They had to save their batteries and had to cut elect-city in the fear of another explosion.

Why did the crew of Apollo 14 get bumped up to Apollo 13?
Alan Shepard and his crew was supposed to fly Apollo 13, but he got an ear infection close to the launch, so the crew of Apollo 14 were moved up a place allowing Alan Shepard to fly Apollo 14. The reason the whole crew switched was because they trained with each other and were put together to compliment each others skills.
Apollo 2 crew?
Apollo 2 was an unmanned mission, so it had no crew.
Apollo 13 why was Alan not allowed to command the mission?
The problem with the Apollo 13 , was the commander was alright so there was no need for Alan B. Shepherd to join the crew. mattingly was sick. So Swigert replaced him.
Who was the crew of Apollo 3?
Apollo 3 was a test flight so it did not have any crew at all.
What astronout did not fly the Apollo 13?
Well, The crew that was supposed to go on Apollo 13 was Alan Sheppard's crew, but he got an ongoing ear infection so he and his crew got bumped. Afterwards, Jim Lovell and his crew (Fred Haise, and Ken Mattingly) were assigned for the Apollo 13 mission, but because the doctors thought Ken Mattingly was going to have the measles, he got bumped from the mission and was replaced with Jack Swigert. Hope this helps! :)

Was the Apollo moon missions fake?
No, they were not - the first moon landing left Cape Canaveral in Florida on 16th July, 1969 with the crew of Apollo 11 landing on the moon four days later. Between July 1969 and December 1972 there were (in total) six manned moon landings made by Apollo 11, Apollo 12, Apollo 14, Apollo 15, Apollo 16 and finally Apollo 17. Apollo 13 was forced to return to Earth when an explosion in the rocket occurred when the crew were halfway to the moon but fortunately the crew survived and returned to Earth safely. There is even a movie about the Apollo 13 moon mission so that's evidence the moon landings were not faked.
Did apollo13 get to the moon?
A Saturn V rocket blasted them from the earth, and the Apollo spacecraft took them the rest of the journey. This consisted of a command module, where the crew were located, and the service module.
Was Apollo 13 successful in its purpose?
Well, it kept its crew alive... job 1! But it did not land them on the Moon, so I wouldn't call the trip successful.
What moons or planets have the Apollo 13 studied?
The Apollo 13 mission was part of NASA's Apollo program, which was designed to land men on the Earth's moon. Apollo 13 failed, however, due to an explosion in one of their oxygen tanks. The crew survived and returned to Earth, but they never landed on the moon. They did take pictures of the moon, however, so it could be said, in response to your question, that they studied Earth's moon.
Why was Ken Martingale removed from the prime crew?
Ken Mattingly was removed from the prime crew of Apollo 13 due to concerns about his potential exposure to German measles. There was a chance that he could be a carrier and infect the other crew members, so he was replaced by Jack Swigert for the mission.
How many survivors where there in the Apollo 13?
There were no casualties on Apollo 13. So there were 3 survivors, which was everybody on the spacecraft.
Why is ken scrubbed from Apollo 13?
Thomas Ken Mattingly was sick with jaundiceand so John L Swigert who was the back up crew member took his place for the mission.
