Al Bean,
you are going to the moon.
:08:03
Y'all can come along
if you like.
:08:06
13, 12, 11...
:08:09
ten, nine...
:08:12
We have ignition sequence start.
:08:14
The engines are on.
Four, three...
:08:16
two, one, zero.
:08:28
The first few moments after liftoff,
you're vibrating pretty good.
:08:33
- The clock is running.
- Then you really start to move.
:08:44
- Clear the tower.
- Roger. Clear the tower.
:08:47
I got a pitch-and-roll program,
and this baby is really going.
:08:53
Roll complete.
:08:54
- Mark one bravo.
- Got you on that.
:08:58
This thing moves, doesn't it?
:09:00
Baby!
:09:01
We had just over half a minute
of trouble-free launch...
:09:04
and then all hell busted loose.
:09:07
- What the hell was that?
- I just lost a whole bunch of stuff.
:09:09
We just had a whole bunch
of buses drop out.
:09:12
What have we got here?
A/C bus 1 light, all the fuel cells.
:09:15
Okay, Houston,
we just lost the platform, gang.
:09:19
I don't know what happened.
We had everything drop out.
:09:22
I got three fuel cell lights, an A/C bus
light, a fuel cell disconnect...
:09:25
A/C bus overload 1 and 2,
main bus A and B out.
:09:28
We had some big glitch here.
:09:30
- I got A/C.
- You got A/C? Maybe it's the indicator.
:09:33
- What's on the main bus?
- 24 volts. That's low.
:09:36
We've got a short of some kind,
but I can't believe that's accurate.
:09:41
- Flight, EECOM.
- Go, EECOM.
:09:43
I think it's a fuel cell bus failure.
They've been thrown off-line somehow.
:09:46
That must be why we're
getting garbage here.
:09:49
Can they try SCE to aux?
:09:51
Gerry Griffin had never heard
that command before.
:09:54
Most of the people
in Mission Control hadn't.
:09:57
Tell them.
