CAPCOM: Roger, we copy. It was beautiful from here, Tranquillity. Over.

ALDRIN: We'll get to the details of what's around here, but it looks like a collection of just about every variety of shape—angularity, granularity, about every variety of rock ... The colors-well ... There doesn't appear to be too much of a general color at all; however, it looks as though some of the rocks and boulders [are] going to have some interesting colors to them. Over.

CAPCOM: Rog, Tranquillity. Be advised there are lots of smiling faces in this room and all over the world. Over.

ARMSTRONG: There are two of them up here.

COLLINS: And don't forget one in the command module.... And thanks for putting me on relay, Houston. I was missing all the action.

CAPCOM: Rog, Columbia ... Say something. They ought to be able to hear you....

COLLINS: Roger. Tranquillity Base, it sure sounded great from up here. You guys did a fantastic job.

ARMSTRONG: Thank you. Just keep that orbiting base ready for us up there now.

CAPCOM: Tranquillity Base ... Houston. All your consumables are solid [normal consumptions of fuel and oxygen]. You're looking good in every respect.... Everything is copacetic. Over.

ARMSTRONG: You might be interested to know that I don't think we notice any difficulty at all in adapting to 1/6 g; at least, immediately natural to move in this environment.

CAPCOM: Roger, Tranquillity. We copy. Over.

ARMSTRONG: [Outside the] window is a relatively level plain cratered with a fairly large number of craters of the five- to fifty foot variety and some ridges, small, twenty, thirty feet high, I would guess, and literally thousands of little one- and two-foot craters around the area. We see some angular blocks out several hundred feet in front of us that are probably two feet in size and have angular edges. There is a hill in view, just ... ahead of us, difficult to estimate but might be a half a mile or a mile.
