Yes, we had a great day.
That third da~r was a goody.
Man we had everythi ng right on the button.
We
got good shots of it and everything just worked
out right on the money.
Okay, let' s se,3.
This is
15 hours 40 minutes, that's still with everything
powered up.
Then we had this D-1 and D-4 and we got those.
Those
were photographs .
We got the photographs of the moon
and the IR measurements of the moon and with the IR
film and I think they're probably pretty good.
Of
course the Air Force has that film .
We found that the IR and the retical and the radar
and everything were pretty well right on the money.
Everything seemed to be boresighted pretty well, and
Pete could look thr ough his questar lense at a s t ar
and be boresighted right in the mi ddle of the darn
camera. I'd have it right in the middle of the ret­
icle.
Yes , I ' ve got to eat crow on that.
I Fas the @J.Y
that was complaining about did they reE,lly have this
stuff boresighted.
Everything was extremely well
boresighted.
:
Yes, it sure was.
Can' t complain about i t at all.
