You could track the Polaris launch in PULSE.
Borman
You could track everything in PULSE except the reentry
vehicle. The reentry vehicle was pret ty fast and you
had to go t o DI:-tECT.

I have to give credit to the personnel, the experimentor ,
Brentnall.
:Borman
He hust l ed and he did his work.
He made sure that we knew
what we were doing. It was well done.
Lovell
This is the first mi ssile t hat was ever l aunched
from a submarine, their ORI, I guess.
To launch
at the exact ti.me so that we would be in the exact
position, I thought was an amazing piece of coordination
among all people involved.
:Borman
I just hope t hey got all the data.
