Fred Haise's training-used official disbound NASA manual entitled "Apollo 16, April 16 Launch, Basic LM Timeline," approximately 44 pages, 8.5 x 10.5, dated March 10, 1972, signed on the front cover in blue ballpoint, "My personal training copy—Fred Haise, Apollo 16 BU CDR." Prepared by the Manned Spacecraft Center's Systems Procedures Branch, the timeline book offers a detailed schedule of every task and function to be performed by the Apollo 16 Lunar Module crew, from undocking to the actual lunar landing. In fine condition, with some wear and staining to the covers.
After evading disaster on Apollo 13, Haise remained in the astronaut rotation and served as the backup mission commander for Apollo 16; he was prospectively slated to command Apollo 19 prior to the mission's cancelation. After completing his Apollo 16 backup assignment, Haise moved to the Space Shuttle program and conducted the Space Shuttle Enterprise's Approach and Landing Tests in 1977.
