Gee, thanks! ops: I was hoping that many more people would contribute. There must be heaps of jokes tucked away in the Apollo records. Where are all the ones from those Apollo 12 jokesters?


Another from Apollo 11, sometime between 26:44 and 29:00 GET:

Collins (getting tongue-tied in zero gravity): My compliments to the chef. That salad salmon is outstanding.
Houston (McCandless): Roger, understand that's the salad salmon, over.
Collins: Something like that, salmon salad.


And during the first trial TV transmission at 10:32 GET when the TV camera is pointing at the eastern Pacific Ocean and shows only a small area of land beneath the clouds:

Apollo 11 (probably Aldrin): Hey, Houston, do you suppose you could turn the Earth a little bit so we could get a little bit more than just water?
Houston (Duke): Roger, Eleven. I don't think we've got much control over that. Looks like you'll have to settle for the water.
