[00:00:00,000] And I'm going to get the brilliant blue of sun rising in the east. [00:00:06,000] The bright blue band underneath all this haze layer. [00:00:11,000] I can see the haze layer. [00:00:15,000] And the bright band of light theme arcation coming underneath it. [00:00:21,000] Quite distinctive. [00:00:30,000] As a faint, good, is where there are clouds apparently. [00:00:46,000] After a while, I face 7, ready and loud and clear. [00:01:01,000] After a while, I face 7, ready and loud and clear. [00:01:05,000] Roger, understand. Roger, I'm just small and forward, 180-degree approaching sun rise over. [00:01:15,000] Roger. [00:01:25,000] Small in and as the particles drift away from you, small in and forward, in a flight they appear brilliant white without being all in them. [00:01:35,000] They appear to move on out, turn around, back to the flight path. [00:01:41,000] Come in here, I don't think. Roger, you haven't seen the bacon at this time. [00:01:46,000] Negative, I still haven't seen the bacon. Sure. [00:01:54,000] There was considerable noise, though, that something were departing. [00:01:58,000] Again, sir, there was considerable noise of the little doors, like those doors blowing open, so I assume the bacon has departed. [00:02:06,000] Roger, understand. [00:02:14,000] Hey, I'm Lux, real good on the ground. All right, Roger. [00:02:44,000] Okay, you confirm TV control switch to off. Roger, TV control is off. [00:02:51,000] Roger, TV control is off. [00:03:06,000] We have a slight decrease in the pool links on the DC current, all we do go through. [00:03:14,000] All right, you're DC current. Roger, main bus is 24. [00:03:20,000] Roger, lady, 28.5. Roger. [00:03:45,000] Hey, good. A girl is wired. Did you ever hear me? [00:03:50,000] I'm not getting that yet. I'm planning to do shortly here, though. [00:03:58,000] All right, your information systems last computations on fuel at Y, give you 88 auto 98 manual, which is somewhat better than you're indicating on board. [00:04:13,000] Roger, on board, I'm indicating 9.6 and 1.0.2. [00:04:34,000] Oh, boy, what a beautiful shot of Florida. [00:04:40,000] Roger, let's get them here one more, too. [00:04:43,000] Roger, the old state is clear. I can see just about off. [00:04:49,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:05:18,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:05:43,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:05:55,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:06:24,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:06:52,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:07:02,000] There's been a beautiful view coming over Florida. [00:07:21,000] It is below me. It's quite a brownish, reddish-brown, and a set of altitude above the ground. [00:07:32,000] Got my fiery-pitched-down thruster. I get a shower of these little fireflies. [00:07:39,000] It is a lot. It's quite bright, quite discernible. [00:07:46,000] One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, right. [00:07:53,000] Here's to be about ten to twelve miles away. [00:08:00,000] I'm keeping it directly in the window. [00:08:05,000] I have to order a second magnitude star now.

[Music] [00:01:43,880] clouds on the earth the lower changing color are getting quite light [00:02:13,880] I am there on the day side, decided not yet quite out [00:02:43,840] and I am observing stars, the earth is light below me, the sun is still behind me [00:02:52,180] the sky looks dark above me and I can see stars very distinctly
