The Apollo 13 mission launched on April 11, 1970.
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.
The Apollo space mission was planed by N.A.S.A.
Apollo 13 was not invented; it was a NASA mission that took place in 1970. Apollo 13 was the seventh crewed mission in the Apollo space program and was intended to land on the Moon, but an oxygen tank explosion forced the mission to be aborted.
The mission was named Apollo 13 because it was the 13th mission in the Apollo program lineup. The number 13 was traditionally considered unlucky, but NASA continued the mission numbering sequence as planned.
The Apollo 13 mission used approximately 20,050 gallons of fuel.
