When a violent explosion tore through the fragile skin of the Apollo 13 spacecraft 200,000 miles from Earth in April 1970, NASA mounted the most dramatic rescue mission in the history of human exploration.
Wow – that brought back some memories. I’m kinda glad that as a child, I watched the unfolding drama as a sort of serious but manageable adventure. I recall naively believing that they’d get back home, never fully realizing how close it was nor the full extent of the serious dangers those guys were facing and the extraordinary efforts involved in pulling off this amazing rescue!
oh bugger i always get these threads too late
