Hearing an explosion is already pretty startling, but imagine hearing one on a spacecraft. _Quite possibly the worst place in the universe to hear that_
Shrek Wazowski yeah too bad when it exploded it was louder and they were all in the same place so you know I’m pretty sure they took it seriously right away
When you realise how little technology they had compared to today, this survival is a bit of luck and a considerable amount of judgement and team work.
@@xhiltonx you completely missed the point. The technology is unused for over 50 years now. We are not even sure of it still works or not. That's why NASA says that we lost the technology. Yes, we could bring in new technology, but it'll need a lot of resources and money, something which can be used to go farther than the moon. So why waste time going back to the moon when you could be aiming for something even greater
Can we all agree that Jim Lovell is a living legend? Four missions, held the record for the longest time in space for years, and he gave up the chance to be the second man on the Moon to Buzz Aldrin on Apollo 11 out of kindness. Truly a living legend
I agree that Jim Lovell is a legend, but he didn't give up the chance to be on Apollo 11. Neil Armstrong made the decision (and probably regretted it). Read Armstrong's only authorized biography.
Imagine being Jim and going to the on apollo 8 and saying, “I could be down there.” Then going a second time and saying, “ I should be down there.” I feel so bad for him. He’s still one of my all time favorite people.
Jim has been walking on Earth all these years since Apollo 13. It is disappointing that he did not walk on the moon, but every step he takes on Earth is wonderful!
Watching these fine men speak is like watching a WWII veteran speak about their experience. They´re getting fewer every year, but their stories are so important for both the now and the future. I truly value these men.

@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.
Well they knew they were risking their lives to go to the moon. Now they might die without getting their dream of walking on it. That had to be soul crushing.

Jim Lovell is my favorite astronaut. He, Jack, and Fred were faced with one of the worst case scenarios and stayed calm and collected through it all. With the help of thousands of people they were able to survive the ordeal. I encourage you all to read the book, it's way better than the film and this is coming from someone who loved the film.
You're welcome, also check out Apollo 8 by the same author. Jim Lovell said that flying to the Moon on Christmas of 1968 on Apollo 8 was the highlight of his career.
I was incredibly honored to meet Gene Kranz a few years ago at Lonestar Flight Museum in Houston for the induction of Chris Craft into the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame. Not only did I get to meet him, shake his hand and have him sign my book "Failure Is Not An Option" which he wrote, I got to hear Craft give his speech. 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. This time period in human history is nothing short of spectacular.
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.
Just wouldn't happen , miscalculation wouldn't send you out of earth orbit , they only had to slow down at apoapsis to re enter the atmosphere , a missed decimal point would only make the orbit not small enough to re-enter the atmosphere
This happened years before I was even born but with my love for the movie Apollo 13, I got interested in finding real audio and video footage from the actual crew. Thanks for uploading this, so glad I found it. Thank God the crew made it back to Earth.
Jim Lovell is one of only three men to have flown to the Moon twice. John Young, and Gene Cernan are the other two. Cernan and Young are also the fastest men in human history, along with Tom Stafford. They reached 39,897 km/h (24,791 mph) on May 26, 1969, during their return from the Moon on Apollo 10.
@@You.Tube.Sucks. Cernan was a great guy. Shortly before his death, I sent him a copy of his book, which he inscribed to my little boy. It's probably my favorite possession. The man just never stopped. Rest in peace, Gene.
It’s really amazing watching the real footages of that event how well done it’s the movie. One of my favorites of all times. Great Tom Hanks and Ed Harris acting. Well and Gary Sinise.
Yes, ditto for me too. The movie is in my top 5 list. The best rescue mission ever by an incredible bunch of engineers with slide rules and duct tape. I hope every space flight now looks for square peg in round hole situations in everything!
Every time I see or read about Apollo 13 and what everyone accomplished bringing the astronauts home, I am nothing if not filled with the greatest pride over the ingenuity, dedication and competence displayed. This is what humans can do when they put their minds towards solving a problem.
50 years ago one of the greatest stories of teamwork, which also made the most amazing survival story out there, happy 50th anniversary week Apollo 13, wish you were with us Jack
That's due to this being quoted inaccurately for decades. Don't know if it was that way before the movie came out, but that incorrect line did make it into the movie and that's probably a large factor causing it to continue.
@@idekwtnms5767 The entire mission went amazing, and the dragon landed perfectly. I think you confused the other dragon test months prior when it did explode upon landing, or perhaps the tens of other times the rockets didn't land perfectly.
I saw Fred Haise Last night at Space Center Houston. He was Fantastic and extremely bright Even at 88 years of age. I would trust him to pilot me and my family. I remember the flight of Apollo13 Even though I was only 6 years old. It was a great Honor to meet Captain Haise. Great respect.
i mean..no words could ever describe this . The grit , the determination to survive and the success. Life's long history... experience and a story of human and science...
The quote is amazing being in the past tense. He's already moved on from the event and into finding solutions. Outstanding mental and emotional skills.
*_Nasa:_* * goes to the moon for the 3rd time * *_World:_* not interesting *_Nasa:_* our astronauts are in danger due to a explosion *_World:_* woah interesting
I don't think he had time for either thought. Part of why they succeeded at bringing them back was that they had absolute tunnel vision on the tasks at hand. There was no room for emotion.
It is amazing how these intelligent and smart people are in one place and they are able to cooperate and coordinate with each other to create a miracle
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.
boogi_playz well we are much closer to the moon and we don't need to wait years or months to go there, i'm not talking about terraforming i'M talking about a moon base, the moonbase can be used to go to mars while needing less fuel n such since the moon has no atmosphere and the gravity on the moon is weaker
@@serne8641 plus terraforming isn't always Needed and even with a moon base trying to establish a mars base would still not be the way to go as phobos and deimos should be explored and have a base built on first so that refueling depots are available
jurgen Kenneth well, in my opinion, i would base it on the reliability of natural resources of the planets. For example, which planet's soil is better or what the weather would be like. I also agree with you about staying with the moon, i guess the circumstances are safer, but not much can be accomplished without the reproduction on species and a good amount of water
Well history was made today, May 30th 2020. The US has launched human to space from US soil for the first time in around 9 years. EDIT: omg.. thanks for almost 300 likes. Never had this much before!

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 .
@@bobmusil1458 Wow , the desperation of Atheists to mock the dead and the speed at which they do it is insane . Considering they failed to make a door that opened properly under strong heat , blame NASA .

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.
Jim Lovell is my hero Apollo 13 is one of the most amazing events in history and I greatly respect everyone involved in getting them back home especially the astronauts that were stuck up there
From what I understand, despite what the movie “Apollo 13”, which is a favorite of mine, displayed of the crew arguing, that’s not at all how it was. They all 100% calmly worked together.
All these people are true heroes. They are now all old men & women but hopefully, none of them will ever be forgotten for their bravery and ingenuity in the most trying of circumstances. Like WWII veterans, they speak humbly about their deeds. But these are all giants who deserve the utmost respect. Godspeed!
I lived through this - from the UK with almost no coverage compared to 11 and ever 12. If we had UA-cam or something similar back then, wow - it would have been different. Last night I watched two launches and landings - from multiple angles, live and repeated. Apollo 13 was horrifically real - distant and impossible to deal with - but they did it ! Majestic !
One of NASA's most accomplished feats. The successful failure of this mission will be remembered for generations to come. One of NASA's finest golden moments.
I am surprised the dude stayed calm when he is thousands of miles away from earth, knowing that there is a very high chance that he will never make it home again.
You are capable of ignoring them, many of them are either religious or just believe a whole host of other conspiracy theories such as moon aliens, Area 51 and 5G rubbish.
Growing up i used to be obsessed with the movie Apollo 13 which is based on this event. I would watvh it constantly on repeat. One day i had watched it 5 times in a row, as soon as it finished, i would rewind and watch it again.
Just watched the movie Apollo 13 and now realised it was actually a real event. Guess I’m very late to the party, but fascinating stuff. Why don’t we do such inspirational stuff these days.
Hearing an explosion is already pretty startling, but imagine hearing one on a spacecraft. _Quite possibly the worst place in the universe to hear that_
Ok but one of the astronauts liked to knock on the side of the craft to mess with the others so it became a boy who cried wolf situation

One of Nasa’s finest moments for sure!!
I do the same as you. Its inspired me my whole life.
fabiollopes god doesn’t exist fool
Your comment was going so well until you threw all this hard work at the foot of an imaginary being
@@lucisano Exactly, that's degrading the hard work and intelligence of the crew claiming they got help from a omnipotent being
@@robtennant98 don't say that. It's his/her belief. Is he/she hurting you by saying that?
The fact that they were able to get home speaks to the brilliance of the crew at NASA and the astronauts themselves.
*Jim Lovell:* Our mission was called "a successful failure," in that we returned safely but never made it to the Moon.
thy did, just not on the moon
Task failed successfully
my favourite comment
I remember first hearing the phrase at the end of the film when I watched it in my eighth grade science class.
- Houston, we have a problem,
- Appolo 13, go ahead.
- There's a woman outside knocking our door, demanding to speak with the manager
😂😂😂😂😂👌
"KAREEEENNNNN"

And her names karen
Lead flight director : we have a KAAARREEENN- mission control: everyone panics
It’s extremely impressive how they managed to stay calm. I would have had a mental breakdown.
Having a mental breakdown is not an option.
@@creamerasant mhm, on another video about this, the narrator said "They knew panicking wouldn't do anything but waste more time, they knew once they stopped panicking, they would be back to where they started"
@@anderson74 It doesn't make sense "Once they stopped panicking, they would be back to where they started"
@@creamerasant its totally an option and I would’ve had a complete breakdown. And I probably would’ve died (assuming I had the skills to stay alive). I go into total fight or flight when I’m put in life or death situations from past trauma and I mentally flee and I sit frozen shaking. I’d be dead in seconds lol
@@anderson74 ayoo i know the videp you are rffering
Jim Lovell is my favorite astronaut. He, Jack, and Fred were faced with one of the worst case scenarios and stayed calm and collected through it all. With the help of thousands of people they were able to survive the ordeal. I encourage you all to read the book, it's way better than the film and this is coming from someone who loved the film.
I just ordered it! Can't wait to read it. Thanks for the recommendation 👍
You're welcome, also check out Apollo 8 by the same author. Jim Lovell said that flying to the Moon on Christmas of 1968 on Apollo 8 was the highlight of his career.
Trey Baker, i am not sure, but there must be some books about this special mission. Which one do you refer to? Thank you in advance
@@fabiollopes the author is Jeffrey Klueger, it was originally titled The Lost Moon, but now is just Apollo 13
Trey Baker , thank you
A jaw dropping story of endurance, determination and survival . Enormous credit to all involved , shame on the people who say this never happened .
I was incredibly honored to meet Gene Kranz a few years ago at Lonestar Flight Museum in Houston for the induction of Chris Craft into the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame. Not only did I get to meet him, shake his hand and have him sign my book "Failure Is Not An Option" which he wrote, I got to hear Craft give his speech. 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. This time period in human history is nothing short of spectacular.
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.
Imagine forgetting to add a decimal point. Missed the Earth, cast into the void until your oxygen runs out.
Just wouldn't happen , miscalculation wouldn't send you out of earth orbit , they only had to slow down at apoapsis to re enter the atmosphere , a missed decimal point would only make the orbit not small enough to re-enter the atmosphere
@@Jonathan-ol9si they would then be stuck in orbit. To die
Luc Pearl im pretty sure they would have just burned up
Subnautica gang!
@Peeper well at least there’s no Quarantine Enforcement Platform
This happened years before I was even born but with my love for the movie Apollo 13, I got interested in finding real audio and video footage from the actual crew. Thanks for uploading this, so glad I found it. Thank God the crew made it back to Earth.
Probably one of the more impressive maneuvers in human history to get that crew home safe.
Jim Lovell is one of only three men to have flown to the Moon twice. John Young, and Gene Cernan are the other two. Cernan and Young are also the fastest men in human history, along with Tom Stafford. They reached 39,897 km/h (24,791 mph) on May 26, 1969, during their return from the Moon on Apollo 10.
Sadly, now Lovell is the only living person to have flown to the Moon twice, as both Cernan and Young died in the last few years.
To think that's about 7 miles per second is just insane
@@notsojoerogan 420 miles an hour, literally blazing it
RIP Gene Cernan 💔
@@You.Tube.Sucks.
Cernan was a great guy. Shortly before his death, I sent him a copy of his book, which he inscribed to my little boy. It's probably my favorite possession. The man just never stopped. Rest in peace, Gene.
It’s really amazing watching the real footages of that event how well done it’s the movie. One of my favorites of all times. Great Tom Hanks and Ed Harris acting. Well and Gary Sinise.
Yes, ditto for me too. The movie is in my top 5 list. The best rescue mission ever by an incredible bunch of engineers with slide rules and duct tape. I hope every space flight now looks for square peg in round hole situations in everything!
Eees de madrid?
Eres de madrid?
I must have watched it a dozen times now and it still makes me cry.
Every time I see or read about Apollo 13 and what everyone accomplished bringing the astronauts home, I am nothing if not filled with the greatest pride over the ingenuity, dedication and competence displayed. This is what humans can do when they put their minds towards solving a problem.
50 years ago one of the greatest stories of teamwork, which also made the most amazing survival story out there, happy 50th anniversary week Apollo 13, wish you were with us Jack
NASA historian Jack will be always with us. He was part of History mankind.
@@frank5891 your right, Jack will always be with us in our spirits
Bit of Mandela effect on this - I’ve always though it was “Houston, we have a problem”
Agreed.
More like Hollywood rewriting historical lines for suspense
ME TOO
That's due to this being quoted inaccurately for decades. Don't know if it was that way before the movie came out, but that incorrect line did make it into the movie and that's probably a large factor causing it to continue.
@viper easy to imagine Jim had a rough time getting the words out when their tin can in the void of space just blew the side out.
Here after SpaceX and NASA successfully docked onto the ISS
True the whole mission failed the dragon exploded rip
opturkyma wait what?
@@idekwtnms5767 the dragon exploded in a test months ago, I am pretty sure the actual launch went well
@@idekwtnms5767 The entire mission went amazing, and the dragon landed perfectly. I think you confused the other dragon test months prior when it did explode upon landing, or perhaps the tens of other times the rockets didn't land perfectly.
@@viptech_c5286 i now im just joking
I never saw the interview with the crew, the integrity of the crew is truly remarkable
Such a tense moment turned into a lovely story.
I saw Fred Haise Last night at Space Center Houston. He was Fantastic and extremely bright Even at 88 years of age.
I would trust him to pilot me and my family.
I remember the flight of Apollo13 Even though I was only 6 years old.
It was a great Honor to meet Captain Haise.
Great respect.
It's interesting that Fred Haise is still alive and the actor that played him, Bill Paxton, has died.
Hats off to LEGENDS.
Hats off to frauds.
@@mga59xbd38 Keep playing games, kiddo. You can't take the real life
noziethi radon I appreciate the advice dude, however, do some research yourself on the impossibility of the Apollo missions.
MGA Gamester you seem to be about 12 years old, there is a reason the younger generation believes in conspiracies.
Harvey Davenport why? Is it because of their parents? Boomers and older Gen X are mostly the conspiracy theorist so it makes no sense
I always heard it as “Houston, we have a problem” Game of telephone at its finest
like one/a small step for man, one/a giant leap for mankind
i mean..no words could ever describe this . The grit , the determination to survive and the success. Life's long history... experience and a story of human and science...
Glad to see Mr. Lovell is still going strong. 🙂
More courage and bravery than most folks, that's for sure.
The quote is amazing being in the past tense. He's already moved on from the event and into finding solutions. Outstanding mental and emotional skills.

Imagine what was going through Ken's mind:
"I wish I was up there with the crew..."
"Yeah I'm actually pretty glad I'm down here."
I don't think he had time for either thought.
Part of why they succeeded at bringing them back was that they had absolute tunnel vision on the tasks at hand.
There was no room for emotion.
It is amazing how these intelligent and smart people are in one place and they are able to cooperate and coordinate with each other to create a miracle
I love Jim Lovell, his explanation of everything is great and his voice is so calming
Apollo 13 taught us that even with bad luck, bad omen and even destiny rallying against you, you still must fight even with the slimmest odds.
They did great to return those astronauts bk home ,
Amazing,
I still remember that .
Gene Kranz looks as cool today as he did back in the day, looking good Gene!
Andrew Gurney I’m reading his book - Failure Is Not An Option - at the moment.xx
@@susanlansdell863 it is such a fantastic book Gene Kranz wrote. Absolutely interesting and you wants to read this twice I am sure.
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.
So appreciative I got to see the real air filter used in real life. Great team of engineers they have
12 years before I was born, but it's captured my imagination all my life.
Well done folks. Well done!! 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
Houston, we will first land on Mars, in 2025, and then come back to the Moon.
Long live Earth and our next destination - Mars !
Though its better if we go moon first since we would need less force to get into orbit n stuff
jurgen Kenneth terraforming Luna will be harder than terraforming Mars
boogi_playz well we are much closer to the moon and we don't need to wait years or months to go there, i'm not talking about terraforming i'M talking about a moon base, the moonbase can be used to go to mars while needing less fuel n such since the moon has no atmosphere and the gravity on the moon is weaker
@@serne8641 plus terraforming isn't
always Needed and even with a moon base trying to establish a mars base would still not be the way to go as phobos and deimos should be explored and have a base built on first so that refueling depots are available
jurgen Kenneth well, in my opinion, i would base it on the reliability of natural resources of the planets. For example, which planet's soil is better or what the weather would be like. I also agree with you about staying with the moon, i guess the circumstances are safer, but not much can be accomplished without the reproduction on species and a good amount of water
Well history was made today, May 30th 2020. The US has launched human to space from US soil for the first time in around 9 years.
EDIT: omg.. thanks for almost 300 likes. Never had this much before!
Important to mention "since 2011" because it has been done before
First time a private company sent people to space
How is that making history? Happened multiple times before.
Just so you know Europe launched 3 men in space in April 2020...and they sending people and supplie every month in space :))

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 .
Where was the divine intervention when the astronauts of Apollo 1 were barbecued?
@@bobmusil1458
Wow , the desperation of Atheists to mock the dead and the speed at which they do it is insane .
Considering they failed to make a door that opened properly under strong heat , blame NASA .
@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.
Bringing home the crew of Apollo 13 was the greatest and coolest thing NASA has ever done.
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.
So many lessons to take from this event. One of mankinds crowning acheivements.
Jim 'the legend' Lovell.
3 Brave men who survived with the help of talented, passionate group of people in the control room. Kudos to all... Great teamwork ❤️
Jim Lovell is my hero Apollo 13 is one of the most amazing events in history and I greatly respect everyone involved in getting them back home especially the astronauts that were stuck up there
Hi OwO
We've had a problem was a massive understatement!The film was brilliant too.....
From what I understand, despite what the movie “Apollo 13”, which is a favorite of mine, displayed of the crew arguing, that’s not at all how it was. They all 100% calmly worked together.
Jim lovell, great man.

Good idea I’m gonna watch it too again
All these people are true heroes. They are now all old men & women but hopefully, none of them will ever be forgotten for their bravery and ingenuity in the most trying of circumstances. Like WWII veterans, they speak humbly about their deeds. But these are all giants who deserve the utmost respect. Godspeed!
I lived through this - from the UK with almost no coverage compared to 11 and ever 12. If we had UA-cam or something similar back then, wow - it would have been different. Last night I watched two launches and landings - from multiple angles, live and repeated. Apollo 13 was horrifically real - distant and impossible to deal with - but they did it ! Majestic !
Rescuing them in itself was no less than an achieving a mission,with this i got to have a lot more respect for NASA,love from BHARAT❤
Thanks for putting music over the whole video including these guys talking.
Amazing Apollo missions!
One of NASA's most accomplished feats. The successful failure of this mission will be remembered for generations to come. One of NASA's finest golden moments.
An AMAZING JOB WELL DONE with the technology and the right people in that period of time. I can't imagine that being duplicated now.
The movie was amazing,but seeing the actual events is even better!
Poor Jim Lovell never set foot on the moon but what a feat to even make it back
I am surprised the dude stayed calm when he is thousands of miles away from earth, knowing that there is a very high chance that he will never make it home again.
I had the privilege of going aboard the uss Iwo Jima when she visited Liverpool, in The UK during the 1980`s. It was an awesome day.
That's just scary. "Houston, we've had a problem" words the guys down in ground control never want to hear.
its crazy how brave these astronauts are. props to them

Growing up i used to be obsessed with the movie Apollo 13 which is based on this event. I would watvh it constantly on repeat. One day i had watched it 5 times in a row, as soon as it finished, i would rewind and watch it again.
I have nothing but respect for those men who went to the moon. I couldn’t imagine being in such a cramped environment for such a long time.
for my whole life i thought it goes like this. "Houston, we have a problem"
