:29:00
Go ahead.
:29:02
Okay, here's the big story.
:29:04
Your attitude looks good
except in rolls...
:29:06
so we'd like you
to do the following:
:29:09
In minimal impulse pings,
we'd like you to trim to zero pitch...
:29:12
which is about where you are now...
:29:14
to 008 degrees in roll...
:29:17
which is about 16 degrees
from your present roll attitude...
:29:21
and to zero degrees in yaw,
which is about where you are now.
:29:25
We'd like you to do the body
access align 400 plus 5-400...
:29:29
Could you help me?
I'm not sure...
:29:34
How does that sound? Over.
:29:37
Are you saying
I'm rolled the wrong way?
:29:41
That's right, Jim.
I'm sorry.
:29:48
Apollo 13 is 45,000 miles
from Earth...
:29:52
and moving at 7,000 miles an hour.
:29:55
Its course now adjusted so we should
see it land in the Pacific...
:29:58
some five hours from now.
:30:00
The helicopter carrier lwo Jima
is on station there.
:30:04
The weather,
which has been on-again, off-again...
:30:07
is now on again.
:30:09
Some of the spacecraft's most critical
moments are approaching.
:30:12
In about 20 minutes,
at 7:23 Houston time...
:30:16
the astronauts will jettison
their crippled service module.
:30:19
At 10:53,
they will cast off the lunar lander...
:30:23
that has been their lifeboat ever since
the power failed on the main ship...
:30:26
some 82 hours ago.
:30:29
What we don't know in the final hours
of this extraordinary mission...
:30:34
is how the damaged spacecraft
will stand up to the trauma...
:30:36
of re-entry
into the Earth's atmosphere.
:30:39
How do we tell whether
the heat shield's been damaged?
:30:41
Drop it through the atmosphere
and see if they survive.
:30:44
Were Odyssey's heat shields
damaged by the explosion?
:30:48
Will the pyrotechnics
that deploy the parachutes...
:30:50
needed to slow the capsule...
:30:52
from a fatal 300 miles an hour...
:30:54
to a gentle 20 for splashdown
function properly?
:30:58
We're getting word from Brett Hutchins
that the astronauts...
