No, not compared to a maria; I agree. But that's what I mean; overall, it's genfral]y b%_npier. But if you talk about sharp or more rugged or r_gged slides and hills and peaks, I've seen mor_: of t?mt on thc front side after Jl]st one pass. We're at 20 m_nutes, and that sholald be right. There's the 20-minute mark. JosS, we're going to come up to the big IX that leads into your second one. You got a crater IX, John? Yes. I got it coming r_ght up here.

Okay. Fuel cell plan is relatively simple. We're Just going to leave it off line, open-circuit, and we want you to turn the fuel cell 1 in-line heaters off and then monitor the skin temperature. Monitor the temperature to stay between 390 and hl0, cycling the in-line heaters on and off to maintain 390 to 410. This will keep our water production to a minimum, reducing our requirement to purge, and we may be able to go as long as 50 hours *'ithout purging. During the day, we will work out procedures to use during your sleep period on skin temperature. Over. Okay, Jack. You must have been reading the same malfunction procedures as I was. The fuel cell heater has been off - well, ever since we went through LOS. I fve got a question on that heater. It's an AUTO heater which recycles somewhere around 380, 390 degrees. Do you Just want me to turn this to AUTO position if it starts dropping? Is that correct? Negative, 10. about that heater? ,'-', , ,

Okay. Real fine. And Just - you might pass along to the FID0 troops do_n there that we noticed a star we couldn't identify coming up, and we said, well, there must be something else in orbit with us. And sure enough, this last pass it got close enough. It's the bottom part of Snoopy, and Gene-o with the monocular could see his legs - th_ reflection off his legs. So as he went out in behind us, like I guess I read that one state ..., but we're going to slowly catch up with him. We're starting to catch up with the bottom part of Snoop, but something has torqued him out of plane a little bit, and he's going out of plane to the south of us. Maybe a mascon grabbed ahold of him or something_ but we're catching up with him. There is no doubt about it; and we can actually see different colors in reflected light Off the black in the silver panels. Over. Roger. ... Got the data there, Houston? Stand by. Copy, babe. 10, Houston. We can - you can increase your marking time slightly if you'll push your pitch rate up a little bit as you go through the marking cycle. Over. Okay. Shoot, we know that. Yes, we thought about that. Okay, Okay. ... Telescope, range one. We got it all. You can proceed. Good show. We'll pass that on to the FIDO.

Roger, 10. At that time, we had selected OMNI Delta, and, as the system is explained to me, the antenna should not have been going to any particular position, but it won't hurt itself. When we got ready to lose signal strength of Delta, we would have ground-commanded back to the high-gain antenna, and it should then reacquire. Over. Okay. Well, did. we didn't do anything up here.
