:39:00
Yeah. It really feels great.
:39:03
It's unbelievable.
Man.

:39:05
I don't know if anyone in Houston
would have criticized Pete...

:39:08
but we were
on the far side of the moon.

:39:11
And they had no way of knowing.
:39:16
So, for a few moments
on Apollo 12...

:39:20
the lunar module pilot
actually piloted the lunar module...

:39:24
thanks to my good friend,
Pete Conrad.

:39:30
Howdy, fellows!
:39:33
Jesus! Did you have to bring back
half the moon with you?

:39:38
You ain't messing up
my nice, clean spacecraft.

:39:40
Strip down and wipe yourselves off
before you come in here.

:39:43
I mean it. Go.
:39:46
He's right. You're filthy.
:39:54
Welcome home, fellows.
:39:55
Can I get you anything to drink?
Water? Any beverage at all?

:40:03
Careful not to flip any breakers
with anything hanging out.

:40:06
Attitude: Dead minimum.
:40:08
When we were out of our suits...
:40:09
we had to strap in
and jettison the lunar module.

:40:12
- Spacecraft control SCS.
- All right.

:40:14
We're all set to jettison the LEM
in about a minute.

:40:18
You know,
if we were to lose the hatch...

:40:23
when we blow the LEM...
:40:25
and one day someone was to find us
floating around up here like this...

:40:29
they might be pretty confused.
:40:34
At least we'll go out of this world
the same way we came in.

:40:39
You two.
:40:41
You didn't come into the world
in that suit?

:40:44
Man, I hope not.
:40:46
After a day
of lunar orbit photography...

:40:48
getting stereo photos of possible
landing sights for Apollo 13 and 14...

:40:53
and when every piece
of equipment was stowed...

:40:54
and checked off the flight plan...
:40:58
we prepared for the big burn
that would take us home.
