 2695.
Dump Tape 010-03
Page 3 of 12

SPT I ... the same ROLL of minus 1533,


an UP/DOWN of plus 12.

SPT A LEFt/RIGHT of minus 1028, I got a


reading of around 15. And again,
it's awfully hard to get a - a good
reading on this as the counts are very
noisy dand bouncing around but you have
to just kind of Judge the - the two
extremes and average. In this case,
I was getting some counts up in the
20's, as well some in the low i0. So
I call it 15, at 1033 and again at
1025, the average went down to around
12. By that I jusged I was getting no
counts at 20 and some below i0.

010 15 45 43 SPT Then again,as I went in further, of


course, I saw a loop brightening,
started bringing our counts back up
again. But there very definitely
was a maximu/n at that point, although
-- it was not the sharp contrast I was
really looking for. Another point
now, same ROLL, was minus 1553 and a
LEFt/RIGHT or UP/DOWN - excuse me, of
minus 38. I got a maximum at 1035
and 10h0, around in there they were
both reading 20. At h7, the count
had dropped down to 10h7. The count
had dropped down to 15 and at 1015
the count was down to 3. So very
definitely did hve one there. And I
think that's approximately the area
I'll be tending to work in the next
couple of orbits and try to get sc_e
good spectrum. I could randomly pick
out any one of these maximums and start
taking spectra, but I'm not sure you're
going to be getting - some of the better
data. So I have taken the time out
here to try to figure out here where
some of the maximums are and try to
map this thing a little bit. I must
still admit that I'm rather confused on
what I see in the XUV MONITOR. I find
\

Dump Tape 010-03


Page 4 of 12

it is extremely sensitive to the


integration time, the crosshairs
where you work the other crosshair
intensity Just below the visual ...
or not. And to some other random
factor which - It seems as though
the loops or arches, if you will,
always appear or ... That is, if I
point where the arch is, turn the
crosshair intensity all the way down
after I'm established I'm at the right
point, integrate the arch now seems
to stand out very well at that
location and it's always the opposite
one. So this is not as rational a
program as I'd like to see, needless
to say, but I will try to at least
establish a - a good maximum. I think
I'll work in neon VII, get us tangent
to the limb and then start working that
area for spectra.

the situation is over there. I still
have to admit it's not straightforward
at all. And I'll try to get - get
it a little better in hand on this

PLT I've lost it.

010 16 13 25 PLT Okay, now. Those marks were much


easier to take. What I did I make a -
made a well with that long strap.

010 16 13 31 PLT ANd then I hooked it over the - mount


for the bar for $90, S063. The point
is = ... knows there is anything in
particular to do with that - I held
myself over to the window. And with
my feet in the triangle shoes, there's
only a certain number of triangles I
can get my shoes in down here. And I
was having to lean forward and streach
my abdomins_Imuscles to hold myself
in position to make the mark.

010 16 13 59 PLT By making ... and pulling myself over


toward the window I was able to lean
the instrument against the window
and I think, make the marks much more
-- accurately. But whether theyrre more
accurate or not is - is subject ot
question. However, I will say this,
that it's much less fatiguing to do it.

010 16 lh 19 PLT And this emphasizes one of my previous


con_ents, in that body posture is a very,
very important thing in making the
mark, in gelng able to make them in =
with sc_e degree of comfort. I noticed
that much, much, much less Jitter of
the star, as I was taking the marks on
the limb, and much - and while I was
taking the null bias it was much easier
because the - it wasn't the Jiggling,
continuous Jiggling.

010 16 lh 45 PLT So I guess what I'm saying was the


2 point foot restraint; that is, having
both feet nailed down to the floor and
then having your body - the upper torso
of the body - more or less fixed. And
the way I fixed it was Just pull my -
_V waist over toward the window with
Dump Tape 010-03
Page lO of 12

a belt which is looped around a


fixture. And then by pressing the
instrument slightly against the
window, Just resting it on the window,
I was able to - to get a very, very
stable platform, much more stable than
the previous. Teh previous the thing
was Just Jiggling around and I was Just
sort of having it out to position.

OlO 16 14 2h PLT Okay, temperature on the instruments


is 73 degrees, now. And that was done
by the way, with filter 1.0 in. And
it was much - a bit more difficult to get
Aldebaran on the limb then with a
filter 1.6.

O10 16 15 h3 PLT And next orbit I'll try to get both of


them. PLT out.

010 16 15 50 PLT PLT again on teh T002. I didn't give


you the null bias. I started at 15:40;
68 degreeswas the temperature. 1.6,
teh diopter. And here is the null bias;
00038, 00035, 00033, 0003h, 00035.
PLT out.

01- 16 31 01 SPT SPT at 16:30, ATM. Okay, first started


with a ... and I'll be trying to get in a
couple of extra orbits, here. When I
talked with the crimson team last pm,
I understood that I was going to take
7 orbits today, except for those which
I was not going to tell them which one
I would be dropping out of. Right now,
I'm going to try to get in all seven.

010 16 31 34 SPT Apparently, the word got passed around


the other way; that I would tell you
which ones I would ts_ke, rather than
which ones I would be dropping out of.

010 16 31 46 SPT Okay, I continued this elusive search,


and I found another factor in looking
at the XUV monitor, which is a very
Dump Tape 010-03
Page ii of 12

obscuring factor. And that is that


we've got the little pick marks in the
center.

010 16 34 01 SPT And I'm sure, on more than one occasion


in looking for these arc structures,
that has led me astray. Because those
pick marks you don't see when you're
off the limb. But? the fact that they
i are there will obscure part of the
plage that you're looking at and,
therefor, make you think you're seeing
an arch when you're not. Realizing
that, I moved cc_apletely away frc@a the -
pick marks.

010 16 32 35 SPT And we're still able to see some


arch structure although the - it was
not as well defined, of course_ as I
had led myself to believe in any of
those pick marks very close to the
limb. However, there is still ...
something there, visually.

010 16 33 15 SPT And rightnow I am at s_ne plage which


has a mounted structure to it. I
would not say that the intensity
disappears as we go into telemetry
increase, but it certainly comes on very
abruptly. And then it's more or
less uniform, maybe degreasing a bit,
depending upon what the mind's eye
will see it in the flash of time that
you can get out of the integrate.

OlO 16 33 47 SPT What I have seen, however, and what I


am not working on, is a maximum in
neon VII, ... 65. The coordinates are
in a roll; a permanent ROLL of minus 153h.
An I/P/DOWN of minus 0020; left leg of
minus 1045, so that's almost an ARC
MINUTE off the limb.

010 16 45 41 SPT SPT again at 16:h5. Continuing


on with teh debriefing the orbit
which began at 18:10. Okay, I
finally started getting some data.
Let's see, I was pointing out
where we had the maximum in - neon
VII was a maximum of around 20.
Dropped off to maybe 15 going in
and ... abruptly to below i0 going
outward. And in UP and DOWN it took
around two GRATING STEPs to get it
below l0 in each direction. I did
maximize the A*D and MPC however.
In UP/DOWN it was a fairly diffuse
macimum, which it would be if it
was at the top of the - of the arch
structure. In LEI_2/RIGHT it would go
down below 10, the 1 step. Went down
to around l0 in one step and going
in took around two steps. UP and
DOWN took approximately two steps
in each direction. Throughout this
_- location55 got three GRATINGAUTO
SCANs, and I went all the way around
again to 2796. In th MECH REF. And
that - at that position then I started -
some GRATING or some - MIRROR AUTO
RASTERs. I got one down around to
line 20 and then one down to 13.
And I might add that had planned to
go much more extensively on this
orbit. We had to knock off some
RM with 18 minutes remaining or so.
As we realized that Bill Pogue came
up and said he had a maneuver to
make and all - at 44, and all of a
sudden there were 18 minutes when I
Just set up, and off we go into
CMG ATT HOLD and away from observations.
So I didn't really get the extensive
observations that I wanted to in
the way of data anquiasition. 82B
did get in a WAVELENGTH SHORT times
4 exposure. It was Just about
4

Dump Tape 010-04


_- Page 2 of 16

parallel to the limb. 54, I was


hoping to get in at least a 17-
minute exposure for them; I got in
a 15-minute and about an ll-minute
exposure for 56, SINGLE FRAME, 4.
So we did get something at a - at
a maximtun ; perhaps it was an arc
structure. But without nearly
continous daylight and a lot of
time to really work it, it sure
is tough to pin it down. I think I
initially was led a little astray
by the three marks in the XUV _DNITOR.

010 16 49 44 SPT But I don't think that was it


totally and think we do have some
type of arc structure there, but
it's Just not as well defined as I
hoped.

010 16 53 l0 SPT Well, SPT again. I neglected -


to add that at the beginning of this
_- orbit,the 18:10 orbit,we gave
52 some Sun-centered operations, a

I think 1 minute is pulling it -
calling it Just a tad tight on
changing the ROTATION. If there was
any problem with it I wouldn't have
made your first exposure time. I
think you ought to leave a little
bit more than 1 minute. I think
D_np Tape 010-0_

2 minutes probably is - is right.


In this case it was not much of a
crank to go, so it was okay; but
if there are several turns of the
crank to go, you probably ought
to give a little extra time. Okay.

CXll3, frames 38 through hS. And
I'll try to give you a little
briefing on what we see in each one
of these ccmpartments.

SPT Okay, in compartment l, seed A has


got a - a little curlicue root; maybe
about half the length of the seed
coming out. It looks to me like a
multiple of the large - the large
- fingercc_ing- comingout,and
then the root which is a rel -
relatively thinner curlicue structure
coming out. I don't see anything in
seed B - or C. Frame - compartment 2
of course does not have anything.
Ccmpartment 3; 3, seed A is the only
thing - well seed A and seed C both
have a very small smount of Just
budding at the very end of the seed,
but they do not have - the budding
was only maybe a quarter or so of
the length of the total see. Nothing
dynamic there. That's on seeds A and
C; seed B is nothing - nothing happening.

O10 17 15 59 SPT Okay, the real big performer here.


is in compartment h, seed B, seed
Bravo. Coming out of ther we have
two roots. They come out of the
side of the seed which is away from
the light. One extends all the way
up to seed A. That'll give you
the dimension there. You know the
separation of the. They were put
_ Dump Tape 010-04
Page 5 of 16

in fairly - It's a white-colored


root. Length to diameter maybe
20 to l, 15 to 1 perhaps. And
another root, maybe half that length,
half that dimension, coming out
going toward the outside wall and
toward C at about a h5 degree
angle or 50. That's parallel to
the back wall. I do not see anything
in the way of leaf structure, however.

SPT Compartment 5 has got seed Bravo, a


small root coming out, maybe about
one half the size of the seed curling
out. It looks as though it's going
to perform pretty well too. And that
is pointed towards the outside wall.
A and C have nothing; C is split.
Compartment 6 has got another bit
performer. Seed - seed Bravo, has
got pretty much - like the seed in
compartment 4, one long one which
is Just aboutthe distancebetween
the seeds and one about half that
aize. THey're - they came out
from the side away from the light and
then turn and go parallel to the
back wall. The shorter one reaches
toward C, the - the longer one reaches
out towards the outside wall at about
a h9 degree angle between the outside
wiall and the upper wall. And the end
is curled, and it's white.

we've got a very small bud coming out
of seed A, Delta headed toward the -
the side wall. Maybe about 1/3 or so
the dimension of the seed, and
it's a curlicue root type. I have
not seen any green structure whatso-
ever so far in any of the seeds.
Okay, in some we've gotten a real
big performance here. It's in the
center seeds, seeds Bravo in compart-
ment 4 and 6. It looks as though
they all pretty much get uniform
lighting, so it's surprising that it's
always seed Bravo. I'll go ahead and
I'm going to mount this thing again
and take a look at it. And if
I see anyting - any other clues as
to why those two are the better
performers, I'll get back with you.

010 17 46 37 SPT SPT at 17:46; ATM. WE started the


third one off with a building block 2.
We centered the WHITE LIGHT CORONAGRAPR
by making the ring around the occulting
disk symmetric. And that gave me
an UP/DOWN of plus 8 ... time 1 in
their scale, and a LEFT/RIGHT of
plus 60 and time of about 6 minutes;
6 in the time scale. I got the outer
DOOR to OVERRIDE, taking data. 56
is getting a PATROL NORMAL. And I
just got the GRATING back to zero
for 55, getting a MIRROR AUTO RASTER
now. Well 54, I believe, wanted to
be excluded, says what I copied from
the CAP CON_4.

SPT Okay, I'm thinking about what's going


to be done on the subsequent part
of this pass. I feel I ought to
finish up what I started with the
looking at the arches. I find that
you have to go back to the thing at
the same location and try to establish
that peak. I then if I do have
sufficient time I will try to get
both a one spectral data on that
location, and then also well in
above Sun center so that we can get
a background spectrum for 82B, and
roll in such a way that will imporve
the grating dispersion direction for
54. Try to get them a - at least a
iT-minute exposure there. That would
mean I would have to roll the -

010 17 50 17 SPT Well, now I got to think about this.

SPT Oh, boy, the same question we always


come up with: direction of dispersion
and axis of dispersion, what do
people really need? I'm looking at
our cue card, for 5h long exposure
film for this. Now, for example,
on 82A, relative to our displays
the direction of dispersion is
vertical, the axis of dispersion is,
in ... terms horizontal. I see
dispersion by rotating the - I doubt
if you wish for us to rotate about
the horizontal axis. Now what we need
over here in 5h? If that really
id the direction of dispersion, from
lowe left to upper right, then all
I'd have to do is to roll so as to
move the stability. Southwest active
region up a little but, that is roll
ot a more southerly latitude. Now,
while I'm doing it that's what it
is for the time being, until I get
to operate it. I'iitry and ask
a question or two on that before then.

010 18 01 36 SPT SPT again, ATM operatins. I've got


th 82B slit parallel - exactly

around 120. Where . .. were present
off the limb I see some evidence of
a remnant of a surge at the limb
inclined towards the north. I'll
keep an eye on it to see whether it
actually is changing with immediately
below our position towards the limb.
Okay, as I step the GRATING now, and
I step the MIRROR off my position,
I step up one, drops down to a
cound to around 80 from 100 and -
oh, about 120 or so. Now I step -
excuse me - excuse me - let me - let
me go back. WE're 933. I now step
down one, and our count goes down
Dump Tape 010-0_
i Page 9 of 16

to around 60 or so, 50 or 60.


Okay, if I step up back to 933, we're
at 120. I step up one more, an we're
at a reading around 90 - or 80.
And we do have a maximt_m there_ another
step takes me to around 50. So
we've got a maximum in UP/DOWN;
in otehr words, we've got atangent
to the limb. And now as we go LEFt/
RIGHT we're lookin at - a LE_ moving
me out one a way - away from the
limb, and that drops down to around
50 or 60. Go back to 933 and I'v
got a count of 120 again. And back
one more to the right, which moves
me toward the libra, and I'm down to
80 or 90. Another one moves me down
to 935, which gives me a count of
30 or _0. So, no doubt, we do have
a maximum there in the XUV MONITOR
as I look at that. It's in the
region, a plage coming aroung the
corner, although most of the plage
isnorthof this.

010 18 03 49 SPT But it very definityely is a maximum,


and there is an H-ALPHA manifestation
right below it. So I think I'll go
ahead and start the observation here
by giving some 55 GRATING informa-
tion. Here we are; I'm going to
MECHANICAL REF; we've got that
rolling. XUV SLIT, we got these
fellows going in, again, times
4 SHORT. And I do still plan to
roll about the Sun center. Okayg
they're going. Again, this is around
55 arc seconds off the limb with au
oxygen VI count of 120 or so. We'll
get 54 going right now. We got them
going first, but we timed it. I'll
take the longest here. Okay, on my
mark. My set GRATING is -

SPT GRATING is OUT.

010 18 04 58 SPT Okay, START. They're going. That


was at 3130 REMAINING 54, let's get
them going in a - try to get them
some termperature information as
well• See if I can't squeeze in
two SINGLE FRAMEs. Let's see, we
got 17 minutes, 16 minutes until I
•.. 4 and 5. Long, start on frame
40, and POWER OFF. And I'll start
our little timer here. Okya, now
keeping an eye on what we've seen
in H-ALPHA, we see something
in_nediately below this and let me
get out a scale, and I'll try to
give you a little better picture
here• We're about an are minute
off the limb/ this extends maybe
20 arc seconds off the limb. In
height and in length it's around
40 arc seconds long, and it's
inclined toward the north. We're
at the - the foot of it here and
about40 arc secondssouthof it -
south where we are, and it Just looks
like a ramp. The way pretty much
most of the bottom filled in
except up there at the very top of
the ramp as you move on down towards
the Sun the intensity drops off a
little bit. Maybe it's my imagina-
tion, but in intensity, if anything,
it's growing a little bit smaller.
These things do happen very slowly,
so I'll have to _ust keep an eye
on it.

SPT Okay, now whether we're actually


looking at a loop structure or not,
I'm not sure - not loop but - arc
structure. I can step aroud with
the mirror afterwards to find out what
really we are looking at. And what
I plan to do is to give a 55 two
GRATING SCANS and then one at a
MECH REF of 104, MIRROR - two MIRROR
AUTO RASTERs truncated. I'll Just
abot be able to squeeze it into the
time here.

010 18 07 52 SPT Then on the following orbit what I


would plan to do it go over and
take a look active region. I
take a look at active region 16
earlier today. Oxygen VI count
was only up to around 6000 or so.
Then ... how to point in H-ALPHA
Counter for the plage was down
around 3000. So that appeared to
be an active region visible on the
disk. It had the - the most going
for it in the way of intensity and
complexiyt. While we plan to do
subsequent orbits now, let's first
take a look at the limb here. See
where there's any activity in H-ALPHA
manifested. WEll, that was a
suprise. Let me explain what I Just
did. I had 55 going, GRATING 3 SCAN,
and I know it only made one full
curcuit and yet it stopped. I had
planned to let it og through the
second one - or through the first one,
then put it back to REF so I would
get two out of it. What I'll do now
is go on to REF and be starting.

PLT Lots of good weather today, Ed.

SPT Okay, I'ii - I'll continue on with


what I would do the following orbit.
Put sc_e ... Let's come over and look
at these two regions which - two
areas which have some hope of reason-
able time rates of change. That is
first of all, active region 16 and
also the H-alpha above active region 17.
If I do not see any appreciable
change or anything worth investing
further time in ther now.

CC Skylab, Houston. WE're A0S stateside

And I'll go ahead and try and get
those in. I felt that it generated
_-- a littlebit of interestover the -
this loop structure, which I think
I've been saying last night is really
an arch. I had to investigate it
while it was still on the limb. So
I'll finish this up and then working
on either the active region or the
limb again. And have a sort of
alternative.

SPT Okay, that was another call. I'm


working panel 200. at the same
time. 3 minutes remaining says
that I got to conclude 82B. So what
I'm going to have to do is to knock
off some of these observations. I've
only got 17 minutes and 50 seconds
remaining here. I'm going to have
to roll above Sun center. Oh, okya,
let me see what ... Make that at

CC Skylab, Houston. Sure appreciate


your help on the panel 200 breakers,
and we'er ssatisfied with the data
we got now. You can close them both
and - and go back to what you were
doing.

SPT Okay, Dick.

010 18 20 36 SPT The tlmeline was Just blow.

CDR Bill, can you get it open?

010 18 21 32 SPT Okay, SPT again. In looking at


the oxygen VI count, it's down
around h0 or 50, even as I step
around, so apparently what I
saw was more of a transient
nature than a permanent feature.
a

.- Dump Tape 010-04


Page 14 of 16

Okay, I guessed wrong. By that


I mean I should have been looking
at something with a high time
resolution rather than structural.

CDR Roger, Dick. Right now we're having


a camera orgy.

CC Roger.

CDR It's the neatest thing we've had


in weeks.

CC Hey, good.

SPT Okay, for some reasont the XUV is not


cut off. So the only thing I can
conclude is that the thing was
started not on the aux panel but
on the ATM Control and Display.

CC Just think how happy all those


Minnesota peopleare goingto be
coming to the Super Bowl down here
at this time of year.

SPT Okay, it stopped. So we've got


a long - one LONG exposure for 82B.

CDR Do you think they'll go away happy?

CC Who knows?

SPT 17-minut e exposure.

010 18 25 09 SPT Okay, SPT again at 17:25. Okay,


what it looked like - I really had
a transient going. That is what
appeared to be a remnant of a surge,
apparently was something which
was blowing off. And when I came
back to - to look at oxygen VI, I
found my count down there around
40 or 50 rather than what we were
up previously. So that 82B was
really looking at a transient.
Rolling about to get quiet background
f Dump Tape 010-04
Page 15 of 16

with ... tool much help. They've


really got a long exposure of
around 17 minutes ; make that
18 minutes. 54 got cut a little
bit short as I had planned to
roll, but Just got - I turned them
off as well as 56. I then got
waylaid with the work on panel 200.
I was requested to do and also
trying to figure out what we were
really looking at. So they got
a [sic] exposure. As best I gigure,
it was more closer to 14 minutes
instead of 8. 56 got one SINGLE
FRAME on 4, which was more like
4-1/2, 5 minutes. 55 got two
GRATING AUTO scans and two MIRROR
AUTO RASTERS, MIRROR AUTO RASTERS
down to around line 40. And - and
some - some additional data, which
I'll talk about now. Okay, right
now I am rolled so that the horizontal
.- slit is tangent to the limb and
I'm trying to get some consecutive
MIRROR AUTO RASTERS at a GRATING
POSITION of 104, MECHANICAL REFERENCE.
And getting a series of these. So
far we've got in two 56's receiving
a SINGLE FRAME 5, I hope for about
8 minutes. Well, even thoughwe've
got something kind of interesting
there, unfortunately it was
changing with time and some spectral
information was not really the thing
we wanted on it first and foremost.

010 18 28 41 SPT I think you probably got some useful -


some interesting data, but not -
not the optimum for the conditions.
Chansing those loops is - loops or
or arches is a very elusive and time
consuming thing, and I think as
long as we've got some other activity
on the disk, I'll stay away from
it for a little while. Okay, so
that's the way the - the orbit went.
It was trying to get some time
resolution data on what appeared to be
a little bit of a surge above the limb.

I took one of the Imperial valley,

a lake circulation pattern with a
large crater-structured area also
•.. in, and one or two frames of the
Gulf - two frames of the Gulf of

early going up the coast, showing
all the eddies off coast. That is the -
the surface circulation or flow
patterns off the coast, which sort
of looks like there's an offshore
wind, and then one a little bit
closer to Gulf of St. Lawrence. PLT -
oh also, let me give you the frame
count IR. And I'n not certain of
this, but I think I took h stereo
pairs, IR, of snow cover as we went
across, and those were correlated
with the stereo pairs that I took
with the Hasselblad. The first

be out of focus. Unfortunately I
had the thing centered at about 15 feet.

reminder that - that our photo folks
wanted me to pass on to you and that
is, when you take - our film and
pick out exterior photography using
L it, you ought to use, rather than
that infinity focus setting, you ought
to use the little setting that's with
a red R. WE're not sure whether the
R is red on the ring, or whether
there's a little red line next to
it with an R ext to it. But at any
rate, that one should be used rathe
than an infinity for exterior focusing.

010 20 21 40 SPT SPT at 20:21, ATM ops of the


orbit which I've Just completed.
Began around 19:15 or so. Okay,
I could - and Earth orbit, did
the no-EREP alternate, the one
beginning at 20:51. And I gave
55 the the maxi-raster. I was a
little unclear as to the positioning
you really wanted because it
was - the coordinates given were
not above active region 17; they
were a little farther north of it.
So I started out at the lower 2,
that's your number 2 and B. And
then waiting for word from ground,
I did not receive it in time; so
I went up and did 4 and 2 and then
came on down and did a few others.
So I'll - I'll give you the in-
formation now of ... was carried
out in detail. First pointing
was - I'll Just give you the
pointings, the UP/DOWN and LEI_f-RIGHT,
f- in that order. First one was minus 120
and minus llB0. Pointing 2, minus 0120,
minus 860. Pointing 3, plus 150 and
minus 860. Pointing h, plus 150
and minus 01130. Pointing 5, minus 390
and minus ll30. Pointing 6, minus 390
and minus 860. We essentially got
a 2 by 3. I had intended to go on
out to minus 120 and minus lh00, which
I actually did get to from pointing
:aumber 7. But of course, the counts
out there are so darn low and I was
only able to finish half a raster,
that I don't think they got too much
out there. You might have gotten
some - some information, however. I
think you certainly need, say 3
MIRROR, AUTO RASTER at least out

010 20 43 23 SPT SPT at 21:43 [sic], ATM ops. We're


Just beginning the orbit.

010 20 43 58 SPT And I got two plans in mind.


First, of course, is to -before
I think about any one of the
other - the two plan, is to get
the Sun center work done, building
block 32.

SPT The ... plans are - one is to go


look at the region above active
region 17 and see if I can see
any significant changes from when
I looked at it Just at the end of
last orbit. If there are changes,
then I plan to try to get some time
resolution data on it. If they're not
appreciable changes, then I'll pick
up one of the ... EREP alternate
plans. I Just got one this past
orbit and I may pick up another one
this one; we'll see.

010 20 45 09 SPT Okay, we're now at the Sun center.


And 52's DOOR is OPEN, are now
minus 5400. And as soon as I tweak it
in there, we w_ill be. Okay, that's good.
GRATING, I04. Might open up 82A/B
and XUV MON DOOR. Turn on the WLC
CONTINUOUS MODE. And I'll set up
1 minute on this timer. It's too
easily to get - I found that if I
don't use it, I get easily distraced.
I can let me run it out a minute 20.

010 20 46 ll SPT 0kay, 52, START; and 56 PATROL, SHORT


is started. And I might as well
start 55 on the MIRROR, AUTO RASTER
while we're waiting here, GRATING
POSITION of 104.

010 20 47 l0 SPT (Tone) 52's time out. Past a minute;


we're stopped. Looking at the
Dump Tape 010-06

k/'_ Page 3 of 8

X_/V MONITOR. I did not see any


one active region standing out
above the other in intensity.
,Fney all show up without inter-
grate. No hot spots. Active
region 18, however, has got two
plage; very small, but two. Okay,
we're ready to go. We've got down
to line 24, 455. And I think we'll
take a look at the WLC before we
move.

SPT A stresmer structure at 230, 2h0.


Hasn't changed, Just ever so slightly.
It looks as though the streamer is
getting a little broader at the base.
STill a very elongated helmet
streamer, if you will. Maybe helmet
:is not the appropriate term for it,
but it's - is -because I always
associate the helmet with being down
closer to the disk, but this still
has the shape, but very elongated.
_-_ And the spikewhich we've ta1_ed
about at 230 is still here. The helmet
streamer itself is centered over
.around - 2h0. And an interesting
correlation that whenever anyone
Jumps up and down on the treadmill
down there, I can see a fairly amount
of debris go by. Maybe that's Just a
•.. Just to drive it off of somewhere.
No real appreciable change in the WLC.
It's very subtle ones which I think
we're catching fro_ orbit to orbit
which is building block 32.

010 20 50 21 SPT TV OFF; back to STANDARD; DOOR,


CLOSED; going over to the limb.

SPT [take all - first of all I look at


active region 16. Now when I
looked at it earlier today, we had
the northwest plage still there and
intensities now are only around
1000 or 2000 in oxygen VI. Does
not look very hot at all. Also when
Dump Tape 010-06
Page 4 of 8

I turn down the HOAlpha intensity,


it does not appear very hot; no
bright points at all, Just a plage
which runs north-south has the
brightest. That's on the east side
of the sunspot. The sunspot is
self appears to be slightly eroded
on the southern - south - south
side. 1300 max, oxygen VI, not too
much. Now let me cut off some of
the lights in here so I can get a
better look at HOALPHA 1. The
region on the limb. Thought I had
to bring the light intensity down,
CONTRAST down and BRIGH'I'_S up on
the scope in order to keep the
features off the limb. Yeah, there
is the region of which I've spoke
before as surge, on previous orbit.
I Just go _,,,ediately above it, see
I can find anything like that 200 we
were looking at before. Now most
of the count is about an arc minute
off or so now. MOstof the count
is 50, 60, 70. However, it has
certainly changed shape on it.
Before, it looked as though something -
I always reminds me of pulling out
taffy. Where all you get to see is the
bottom half and the picture of the
top half is Just stretched out and
disappeared. What I'm doing now is
about an arc minute off. I'm Just
rolling slowly about Sun center,
watching oxygen VI. However,
H-alpha certainly has changed.
Counts here are 20, 30, 40.

010 20 5_ 2_ SPT Okay, I got a count of around 120,


a little north of that. Let me
take a look at H-ALPHA 2.

SPT Okay, it was a little far south there.

010 20 55 13 CC Skylab, Houston. we're AOS Honeysuckle


for 8 minutes.

SPT Falfway, I can see a spot there


very, very clost to the limb.

i
Dump Tape 010-06
Page 5 of 8

It may well be the active region.


()kay, now I think I got a better
location. I will -

SPT ()kay, I got the idea. I think what


I'll Just do is roll horizontal sllt -
IIORIZONTAL CROSHAIR tangent to the
"Limb.

SPT ()kay, 30 arc seconds above the limb.


I'm getting counts of a lO0.

SPT 60, and still counts of a i00.

SPT ()kay, we still have same counts


above the limb of about a i00. Ok_,
what I plan now to do is to try to
get -scme time where I can change
data above the limb. Those were on
:Line i0; I would say that was 55 arc
seconds we can go if we put the
HORIZONTAL CROSSHAII_S right on the
limb, so I can go out a little bit
farther.

SPT That was on the limb at 976. And


that's about a 1000 off. 30, we are
at a I000.

010 20 59 01 SPT Okay& MIRROR, AUTO PASTER's going.


Now I'll truncate the MIRROR, AUTO
RASTER. Let me see, when you get
the long exposures in here, I'm
afraid 82A - B not in an optimum
position or 82A on this time around
for exposures - 54.

010 20 59 4h CC :3kylab, Houston. We got about


3-1/2 minutes left here at
Honeysuckle. We' re going to be
turning it over the ... team at the
end of this pass and you guys have
been awarded a frestiguous award ...
for such a fine - fine Job.

010 21 03 08 SPT ()kay, we have now started 54 in a


17-second - or 17-minute exposure. And
a 56 in a SINGLE FRAME 4 for l0 minutes.
Dmnp Tape 010-06
_/-_ Page 6 of 8

SPT Okay, for 54, however, I could leave


this running, take as long as possible
it'll work. So, I'll go ahead and
do that. And we'll see what that
turns out to be. I've given a
MIRROR, AUTO RASTER down to line 40.
First is to start so that people
would see what we - 55 people could
see what we've got to look at down
there, all the way in. And now I
want you to start making truncated
MIRROR, AUTO RASTERs and line 15
probably is about a good one. Now
we're at 16. Showed them that because
I think we - we need at least standing
order to cover the scale of what I'm
seeing on the XUV MONITOR. And I
have pointed off the limb about
20 arc seconds or so. So, that's
about a 4 plus l0 - that's 14 to get
us through - down to the limb and an
extra two or so Just to help to find
/-_ where we are. All l'm sure is the ...
one position, there should he no
problem doing that. There's the
centered rate on the activity which
I see in the XUV MONITOR. The wind
activity.

OlO 21 05 48 SPT Okay, we had started 54 at 41:17,


time remaining.

TIME SKIP

010 21 24 38 SPT SPT again at 21:2_. Okay, we left off


at this orbit, where it's on ATM
operations, where we were doing
consecutive MIRROR, AUTO RASTERs
down to line 16. Which we did; we
got in eight of them. By then
backed off and - in the H-ALPHA 1 I
Just zoomed out and started to watch a -
what I regarded pre - previously as a
surge, but which had settled down
and find it turns out to be an active
Dump Tape O10-06
_ Page7 of 8

prominence, at least that's the way


NOAA has Just reported it. I back
off and looked at that and it changed
form from what I had seen originally,
and I thought that it was pretty much
on the edge of the field of view of
55. It - it isn't at all, I guess it
was probably Just about on the edge.
So rather than Just take the center
of the XUV brightening and also what
amounted to be a fairly hot spot, I
elected to try include this in also,
so I stopped the scan and rolled
slightly to place the MODE about
Stm center and place the MIRROR,
AUTO RASTER slightly south and now
we will continue on picking up data
there. I realize that you do like to
get time data all at one location;
that makes it much easier to follow.

010 21 26 15 SPT However, this is - the thing is, we're


excluding what I thought was a - a
fairly interesting phenomena from your
field of view and not a ... in there.
And that's what we are doing right
now. We've got up to 6 at this location.
And we also have 56 getting a SIN(_.E
FRAME, LONG.

CC Skylab, HOuston, we're AOS at Goldstone.


We have you for 6 minutes. And, Ed,

010 21 47 55 SPT SPT at 21:48, Just to conclude the


discussion on this past ATM orbit.
We gave 55, 15 truncated MIRROR, AUTO

which included the active prominence.

FRAME 2 for only 4 minutes. 40 SS.
ANd 50 - at 5h unfortunately when I
moved I did not advance their film so •
they have gotten themselves a double
exposure there and again I 'm sorry
for that. What I'm going to have to
do is to take that operate light going
all the time whenever I have that
', thing running. Then it's too easy
to overlook, we've formed so darn
many habit patterns up here in -
trying to breaking them has proven
more difficult than I would like so,
sorry I did not get to you a
LONG EXPOSURE on that one. At least
we gave you one but it has a ROLL
and center that which - I realize is
going to make this not very useful

010 23 02 32 CDR Now this is the CDR at 23:02 confessing


my complicity in the great photo orgy
of day i0. My first entry onto the scene
was at 18:14 with the Nikon 300 and this
_Ls an ascending pass from Northern
Baha California up through the Gulf of
St. Lawrence. And I took a few 300s.
At 18:14 we came up on the northern
coast of Baha, California, which is the area
HHIII, and for Lee Silvers I got 4,
300-millimeter Nikon pictures from
- it's on Charlie X-ray 39. Today's
frames are ii through 8. Now frames ii
and i0 are photographs of the two
volcanic areas which make up area number
4 that you're interested in, Lee.
The first one was up around San Quintin
8rid the second one was down south of it.
_ld one of the questions you asked is
to compare the two volcanic areas.

010 23 03 50 CDR Well, I've compared them now photo-


graphically for you and l've- I gave
you an observation about a week ago and
I hope I get another whack at it. I'd
like to look it over a little closer
and Just kind of concentrate on those
w_lcanic areas. And the next two frames,
which are number 9 and number 8, were
taken of the Aqua Blanca fault. And what
I did is I took right where the K - where
the cross fault is there. I took one
picture that Just barely included that
amd was tp - was to the west of it.

010 23 04 23 CDR And then the next picture overlapped


right at that cross fault and extends off
to the east.

010 23 04 28 CDR So - so one of the questions as I remem-


ber that you are asking is: How far
east does the Aqua Blanca fault go?
And, again, that's something I want to
look at now. I think I've got good
photographic coberage of it. Both -
all four those photographs were taken at
Dump Tape 010-08
Page 2 of 3

5.6 and i/i000. Okay, at 18:16 we came


over Pheonix, Arizona, and that's HHIO1-8
and I took frame number 7 there at the
same settings - 5.6, 1/1000. Then at
18:21 we came up to Lake Superior and
the area which is HH155-6 is clear so I've
got a photograph of that, and that's
•frame number 6, and my photo mainly
shows the - the formation of ice on the
northern shore of Lake Superior.

O10 23 05 20 CDR At 18:22 I got a whack at Lake Huron and


ice formation there, and that's frame
nl_mber 5. Again, all these frames are
5.6, 1/1000. And then at 18:25 and 26,
we came upon the Gulf of St. Lawrence,
and I took 3 photographs right in the
area of HH45 and you may be able to
get some stereo out of that, in at
least of the overlap areas, and ice is very
definately forming south of the island
there in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and we're
_-- getting some good picturesof that.
Bill has got some good Hasselblad stuff
_hich I'm sure he's already reported.

010 23 06 09 CDR Okay, then on the next rev was - again


by this time I got the Hasselblad; I
wrestled it away from Bill - and at
19:52 I took 2 pictures from the norhtern
ead of the San Joaquin - Sacramento Valley -
I beg your pardon - looking north along
the North Sea area - and the Cascades
and I saw 2 very large mountains up to
the north, all snow-capped and everything.

010 23 06 38 CDR And I'm ass_m_og those are Mount Ranier


and Mount Adams, and a nice round lake
south of them which I ass_me to be Crater
Lake. That's down around Bend, Oregon.
And I'm pretty sure that's what those
are. Those are frames 148 and 149 of
the Hasselblad. And they were taken at
F/ll, 1/250. And then at 19:54 Just out
of the side of the window I was astounded
to see that the Salt Lake is red and
green. You know that railroad Causeway
that goes across the Lake and essentially
r

_-_ Dump Tape 010-08

cuts it in two. The northern half of


the lake - the northwestern half of the
lake - is very bright red - or I should
say magenta. A very definite red. And
this other part of the lake - the south-
eastern part of the lake is a very strong
green.

010 23 07 28 CDR This picture, frame number 150, taken


at F/ll, 1/250. Then at 20:00:07 I got
another picture of the Gulf of St.
Lawrence. The same area that I took the
Nikon picures in and this is frame
number 151 and a setting of 8 plus.
That's between 8 and ll at 1/250.

out of the MDA so they could use it for

I took the suggestion to them by
ground which is a good one, to go to
2B, 24, 34, I believe, I don't recall the
exact number of the position on the
gratings, but, I get silicone XII and
• .. 7. And I lifted the limb again. This
time I did a maxi-raster, a sequence for
three rasters, which covers that portion
of the limb, which we had. I did them
down to line 50. I started out with the
horizontal crosshairs, that is around
line l0 about 5 arc seconds above the
limb. And the specific coordinates of
tlhese rasters are first, a ROLL of minus
639, an UP/DOWN of plus 1016. And for
• tlhe first one the LEgT/RIGHT was plus 36,
tlhe second one was a LEFT/RIGHT of

Sun had set pretty well; it was about -
about 2-1/2 minutes to 3 minutes after
sunset. Took the first frame 60 seconds
at 15, the second frame was 120 seconds
at infinity and the third was again 60
seconds at 15. The time between frames
was about 20 seconds on the average for
changing. We're looking on the same

I had hoped to work in the Z-LV EREP

the tail is shortened very little

5 to 6 degrees in length, using

fainter and fainter, of course;
finally loose sight of it. And
the - however, by sweeping the eye
back and forth, you can pretty well
make it out, at least as far as the
impurity of the eye is concerned.
So l'd still estimate the -the
length a minimum of 5 degrees

depends on the individual eyeball
looking. The coma is still -

the visual magnitude concerned,
Just after sunset. Had difficulty
seeing it; had to get dark -
dark adapted before I could
actually pick it up visually. So
the magnitude or brightness is
waining. I don't think it's due
to distance, but, anyway, the
length still remains about the

011 14 50 08 CDR This is the CDR at 14:50 Zulu,


with a debriefing on the 13:56
- ATM pass. The JOP 6 buildingblock
IA/B went without any great problems.
Whistled right through that, got
the data that was required. And
the TV downlink, managed to get
quite a bit of XUV MON on it. And
right at the tail end of it we
finished up the CONTINUOUS MODE
of' WHITE LIGHT CORONOGRAPH, and
I threw sc_e of that on.

011 14 50 50 CDR The r_nainder of the stuff there


was no big problem; everything
went as planned. Right near the
end of it I was notified by the
ground that it looked like a surge
or something had lifted - that there
was something going on over about
250. And so as soon as I finished
the TV downlink work, that WHITE
LIGHT CORONOGRAPH, I closed that
up and whistled over and took a
look at the area around 250 and,
s11re enough, there were two small
_-- surges. One had completely listed
off and was above the limb and the
other one was on the limb and
narrowing at the neck, necking down
at its connection at the limb.

011 14 51 32 CDR So I did a building block number 3,


_.Lth the SLIT parallel to the
limb, on the first one that had
s_Lready listed off. And it nowhere
near filled the SLIT. So tthe center
of the SLIT's got that on it, and
then the ends of the SLIT are
quiet.

011 14 51 51 CDR And - and then I whis - went


down to the other one, which was
about, oh, about 150 arc minutes
on south along the limb from the
first one. And it had also necked
down considerably since the last
time l'd looked at it. So I did
Dump Tape 011-03
Page 3 of 8

f- a buildingblock - or a shopping
list 3 on that as well,and during
shopping list 3 it actually did list
off. That is, the - the necking
down; it finally separated from the
limb and was sort of a little
wedge or a triangle above the limb.
I imagine there's probably a lot
of connection there that we Just
couldn't see, but from - you know
Just the displays I had, we - I did
see it necked down to the point to
where it was no longer connected to
the limb. Again, that was awfully
small, too, and it came nowhere
near close to filling the SLIT.
And you got quiet background, I
think, above and below that thing.
We were rolled again parallel to
the - to the limb.

011 14 52 56 CDR Then as soon as I finished those


two things - I had about 9 minutes
left, so I whipped over and got
JOP 12 Charlie done. And that takes
care of the S082B calibration.
But because I did the shopping list,
%,._did not get the S055 calibration
done. You may have to ask somebody
else to do that a little bit later
_I the risky. That's about it. I
think rather than debrief over -
describe what I see in the Sun
on the - the tape recorder here,
I think I'll Just pass the word on
ti_e alr_t0_ground and then I'll
secure.

And let's first tasb about the


](LW'MDN. Active region lh, 15,
16, oh, 17, and 18 are quite plain.
The lh in XUV M0N had the brightest -
the brightest area in it this morning.
And I did not get a chance to go
exDlore it at all and - and see what
any of the oxygen VI counts were.

011 lh 56 36 CDR The south pole - the coronal hole at


the south pole is more - much more
evident today than the one at the
north pole. The north pole coronal
hole is - is smaller; the one at
the south is quite a bit larger. I
see a hole at about 300 on the limb
coming in; it's Just to the northwest
of the active region 18, which I
believe is the weak region that
we've been looking at.

011 lh 5T 17 CDR The - the spot for - or I should


-_ say Just below that - that hole,
small coronal hole or whatever
that is. It's - it looks like it's
too big and - and round to be a -
a filsment chanel. There is a
brightening on the limb right below
that, which is - this is above 17
and - and those that are coming
around the limb • so it may be that
we'll have an active region in a
day or two showing up there. But
we have Just a - Just a hint of a
bright area beginning to show up at
about 280 on the limb.

011 lh 57 57 CDR That's about all I can make of this


that's of - of any great interest.
I might add that the west - or the
eastern limb brightening - wait a
minute; I got my east and west missed -
mixed up again. That coronal hole I
was talking about was northeast of
active region 18. It's on the limb,
at about 290 to 300 on the limb, and
then this little bright area that I'm

f
_- Ik_p Tape 011-03
Page 5 of 8

t-'[king about that's showing on the


llnb is below that to the south at
about 280, something like that, on
the limb. And I might Just add that
the whole limb, the whole eastern
llmb, is - is brighter than the
western limb, and - and there's a -
some brightness in the east limb
all the way down toward the coronal
hole at the south. And that's about
it on the XUV YEN.

011 lh 58 54 CDR On the WHITE LIGHT CORONOGRAPH, the


spike that we had been watching at
300 is pretty much gone now; it's
pretty diffused. The whole east llmb
has a wide diffused streamer area;
the streamer down at about 240 is
wide. It looks like it's got -
you could a]most say there's three
points in it, but not quite; it's -
it's a very wide point. Down at
about 250 it dips - it dips there
_-- and then starts building back out again
by 270 back out to another spike.
M11ch - much enhanced area there,
2l_0 to 270.

011 12 59 39 CDR (hrer on the other limb out at


sl)out, oh, 070 to 090 there are -
it's a wide diffuse area, but
there's sort of a gap between the
two ends so it looks like you kind
of have two wide streamers, two
_.Lde points, and a gap in between
them. That's nowhere near as bright
or as extensive as all of the
streamer activity over on the east
limb. I see nothing - nothing
of interest up in the area of 300
to 360, and the area frc_ 090 down
tZhe 180 is - is rather a quiet area,
too.

011 15 00 21 (DR CDR out.

011 15 03 52 SPT Today let's talk about what some of


these objects I have have in cr_mon.
Dump Tape 011-03
Page 6 of 8

Screwdriver, pair of scissors,


rec'order, for that matter, the TV
camera. Each one of those has a
quality and that quality is dependent
upon the material from which they are
made. That's true for most things
that we work with. Up here at Skylab
we plan to study a little bit the
techniques with which these things
are made, in particular solids and
how they cool, how they are formed
frc_ a liquid, and how they actually
became a solid.

011 15 04 _8 SPT It's in this phase in going fr_n a


liquid to a solid, in which the quality
of the material is determined to a
large degree. In psm%icular, if we
look at say, silicone crystals
which transistors are made frc_,
which is the heart of this TV camera
and the electronics industry, we find
that as they cool, the gravity which
we have down there on Earth, in
which every transistor so far has
, been made in the presence of, we find
that the gravity tends to make the
wanner ot the hotter material move to
the surface as it is cooling. Ss_e
thing happens in your h_ne.

011 15 05 33 spt If you notice your second story is


aSways a little bit warmer than
your first. All the heat is up the
ceiling. The same thing happens in
a solid. Whether it be of metal or
c_stal. Now this convection tends
to create very small real-uniformities
in the material. Mal-uniformities can
change the properties and usually
degrade it. Also we find that con-
tamination could come from a con-
tainer which you cool the solid in.

Oll 15 06 l0 SPT For exs_ple, if you have a vase of


metal, you cool it; you find that the
conts_ination frc_ the side, from the

F
r Dup Tape

"__" _ walls, from before, will decay the


: properties of the material. Whereas
here, we don't have that problsm.
We're able to essentially take
:'" a bath of siquid, hot, let it cool,
with no conts_ination from the side,
and no convections to ch-n_e its
properties. We're goint to be
studying a little bit in the next
COuple of days one particular way
."_ ': of forming crystals, which
Dr.. JOhn Caruthers, one of the
people working in the field right
now, feels is a very pr_sing way
in which to grow crystals with
exceptionally pure, uniform
properties.

011 15 07 07 SPT This will enable us to create


much smaller crystals, or much
smaller transisters if you will,
m_ch smaller circuitry, and we
_- think make a [sic] improvoment
in the electronics industry.
HOwever what we're going to be
doing has application in many
fields: Just plain study of
fluid mechanics in zero g. I think
you'll - what you'll see is going
::- to be fun and it's also got some
_ _" very basic applications. The
way we're going to be doing is
that this homsmade device here,
that we have is taken and use
mounts, i, 2, 3, 4.

011 15 07 56 And these mounts are pretty much


the same as hold up the TV camera;
line thsm up taking some of our
tools, which are extension shafts
for some of the bits that we have.

011 16 24 26 SPT SPT at 16:24, debriefing ATM pass which


began at 15:27. We found the right
location to work today. Even though
the position of 250 degrees, 0.I radii
does not have a great deal of XUV,
nor anything showing in the X-ray
MONI_)R, it certainly has manifested
a lot of change in the H-ALPHA. This
morning before I got to the panel,
apparently Jerry saw a surge lift
off. When I got here, the material
had reattached to the ... That is,
what Jerry saw was a wedge, with
the point at the surface. This
is at a ROLL of 250. And the
surge inclined at about 45 degrees
... the surface. When I got here
and looked at it at 15:30, the
material was reattached and in
the course of 20 minutes that
material was ... extending up
30 degrees ... something on the order
of i0 degrees. But towards the
end of the orbit it looked as though
it was boiling up for another one
and ... become a little more intense
in H-ALPHA and to extend out a
little bit.

011 16 26 03 SPT So nmybe we have another surge going.


Okay, we started the orbit with a
building block 32 and we ended the
orbit with a building block 32. At
the end I did not get a PATROL SHORT
in, however. We were just tight on
time, I managed to get the exposure
for _%C exactly with 1 minute
remaining, at ROLL of 5272. We did
building block 23, although there
were some deviations which, of course,
some which you inserted and some which
I thought necessary to put in. And
I'll take it instrument by instrument.

011 16 26 55 SPT Starting at the top, 56 received three


exposures, 13 minutes each, on frames

4, 5,. and i. So, we gave two


extra in there. 82A received a
WAVELENGTH SHORT for 20 seconds,
after a call to the ground to see
what their thoughts on it were.
And :[ will do this in the future if
I am in ground contact. If I'm in -
not in ground contact and we had
a case like today, I most likely
would have gone ahead in taking it.
82B received their first 9-second
exposure, 20 arc seconds off the limb.

011 16 28 07 SPT Then I started into their long


35 second. The original pointing
was chosen so that I could - center
the SLIT right over the region which
was _oming out with the activity,
that is around 250. But, unfor-
tunately, that did not cover the Jet,
which was moving out, nor this
diffused material which I have described
on the air to ground. The top of the
SLIT - the top one quarter of the
slit, did cover that diffused
material. That diffused amterial
was of a shape of the - rather in
two - two sections to it, about
20 are seconds off the limb, about
20 src seconds in extent above the
limb, so that makes it go about h0 -
from 20 to 40 and about 20 arc seconds
in length, that is up/down, if you
wil_, if you're looking at it with
the SLIT tangent to the limb, and a
partition between the upper and lower
half, which was connected on the
right-hand side. So that's all in
H-ALPHA, so I don't think I need to
describe that too much further. Now
once the Jet had gone back down and it
looked as though the limb had simmered
down,, I bad second thoughts. That
ROLL was also at about 1200 - 12 - 1204 -
minus 1204. And had I thought a little
bit more about it at the beginning
I would have put the SLIT right over
that diffused material, like we ended
Dump Tape 011-05
Page 3 of 22

up doing. But, again, that's hind-


sight. So 82B's second exposure
was one which went for 18 minutes
8/nd 30 seconds to which - with the
top i/h of the SLIT on the bottom
edge of the diffused material. And
then they received another exposure
of 1'5 minutes and 30 seconds in which
they were centered on the material
in ROLL and on the bottom of it in
distance from the limb.

011 16 30 50 SPT That was stopped at hOOK. Now 55


received lots of MIRROR, AUTO RASTERS.
I deviated a little bit. We started
at GRATING position of zero. That'w
where I was initially and when I go
there, I didn't know how fast things
were changing so I - I thought I better
start there ... which the program
called for. So you got about 3-1/2
MIRROR, AUTO RASTERs at that position.
Then we wnet and got one MIRROR, AUTO
RASTER at 23 - 24:3_. This is all
OPTICAL REF, now. That went down to
line 50. And then two more truncated
down to - down to line hO. We went
to u** GRATING position 29 - 26 and
gave two MIRROR, AUTO RASTERa, truncated
down to line 30.

011 16 31 51 SPT I believe there's probably a little


bit more in there than I have Just
called out. I found it difficult to -
to keep track of them - and trying to
work the other instruments and with
our RASTER SCAN counter not giving
me an accurate count.

011 16 32 04 SPT So, that's a low estimate of - which


I'w._ just given you. The optimum
way_, of course, to observe that one
woufLd have been with the - for 55
purposes - would have been with the
truncated MIRROR, AUTO BASTERs with
the horizontal SLIT tangent to the
limb. But. _e could not have gotten
82A data. All i__. Again, from this
Dump Tape 011-05
Page h of 22

particular situation it sure would


be good if we couldhave thosetwo
instruments rotated 90 degrees, relative
to one another. And if we ever see
something like this again, it would
be useful to have the instruments -
perhaps one could be rotated relative
to another if - if any uncertainity
about which is the best position
initially. Someday I'd like to talk
more about that whole subject.

011 16 33 03 SFT 56 received 3 of the LONG EXPOSURES,


that is M, S, O, L, 64. We had time
for about a half of one at the end
but I did not start it, not knowing
your druthers on part of a sequence.
Probably could have gotten you a
third, not a half. So, I did not go
ahead and do that. Of course your X-ray
exposures corresponded to the same ones
that 56 got in time. Their order,
howe_er, was for the 4, 5, and 1.

were taken on mad CIll3; frames
h8, _9, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, and 55.
Okay, give you a quick description
here. We got a little more growth.
Compartment number l, seed Alfa.
Seed A has got a - something coming
out and it, again, is away from the
light in which it's coming out. It's
root like. Curls out towards the top
of the container and then towards -
starts moving towards the front of
the container, that is towards the
light. Seed Bravo has done nothing.
Seed Charlie is - oh, Charlie has
not done anything either. It's split
and I might - there might be a
possibility of a very sm_ll root coming
out one side, but that's hard to
distinguish. There is something there,
however, Just a little dummy on the
top, but ti doesn'tdoesn'tlook like
an ex - a root at all. And about 1/_
the size of the seed. Compartment 2,
we have nothing. Compartment 3, we
have out of seed alfa - we have one
small curlicue root maybe - making a
360 and extending no more than a quarter
of the seed diameter. Seed Charlie
has got lengthwise and the seed is -
root is pointed toward the back of
this it's container and seed alfa is
pointed toward the top. And that's
the root. Seed Bravo, nothing. Okay,
let's go over to seed - or compartment
four where we got a big - bit performer.
Alfa is doing nothing and Charlie is
doing nothing, but Bravo is really -
really growing here. We've got the root
structure coming out of it's seed at
the end away from the container - away
from the front of the container, that
is away from the light. And there is a
large root structure protruding off -
Dump Tape 011-05
Page 6 of 22

/i... which goes all the way past bra -


seed Alfa now. It went up to it
yesterday; now it's passed it.

011 17 04 29 SPT And it has reached the top of the


container where it has butted up
against it and has just curlicued
a little bit. It ia all white. I do
not see any leaves. There is another
root which has come the bottom of
the seed, which is again the back of
the container. And that one I have -
is very thin - relatively thin compared
to the others and it's moving towards
the right-hand side of the container.
And it's Just butted up against the edge
and not done anything else. Okay,
compartemnt five, it's got a curlicue
one coming out of the top of Alfa
towards the top of the container.

011 17 05 12 SPT Bravo is - the seed is pointing so


that it goes toward the side of the
container - toward the left-hand
_-- side and the root structure is about
one seed-length long. It's all
white. I notice that some of
these I can see the root has got
a more of a translucent white. And
then as you get closer to the seed
all - all of a sudden turns to a
more opaque yellow and looks a little
thicker. I imagine that's the way it
grows. Not sure with the seed Bravo
in compartment five. Seed Charlie is
split.

011 17 05 51 SPT Compartment six we've got another


big performer. The - coming out of
the bottom of six, that's the back
of the container, the root goes
45 degrees towsrds the top and
right-hand side, a little bit towards
the front now as towards the light,
maybe only 30 degrees. And the
top drove three seed-lengths long
and the top is spiralled around,
,o , "

Dump Tape 011-05


Page 7 of 22

maybe, oh, about 2 turns, very


_" tightlywove - woven. The other -
it's coming out of bot - also out
of the bottom but going off towards
the bottom and right-hand side is
a very thin, crooked, jagglie root,
unlike the others. And that is -
that's only about on seed - a seed
and a half length long.

011 17 06 45 SPT Okay, over in compartment seven, we


have coming out seed Alfa a root where -
let's see it's at the top of the
container and the - the root is about
3/_ of a seed long and it's - it's
got s. curlicue at the end, I believe.
It's kind of tough to see the exact
detail, but it's kind of bunched up
there at the end. Yeah, it's curlicue.
And that is just going parallel. It
came out of the top and went - and
headed down and back a little bit,
that is a little bit away from the
light. Bravo and Charlie doing
_ nothing. Over in compartment 8,
eitht, they've got two, seeds and -
I'll be durned, we got two seeds also
in A - in Charlie. Somehow I
managed to get two seeds in
there, but not in A. Wonder what
the beck happened there. I had a
little bit of trouble with that
ejector at the beginning. Oh, well.
Such is life. Sorry about that.
Okay, nothing really happening in
compartment eight. There is one
small bud coming out of the - one
seed towards the front of the
container in eight.

011 17 08 19 SPT Let Ee explain to what we got.


In Alfa, there's only one seed.
Bravo, there's one - there's 2 seeds.
And in Charlie, it looks like
there's 2 seeds. The one in the
front is split. The one in the
back I can't see too well.
Dump Tape 011-05
Page 8 of 22

Nothing coming out of either one


if _ of those. In Bravo we've got just
a small bud, which I've mentioned
which is - it's really nothing
but a little nubbin on there. So,
to recap, the real big performers
are in compartment three and four
surprisingly enough. I'm sorry, 3 -
or, ]4and 6. They're both on the
same side.

frame 63 down to 61, f/ll, 65 millimeter,
1/250.

SPT The subject was the Great Lakes, and


first one showed Lake Michigan. And
again I noted the clouds which tended
to form right along a ridge which went
righ_ down the center of the lake.
That is , the ridge running north/south.
This ridge ex - continued to extend
righ-_ over the city of Chicago. And
it was a little east of the city of
Chicago and tended to spread out on
either side. So it covered that ciy
pretty well. Again off the lake.
It was a very pronounced ridge, just
like a backbone right down about
one half the length. Total areas
was covered with clouds, the other
half was - along the shoreline was open.

Oll 18 08 04 SPT I did not see a similar effect on


Lake Huron; however, I did see ice on
Lake Huron. I could see it to the
eastward side. you could see cloud
streets which would show the wind to
be from the west. And the ice which
was in fairly large chunks was
up _ainst the east side. Most of the
Dump Tape 011-05

Page 21 of 22

patterns in the ice were parallel


to the coastline - that's running
nortla/south. That had three - free
frames of that. So that was for the
35-millimeter, so we covered a
pretty wide area.

011 18 08 56 SPT The next were up in the Gulf of St.


Lawrence, 08 HH35. But, before I
go on, everything else was under clouds.
Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, unfortunately
were completely clobbered in. I
couldn't get anything really on that.
They were under a pretty thick over-
cast, so there wa nothing in the way
of cloud formation on the lake to
really observe it. In the St. Lawrence
River, began on the mouth of the river
especially on the southward side I
could see large chunks of ice which
we had photographed the other day.
And I got some - two additional

ended up in closed and ... And I
thought the transition from - well

I'll move them together and then we'll
do the rotation. Let me zorn you
in so you can get a little better
look at how these two surfaces make
contact. Okay, we're coming in
slowly with the red one. You can
watch it oscilate here. Before we
do, I'll try to set up an oseilation
which will, is not too, not too
vigorous. We don't want to spill
any of it off. That's an oscilation
"_-_ where the motion is peroendicular to the

on which it rests. Okay, we'll let it
damp out and slowly move it in.

011 18 20 07 SPT Immediately, surface tension takes


over soon as they hit. And it forms
their shape. Now move this so the two
disks which the water ... are 5/8
of an inch apart. Okay, I hope you
csn see the inerface between the two.

4 And we're ready for the rotation.


I'm going to try to rotate this so
that I'll be moving the bar up which
' holds the string at around 16 inches
every l0 seconds. And I think one thing
,_ ,_ that ought to be done here, is to move
,_ ' you back a little bit. Okay,
we're ready.
?
oli 18 21 47 SPT Okay, we're in motion now. Notice nothing
f_-_ really violent. Okay, now I'ii accelerate

Page2 of 7

it a little bit. That appear's to


be about the max we can go. I
could go a little bit faster and
you see what happens. It tends to
become unstable. Surf tension fighting
the centrifugal force. Now we'll do
tlhat once again and next time I' ll
vary rotation rate and get it a little
higher. What we like to look at now
is the effects of vibration.

011 18 22 49 SPT Now there's the single pulse and


what's really damping there mostly
is the mechanic of the structure
which is holding the plate. For ...,
I think you can get a feel for the
natural frequency of this column
_md with that hopefully, I can get
up some standing waves.

011 18 23 17 SPT Okay, let's move this out a little


_-_ further,that is, separateone from
the other as we did before. Okay,
now let's look at the effects of
vibration. See if we can't set up a
st ading wave.

T_ SKIP
011 18 23 39 SPT ]Let'ssee if we can't set up a
standing wave now there is one mode
where the mass of material goes
goes from one end to the other.
Now, if I increase the frequency just
a little bit so you can catch it in
that mode where the two hands are
oscialting towards one another but
not much mass exchanged, now increase
the frequency and we the get some
combination there of. However, I'm
only using one of them to osiclate
so that really is not a symetric
situation, only when it's very slow.
We'll do that again. And the next
higher mode.

/-_ 011 18 25 41 SPT And another


think piece beof interesting
- it would information toI
gather here is how far out do we
have to pull it before the seperation?
I'll try to go slow so that we don't
get any dynamics in this. See if
it's about there. There it goes?
Okay, let's set up for another one.

011 18 33 58 SPT ()kay, we're going to repeat this last


exercise. The speed was not really
too uniform as I rotated and we'll try
to give you more of a uniform
rotation speed this time. We're
looking at two hemisperes of water.
And they're moving together. And when
they meet, surface tension takes over
_nd forms a new shape. You can
picture the surface tension pretty
much the sameway as you can picture
putting water inside a balloon.

Oll 18 3h h5 SPT The molecules at the surface, not


having any further molecules on the
outside tend to hold on to those
adjacent one a little bit harder and
that creates a little tension along the
surface or a little skin. Okay, there's
our interface. Now let's Just back
you off a little bit here. So you
can see it. Center you up Just a little
bit.

rotation. This again we have
6 total cc's of water and the disks are
spaced 5/8 of a center - 5/8 of an
inch apart. We've not yet gone
metric up here. Okay, we're going to
try to give you 1.6 inches per second
on the string rotation, the string pull.

011 18 37 39 SPT Let's increase it just a slight amount


there. Just at the critical. Okay,
we'll set up now for a counter rotation.

k,e northeast of Luzon (?) probably
on the order of 150 miles. And the
thing that's so significant about
this is that the path - there's a
(:lear path in the coulds, that
correspons to apparently a current
path in the surface of the water.
You can actually see eyeball the
streaks and stiation and the counter-eddies
in the water, and it was very apparent
in the binoculars to Jerry as he was
looking at it. However, we were
wondering whether or not the camera
would capture it, as we wanted to make

011 18 50 20 SPT We're prepared for a third run. This


time we rotate the rods in the
opposite direction. We have a
close-up here to watch the two
surfaces as they move - move together.

CREW ...

SPT It's rather difficult to move this


without getting any oscilation in it ms
you notice. See immediately when they
Joined, except surface tension takes over.
The shape that we got there, the
u,
ontour reminds me very much of a
eatenary .... It's what you get when
you hang a rope or _nything of
iAniform weight in gravity. It
probably is someting a little bit
different than that, if you sit
down and calculate it out.

011 18 51 38 SPT Okay, we'll move the rods together


now and be ready for the rotation.
Again this is the same as the previous.
6 cc's of water, 5/8 inch separation
of the plates. Okay, we're going to
to turn counter rotate now, at the
same speed as we rotated previously
in he same direction.

011 18 52 15 SPT I can increase the speed here towards


the end, and you can see we do get some
instabilities, but they're not of a gross
overall nature for the total combined
mass. I believe some of the uncertainty
- or - instibility that came in there
were due primarily to perhaps the
uneven mation of this, These plates
are not exactly perpendicular to the
axis of rotation so there is a little
wobble in there. And also the speed
cannot be held perfectly constant.

011 18 52 55 SPT All right we'll do one - one additional


thing here. We'll move back out. Now
Dump Tape Oll-06
Page 6 of 7

/_ what I should have done there, I


guess for you, was to give you a
little further back view of that.
Perhaps that was a little bit close,
so we'll go ahead and realy quickly
rewind here and give you another one.
You've see the details up close,
_d now we'll move back and let you
see the overall motion.

Oll 18 53 5_ SPT Unfortunately, they've not mechanize_


us yet, and I have to be the mortor

tlhis is changing several of the
peramters here. One is we can inject
water into the solution - excuss me.
inject - air. We can also change the
distance between the plates and change
the amount of water which we put in.
And I think you've seen the effects
of changing rotation. I think we've
_rettymuch established where the
boundary in between the stable and
_mstable rotation. All right we're
rewound. And we'll now move - -

CC Skylab, Houston ....

that should do it_ You'll notive the

you to calculate the rotation rate.
And I'll have to get ourselves lined

011 19 50 59 SPT We're set up here for smother look


at the locations of flux in cylindrical
col1-,_s. This time, however, we'll
be working with a gap of 1-3/8 inches
and 14 centimeters, cubic centimeters
we have the red fluid on the left is
7 and the fluid on the right is 7,
which is clear with a fair - fall -
small amount of bubbles. Now, let's
Just take, before we move them
together and look at some oscillations.

CC ... at O0:ll, that's 19 minutes from


nOW •

011 19 51 h8 SPT And you see, this very much resembles


a halloon filled with water. The
balloo_here being surface tension.
Each molecule clinging onto its

f_ Page 2 of 5

neighbor. Those at the surface.


They don't have any molecule on the
outside to bind with so they hold
onto their neighbors a little bit
harder for the extra bond.

Oll 19 52 14 SPT Now, let's bring them together.


And I'll change the vantage point
here a little bit - and zoom in.
And, we'll see the red fluid move in
to the left. And in contrast to what
we had before, these are 7 cubic
centimeters rather than 3. Well
before I do, let me Just show you
some oscillations now along the
axis, perpendicular to the plate.
You can pick off an actual frequency
there. Matter of fact, that is a
good illustration. Let me move that
back out a little bit and move near
_ the X point back out a little.
That ought to get it focused here over
the - on that red fluid.

011 19 53 35 SPT And again, you'll see elastic cell


around the water, all surface tension.
Different fluids have to different
surface tension a little bit by
putting either soap in it or some
other fluid which will develop in
the water.

011 19 54 16 SPT We'll be moving in together now and


then starting the rotation. Beginning
to see it's very to move this without
setting up an oscillation.

SPT Oops. One burst end it's done.


•.. Now we have a cylinical column.
And I believe the interface is quite
evident and we're ready for the
ro_ation. Now, I think it's obvious
that we'll not be able to rotate at
the same speed as we've had before.
The instability will come at a lower
speed so I'll start out relatively slow
and toward the end we can speed up
if necessary.
\

011 19 55 37 SPT And now you see a different kind of


os - a different kind of instability.
Uh - uh, there we go. Now, we've
generated the same old kind that
we've had before. For a while
there, though we had two modes ;
this is a single. Or I should say
two peaks.

Oll 19 55 59 SPT Now, we'll wait'll - wait for it all


to settle out as long as it doesn't
wet the surface behind which it
ap - appeared as though it's going
to. We might still be able to -
to work with this one. Unfortunately,
it has wetted the surface behing
it. Let's see if we can't coax most
of that over to here. There we go.

Oll 19 56 30 SPT Okay, I think we've seen the


/- rotation. Let's work a little bit
with some vibrations. See what
kind of modes we can set up here.

SPT Here, I believe, is a fluid mode.


They all go a little faster. If I
go fast enough, I'm hoping to be
able to set up standing waves, whicch
I believe I have.

011 19 57 36 SPT Okay, now we increaae frequency again.


Start the ... Now you can see the
shape of waves aB they move from
the right to th_ left. That's because
the forcing is on the right. It's
not a symmetrical wave ; it 's a
wave- crest which is - very clearly
de - defines the direction of motion
of the forcing. Okay, now we're
going to stretch this out a little
bit.

011 19 58 27 SPT Get ourselves an hour glass, which


has been broken in two. Well, let's
move that back. Now the forcing
is fromthe left thistime. And

/-_ 011 22 34 06 SPT SPT at 22:3h; ATM ops pass which


began at 21:40. Okay at the beginning
rather than a 32 building block I
did a - closer to a 2. I finished
with what we have in J0P 6 for build-
ing block 2. And took a look at
the corona and could not see any
change. Compared it with the
photograph I had taken - with the
view. When it's all over it's
zctually well, 30 minutes earlier.
And I could see no change even
thouglh we had had the - the flaring
activity on the limb and the wurging.

SPT And I'm wearing my glasses, too.


I picked up the ones in the schedule
as called out. Only I did the ROLL
so that we were at the slit - at
the HORIZONTAL CROSS HAIR centered
on the region which was bright plage
which had flared the previous orbit.
At least, it flared the - it gave
a subflarewhich I saw.

SPT And we did that pretty much as


specified 811 the way through except
for 55. I chose to take them down
to line 25 rather than 13 which on
tape. So even though the time
resolution was off by a factor of
2, it did cover the surge for material
which had been surging. It was really
not sn all-out active surge at the
time we were looking at it but it
was fairly bright and had changed
appreciably over the orbit, maybe
a i0 to 15 arc seconds in length in
terms of its growth. Went from
maybe i0 to 15 in length up to 25 to
30.

SPT And s_so covered the promience which


is above the limb at around about 250
and also the bright point. So I think
Dump Tape 011-09
P age 4 of 7

/-. we got a good look at all three of


those features with some good
resolution in - ... resolution in
time. And they also carried out
as specified. WE did finish 8.11 the
observations but apparently had to
go to the maneuver just 30 seconds
before I had to go to ATTITUDE, HOLD
and start the maneuver. The pad
calls for 16 minutes time remaining
and we did have a bit of a problem
there because when we started the
maneuver we had 17 minutes and
32 seconds. So, not meaning to
creaZe a problem down ther for any-
body but wherever the bias is sneak-
ing in there it would help because
in the future we could either miss
the maneuver or if you're planning
on that extra time we could miss some
of your observations.

l'll turn the RECORD switch OFF
momentary. Incidentally, the reason
I didn't come up on tape before is
that we have to share one recording
capsbility. And we had somebody
else who had to use the recorder.
All . .. all the prep have been done
so everything got done. We were in
the right frame and the right star-
field. There's a DAC. And by the
way, that's another reas - explanation
You were asking why you ... sometimes
didn't hear the DAC sequence. Lot
of time we don't - it corresponds
to - always corresponds to sunset
time. And at the same time the ATM
operator usually wants to debrief.
And that's usually why they're -
we have to - we would wait until the
last minute to start recording and
why you didn't hear a lot of the
callouts on the tape. But what I
did I - I was all cocked and primed
then and went through and more or
less verbally confirmed everything
that had - that had been done so that
the you'd be satisfied in your own
mind it had been accomplished.

to wait until after sunset to run

per second. You'd indicated the
star-field, the comet, that is
available from 22:h0 to 22:58. And
I - I assumed that that was merely
for information purposes. And if
you didn't want me to start until

had run the DAC for 1 second or
12 fra-feet per second because that's

is --that is the instruction which

01i 21 31 47 PLT Okay, this is the SPT again at


21:32 picking up on the debrief ot
the ATM pass. At 18:25 I noticed
the - well, first of all in going
out to the limb I initially was
going to ROLL so that we got mini-
MARS which had the horizontal cross-
hair tangent to the limb. Decided
against it since we're already going
to be pointing at the limb at the
first MIRROR AUTO RASTER. So I Just
moved ahead and started the observing
program. It was a good call from the
ground. They were - alert me to
the fact that the X-ray . ..
analyzer was going up. I cannot
see it up here. We then went up to
the second pointing for the MIRROR
AUTO RASTER 8/nd at that point as I
was watching the XUV MONITOR, I got
a point breaking, however, not very
f intense nor not very rapid. But it
was realively - higher relative the
other active regions, something that
was *lotprevious to that. So I went
down and took a look at it, oxygen VI
count at the point in H-ALPHA with
around 30,000. I decided that was -
that was good and the - we ought to
stick there. So I went to MIRROR
LINE SCAN and looked at the XUV
MONITOR again. And, sure enough,
the point was still there only
slightly brighter. And so at 18:25
I gave 54 MSI a 64, sequence start,
56 AUTO, SHORT; 82A, WAVELENGTH,
SHOI_r 20 seconds_ 82B, two exposures,
SHORT WAVELENGTH TIMES 1/4. Things
died down at 18:31 and I truncated
it and went into a bulding block 24.
Now I think we - when welre on the
limb we ought to have the orientation
so that the VERTICAL CROSS HAIR is
pretty much tangent to the limb for
both 82A and 82B. In this way, if

block 2, S_n center. Again there
was no change in the corona, and
t:hen did Just go over the limb,
look at the hot spot which is no
longer very hot but probably one
of the hotter things on this - still
on the disk, and though I'd do a
line profile, shows a ... 15 line
and silicone XIV which I assume was
on DETECTOR 2. Either that or those
two lines were coupled, superimposed,
I'm not sure, from the information
which we sent up. I should have

a fairly interesting area where on
the east limb at about the 8 o'clock

of prominence activity over there.
_e one small region of - or, Jerry,
of prominence material or solar

good. Okay, here we go. And you see,
there was an awful lot of mixing in
there. Surprisngly enough very
early in the game they both -
both side exchanged, then we got
a pretty thorough mixing. Now whil_
I have this fluid here, let's see,
one other thing. Let's Just see
if we can get a little clearer
illustration than we had before of
waves. The . .. waves we're looking
at here are called longitudinal waves.

f 012 01 34 43 SPT By that we mean that the material


moves back and forth in the same
direction that the wave must travel.
Still looks the same way sound travels
in the air. Now the opposite kind
cf wave is called a tramsverse wave,
say by that we mean that the fluid
of medium will not move perpendicular
or right angles to the direction in
which the waves travel. An applica-
tion of that is a violin string.
... longitudinal• So we're Just
moving back and forth. That was a
good standing wave_ Okay, we're

we're back here with the Grand daddy
of them all. This is the biggie.
We're working here with a gap of
2 inches, lO cc, of water on each
side. And first we'll Just take a
look at a few oscillations although
I won't go rather gingerly on these.

012 02 21 24 SPT ()kay, we can see the natural frequency


there which I could certainly smplify
but I choose not to. Now you see, I
can get out of phase with it and cause
/_- interference which - now we will go
_md set up a hormonica [?]. But I
wish not to play with this too much
right now. Instead we'll press on
with the experiment. We will first
rotate in the same direction. You'll
notice in the clear bubble that there
is a small air bubble inclusion. The
_mgle I can see in the bubble it makes
a very good ...... or - makes the -
there we go. That was the only way
I could get it over there. Okay, we're
gonna go in - at a rate a little bit
lower than the specified rate of
16 inches every i0 seconds. For pulling
up the rod. After watching the last
one with a gap of only 1-3/8 inches l'm
sure it's Obvious that that speed would
be disastrous. Okay, here we go. Wh -
where are we? Hold on, let me - let me

back you off. I got a good view but


you don't. Let me center you up.
_aere we go. Okay, now one - you have
c_11y one angle on that. The angle I
can see is at the light - darker
colored fluid, the violet, has gone all
the way around on the outside hut
the clear fluid has penetrated up the
axis. Okay, here we go. Yeah, look
at that. Now I can get the other -
the standard mode of oscillation. Hnag
in there. Okay, let's see if we can
get this back together and - and
finish it up to an extent anyway. There
we go.

012 02 25 23 SPT Tapes still have a little of our taping

012 02 25 37 SPT There's the interesting oscillation


Okay, any faster and you see that I
do get the - the one major instability
f which is Justwhat you see in frontof
you. The C [?] shape which rotates.
You notice d_nping times are much
longer here. Okay, that's much more
nonstable. It has a pinch instability.
By that we mean once it starts to
zLeek down at the ... it acts in a way
so as to accelerate that pinch with
that necking down and we end up with
two hemispheres. A perfect, good
standing wave. By that we mean that
the nodes or low points always remain
in the sane locations. There's a -
a primary mode, probably is the lowest
we can get - why don't we Just pass and
fbllow it back and forth. One side
shoving it back and forth to the
other. Okay, let's go for a little

Now we'll have to handle inertia to
get these together. There we go.
That was a good fundamental mode. Okay,
here we go. Now there's that base
symmetry which has been predc_/nant.
Okay then we eventually c_ne into the
same old ... I'm gonna hold up here and
let it stable out - stabilize. Notice
how quickly it mixes. Now one thing
that may be causing a relatively quick
mixing is that we have the inplates
[? ] are not completely parallel so
that you do get a roll motion along
the axis as seen by giving fluid
el_nent right next to the plates. So
that could induce a little bit more
than you might get if they were perfectly
parallel. But we're not very far out.

012 03 12 38 CDR Now, we recognize that a lot of this


Food is already scheduled for use on
the high density days _ but I figured
"that it was easier to give you a
complete listing of all loose food
than to try to figure it out ourselves
as to what's available and what isn't
available. Now, what we would appreciat
getting from you is, based on this
inventory of loose food that's available
we would like to know - we would like
to have you redo the permanent general
message that you sent up indicating
the free calorie food and the other
food that's available for use.

012 03 13 15 CDR I think it would also he a good idea if


you would as soon as possible send up
menus, canplete menus, to go - to be
packed in the cc_and module. And
we'll draw athat stuff out of overage
f rightnow and get it packedup and
put away in the co, and module, so
that it'll be out of sight and out
of mind. I'd like to get that done
Just as soon as possible, so that we
won't have to fool with that during
deactivation. Also, if there's enough
food and enough variety here that
we can cancel the high density days
later on in the mission, and substitute
enough of this overage food to make up
three - one - one complete day for
each of us, I think it will be a very
good idea. And I would request that
you send us up that kind of menu, and
we will select thta food and pack it
and set it aside for that particular
day.

012 03 24 32 SPT This is a continuation of TV-IOI.


What we're trying to create here is
super-column, trying to see what is
the maximt_ length we can get. And
you'll see as I move that there is a
critical dimension - critical lemght
here, probably a length ot diameter.
However, it's strongly influenced
by how much inertia I happen to have
in the water at the time, or motion.
If I could get this perfectly still,
and draw it out, which I'm doing ever so
slow now, I could probably go a little
f bit further than I will be able to with
these small ocillations in there. But
there is a critical length, I believe,
although I have not calculated it, where
any small perturbation would cause it
to neck down. NOw you see, it's starting
to neck down there on the right. OKsy,
now I 're got one rod out to the maximum
amount, and I'll start trying to withdraw
the rod on the right.

012 03 26 03 SPY You'll notice that the - it started


to neck down a little bit there on the
right, more so than on the left. And I
believe the reason there is that I have
put Krytox, which is a lubricant and
will not allow the water to wet the surface,
I put that all arOUnd each edge here, and
probably not as much got on the edge of
this disk. So you see this is really a
wider column here on the left side than
on the right. So all the necking down
will occur on the right.

would give us a little better chance

for me to find the target; and if I had

have given a little better data.

012 20 27 34 CDR It gave us about a 25 or oh,


30 degree ROLL maybe to the left
of vertical - so the SLIT w_sn't
exactly radial to the llmb, but
f_[rly good. And then about
15 minutes later I was sorry I
picked that point because the
part of the prominence to the left
of it about i0 to 15 are seconds
brightened up and sts_ed bright
through the whole rest of the pass
and I felt badly that I had picked
the wrong little piece there to
look at, but I see the next - next
pass I have has - has me moving
to the left, so - oh, it's not much
though, it's only half of the width
of the ...

012 20 28 15 CDR So anyway, you're not getting the


best piece, I think, but at any rate,
it's a good - a good hunk of the

that prominence is tryingto get

But it looks llke _i'great bit huge

012 20 28 h7 CDR In the building block 37, I kind

little bit in _55. I better clue
you in on that so you'll know what
I was doing there. The MIRROR

012 20 29 15 CDR And I figured I'll go ahead and


do the 0232 and then get a SLIT center
snd then I had some time left
over while I was waiting for 82B
the 8 minute exposure to time out
so I went back to 0232 of the rain -
on the MIRROR yet and then let it
run and it ran _]_ost another com-
plete - cycle so we got lots of
MIRROR position 0232 data and
everything else came out okay. I
don't see any significant change
in the WHITE LIGHT CORONOGRAPH
from the last time I looked at it
with Ed, which was about 2 hours
_o. So that's fairly stable, at
least the one daylight pass, and
the XUV MON was relatively quiet
_md unchanged since the last pass.
Lots of brightness on the lime.
With about 3 or 4 minutes to go
at the end of this pass, I went
around and Just kind of surveyed
the active regions in H-alpha and
they're not too terribly hot right
now. And, we'll Just keep an eye
on them and hope maybe s_nething will

that, around last minute or so, the

the heart rate went above a hundred.

lated to all this that still puzzles
me is the - showing that there is no
correlation between the amount of

that excess fluid mostly linked up

seems Just from the mechanics of it
that that would have a short term
affect.

we've talked about over the last

Terry as far as the conditioning
of the vessels, over a long period

happening. But I would think that
on a short term basis the amount of
fluid which your body has in it would
•certainly play a role in your responses.
9mother ... related ..., I am afraid -
one was that I did experience some

012 21 19 57 SPT _.PT at 21:19. Subject is HHh6.


Although, for the HH46 people, the
weather over Lake Ontario is usually
clobbered in and I'm afraid we can't
observe very much in the way of
weather close to the surface. It's
only the gqneral overall conditions
that we observed. It's pure, thick
overcast; however, on the other lakes
especially during the local vertical
pass which was made over the lakes
during the EREP - that was done this
morning. I don't have the exact time
at my disposal. Hold on.

012 21 21 ll SPT Okay, that run over the Great Lakes


was made at around 16:50 this morning.
And in the way of weather I've noticed
phenomena that I've seen before and
talked about, but I'll mention it once
again. And that was convection coming
off the center of the lake, Eiving you
a cloud buildup at the center of the
lake and relatively clear around the
shores. And I saw this at both Lake
Superior and Lake Michigan. Lake
Huron, to some extent. However, I
also saw cloud streakssuperimposed
upon this. These clouds - the cloud
streaks were from e_st the west to
east, so that they were perpendicular
to this long backbone, if you will,
runnlng' donw Lake Michigan and
parallel to that running along Lake
Superior. I've also noticed a con-
tinu_tion of ice ... in the northeast
portion of the lakes, in this case Lake
Superior, up in the northeast. I would
suspect that the temperatures are
lower and the winds would tend to blow
the ice to that _side.

012 21 22 26 SPT And that's what I did observe this


morning.

012 21 22 31 SPT I don't have the exact details. My


only recollection is that maybe 1/10
or so of the lake's width was - had

ice buildup, and they were - it


/_ was not a solid sheet, it was a
series of broken Jagged tracks,
maybe 1 or 2 miles or so in - in
size; mostly long, angular ones,
though, not - not squares, rec-
tangles or so forth. Indeed, a
long portion was running parallel
to the coastline in both cases.
There were some in Lake Huron,
northeast again. And I think
I noticed some - although I'm
not sure again - in Lake Erie,
to the northeast part of that -
portion of that, up towards
Buffalo, but I'd better go easy
on that one because it was ...
slightly overcast in that region,
Just before we go t to the heavy
overcase on Lake Ontario.

debriefing the s0:59 ATM pass.
First, J0P 6, building block 32 ;
no problems there. UOP hA, build-
ing block 37 went without any
problem. The - I mentioned at
the last debriefing of the last
pass that I had wished that I
had pointed a little bit to the
"Left of the bright part of the
prominence that I was pointed on
and fortune smiled upon me because,
when we came up on the next pass,
_hat bright part in the left side
had moved into the right side that
filled up the gap between them and
So when I pointed a little bit to
1_he left of where I was before -
we were still in nice - a nice coronal
area there; we could see lolls of
prominence and everything, so felt

pretty good about that.

012 21 42 47 CDR The - I played it straight this


time with S055 and got everything
done in order.

012 21 42 54 CDR Jumped into a second building


block 37 and got things going very
nicely til I was awakened by the
ground and they said 82]3 WAVE.Lk_NGTH
was supposed to be LONG, and that's
right here on the pad. I Just flat
blew it. I was busy trying to make
the transf - transition very quickly
from one building block to the next,
in order to get it all - try to get
it all done before truncation time.
And I would have made it if I had
used the right wavelength. As it
Were, the 82B and the second J0P 37,
which should have been at a
WAVELk_GTH LONG for 2 minutes,
- was given to you in a WAV_J_k_NGTH,
SHORT for 2 minutes. And I gave you
about 3 and a 1/2 minutes of WAVE-
I_ENGTH, LONG, indeed, but when they
finally woke me up and I terminated
it and started it over again, and -
_d we got 5 minutes and 30 seconds
worth of the other ones before we had
to terminate due to_the maneuver.

012 21 43 51 CDR S055 got all its, data. We got our


02:32 and then another SLIT CENTER
batch of information; or I should
say SLIT CENTER first and then 02:32.
I got all the other ones shut down
early. They - they were all finished
up, and so 82B 'I let run all the way
to within about 12 seconds of maneuver
time and then I shut it down.

012 21 44 14 CDR And that's how we got our 5 end


minutes and 30 seconds. I'm sorry about
that, 82B.

012 21 h4 20 CDR I really - really bungled that


wavelength. So, again, I hope
it doesn't leave too big a hole in
your little data package, there.
We'll debrief the - a little flare
activity that was reported to me
when I first got to the console,
except that it was reported that
it was active region 20 that wan
doing the flaring and the only in-
dications I had of any sort of
flare activity was in active
region 17, when I got over there
and looked around.

012 21 h4 57 CDR Well, let's see. That's about


it. There's no significant change
in the WHITE LIGHT CORONOGRAPH.
Since two orbits ago, the two
streamers that - the large streamer
that split into two down at about 2hO
is still there and looking very
_trong. The large streamer out on
the east limb looks almost to me like
it's two streamers, one behind the
other. The _ front one is about half
the widtK of the base of the whole
bright area, there; and then the
other one is behind it and is not
quite as bright and so then - and
it starts the other half - it
showed the other half of the base.
It's as if you had two figures - one
overlayed the other one a little bit
and the one in the back is the dimmer
of the two. Let's see; I guess
that 's about it,_

looks like" it's really three or
four sunspots all pt_nped together and
the plage around it is beginning
to kind of maneuver around. I di•d
t_e the time to try to look for
the neutral line ans see what it
looks like, but it - it's beginning
to look more complicated. And then
I went on over to active region 20.
I wanted to take a look at the
prominence above that. And it looked
like one of these stylized king of •
Drowns. It had three - three points
sticking up, and they came together at
the bottom and - and the feet of the
prominence •were actually down on
the limb this time, so there is progress
there. I forget to also mention that
prominence 76, the one l've been working
with so long. finally this pass cc_-
pletely filled in over the top. I
got a hunch that .it's only one for
the lower Spans of the loop. I think
there's probably higher spans because,
looking at my end of the loop, it looked
like it branched off to the left
mad that is to the south - branched off
to south and connected up with other
f_ont, low. But it looked like
there were other branches going on
up higher, and I couldn't see where
they cut it - Where they, completed
the" loop across the top. But
anyway,'76 did, for awhile anyway, there,
show a complete loop. It was a
little bit film and hazy, hut it was
indeed a complete loop. Getting back to
active region 20 now. what I did is
I went back ofer to 18 from looking at

the prominence there at 20.


Let's see, that prominence
over 20 I guess is number 77. I
went back over to active region 18,
I laid the slit along the filament,
and I did shopping list number 8

I got a - had Just barely had time

total of 20 CCs water volume.
We had some problem with the
co_ this morning; I'm not sure
how much of the information which
I gave then got through so I'll go
ahead and give it again. Changes
which have been made since the
_n fr_n yesterd_7: the two plates
here have been taken off and then
put back on so that they were
f

perpendicular to the axis of


the two rods and also parallel
to one another in their mountings.
The edges of the disk as well as the
rods themselves have been covered
with trltox so that the water will
not wet the surface and give us
_at we had in the previous run of
water coming over one edge and
giving us a little larger diameter
(m one side than on the other. Okay,
we'll move these fellows together
here. You/ll note the bubbles ... in
the red liquid, and the bubbles
moved - and they started oscillating,
the bubbles moved from the top on
the right to the plate. Now I've
also increased the length of the
string here wo we'll be able to get
a. little more rotation out of it.
First set up. We'll start off
relatively slow. You know, those
two runs which I did this morning,
Just to document them, one was -
they were - both of them were single
rod rotation on the left. First was
that 1-3/8 inch separation lh COs
above water in - Excuse me, the first
one was 5/8 inches, 6 CCs, the
second one was 1/38 inch, lh CCs.

012 23 55 21 SPT Okay, we're re_dy to rotate. Okay,


we'll increase the speed a little
bit. Okay, once again increase the
speed. Okay, we - here we're getting
into that one - I'll stop it here.
That one mode where it will go
divergent rather rapidly. Very little
d_mping to it. Just the internal
turbulence of the fluid apparently
is the only thing that will damp it,
Now watch those bubbles. As the
fluid rotates it will probably tend
to collect towards the center. We've
noticed that in all the - everything
that we have spun up here in the way
of a liquid form. Bubbles always

go to the center. Like a gravity


gradient, only a centrifugal force
fradient. Okay, here we go again.
Now that was unexpected, I have not
seen that before. Okay, we got to
link these two fellows up again.
Here we go. Okay, that takes the last
of - of these runs here.

012 23 57 49 SPT I think what we'll be picking up on


here now is going back to the 1-3/8 inch
separation and trying a few different

targets. The - this was on a
i_ss which took us over the
U.S. starting at 18:24 and
ending at about 18 :B4. At
]_:24, I know - I took one
l_oto of Walker Lake which is
EREP site number 45. That's
on frame number 42, taken a
5.6, i/i000. Let's see - that's
with a Nikon 300. Okay, at
3_8:30, I took a picture of
Minneapolis, Minnesota, that's
frame number 41. That's Charlie
][-ray 40 in the cassette, agai n
5.6, over I000. AT 18:33, I
again sighted the volcanic ring
that's up in Canada, north of
the St. Lawerence River. And
this was a particularly good
shot. We were right over it
_md I - I also was kind of
interested in what the field
of view of the 300 _s. I took
%he picture with the field -
with the 300'Just literally
completelyfilled. In fact,
overfilled with volcanic ring.
I'm going to be i_terested to
:Bee what the photo looks when

I get back. It - it may be

I 'm not sure. Anyway that was


exposure number - frame number
40, taken at 5.6 and 1/100O.
Then at 18:34, we crossed the
Gulf of St. Lawerence. I
took two photos, one south
and one north of Anticosti Island.
These are photos alike. They're
frames number 39 and 38, 5.6,
I/I000. And then I looked up
toward the Goose Bay area and
Just about north of the •
St. Lawerence - Gulf of
St. Lawerence, I noticed a -
a - a group of mountains - to
the southeast of a large lake.
And the mountains had very
strong, very noticeable straight
linear fracture patterns in
them. And they were crisscrossed.
And so I took a picture of that.
That's frame number 37. A@_in
I debated going to _.5 hut I
decided with all the snow, I'd
stick to 5.6. That's 5.6, over
lO00. Another item _, I - as I
mentioned air to ground, I
noticed the dircular structure
that I have been - that I've
reported near Minneapolis. I
finally located it on the ground
_uud it - I told them that it
• was on a line between Minneapolis
_md Chicago, Just about midway
in between where the Mississippi
and another river forks off to
the east. And it's in the -
southeast corner of that fork,
you might say. That form makes
up the northwest quadrant of
that circular structure. And
it - it's not anywhere near as
_strong and apparent circular
structure now a8 the one up
in Canada is, but it is indeed
still - still visible asa

circular-looklng thing on the


ground. Another item I'd like
to have you folks do, if you
would, please, and that is send
us up the name of that volcanic
ring in Canada. I'm getting
tiredof callingit the volcanic
circular structure. And would
you also give us the coordinates
of that structure too so that
we could sketch it into our maps.

take the 2-inch spacing
20-centimeters - cubic centimeters
of fluid and go through both
the two-rod rotation same direc-
tion and opposite rotation,
repeat those because of two
things. One is I think the
speed yesterday was too high
to show some of the more subtle
features and also the plates
being nonparallel, I think,
induced the ... which are not
really representative of what
we are trying to study. So
if you'll bear with me, we'll
just repeat these two. They
might not look any different
or any more dynamic than you've
seen before, but I think for
the purposes of people analyzing
the data, it's worthwhile doing.

SPT Okay now, let's hold it up


here and wait until our friend
damps out a little. Don't
want to get it going too violently.
11'ii wind up with a situation
11 did earlier today. By
swinging the 20-cc syringe
around to centrifuge out the
s.ir bubbles a plunger managed
to pop out and I improved the
decor of the OWS walls, very
unique pattern. Speckled grape
Juice.

SPT Okay, there. We've not reached


/_ s. steady state. It starts to
build up. Okay, I'm going to
hold it here. Hold on, fellow!
Okay. I think you can see the
difference - yester - between
yesterday and today in that it's
not wetting the surface as
much as I put Krytox(?). Normally,
the way that behaved there,
we would have seen the fluid
come over the Side and start
to wet the surface. Let me
try to get these - We still
have a few turns left, so let
me try to get these fellows
back together again. There we

SPT Okay, hold up here and let it


damp.

SPT And osc_llatlon is not - doesn't


appear to be a rotation; it's

take a little while.

SPT Okay. We'll try going now,

SPT The original interface - the


position of the interface
between the two fluids was still
visible here to me.

SPT It somehow has accumulated a

what happens to the bubbles.


A_nd a close comparison of what
we've seen before with the
air injected. That's the only
thing I csm see different in
the difference in the mass
motion of the water.

SPT Then you see the substitution


effect, higher portion being
on the outside, the bubbles
all kind of collect along the
8xis. Larger ones first;
they're more buoyant, then the
smaller.

SPT Ckay, finally, there's the


old standard instability.

SPT Notice how the bubbles have all


kind of collected right in the
very center now. Okay, we'll
pick this up again.

SPT See if we can't get this fellow


back over there. I don't know
• when to lean on it. There we
go. Again that rotation was
a little fast. I started out
with relatively slow rotation.
I think we had pretty close
to a static situation, static
on the ... state. I've sped
up a little bit and we got
"that divergence. And then I
"went at a higher rate and the
divergence comes in faster, but
produce some different type of
oscillations. Here we go,
painfully slowly.

I'm doing with my hands here.

013 15 05 hh PLT MARK. O00h6. Okay, I got a suggestion.


_[t's gonua sound paradoxical. The
control should be easy to move, but
you should be able to get your fingers
Dump Tape 013"06
Page 2 of 12

off of it without moving it. I


think l'm moving this thing occasion-
ally. Man I - and that sounds like
that's really levying an impossible
requirement on you, but that's what you
need. You need to be able to make very,
very small adjustments easily, but you
need to be able to , like if you had to -
in your right you were pressing a re-
lease.

013 15 06 20 PLT MARK. 000h9. Holding the release with


your right hand and when you get it on
there why adjust it with your left hand,
o:r vice versa. It doesn't make any difference.
Tihen you release the - you release your
finger on your right hand from a button
say that is the release in friction and
tlhen that would lock the - the control in.
One of the things is - a lot of the times
is that seems like I'm caught between cogs
in a gear. And I - I'm eithernot far
enough, or:I'm too far and I can't get in
between. And the other is that once I
get it, I get a real good alignment of the
stars, then whe_ I release my finger -
take my fingers off of the control, I - I
move the knob slightly as I release it.

013 15 07 Oh PLT So I think that you ought to give serious


consideration to that, if you want accuracy.
Now, if you're satisfied with sort of
mediocre scatter then the - this present
system is fine. If you're really going
for- if you really want accuracy then
you're gonna kid yourself because, first
place if you - there's gonna be a certain
amount of inherent friction in the gearing
and so forth and it looks sliption and
sticktion [sic]. And this is going to
make it difficult for an operator to
actually make a fine enough adjust with
his fingers in order to give you the
alignment. And then, in addition to that,
if you give him'something that's nice
and easy to move, in taking his fingers
off of it he can move the thing slightly.

thing this time. Way off, way off. Okay,
what's happening is I'm dragging my finger
off that knob when I take it off and I'm
not watching it. But %hat's a real problem.

And my comment still holds that you


need some kind of feature that permits
you to make a very fine adjustment very
easy with very small forces. But you need -
need to be able to take your finger off
the control without moving it. And the
only thing I could - I'm not - I'm not
i a designer,the only thing I can suggest
is that you'd be able to hold a clutch
down with your right- finger on your
right hand while you're adjusting with
the fingers on the left and then release
the - clutch once you get the adjustment.
But I - some of this scatter, I'm sure
is due to that.

013 15 33 30 PLT MARK. 38535. Yeah, looks like the Sun's


coming up here. Try to get a couple of
more in.

013 15 33 56 PLT MARK. 38533. Yeah, they're off. They


were off whenI lookedback in.

013 15 3h 5h PLT MARK. 38555. Okay, stopping marks. And


:[ have another suggestion. One of the
problems - the reason I was taking so
long, in holding this thing at a odd angle
like this I'm holding it more or less
90 degrees to what you would normally
hold it if you held it if you held it
in front of you and read the temperature
gauge. One of my problems is I'm hold-
ing this £hing by the strap and in the -
like I was holding up a clenched fist.
And holding this thing clenched in my
fist so that the - the adjustment knob
is at the top as it faces me and the
strap is on the bottom. And as I adjust
the 1 star in, I loose track of which
star is which. And I go - I - as I'm
.adjusting the nash- natural nervousness
and motion of my hand as they come - as
they wiggle around as I pull it - as I -
as I rotate it past, I loose track of
which one is which and I go Beyond the
point that I want to.

013 15 36 O0 PLT I'm leading up to a suggestion that


we use a colored filter on the - on
one star then you wouldu't loose track of
it. Just a - you know like a - a -
a blue filter might be best. I don't
know, or a red filter. Something that
would enable you to code - code the
stars so that when you move them together
you don't loose track of one star over
the other. But whe - when I'm - when I'm
up and down - when I 'm holding this
tlhing in front of me and have the - my
fingers through this strap, the eyepiece
at the top and the brand - and the
battery at the bottom, I don't have that
problem. When I'm holding it at an odd
angel I do; I've noticed it before.

013 15 36 hO PLT And I think, in any event, it would -


it would assist the operator at least
to have a colored filter available to
F- code the - code one of the stars.
Probably, it would also enable you to
differentiate the star fields. I
know you can - you can twist it and -
and - and see right away which stars are
in the field of view - which - the
straight ahead field of view, the ax -
the primary axis, I guess you could call
it, and in the movable axis. But if
you could use a colored filter I think
it'd sure help.

013 15 49 01 SPT SPT at 15:49. Debriefing the last ATM


_ass which was the last eighteen past front
of done at 14:06. I went over to the
limb after the building block i and looked
Dump Tape 013-06
Page T of 12

at the new active region that's


coming around the corner, 21,
I believe we're ,calling it.
]it's right on the limb from
which we've seen an awful -
awful lot of surging. Saw
the surging of the - or what
looked like the start of
surging at the very beginning
of the orbit. I cannot be
sure how long it was going
on. So I elected to go to
Sun center and do the Sun
center operations, hoping
that we would be seeing
something in the corona.
When I came back, I found
out that wedid have a -
some change. The surging was
still going on in the - in
"that the material which I
_ ihad seen previously, right
close to the disk, was now
slightly off the limb and
the 55 was catching it as it
was moving outward. 55
received a truncated MIRROR,
AUTO RASTER that went down to
line 15. We gave them a ...
long one first down to line
around h00° _d then went to
truncated ones down to line 15
so that they would be looking
at active region 17 and well
as - or Sorry, active region
20, as well as 21. In looking
at oxygen VI count, that went
anywhere between 18,000 and
10,000, depending upon when
I would happen to look it. I
noticed appreciable time
changes say about went in a
minute. 56 received a long
exposure from the two melted [sic]
mirrors - filters they were
interested in. Five and one,
first one 8 minutes, second
f_ _ne I let go to 9 minutes,
r.

before we got to hOOK. 823


because of the advancement,
I gave them two sequences of
WAVELENGTH, SHORT TIME 1/h.

013 15 52 28 SPT During the second one is when


I noticed the appreciable
change. When we started the
exposure oxygen VI was 13.
When we - 13,000 - and when we
finished the sequence of ex-
posures, it was up around
16,000. At the end of the
crblt we went back and gave
52 a building block 32, a
quickie. Okay, we're now in
the next - the following orbit
in which we did not plan to
get, but EREP was selfish,
so we have it. And I'm si_ting
here essentially in a flare
wait. I have56 in the AUTO,
LONG. 55, I 'm doing truncated
MIRROR, AUTO RASTERs. And
the oxygen VI count again was
5:0,000 when I came up here.
We're right on a point -
right above the limb. The
limb is in - at 995, that's
_nus 995 in the WHITE LIGHT,
SLIT display. It is 990
for the 5 arc'seconds off the
limb.

013 15 5h 26 SPT Oxygen VI coUnt is again fluc-


tuating, and also in the
intensity H-ALPHA. I have
not seen a great deal of in-
tensity changes at all in
the XUV Monitor in the whole
region 21. That sure is
enhanced. But no single
bright points standing out.
And ACTIVE REGION 16 also has
so_e enhancement. 20 and 17,
likewise. I realize we're
looking at - right on the limb,
/-_ Dump Tape 013-06
Page 9 off 12

so we're getting the doubling


effect, limb brightening,
but nonetheless, it is fluctuating
and it is very bright and I
feel it's the best place to
be sitting right now.

013 16 39 35 SPT SPT at 16:39. Debriefing the


last ATM Pass which began
at about 15:h0. I've already
given you the information on
the start of the orbit. I
did not include, however,
that we gave a buiI_ing block
132 at the beginning for 52
and AUTO, SHORT also was
included for 56. We then went
over to flare wait mode on
active region 20 for 5 arc sec-
onds off the limb. Looked
tangent to the LIMB. Did
truncated MIRROR, AUTO RASTERs
down to around line 15 or 16,
hoping to include pert of
active region 20. Turned out
I should have gone down a
little bit farther than that.
First one however, I did go
down to around line h0,
taking a good look at the
total area. TI_ HEMAINING
of 35 minutes, I gave 5h an
MSIS 6h for some reTerence
data. In ca_e we didn't go
into the flare mode, they'd
have something to refer to
in the way of change. At
32 minutes TIME REMAINING
we gave 82B a SHORT, TIMES l/h,
at which time to oxygen VI
count had gotten up to 16,000.
f_

I saw between 20,000 and


8,000 during that orbit.

013 16 41 07 SPT At lh :20 time Q4T, I saw point


brightening over the active
:region 20. I started the ex-
periments in their respective
flare modes, that's 54,
MSIH 6h; 55, MLS; 56, AUTO,
SHORT. And I believe I hit
5he OFF switch and then ON,
but maybe we never made the
OFF switch. But anyway, as
I was looking a - an operate
3ight and figured I was in
AUTO, SHORT, because that's
the way the panel was configured
and I believed I'd hit the
STO?. I'll have to be more
definite about it. 82A got
a WAVELENGTH, SHORT times -
a WAVELENGTH, SHORT at exposure 20.
82B, I did not give any
exposure yet 'as we were not
on the flare.

013 16 h2 Oh SPT When 82A timeB out, I moved


over to active region 20 which
"hook about, i guessing i0 seconds.
At the outside 15. Oxygen VI
count there was up to 38,000.
XUV sLIT got a WAVEL_GTH,
SHORT, TIMES 1/4 exposure.
And the other instruments
continued on in the modes which
I had left them. At around
ih:25 the point brightening
had died away. We saw no X-ray
enhancement. I stopped 5h.
56 went back to :AUTO, LONG.
55 remained in MIRROR, LINE -
MIRROR, LINE SCAN. And I did
:not move 82A or B into their
flare modes. Had the point
continued to brighten, I
would moved the 82A and B into
Dump Tape 013-06
Page ii of 12

the flare modes, However,


it started to fade almost as
._.oonas we gt there. At
about 14:27 I noticed that
the filament in that active
region had become much darker,
much more pronounced, than
I recalled seeing it before
when we first moved over.

013 16 hh 03 SPT SPT out.

SPT To conclude off the orbit we


did a building block 32 at
the end for 52. However, we
got lined up a little bit
]_ate and only got in around
the first exposure and approx-
imately half of the second
one.

f 013 16 hh 19 SPT SPT out.

013 16 52 23 SPT SPT at 17:h2 - 16:52. Did


an MhT. While it's fresh in
r_ mind, let's talk about TV
input stations and the whole
[?V system. ... we've got
in here is probably one of
the worst examples of how
not to design a system. Or
a - perhaps the best example
of how not to design a system.
We have lost countless data
because of the numbers of
switches and the n,,mhers of
stations that have to be
checked before you can pull
of our ... TV exercise. In
fact, first what we need at
each of the TV stations is
a light that comes on that
syas data is going on to the
tape. We shouldn't have
to check four or five input
stations all the way up the
line every time you want to
f
f Dump Tape 013-06
Page 12 of 12

use the TV. Second, you need


a control for the VTR right
next to the input stations.
You shouldu 't have to go up
to the MDA, turn it on, waste
a good 2 or 3 minutes getting
back down there, getting
set up, getting the head -
head set on, and in general
Just blowing time and VTR.
And I saw a classic example
of this today. I put in around
3 hours worth of work here
... on TV-101 and that's all
blowing right down the drain
because it wasn't turned on
earlier that day and not turned
off. And again you can call
it human error if you llke,
but it's Just too darn many
• rapid _ switches to check.
And .that system has got to
F be one of •the worst. I hope
l_._ople learn something in
future pr ogram_ .... before
we ever started.

began approximately at 17:15. Okay,
Jerry started off the pass and we
were in the flare wait mode looking
at active regions 20 and 21, primarily
on 21 because that's where the region
looks the hottest. During my portion
of the time on the panel, I had the
EOLL so that we could get the SLIT
tangent to the limb and give a good
exposure for 82A. I discussed it with
Jerry and I think we all agree that's
the - a reasonable way to go. We gave -
truncated MIRHOR AUTO RASTERs down to
line 15 or 17 or so, for a good part of
the second half of the orbit on 55,
occasionally stopping to take a look
at the oxygen VI count if we'd had a reason
to believee it was changing. But the right
eye glued to the persistent image scope
which is on MONITOR 2, left eye occasionally
].ooking at H-ALPHA i on MONITOR i, and
every once'in a while taking a look at
that oxygen VI count PMEC BERYLLIUM
aperture for IMAGE INTENSITY COUNT. It
looks like the way to catch one; it's
just a matter of time. At the conclusion
of the orbit we gave 52 a quickie.

013 20 26 16 PLT PLT out.

013 20 35 01 SFT Subject here is TV69. And what


we're trying to do here is to grow
some rice seeds in agar. And I'll
"try to give you the best closeup
that I can. The difficulty that
we encounter is this agar is not
transparent, it's only transluscent.
:3o to get enough light in one of
the sidyports to reflect off the
seeds and come back to the camera
is a bit of trick but I think we
might be able to at least let you
see what the nature of the growth
is. In comaprtment 4 agar, the
center seed is the one which has
sprouted the most. There are white
roots coming out of the right hand
side of your screen, which is the side
away from the light.

013 20 36 07 SPT %Wne roots in general do now show any


real prefernce for moving towards or
away from the light. As far as stems,
I have not noticed anything which
res_ubles green growth which could be
characteristic of a non-root growth.
It all appears to be root. Now 4 -
well, let's take a look at 2;
unfortunatley we did not get seed on that
one. We have seeds in 4, and in 6,
which there's not a great deal of
growth, but some.

013 20 37 Oh SPT THe center seed in 6 is the one


which has grown the most. That in - is
very similar to the growth in compartment
4. NOw, compartment 4 recieved
the;most light continuously; then 6,
then 8. Eight has very little growth.
Dump Tape 013-08
f _ page8 of9

S_nere are some very small roots coming


off the rice seeds but nowhere near
the growth we've seen in the other
two compartments.

013 20 37 52 SPT Now on the other side; let's flip it


ove r •

013 20 37 55 SPT _e numbers will be upside down here;


however, we figured to do that in order
to _et you the proper light. We're
looking at compartment one, which has
_cieved the most light during the
growth period of around 4 days here.
Let me try and get it in focus and
the proper lighting , too. Adn so
far the question of will the plant
1_spond inone light, what is it's
threshold for growth, still unanswered
because the - compartments 2 and h
have the most, the ones which recieved
a medium _nount of light, the ones
_ich recieved K maximum and a minimum
have not responded.

013 20 39 Ol SPT Out depth of field here for the closeup


ones is very small. I can get the
front of the compartment in focus, but
as that's done the seeds become
out of focus.

013 20 39 39 SPT ()kay,let me go back one here. Let


ze get you the real comparment one.
There it is. I'm afraid I had you
on ccmpartment 5 for which there is
no label. We have aproblem there
_rith the clear tape which was put
over the glass of the protector.
It's got sc_e wrinkles it in there,
mld that reflects the light and
completely overwhelms what you're
trying to see there. Okay; now,
eompartment 3. There we do have some
growth in that center seed. And I
think that's in focus. Now compartment
5. Very small muount of growth there.
And lastly compartment 7.

debriefing the 20:20 Zulu
A'I_4pass. We started out
with a JOP 6,'building block 2.
No problems. JOP hA, building
block 28 at the active region
20, since I saw no bright
spots popping up I did not
expose any 82B film. The -
all the rest of the procedures
went without any problems
at all. I got everything
done. And carried 55 right
up to trum - right up to
maneuver time really. 30 seconds
before maneuver time, which
was 21:00, I terminated 55.
We got 17 mini-RASTERs or
whatever you call those 13 -
line 13 Jobbers are called.
And little active region 20 -
21 I should ssy, is Just
teasing the heck out of us,
but it - it wouldnit pop.
I would appreciate it if you
@_s in the baekroom would
turn the intensity up on that
Just a little bit more. The
sntive region 20 - I noticed
that active region 21 as it
would wax and wade and active
region 20 seemed to be Just
]80 out of phase with it; that
s it's the energy raising
the the light level - the
temperature of active region
_:l, and active region 20
would - would diminish in
intensity. Then I 'd see
20 - 21 start to fade a little
bit, and you could look down
imd you could see - well, I'm
not getting my numbers all
messed around. Anyway, you'd
see one - one Wax and the
Dump Tape 013-10
Page 2 of 9

other one wane and then -


then they would swap positions.
And it - it looked like you
were Just kind of pumping
energyback and forth between
the two - the two active
regions. And of course,
active region 21 on the limb
_de the brightese throughout
the entire day pass, but
_ctive region 20 did jump
up a few times. And it'd
get fairly bright, but really
not bright enough so that
you could see it on the
persistence image scope
imint egrat ed. However,
active region 21 was in view
Unintegreted on the - on
•- the persistence imagescope
_t all times, and sometimes
.you could actually see it
begin to intensify a little
bit, and that's when I would
get springloaded to shift to
a flare, and then the son
of a gun would gade out again
and' get dim. So it spent
the whole day pass just
teaslng me that way, and it
Just wouldn't do its thing.
I checked the WHITE LIGHT
COEONAGRAPH over and compared
it with the picture that was
taken on a Polaroid camera
this morning. There was no
significant difference. One
of the spikes down at - or
I should say streamers down
at about 240, the lower of

themselves have been removed
Emd put on so that they are
perfectly perpendicular to the
_is of rotation and also, of
course then, parallel to one
_mother. And secondly, we've
taekn Krytox, which is a lub-
ricant pretty much like a
grease, vaseline or petroleum
type lubricant, and put that
all around the edge and the
...... , but not on the front
]?late, and that serves the
purpose of - of not permitting
the water to wet the surface.
That will allow us not to have
