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 ALDRIN (CONT'D) be some pretty good H-dots at about 4 minutes and 30 seconds at about 2200 H-dot; and I don't think it was off more than 10 ft/sec at that point, so much closer than we've seen in any simulations, right in the groove. ARMSTRONG Had we gone to manual TLI, then we would have probably been a little bit off in pitch. I think we had soon seen that our H-dot was beginning to get out of bounds and we made a correction, but we should understand that a little better. 5.2 S-IVB PERFORMANCE AND ECO ARMSTRONG S-IVB performance and engine cut-off were outstanding. ALDRIN The time of the burn. ARMSTRONG Burn time was not quite book value, there. Did we write that down in our checklist? Burn time? Give them a burn-status report? ALDRIN As I recall, it was a little longer than normal. ARMSTRONG No, as I remember, it was like a couple of seconds off in burn time, but I just don't recall now what the difference was; but other than that, it went very well. ALDRIN Let me just note some numbers here that was recorded at freezing the DSKY after cut-off and you are bound to miss ## CONFIDENTIAL
