Title: 055:52:03 Great work synching those Apollo 13 tank pressures!

To Ben and whoever else helped, that is a fantastic idea on putting the cryo tank pressure chart in the video window as the problem unfolds.  I love how the scroll is synchronized with GET.  I'd love to see more of this sort of thing with the future missions, showing telemetry at interesting times.  Innovative and well done!

Thanks very much! It was Noah Petro's idea to sync it up somehow and the video window seemed the obvious choice. Sadly, we don't have any of the original mission telemetry anymore. The tapes were recycled a long time ago.

Sorry to hear about not having the telemetry data tapes.  At least there's some data on paper, as you found there.  I'm going to go through some of that to replicate the kinds of charts for Flight Controllers to use in the simulator.  Glad y'all posted a link to the PDF.
