In "Apollo 13," astronaut Jim Lovell, played by Tom Hanks, was the commander and effectively took the driver's seat after the spacecraft experienced a critical failure. Although he was not originally in charge of piloting the Lunar Module, Lovell had to make crucial decisions to ensure the crew's survival and safe return to Earth. The film highlights the teamwork and expertise of both the astronauts and mission control in overcoming the crisis.
