This is Volume 1 of NASA's Apollo 11 Technical Crew Debriefing, dated July 31, 1969. The Mission Operations Branch of the Flight Crew Support Division at the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston prepared it, and it was originally classified Confidential. In it Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins go phase by phase through suiting, launch, powered flight, Earth orbit and lunar surface activities. They comment on suit fit, vibration, checklists, lunar dust, footing and poor sleeping conditions in the lunar module. A section titled Visual Sightings appears in the table of contents.

## CONFIDENTIAL ARMSTRONG Skirt SEP, as I recall, was heard or felt or some observable characteristic, in addition to the light going out at the time, and I can't remember if it was a bump or a noise, but there was in addition to the fact. ALDRIN This would give you a clue if the lights were not working, if something had happened at that point. ARMSTRONG S-II engine ignition went smooth. ALDRIN Now, that stuff that went oozing forward. COLLINS That staging - well, it was just like staging on the Titan. It seemed like to me that at staging the windows lit up with yellow, almost like a flash of light. ALDRIN Well, let's see - S-IC. I didn't like it either, because we were tossed forward, and I couldn't look out the hatch. You're the only one that had a window at that point. I don't remember anyone saying too much about that. We'll get to that a little later on the S-IC. ## CONFIDENTIAL
