Apollo 12 Flight Journal goes online. The current journal only consists of the core transcript without commentary. This has been constructed from the merged technical, PAO and onboard transcripts. Also included are the following documents:
The Flight Plan and Launch Operations Checklist were created from the microfilm copy provided by Kent Carter at the US National Archives, Fort Worth.
The following chapters have corrections made after tapes of the Apollo 12 air/ground communications came to light in Australia.
We would like to pass on our sincere thanks to Rosemary Scrivener, whose late husband, Bernie, recorded these tapes at the Honeysuckle Earth Station in Australia during the Apollo 12 mission. Rosemary passed the tapes on to Mike Dinn who digitised them and subsequently sent the resultant files to the Apollo 12 Flight Journal.
