They made it about halfway to the moon, and then one of the oxygen tanks in the service module exploded. It caused the spacecraft to lost electricity and breathing air. Because of this, they canceled the moon landing and used the lander as a lifeboat to make it back to earth.

Apollo 13 was the name of the mission that landed the first men on the moon.
Apollo 13 was a manned mission to the moon that experienced an oxygen tank explosion which severely damaged the spacecraft. The mission had to be aborted, and the crew safely returned to Earth in a dramatic rescue mission.
Apollo 13 is the mission that experienced a critical failure on its way to the moon and had to abort the mission. The crew famously managed to safely return to Earth despite the challenges they faced.
There was only one Apollo mission in 1970: Apollo 13. As it failed to land on the Moon, all missions where suspended until the Apollo 13 event was investigated and the origin of the problem, corrected.
