What is the origin of the saying 'Houston we have a problem'?

These are a variation of the first words spoken from the Apollo 13 spacecraft to Mission Control in Houston following the explosion of an oxygen tank in the service module caused by an electrical and overheating problem. The astronauts had heard and felt the explosion and had seen the warning light on their console. This triggered a successful international effort to return the three astronauts alive to Earth. The saying gained popularity after the 1995 movie about the mission.

Both the Command Module pilot Jack Swigert and the Commander Jim Lovell made calls to the Capcom Charlie Duke in Mission Control using almost the same wording. Here is the transcript of the actual dialogue.

Swigert: 'Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here.'

Duke: 'This is Houston. Say again please.'

Lovell: 'Houston, we've had a problem. We've had a main B bus undervolt.'
