Apollo 13 was the US space program’s "finest hour" as what was on the surface a failure was actually a stunning success. Given little chance of coming home alive, thousands of people came together to develop untested solutions in order to bring the crew back safely.
This transcript of the post-mission crew press conference is signed by Apollo 13 commander James Lovell.



If you are interested, I have a one inch square piece of mylar from the Command Module flown on the ill-fated Apollo 13 Mission. I am interested in selling it. I can be reached by telephone at 250636-9225.
