Apollo 13

The Apollo 13 crew had to ration their limited water and food supplies to ensure survival. They primarily subsisted on a liquid diet of rehydrated food packs and used the Lunar Module as a lifeboat, which had some supplies to sustain them until they could return safely to Earth.

No, Apollo 13 did not re-enter the Earth's atmosphere in low Earth orbit (LEO). The spacecraft made a free return trajectory around the Moon, using its gravitational pull to slingshot back towards Earth. Apollo 13 re-entered the atmosphere at a higher speed than LEO re-entries due to its return path from the Moon.

The Apollo 13 command module was about 10 feet 7 inches (3.2 meters) in diameter and 12 feet 10 inches (3.9 meters) tall.

Fred Haise is a retired American astronaut who was a member of the Apollo 13 mission that experienced a critical failure en route to the moon. He survived the mission, despite the life-threatening situation, and continued his career in the space program before retiring.

Ken Mattingly had to miss the Apollo 13 mission because he was exposed to German measles, which was a concern due to the risk of spreading the infection to the other crew members. Mattingly was replaced by Jack Swigert just days before the mission launch.

The Apollo 13 mission utilized radio communications to transmit signals between the spacecraft and Mission Control on Earth. They used high-frequency radios and antennas on the spacecraft to communicate with tracking stations on Earth, which in turn relayed the signals to Mission Control. This allowed for real-time voice communication and data exchange during the mission.

Apollo 13 wanted to go to the moon as part of NASA's mission to land astronauts on its surface. The mission aimed to further NASA's space exploration goals and scientific research. However, due to an onboard explosion, the mission had to be aborted, and the crew had to focus on safely returning to Earth.

Apollo 1 was never launched because a cabin fire during a pre-launch test on January 27, 1967, tragically claimed the lives of astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee. The report following the investigation highlighted numerous design and safety flaws in the spacecraft, prompting a redesign of the Apollo spacecraft before further missions were attempted.

The Saturn C-1 (also known as the Saturn 1) was only used for ten flights near the beginning of the Apollo Program, to test various aspects of the Apollo spacecraft and other technology. There were never any manned launches.

Pencil and paper, and a radio link back to NASA where they could talk to men with slide rules.

The Apollo 1 fire occurred on January 27, 1967. It was a tragic event that resulted in the loss of the lives of three astronauts: Virgil "Gus" Grissom, Edward H. White II, and Roger B. Chaffee.

The Apollo Guidance Computer on Apollo 13 had 64 KB of memory available for storing programs and data. This memory was used to execute the spacecraft's guidance software and calculations needed for the mission.

An explosion in the o2 tanks on the way to the moon forced them to abort the landing mission. The Apollo 13 spacecraft made it back to earth safe but only bt the grace of God and some really good engineers at NASA. Please see the Ron Howard movie. It is very accurate.

No astronauts were killed in the Apollo 13 mission. The crew survived a life-threatening situation when an oxygen tank exploded onboard the spacecraft, but they were able to return safely to Earth with the help of ground control.

"Apollo 13" was released in 1995. It is a film directed by Ron Howard, starring Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, and Bill Paxton, based on the true story of the third NASA manned mission to the moon in 1970.

Apollo 7 did not land on the Moon; it was the first crewed mission in NASA's Apollo program and orbited the Earth for 11 days in 1968. The crew splashed down in the Atlantic Ocean upon completing their mission.

The cost of the Apollo 13 mission, which included the spacecraft, was approximately $355 million in 1970. Adjusted for inflation, this would be around $2.5 billion in today's currency.

Houston told Apollo 13 to shut down the command module and transfer the astronauts to the lunar module, as the command module's oxygen supply was compromised. They were also instructed to make the safest possible reentry into Earth's atmosphere.

Apollo 11 was the first mission to land on the moon, with astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin becoming the first humans to walk on its surface on July 20, 1969.

The Apollo spacecraft traveled approximately 25,000 miles per hour (40,000 km/h) on its journey to the moon. The spacecraft had to reach this high velocity to escape Earth's gravitational pull and reach the moon.

Yes indeed they did as i had a first hand look at the Apollo 13 capsule in the hanger after it was recovered (APRIL 17 1970 in JUNE1970.later that capsule ended up in the back of a nasa building as just junk .i don't know where it is now

The Apollo 13 incident occurred in 1970.

Apollo 13 is the mission that famously experienced an explosion in its Service Module while en route to the moon in 1970. The explosion led to the mission being aborted, and the astronauts had to use the Lunar Module as a "lifeboat" to return safely to Earth.
