About this product

Product Information

This multimedia disc documents the 13th Apollo mission, which was scheduled to have been the third lunar landing but instead nearly ended in terrible disaster. The story is told here through photographs, movies, and audio clips, arranged in an easy-to-access format. On April 13, 1970, while still 200,000 miles from home, the spacecraft suffered an explosion and a great deal of oxygen was lost. The crew was forced to conserve food, air, and fuel. They made several on-the-spot decisions, "steering" by the position of the sun because navigational systems were damaged in the explosion. The craft made a pass around the moon and headed back home, finally landing safely in the Pacific Ocean, four days after the explosion. In addition to 90 minutes of video and audio, the disc also offers 3D animations to simulate a number of spacecraft maneuvers and procedures.
