No , I was called and t hey said, "Say we got a
critical tape dump.
We want you in a level
attitude for it." And I said, "Well, you just
gave me instructions to watch Pegasus. "
And
they said, "No, we want the critical tape dump. "
So I went right down to that attitude, and we
got the dump off in time for me to go back up to
the attitude prior to 02:28.
I got up there
about . 5 minutes prior to that time, but the
sun, as Jim said , was up and was reflecting off
the particles on the windshield, and I really
couldn't see very much.
I tried to see Pegasus ,
but I couldn't see it.
I turned MSC- 2 and ~ off
at the appropriate times .
We got instructions
from Houston CAP COM to t ry a few things with the
computer.
We were to turn the computer off , the
IGS on, the computer on at 20 minute intervals
to try to r ecycle the mal l ight off. They thought
that it might have been cold.
