Gemini VII, Houston. Would you give us a propellant quantity reading?
97:24:11
C
Roger. We're reading 54 percent.
97:24:14
CC
Roger. 54 percent.

Been talking to Spacecraft VI during the sim flights, making the Com checks. Everything is looking real good.
97:24:30
C
Can they read us at all?
97:24:33
CC
They apparently did not read you at all. I read them, and I read you both very well. And I understand that you read them.
97:24:43
C
That's affirm.
97:24:47
CC
Say, here are some more instructions to go with this Test Number 3.

Do you have any idea when he's trying to have them in orbit?

Chris wants to talk to you on that, Jim.

They're still trying to make Sunday at the Cape, Jim, and we're going to talk this thing over tomorrow around noon regarding the sim flight both on the spacecraft and the launch vehicle, and try to make a decision at that time. You have to make a burn approximately 3:41 Central Standard Time, so that will give us plenty of time to get you "ginned up". We're also thinking about having you bring up the platform at that time, because we want to take a look at a higher amperage reading on the fuel cell to get a little better look at the EI curve.
97:25:51
P
Roger. Understand.
