Cooper
Reentry--Number 1- -Adapter Separation.
No doubt .
We set the Magazine at l/60th of a seccnd­ - 4 pictures
We took 4 pi ctures of the moon on Magazine 10 at
l/120th.
Conrad
At that time period shortly, thereafter 16:30.
In
the meantime we wer e making and r ecording IR
measurements of the moon so we have 12 pictures of
the moon on the three camera backs using 3400 film,
3401 f ilm, and 8443 film.
And that was sequence 3
with the Questar lens, visual acquisition mode .
Now; we did not track with the per iscope .
We found
that the boresight was good enough and we didn ' t
want to mess anything up so Gordo did all the
tracking with the r eticle .
Cooper
We mentioned before, but we might menti,m again that
when the reticle was exactly bor esighted on some
object like the moon or a star so was the Questar
lens. It was right on the money.
Conrad
Yes, r eally good boresight.
Cooper
And t he radar was also right on.
Conrad
D-4/D- 7, 422 was done at the sa1J?~ t.i;ae.
Do you want
·to cover that now seeing they were done together, or
do you want to wait until we get over into D- 4?
