Nope...apparently, there was some residual vapors from the fuel system, so they’re venting the area to be sure there’s no nasty fumes in the area.

NDO, fuel fumes. It’s not a leak, just to be cautious. Looking ok.

They say it’s vapors, but they’re waiting on Pop-a-Lock.

Maybe landing with fuel on board is a bad idea?

The Boeing Starliner does too. When it landed it let out a huge plume of it.
To: Pollard
It it was real NASA in the 60’s, they would have busted out a torch and burned off any offending gases.

Then why are the outside crew members not wearing full respirators.
Looks like they are wearing Wuhan Virus mask.

Most of them ran down and a few came back with respirators.

Didn’t they just blow the hatch off at sea and do the astronaut recovery out there in the old days?
Guess they weren’t toting NT0 back then

Only one actually blew off (Mercury’s Liberty Bell 7). The rest were opened normally.
