- NASA must devise a strategy to return Apollo 13 to Earth safely after the spacecraft undergoes massive internal damage putting the lives of the three astronauts on board in jeopardy.
- Stranded 205,000 miles from Earth in a crippled spacecraft, astronauts Jim Lovell, Fred Haise and Jack Swigert fight a desperate battle to survive.
- This is not a dramatization. It is the true story with real historical footage of how all sectors of NASA--including astronauts in the Apollo 13 spacecraft as well as backup astronauts on the ground, electrical and environmental and computer engineers and flight and simulations directors--and even employees of aerospace companies such as Boeing who made components used in the mission--were able to overcome an unforeseen and catastrophic explosion of one of 2 oxygen tanks in the service module due to a short circuit that also ripped open the other oxygen tank. Despite years of intense and comprehensive simulations of possible malfunctions, this extreme failure of oxygen storage and the electrical system seemed at first to signal impending death for the 3 astronauts. By moving into the Lunar module, shutting down most normal functions, and a variety of ingenious technical fixes originating from the combined mental and computational power of thousands of NASA and other staff, these astronauts were barely able to make a safe landing back on Earth before running out of oxygen and freezing to death.
- APOLLO THIRTEEN: SURVIVAL is a cinematic re-telling of an iconic space story. In April 1970, NASA faced the greatest crisis in its history; three astronauts halfway to the moon on a spacecraft that had suffered a catastrophic explosion.
- April 13th, 1970, 180,000 miles from Earth, a devastating malfunction leaves Apollo 13 leaking previous oxygen and its crew of three astronauts facing a life and death crisis. If Mission Control cannot find a way to bring Apollo 13 home, the astronauts will be stranded 200,000 miles from Earth in their dying ship. Now with limited power and supplies on board the spacecraft, the ground teams work around the clocking, engineering creative solutions to overcome carbon dioxide poisoning, dehydration and the freezing temperatures of deep space, to ensure the crew's survival. Using spectacular NASA footage, exclusive interviews with Apollo space scientists and stunning visual effects; this film explores the thirteen remarkable factors that brought the crew safely home, and the full story of the courage and ingenuity that cemented Apollo 13 as NASA's finest hour.
- Apollo 13 was supposed to be the third human spacecraft to successfully land on the moon and return home safely, when, 250,000 miles from earth, these words pierced the vastness of space: "Houston, we have a problem." This documentary uses interviews with the actual astronauts, family members and NASA engineers that were there, combined with archival news footage, to tell the true story of Apollo 13.
- The making of the motion picture "Apollo 13".
- They were 200,000 miles from Earth when an explosion crippled their spacecraft, stranding them, perhaps forever. Relive the thrilling true story of the catastrophic flight of Apollo 13 and the crew's heroic battle against the odds in this documentary, through first-hand accounts from the pilots, their families, and Mission Control.
- Apollo 11 was the moment history changed forever. The mission that carried man to the surface of the moon for the first time set in motion the technological revolution of mankind. Discover the optimistic dreams of NASA during the golden age of space exploration. Through these restored and reimagined archive documentary pieces we are able to chart the early evolution of technology as mankind takes its first steps into the great beyond.
- Astronaut Fred Haise tells the heroic story of Apollo 13 with newly restored mission photographs. Fred Haise tells the story of his early military and NASA careers; the emotional experience of Jack Swigert replacing Ken Mattingly on the crew just days before launch; loss of an engine during launch; the near fatal accident; problems with the increasing CO2 levels and the lithium hydroxide cartridges; mission photography and equipment; and the legacy of Apollo, including his call for human expansion beyond Earth. - Jeremy Theoret - Apollospace LLC
