  • “Houston, we've had a problem” is the now famous phrase radioed from Apollo 13 to Mission Control upon the catastrophic explosion that dramatically changed the mission.
    On the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 13 mission, we recognize the triumph of the mission control team and the astronauts, and look at the lessons learned. The Apollo 13 mission has become known as “a successful failure” that saw the safe return of its crew Commander James (Jim) Lovell Jr., Command Module Pilot John Swigert Jr. and Lunar Module Pilot Fred Haise Jr.
    Thanks to Stephen Slater and Ben Feist/Apollo in Real Time (apolloinrealtime.org/13) for providing additional footage and audio. Thanks for Andy Saunders for providing additional enhanced images.

      @Bilal Khalid this is a conspiracy theory with no scientific basis. Epidemics have existed before the 5g towers. If you are talking about radiation poisoning, that has nothing to do with infecting people and causing the specific simptomes the coronavirus has. Radiation does not spread from person to person, neither does it spread by human saliva. The coronavirus is a mutated version of the sars virus, but 5g towers and radiation are not the ones to blame. Such radiation cannot affect the mutation of viruses, as viruses are not alive, they do not posses the biological tissue to be affected by radiation in such a way it would mutate into this.

This was just a few months before he passed away. It was a very special evening and special event in my life. I highly recommend everyone read that book. It was such an incredible read that I was saddened when I finished it and it overwhelmed me emotionally. Fill my eyes with tears. These men were of a different bread.

      I had a similar experience although not related to Apollo 13. Back in 2000 I had the honor or meeting Neil Armstrong. At the time I worked for a local TV station in Cincinnati and Armstrong lived in the area. I went to his house and shot and interview for some awards video (not for broadcast). I took a book along I read, Moon Shot written by Alan Shepard and Deke Slayton. Upon leaving I asked if he'd sign my book. He did! He said to me, "I better not see this on eBay". I assured him he would not and to this day I still have it in my possession. I also got my picture taken with him. Before I departed I asked him one question, "what was the first airplane you ever flew"? He said it was an Aeronca Champ. I told him I've actually flown that airplane with a flight instructor when I was getting my pilots license. How cool is that? I flew the same airplane Neil Armstrong learned to fly in. What a special moment that was.

    I was 8 years old when this happened, and I remember it well. Seems like only a few years ago. It was a life lesson in teamwork that I fear would fail if it happened today.

      Doesn't he?? I always thought Gene was the coolest cat. I've been such a nerd with space stuff all my life. Watched tons of documentaries on it. Gene is just legendary. And I thought Ed Harris did a great job with him.

    When Lost Moon was released I got to check off an incredible item on my life bucket list. I was living in Dallas and had previously attended classes at FunEd. I went and got my mail and in it was an invitation card from FunEd for the first 50 people to call would get to attend a private wine and cheese meet and greet with Jim
    Lovell as he was there promoting his book. I dont think I have ever run so fast in my life back to my apt and on the phone. Got it!!! I attended the party and got to sit in a private section for his talk. I have met one of my true heroes. To me bigger than life. I was in such awe. When I think back to that time I still am. Always will be.

    Considering they were drifting in the huge emptiness of Space with damaged equipment and losing power and still managed to get back to Earth shows the inmense and amazing work everyone put to bring them back and the titanic amount of Divine Intervention on that mission .

      @Unusual Stranger You started this! The desperation of Theists to convince everybody of their childish beliefs is insane.
      You see amazing technicians saving some lives - you call it divine intervention.
      You see some technicians making a mistake - human error. God hat no time to intervene - he was busy killing children in Africa with Malaria.
