MARK it. It just crossed through the -
Mark.
We got it.
let's call it the XZ plane of the spacecraft.
One unique thing about it, Bob, is that it's got
two flashes.
As it comes around in - in rhythmic
fashion, you get a very bright flash; and then
you get a dull flash.
And then it'll come around
with a bright flash, and then a dull flash.
That's the side and - of the S-IVB - and then the
engine bell, Gene.
The commander doesn't think that I can see the
engine bell on that thing.
Roger, Ja.ck.
Is that with the monocular you're
looking at it?
He couldn't see the engine bell if he had 10 monoc
ulars.
Okay.
I've got the cable restowed now.
Say again, Ron.
And, Gene, where's your blindfold? ...
Bob, couple of revolutions ago when I was looking
at it, I had a much brighter view and I believe
I was looking at it broadside.
It looks to me like
it may be flashing more or less end-on now.
It's
much, not - not as bright, although it's getting
brighter.
But it's not as bright now as it was
awhile ago.
Roger, Jack.
... we've been noticing that, I think, for about
24 hours or so.
I just - hadn't put it together
as maybe being the S-IVB.
I thought it was just
some other particle out there.
Roger, Jack.
Hey, Robert, what's the final Cowboy score?
