Heroism in space is the legacy of the lunar mission Apollo 13. On Apr 11, 1970, astronauts Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack port Swigert were launched into space as the team of Apollo 13. Their mission, like the missions of Apollo 11 and Apollo 12, was to explore the lunar surface. But that mission was never completed. Because they began the task for landing on the Moon, the spacecraft was rocked with a violent explosion. Oxygen began pouring out of the Service Module, and the spacecraft began to lose power. Jim Lovell radioed Quest Control with the now-famous words, "Houston, we've a challenge." All around the globe, people followed the plight of the astronauts. Richard Hilliard examines the turmoil of Apollo 13, one of the fantastic survival reports of the area years, in a lively text.
