Thomas Stafford and Eugene Cernan manually controlled Snoopy to regain stability as flight directors noted the unlisted switch would have directed the lander toward the command ship.

President Nixon, in a rare open briefing with about 50 reporters, explained why Warren E. Burger was chosen for the Supreme Court. He said future picks would come from federal judges and scholars, avoid personal friendships, and seek an arms-length relationship with justices. The exchange marked a departure from typical secrecy.
