A Historic Mission: Apollo 13 Astronaut Fred Haise - Astro Live
Astronaut Fred Haise served as lunar module pilot for the mission, which was originally scheduled to be a ten-day trip to the Fra Mauro region of the moon. Approximately 55 hours into the flight, the service module’s cryogenic oxygen system ruptured, causing the flight plan to change dramatically. Haise and fellow crewmen James A. Lovell and John L. Swigert worked closely with Houston ground controllers to convert their lunar module "Aquarius" into an emergency lifeboat, conserving both the electrical power and water needed to ensure their survival and safe return trip back to Earth.The event is hosted and co-produced by John “Das” Galloway, founder of the Kerbal Space Academy.
