Why didn't they check the ship before left off on Apollo 13?
The ultimate cause of the Apollo 13 explosion (a thermostat that wasn't designed for the 68volt ground power which, when applied, fused the contacts of the thermostat open, forcing the tank heater to stay on, and increasing the temperature inside the tank to nearly 1,000 degrees, thereby melting the insulation off the wiring of the tank stirring fan circuit, which then sparked when activated) is not something that would have been caught during a ground inspection, which was actually done. Even they had wanted to examine the thermostat, the oxygen tank was not designed to be opened, and the thermostat was inside the tank.
