to the challenge of what he called:

we could beat the Russians to the moon.

They're not rushing things, are they?
You'll be ready in six months?
171
00:10:47,446 --> 00:10:51,359
We'll be ready. l wouldn't want
to be around Al Shepard tonight.
172
00:10:51,417 --> 00:10:54,420
l gotta get over there
and get up to speed on this.

Good job, guys.
You just won the Christmas turkey.

Nice try, Frank.

You really outfoxed them.

How long will it take you
to get to the moon?
228
00:14:27,333 --> 00:14:28,539
Four days.
229
00:14:30,603 --> 00:14:31,979
But that's pretty fast.
230
00:14:32,071 --> 00:14:35,279
See, this is the Saturn 4B booster. . .
231
00:14:35,374 --> 00:14:37,979
and it shoots us away from the Earth. . .
232
00:14:38,644 --> 00:14:42,114
as fast as a bullet from a gun. . .
233
00:14:43,048 --> 00:14:47,087
until the moon's gravity
actually grabs us and pulls us. . .
234
00:14:48,087 --> 00:14:51,659
into a circle around the moon. . .
235
00:14:51,757 --> 00:14:54,328
which is called an orbit. All right?
236
00:14:55,427 --> 00:14:58,407
Fred and l float down the tunnel
into the lunar module. . .
237

238
00:15:00,499 --> 00:15:04,469
Only holds two people,
and it's just for landing on the moon.
239
00:15:04,536 --> 00:15:07,482
And l take the controls, steer it around. . .
240
00:15:07,539 --> 00:15:09,541
and l fly it down. . .
241
00:15:09,708 --> 00:15:13,212
adjusting it here, the attitude there,
pitch, roll. . .
242
00:15:13,445 --> 00:15:17,188
for a nice, soft landing on the moon.
243
00:15:17,549 --> 00:15:20,962
Better than Neil Armstrong.
Way better than Pete Conrad.
244
00:15:26,458 --> 00:15:29,370
Did you know the astronauts in the fire?
245
00:15:32,231 --> 00:15:35,439
Yeah. l knew the astronauts in the fire.
All of them.
246
00:15:39,405 --> 00:15:41,441
Could that happen again?
247
00:15:42,741 --> 00:15:45,721
Well, l'll tell you something about that fire.
248
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:47,951
A lot of things went wrong.
249
00:15:49,648 --> 00:15:51,252
The door.
250
00:15:53,118 --> 00:15:57,327
JlM: lt's called the hatch. They couldn't
get it open when they needed to get out.
251
00:15:57,423 --> 00:15:59,266
That was one thing.
252
00:16:01,460 --> 00:16:04,338
A lot of things went wrong in that fire.
253
00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:08,678
Did they fix it?
254
00:16:09,368 --> 00:16:11,871
Yes, absolutely. We fixed it.
255
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:14,511
lt's not a problem anymore.
256
00:16:25,217 --> 00:16:28,220
l can't believe they still have you
doing public appearances.
257
00:16:28,287 --> 00:16:32,599
Well, Henry Hurt was all over me.
258
00:16:33,459 --> 00:16:36,462
With a training schedule this tight,
they shouldn't be asking.
259
00:16:36,562 --> 00:16:38,939
lt's the program, Marilyn.
You know, it's NASA.
260

l was looking
at the kids' school schedule coming up.

lt's a very busy week.
268
00:17:13,532 --> 00:17:16,808
l'm thinking about not going to the launch.
269
00:17:22,841 --> 00:17:24,684
The kids need me at home.
270
00:17:25,244 --> 00:17:28,384
Marilyn, we've had these kids
for a while now.
271
00:17:29,181 --> 00:17:32,093
They've never kept you
from coming to the other launches.
272
00:17:32,184 --> 00:17:34,527
But your mother just had this stroke.
273
00:17:34,586 --> 00:17:35,894
Mom's fine.
274
00:17:35,988 --> 00:17:38,400
lt's not like l've never been to a launch.
275
00:17:38,490 --> 00:17:40,902
The other wives have not done three.
276
00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:44,500
l just don't think l can go through all that.
277
00:17:49,034 --> 00:17:51,844
l'll just be glad when this one's over.
278
00:17:54,573 --> 00:17:57,212
You're gonna miss a hell of a show.
279
00:18:06,151 --> 00:18:08,255
JlM: Hey, guys. See you in a few weeks.
280
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,027
Take care. Bring us back a moon rock.
281
00:18:14,993 --> 00:18:16,233
[Jet engine roaring]
282
00:18:37,983 --> 00:18:41,760
PHlL: The number 1 3 doesn't bother you?
FRED: Only if it's a Friday.
283
00:18:43,055 --> 00:18:46,525
PHlL: Apollo 13, lifting off
at 1 300 hours and 1 3 minutes. . .
284
00:18:46,625 --> 00:18:49,628
and entering the moon's gravity on April 1 3?
285
00:18:50,229 --> 00:18:53,733
Ken Mattingly here has been doing
some scientific experiments. . .
286
00:18:53,832 --> 00:18:55,834
regarding that very phenomenon.
287
00:18:56,301 --> 00:18:59,077
Yes, well, l had a black cat. . .

under the lunar module ladder.
lt didn't seem to be a problem.
290
00:19:04,643 --> 00:19:06,622
We're considering a letter we got. . .
291
00:19:06,712 --> 00:19:09,920
which said we ought to take a pig with us
for good luck.
292
00:19:11,116 --> 00:19:14,426
Does it bother you that the public
regards this flight as routine?
293
00:19:14,486 --> 00:19:18,434
There's nothing routine about flying
to the moon. l can vouch for that.
294
00:19:20,726 --> 00:19:23,468
l think that an astronaut's last mission. . .
295
00:19:23,562 --> 00:19:27,237
his final flight is always very special.
296
00:19:28,667 --> 00:19:30,840
Why is this your last, Jim?
297
00:19:31,436 --> 00:19:34,416
l'm in command of the best ship. . .
298
00:19:34,473 --> 00:19:37,476
with the best crew
that anybody could ask for. . .
299
00:19:37,809 --> 00:19:41,279
and l'll be walking in a place
where there's 400 degrees difference. . .

WALTER: We have that scheduled
for 0900 hours tomorrow.
303

-That's not gonna work, Walter.
-Why?

00:19:59,198 --> 00:20:03,168
JlM: Freddo and l are going over
the lunar surface experiments tomorrow. . .
305
00:20:03,235 --> 00:20:07,478
and Ken's gonna be back in the simulator.
We're going over the flight plan tonight.

DR. CHUCK: We just got some blood work
back from the lab.

Charlie Duke has the measles.
310
00:20:19,818 --> 00:20:21,854
So we need a new backup.
311

DR. CHUCK: You've all been exposed to it.
JlM: l've had the measles.
312
00:20:25,757 --> 00:20:27,668
DEKE: Ken Mattingly hasn't.
313
00:20:28,927 --> 00:20:32,602
JlM: You wanna break up my crew
two days before the launch. . .

read the tone of each other's voices?
315

DR. CHUCK: Ken Mattingly
will get seriously ill. . .

precisely when you and Haise will be
ascending from the lunar surface.

That's a lousy time for a fever.
318
00:20:45,544 --> 00:20:48,456
Jack Swigert has been out
of the loop for weeks.
319
00:20:48,614 --> 00:20:50,753
He's fully qualified to fly this mission.
320
00:20:50,849 --> 00:20:54,694
He's a fine pilot, but when was the last time
he was in a simulator?
321
00:20:55,621 --> 00:20:57,862
l'm sorry, Jim. l understand how you feel.
322
00:20:57,923 --> 00:20:59,868
We can do one of two things.
323
00:20:59,958 --> 00:21:02,836
We can either scrub Mattingly
and go with Swigert. . .
324
00:21:02,928 --> 00:21:06,170
or we can bump all three of you
to a later mission.

and this is flight surgeon horseshit, Deke!
327
00:21:18,744 --> 00:21:22,589
Jim, if you hold out for Ken,
you will not be on Apollo 13.
328
00:21:23,749 --> 00:21:25,558
lt's your decision.

Listen, l gotta take that.
332
00:21:32,991 --> 00:21:35,664
-Why?

00:49:27,898 --> 00:49:29,570
FRED JR. : Daddy was funny.
674
00:49:30,033 --> 00:49:32,410
They might air a few minutes
on the news tonight.
675
00:49:32,469 --> 00:49:34,073
You'd think so.
676
00:49:35,872 --> 00:49:36,975
Bye.
677
00:49:38,208 --> 00:49:41,587
Well, between Jack's back taxes
and the Fred Haise show. . .
678
00:49:42,479 --> 00:49:45,653
l'd say that was
a pretty successful broadcast.
679
00:49:45,816 --> 00:49:47,659
CAPCOM 1 : That was an excellent show.
680
00:49:47,751 --> 00:49:49,161
Thank you very much, Houston.
681
00:49:49,252 --> 00:49:51,459
CAPCOM 1 : We've got a couple
of housekeeping procedures.
682
00:49:51,555 --> 00:49:56,128
We'd like you to roll right
to 0-6-0 and null your rates.
683
00:49:56,493 --> 00:49:59,667
Roger that. Rolling right, 0-6-0.
684
00:50:04,634 --> 00:50:08,411
And then if you could give
your oxygen tanks a stir.
685
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:10,649
Roger that.
686
00:50:28,558 --> 00:50:29,832
[Alarm sounding]
687
00:50:32,362 --> 00:50:33,772
[Loud crashing]
688
00:50:43,940 --> 00:50:46,283
We've got a problem here.
689
00:50:47,277 --> 00:50:49,518
-What did you do?
-Nothing. l stirred the tanks.
690
00:50:55,152 --> 00:50:57,825
This is Houston. Say again, please.
691
00:50:57,988 --> 00:50:59,467
Houston, we have a problem.
692
00:51:01,291 --> 00:51:03,395
We have a main bus B undervolt.
693
00:51:03,527 --> 00:51:06,633
-We've got a lot of thruster activity.
-What's with the computer?
694
00:51:06,730 --> 00:51:09,972
JlM: lt just went off line.
There's another master alarm.
695
00:51:10,067 --> 00:51:12,479
JACK: l'm checking the quad.
FRED: That was no repress valve.
696
00:51:12,569 --> 00:51:15,481
Maybe it's in quad C .
l'll reconfigure the RCS.
697
00:51:15,739 --> 00:51:17,650
We've got a ping light.
698
00:51:17,741 --> 00:51:21,586
We've got multiple caution and warnings.
We've got to reset and restart.
699
00:51:21,645 --> 00:51:23,454
l'm going to SCS.
700
00:51:26,283 --> 00:51:29,093
Flight, their heart rates are skyrocketing.
701
00:51:29,152 --> 00:51:32,827
-EECOM, what's your data telling you?
-O2 tank two not reading at all.
702
00:51:32,923 --> 00:51:36,427
Tank one is at 725 psi and falling.
703
00:51:36,893 --> 00:51:39,270
Fuel cells one and three are. . . .
704
00:51:40,230 --> 00:51:42,676
What's going on?
Flight, let me get back to you.
705
00:51:42,766 --> 00:51:45,678
Flight, GNC . They're all over the place.
706
00:51:45,769 --> 00:51:48,943
-They keep going close to gimbal lock.
-l keep losing radio signal.
707
00:51:49,005 --> 00:51:50,984
Their antennae must be flipped around.
708
00:51:51,074 --> 00:51:54,578
-They'll have to do it manually, if at all.
-One at a time, people.
709
00:51:54,978 --> 00:51:58,584
ls this an instrumentation problem
or real power loss?
710
00:51:58,782 --> 00:52:01,592
lt's reading a quadruple failure.
That can't happen.
711
00:52:01,651 --> 00:52:03,630
lt's got to be instrumentation.
712
00:52:03,687 --> 00:52:06,258
Get the hatch plugged.
A meteor may have hit the LEM.
713
00:52:06,356 --> 00:52:09,336
FRED: The tunnel's really torquing
with all this movement.
714
00:52:09,826 --> 00:52:13,671
Houston, we had a pretty large bang
associated with a master alarm.
715
00:52:13,730 --> 00:52:15,573
Shit, it's main bus A.
716
00:52:15,665 --> 00:52:19,772
CAPCOM 1 : Main bus A undervolt?
FRED: Main bus A undervolt down to. . . .
717
00:52:20,604 --> 00:52:24,415
lt's reading 25-and-a-half.
Main bus B is reading zip now.
718
00:52:24,741 --> 00:52:26,845
We got a wicked shimmy up here.
719
00:52:26,910 --> 00:52:29,617
These guys are talking
about bangs and shimmies.
720
00:52:29,713 --> 00:52:31,590
Doesn't sound like instrumentation.
721
00:52:31,681 --> 00:52:34,184
CAPCOM 1 : You are breaking up.
JACK: Can't get this hatch to seal.
722
00:52:34,251 --> 00:52:38,756
Just stow it. lf we'd been hit by a meteor,
we'd be dead by now.
723
00:52:38,955 --> 00:52:40,957
l'm gonna try to get us out of this.
724
00:52:41,057 --> 00:52:43,594
Houston, did you say switch to omni bravo?
725
00:52:43,693 --> 00:52:46,696
CAPCOM 1 : Roger that, 1 3.
FRED: The signal strength went way down.
726
00:52:46,763 --> 00:52:50,301
lt's fighting me. What's the story?
We keep flirting with gimbal lock.
727
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,972
CAPCOM 1 : We need a confirmation.
What systems are down?
728
00:52:56,306 --> 00:52:58,479
SMRCS, Helium one. . . .
729
00:52:58,608 --> 00:53:00,849
A and C are barber pole.
730
00:53:01,144 --> 00:53:04,022
Houston, l'm switching over
Quad C to main A.
731
00:53:04,114 --> 00:53:05,183
CAPCOM 1 : Roger that, 1 3.
732
00:53:05,282 --> 00:53:08,388
Okay, Houston, fuel cell one, fuel cell three.
733
00:53:08,618 --> 00:53:12,998
We got a main bus B undervolt,
cryo pressure, suit compressor.
734
00:53:13,390 --> 00:53:17,565
What don't we have?
AC bus one, AC bus two.
735
00:53:17,861 --> 00:53:21,137
Command module computer. O2 flow high.
736
00:53:21,364 --> 00:53:23,741
lt may be a caution and warning failure.
737
00:53:23,833 --> 00:53:28,213
Houston, we are venting
something out into space.
738
00:53:29,973 --> 00:53:33,352
l can see it outside window one right now.
739
00:53:35,178 --> 00:53:39,319
lt's definitely a gas of some sort.
740
00:53:41,985 --> 00:53:44,124
lt's got to be the oxygen.
741
00:54:02,172 --> 00:54:04,174
Roger, Odyssey. We copy your venting.
742
00:54:04,241 --> 00:54:05,378
CONTROLLER: Give me an alignment.
743
00:54:05,442 --> 00:54:07,888
GENE: Let's think about things
we can connect.
744
00:54:08,011 --> 00:54:10,423
Let's start back at the beginning.
745
00:54:11,081 --> 00:54:12,560
[All talking franticly]
746
00:54:22,626 --> 00:54:25,265
GENE: Listen up. Quiet down, people.
747
00:54:29,899 --> 00:54:31,901
Let's stay cool, people.
748
00:54:31,968 --> 00:54:34,880
Procedures, l need
another computer up in the RTCC .
749
00:54:34,938 --> 00:54:37,441
l want everybody
to alert your support teams.
750
00:54:37,540 --> 00:54:40,282
Wake up anybody you need
and get them in here.
751
00:54:40,810 --> 00:54:42,721
Let's work the problem, people.
752
00:54:42,879 --> 00:54:45,086
Let's not make things worse by guessing.
753
00:54:45,148 --> 00:54:49,391
CAPCOM 1 : 13 , this is Houston. We're going
around the room. We'll get you answers.
754
00:54:49,653 --> 00:54:53,430
JACK: We keep venting, we're gonna keep
hitting the edge of that deadband.
755
00:54:53,657 --> 00:54:56,000
Take a look at the O2 on number one.
756
00:55:00,697 --> 00:55:02,699
200 pounds and falling.
757
00:55:03,700 --> 00:55:05,702
O2 tank two still zero.
758
00:55:05,802 --> 00:55:09,306
EECOM: Tank one: 21 8 psi and falling.
FRED: ls that what you're getting? Confirm.
759
00:55:09,372 --> 00:55:14,150
CAPCOM 1 : Wo're seeing the same, 1 3.
GENE: Can we review our status, Sy?
760
00:55:14,210 --> 00:55:18,385
Let's look at this thing
from a standpoint of status.
761
00:55:22,686 --> 00:55:25,860
What have we got
on the spacecraft that's good?
762
00:55:28,191 --> 00:55:30,364
l'll get back to you, Gene.
763
00:55:32,028 --> 00:55:34,371
We're not gonna have power much longer.
764
00:55:34,698 --> 00:55:37,007
The ship's bleeding to death.
765
00:55:44,874 --> 00:55:46,944
EECOM: Flight?
GENE: Yeah. Go, EECCM.
766
00:55:48,345 --> 00:55:51,849
Flight, l recommend we shut down
the reactant valves of the fuel cells.
767
00:55:53,116 --> 00:55:55,721
What the hell good is that gonna do?
768
00:55:55,952 --> 00:55:58,227
lf the leak's there, we can isolate it.
769
00:55:58,621 --> 00:56:02,034
We can save what's left in the tanks,
and run on the good cell.
770
00:56:02,125 --> 00:56:06,596
You close them, you can't open them again.
You can't land on the moon with one cell.
771
00:56:07,430 --> 00:56:09,603
Gene, the Odyssey is dying.
772
00:56:10,500 --> 00:56:13,344
From my chair here, this is the last option.
773
00:56:21,277 --> 00:56:23,381
Yeah. Okay, Sy.
774
00:56:38,995 --> 00:56:42,169
Capcom, let's have them
close the reactant valves.
775
00:56:42,265 --> 00:56:44,108
13, this is Houston.
776
00:56:44,467 --> 00:56:49,439
We want you to close react valves
on cells one and three. Do you copy?
777
00:56:51,508 --> 00:56:54,045
Are you saying you want the whole smash?
778
00:56:54,110 --> 00:56:57,750
Closing down the react valves
for fuel cells shutdown?
779
00:56:58,415 --> 00:57:01,919
Shutting down the fuel cells?
Did l hear you right?
780
00:57:02,485 --> 00:57:04,624
Yeah, they heard me right.
781
00:57:05,422 --> 00:57:08,926
Tell them we think that's the only way
they can stop the leak.
782
00:57:08,992 --> 00:57:10,300
Yeah, Jim. . .
783
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:13,773
we think that closing the react valves
may stop the leak.
784
00:57:24,007 --> 00:57:26,646
-Did he copy that?
-Do you copy, Jim?
785
00:57:28,845 --> 00:57:30,790
Yes, Houston, we copy.
786
00:57:36,519 --> 00:57:38,464
We just lost the moon.
787
00:57:48,198 --> 00:57:50,371
Okay, Freddo, shut those down.
788
00:57:52,335 --> 00:57:54,246
Let's see what this does.
789
00:58:02,745 --> 00:58:04,656
lf this doesn't work. . .
790
00:58:04,948 --> 00:58:07,951
we're not gonna have enough power left
to get home.
791
00:58:25,502 --> 00:58:28,107
-Shit!
-God damn it!
792
00:58:28,271 --> 00:58:31,445
FRED: Houston, O2 on one is still falling.
793
00:58:34,811 --> 00:58:37,120
How long does it take to power up the LEM?
794
00:58:37,180 --> 00:58:39,319
Three hours by the checklist.
795
00:58:40,016 --> 00:58:41,688
We don't have that much time.
796
00:58:42,185 --> 00:58:43,356
Shit!
797
00:58:45,355 --> 00:58:48,335
JlM: Jack, before the batteries
completely die on us in here. . .
798
00:58:48,424 --> 00:58:53,031
let's power down everything so we can save
as much as we can for re-entry.
799
00:58:54,297 --> 00:58:57,801
Fifteen minutes of oxygen, that's it.
The command module will be dead.
800
00:58:57,867 --> 00:59:00,677
Okay, guys, listen up. Here's the drill.
801
00:59:00,803 --> 00:59:02,782
We're moving the astronauts to the LEM.
802
00:59:02,839 --> 00:59:04,545
We've got to get oxygen up there.
803
00:59:04,641 --> 00:59:08,520
TELMU , Control, l want emergency
power procedure. Essential hardware only.
804
00:59:09,112 --> 00:59:12,889
GNC , EECOM, we'll be shutting down
the command module at the same time.
805
00:59:12,982 --> 00:59:15,860
We've to transfer the guidance system
to another computer.
806
00:59:15,952 --> 00:59:18,796
l want those numbers up and ready
when they're in position.
807
00:59:18,855 --> 00:59:23,167
EECOM: Transfer all data over the LEM
computer before the command module dies.
808
00:59:23,226 --> 00:59:25,467
The lunar module just became a lifeboat.
809
00:59:25,728 --> 00:59:29,698
Odyssey, this is Houston.
We need you to power down immediately.
810
00:59:30,033 --> 00:59:33,537
Power up the LEM at the same time,
so get somebody over there.
811
00:59:33,636 --> 00:59:36,048
We already have Freddo in the LEM.
812
00:59:36,139 --> 00:59:38,209
CAPCOM 1 : We've got serious time pressure.
813
00:59:38,308 --> 00:59:40,879
Get the guidance program transferred...
814
00:59:40,977 --> 00:59:43,548
before you're out of power
in the command module...
815
00:59:43,746 --> 00:59:46,192
or you're not gonna be able to navigate.
816
00:59:46,316 --> 00:59:48,261
How much time?
Can you give me a number?
817
00:59:48,351 --> 00:59:52,560
We're looking at less than
1 5 minutes of life support in the Odyssey.
818
00:59:55,992 --> 00:59:59,667
JlM: We've got 1 5 minutes, Freddo.
lt's worse than l thought.
819
01:00:01,497 --> 01:00:05,240
Houston, l've moved
from the command module into the LEM.
820
01:00:06,369 --> 01:00:09,907
lf Jack can't get that data transferred
before they go dead--
821
01:00:10,006 --> 01:00:12,281
They won't know which way they're pointed.
822
01:00:12,375 --> 01:00:15,082
-That's a bad way to fly.
-l'll be in 21 0 if you need me.
823
01:00:17,347 --> 01:00:20,453
JACK: Houston, this is 13 .
Are you back with me now?
824
01:00:22,118 --> 01:00:25,861
CAPCOM 1 : Aquarius, this is Houston.
You now have about 1 2 minutes to power up.
825
01:00:25,922 --> 01:00:30,302
l can't see any stars. Man, there's
a lot of debris floating around out there.
826
01:00:31,861 --> 01:00:34,568
Houston, l have completed
the steps on Page 1 5.
827
01:00:34,631 --> 01:00:36,610
l'm ready to power down the computer.
828
01:00:37,934 --> 01:00:42,280
l'm gonna need your gimbal angles, Jack,
before you shut down the computer!
829
01:00:42,739 --> 01:00:43,876
Okay, Jim.
830
01:00:43,940 --> 01:00:45,919
l need this back before they power down.
831
01:00:45,975 --> 01:00:48,421
All right, l got it. Hold on.
832
01:00:49,445 --> 01:00:52,619
FRED: Houston, our computer is up.
CAPCOM 1 : Roger. Stand by.
833
01:00:53,816 --> 01:00:57,764
Jack, we need to proceed
with steps 1 2 through 1 7 quickly.
834
01:00:58,321 --> 01:01:01,324
You're down to
about eight minutes remaining.
835
01:01:01,891 --> 01:01:04,997
JACK: Fuel cell pump's off.
O2 fans, tank two off.
836
01:01:05,194 --> 01:01:09,142
Okay, Houston, check me.
l have completed the gimbal conversions. . .
837
01:01:09,198 --> 01:01:12,543
but l need a double check of the arithmetic.
838
01:01:12,635 --> 01:01:17,140
-Yeah, you can go, Jim.
-The roll CAL angle is minus two.
839
01:01:17,306 --> 01:01:20,810
Lunar module roll is 355.57 .
840
01:01:21,010 --> 01:01:24,389
Pitch: 1 678, correction.
841
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:27,392
Pitch: 1 67 .78.
842
01:01:27,650 --> 01:01:30,062
Yaw is 351 .87 .
843
01:01:30,153 --> 01:01:31,688
Stand by. We're checking it.
844
01:01:31,754 --> 01:01:34,234
JIM: We've got negative visibility
in our star field...
845
01:01:34,323 --> 01:01:38,930
and if this paperwork isn't right,
who knows where we'll end up out here.
846
01:01:45,735 --> 01:01:47,407
Looks good, Flight.
847
01:01:47,503 --> 01:01:49,846
-lt's all right.
-Good here.
848
01:01:50,006 --> 01:01:52,247
-He's good, Andy.
-We'll go on those numbers.
849
01:01:52,341 --> 01:01:53,945
CAPCOM 1 : Yeu're good.
JlM: Log them in, Freddo.
850
01:01:54,043 --> 01:01:55,647
Turn off the lMU . Switch to SCS.
851
01:01:56,412 --> 01:01:58,858
Stand by. Over.
852
01:01:59,248 --> 01:02:02,524
lt's a great day in New York.
lt's girl watchers' weather.
853
01:02:02,685 --> 01:02:05,825
l like the ingenious girl watchers
who wear Con Edison helmets...
854
01:02:05,922 --> 01:02:09,597
and dig trenches in the street
to get a better view.
855
01:02:09,659 --> 01:02:11,866
But speaking of girl watching...
856
01:02:11,961 --> 01:02:15,499
did you know that our first bachelor
astronaut is on his way to the moon?
857
01:02:15,598 --> 01:02:18,101
ls it Swigert? Yeah, first bachelor.
858
01:02:18,167 --> 01:02:22,445
They say he's the kind who has a girl
in every port. He has that reputation.
859
01:02:22,538 --> 01:02:26,952
He's sort of foolishly optimistic, taking
nylons and Hershey bars to the moon.
860
01:02:27,009 --> 01:02:28,010
[Audience laughs on TV]
861
01:02:29,679 --> 01:02:31,488
Did you read that three million....
862
01:02:31,547 --> 01:02:34,220
What do you say?
Less viewers or fewer viewers?
863
01:02:34,317 --> 01:02:37,821
Three million fewer viewers...
864
01:02:37,954 --> 01:02:40,229
watched the space shot
than did the last one.
865
01:02:45,528 --> 01:02:48,838
ANCHORMAN: Here is ABC science editor
Jules Bergman.
866
01:02:49,565 --> 01:02:53,171
The Apollo 1 3 spacecraft
has lost all electrical power...
867
01:02:53,236 --> 01:02:55,978
astronauts Jim Lovell,
Fred Haise and Jack Swigert...
868
01:02:56,038 --> 01:02:58,575
are making their way to the lunar module...
869
01:02:58,674 --> 01:03:01,484
using it as a lifeboat
so they'll have electrical power...
870
01:03:01,577 --> 01:03:03,420
for their radios on the command module.
871
01:03:03,479 --> 01:03:06,425
Apollo 13 is apparently
also losing breathing oxygen....
872
01:03:06,482 --> 01:03:09,792
Slow down. An "electrical failure."
What exactly does that mean?
873
01:03:09,886 --> 01:03:12,798
BERGMAN: [On TV] The emergency has
ruled out any chance of a lunar landing...
874
01:03:12,889 --> 01:03:15,596
and could endanger the lives
of the astronauts...
875
01:03:15,658 --> 01:03:19,765
if the LEM oxygen supply, plus whatever
is left of the command module's oxygen...
876
01:03:19,929 --> 01:03:22,238
can't last them
until they can get back to Earth.
877
01:03:22,298 --> 01:03:24,072
What do you mean, "no immediate danger"?
878
01:03:24,133 --> 01:03:26,943
l heard they're losing oxygen.
Can they get back?
879
01:03:27,003 --> 01:03:30,643
BERGMAN: The LEM's descent rocket engine
will be used in aborting the mission...
880
01:03:30,740 --> 01:03:32,913
and getting them safely back to Earth.
881
01:03:33,276 --> 01:03:34,846
Recapping what has happened:
882
01:03:34,944 --> 01:03:37,947
The Apollo 1 3 astronauts
may be in grave danger.
883
01:03:38,014 --> 01:03:39,788
No, don't give me that NASA bullshit!
884
01:03:39,849 --> 01:03:42,295
l want to know
what's happening with my husband !
885
01:03:42,351 --> 01:03:44,421
CAPCOM 1 : We want to switch control
to the Aquarius now.
886
01:03:44,487 --> 01:03:46,193
-Roger that.
-Houston, wait!
887
01:03:46,289 --> 01:03:49,031
CAPCOM 1 : Yeu're down
to about five minutes now.
888
01:03:49,325 --> 01:03:54,297
JIM: Be aware our RCS isn't up here yet.
We have no attitude control on Aquarius.
889
01:03:55,298 --> 01:03:58,005
They don't have control?
Did we miss a step here?
890
01:03:58,167 --> 01:04:02,274
-Control, what the hell happened?
-l don't know. We need more time.
891
01:04:05,942 --> 01:04:07,148
JlM: Wo're out of whack.
892
01:04:07,243 --> 01:04:09,780
l'm trying to pitch down
but we're yawing to the left.
893
01:04:09,879 --> 01:04:11,722
Why can't l null this out?
894
01:04:11,781 --> 01:04:14,784
FRED: She wasn't designed
to fly attached like this.
895
01:04:15,751 --> 01:04:18,925
lt's like flying with a dead elephant
on our back.
896
01:04:18,988 --> 01:04:21,593
Flight, Guidance.
We're getting close to center here.
897
01:04:21,657 --> 01:04:25,002
Watch that middle gimbal.
We don't want you tumbling off into space.
898
01:04:25,094 --> 01:04:27,801
lnform them l'm well aware
of the goddamn gimbals!
899
01:04:28,631 --> 01:04:31,236
FRED: Roger that.
JIM: l don't need to hear the obvious.
900
01:04:31,300 --> 01:04:32,904
l can see the frapping eight-ball!
901
01:04:32,969 --> 01:04:34,277
DlRECTOR: Andy, we're on VOX.
902
01:04:34,337 --> 01:04:37,283
CAPCOM 1 : Aquarius, this is Houston.
We've got you both on VOX.
903
01:04:37,607 --> 01:04:39,677
FRED: You want us to go to VOX?
904
01:04:39,942 --> 01:04:43,013
CAPCOM 1 : You have a hot mike.
We are reading everything you say.
905
01:04:43,179 --> 01:04:44,623
Sorry, Jim.
906
01:04:46,682 --> 01:04:48,786
lt's only by a very narrow margin...
907
01:04:48,851 --> 01:04:52,821
that we're going to get
Lovell, Haise and Swigert back alive.
908
01:04:56,125 --> 01:04:58,605
l'm sorry. Jeffrey's calling for you.
909
01:04:58,661 --> 01:05:02,700
BERGMAN: ...the terseness of Kraft
and the grim lines of Jim McDivitt.
910
01:05:03,099 --> 01:05:07,240
This has been a very close call.
We're not out of the woods yet.
911
01:05:14,911 --> 01:05:17,186
Why are so many people here?
912
01:05:20,583 --> 01:05:22,892
Your dad's flying his mission.
913
01:05:25,621 --> 01:05:28,465
He said he was going
to get me a moon rock.
914
01:05:28,557 --> 01:05:29,763
Right.
915
01:05:35,998 --> 01:05:38,944
Something broke on
your daddy's spaceship. . .
916
01:05:40,336 --> 01:05:44,215
and he's gonna have to turn around
before he even gets to the moon.
917
01:05:48,844 --> 01:05:50,516
Was it the door?
918
01:05:51,781 --> 01:05:55,023
CAPCOM 1 : 13 , we still show that venting
pushing you around.
919
01:05:55,117 --> 01:05:57,654
CAPCOM 1 : How you doing?
JIM: Houston, Aquarius.
920
01:05:58,187 --> 01:06:02,999
We've had to learn how to fly all over again,
but we are doing better now.
921
01:06:03,225 --> 01:06:07,002
-Roger that, Aquarius.
-Have him close it out.
922
01:06:07,563 --> 01:06:10,509
CAPCOM 1 : Jack, we can close out
your procedure now.
923
01:06:12,568 --> 01:06:16,015
Do we know for sure
that we can power this thing back up?
924
01:06:16,605 --> 01:06:19,210
lt's gonna get awfully cold in here.
925
01:06:19,508 --> 01:06:23,251
CAPCOM 1 : Copy that, Jack.
We'll just have to deal with that later.
926
01:06:26,716 --> 01:06:28,786
-Computer off.
-We're clear.
927
01:06:29,251 --> 01:06:31,253
We're going to the LEM.
928
01:06:32,054 --> 01:06:34,056
We confirm shutdown, Jack.
929
01:06:34,123 --> 01:06:36,125
Lunar module now in control.
930
01:06:41,230 --> 01:06:45,269
JACK: Roger that, Houston.
This is Odyssey signing off.
931
01:07:01,650 --> 01:07:04,323
JlM: Freddo, we're gonna have to execute
some sort of burn.
932
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:06,465
lt's just a matter of when.
933
01:07:10,693 --> 01:07:13,673
JlM: Did they shut us all down in there?
JACK: Yeah.
934
01:07:15,131 --> 01:07:18,043
FRED: Didn't think we'd be back in here
so soon.
935
01:07:19,969 --> 01:07:23,314
Houston, how far off course
do you project we are? Over.
936
01:07:27,043 --> 01:07:28,852
Okay, people, listen up!
937
01:07:28,911 --> 01:07:32,221
Gentlemen, l want you all
to forget the flight plan.
938
01:07:33,149 --> 01:07:36,721
From this moment on,
we are improvising a new mission.
939
01:07:39,321 --> 01:07:42,597
ENGlNEER: Sorry about that.
We'll get somebody to look at that.
940
01:07:42,892 --> 01:07:45,235
How do we get our people home?
941
01:07:47,863 --> 01:07:49,000
They are here.
942
01:07:49,098 --> 01:07:51,942
-Do we turn them around, direct abort?
-Yes!
943
01:07:52,868 --> 01:07:54,369
[lndistinct talking]
944
01:07:55,704 --> 01:07:58,741
No, sir!
We get them on a free-return trajectory.
945
01:07:58,841 --> 01:08:01,651
lt's the option
with the fewest question marks for safety.
946
01:08:01,744 --> 01:08:04,850
l agree. We use the moon's gravity
to slingshot them around.
947
01:08:04,947 --> 01:08:08,622
No, the LEM will not support three guys
for that amount of time.
948
01:08:08,684 --> 01:08:13,326
l think we've got to do a direct abort. We do
an about-face, bring the guys right home.
949
01:08:13,422 --> 01:08:15,026
Get them back soon. Absolutely.
950
01:08:15,124 --> 01:08:17,604
FlDO: We don't even know
if the Odyssey's engine's working.
951
01:08:17,660 --> 01:08:21,300
-lf there's been serious damage to the craft--
-They blow up and they die!
952
01:08:21,363 --> 01:08:23,809
That is not the argument!
We're talking about time!
953
01:08:23,866 --> 01:08:27,006
-Not whether these guys--
-l'm not gonna sugarcoat this for you !
954
01:08:27,103 --> 01:08:29,549
Okay, hold it. Let's hold it down.
955
01:08:29,638 --> 01:08:33,051
The only engine we've got
with enough power for a direct abort. . .
956
01:08:33,142 --> 01:08:35,212
is the SPS on the service module.
957
01:08:35,311 --> 01:08:37,882
lt could have been damaged
in an explosion. . .
958
01:08:37,980 --> 01:08:39,618
so let's consider that engine dead.
959
01:08:39,682 --> 01:08:41,786
We light it up, could blow the whole works.
960
01:08:41,851 --> 01:08:44,388
Just too risky.
We're not gonna take that chance.
961
01:08:44,487 --> 01:08:47,194
The only thing
the command module's good for is re-entry.
962
01:08:47,289 --> 01:08:50,998
That leaves us with the LEM,
which means free-return trajectory.
963
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:53,505
Once we get the guys around the moon. . .
964
01:08:53,562 --> 01:08:55,871
we'll fire up the LEM engine,
make a long burn. . .
965
01:08:55,965 --> 01:08:58,707
pick up some speed,
and get them home as quick as we can.
966
01:08:58,801 --> 01:09:02,544
Gene, l'm wondering
what the Grumman guys think about this.
967
01:09:02,605 --> 01:09:06,917
We can't make any guarantees.
We designed the LEM to land on the moon. . .
968
01:09:06,976 --> 01:09:09,456
not fire the engine for course corrections.
969
01:09:09,545 --> 01:09:13,424
Well, unfortunately, we're not
landing on the moon, are we?
970
01:09:14,984 --> 01:09:18,727
l don't care what anything was designed
to do. l care about what it can do.
971
01:09:19,255 --> 01:09:22,167
So let's get to work. Let's lay it out, okay?
972
01:09:23,125 --> 01:09:26,401
Capcom, Flight,
he says it will be ready in time.
973
01:09:26,595 --> 01:09:30,599
After this burn, we've got to build time
in the flight plan for them to get sleep.
974
01:09:30,666 --> 01:09:33,476
-Run it by the FAO .
-l've run it by the FAO .
975
01:09:33,569 --> 01:09:35,742
ENGlNEER: Do we know how long
we're gonna fire that burn?
976
01:09:35,804 --> 01:09:39,410
-He wanted a quote from a flight director.
-Who wanted a quote?
977
01:09:39,475 --> 01:09:41,181
-The President.
-The President?
978
01:09:41,277 --> 01:09:43,154
Nixon. He wants our odds.
979
01:09:44,647 --> 01:09:46,490
We are not losing the crew.
980
01:09:46,782 --> 01:09:50,252
NASA DlRECTOR: Gene, l gotta give him
odds. Five to one against? Three to one?
981
01:09:50,319 --> 01:09:53,698
-l don't think they're that good.
-We are not losing those men.
982
01:09:58,861 --> 01:10:01,034
CAPCOM 2: How long are they gonna have
to burn the engine PC + 2?
983
01:10:02,498 --> 01:10:04,773
Look, tell him three to one.
984
01:10:07,703 --> 01:10:10,615
CAPCOM 2: Expect loss of signal
in less than one minute.
985
01:10:10,673 --> 01:10:13,847
When we pick you back up
we will have your PC + 2 burn data.
986
01:10:13,909 --> 01:10:18,516
FRED: Okay. Roger that, Houston. We'll hear
from you again at acquisition of signal.
987
01:10:21,350 --> 01:10:22,920
You wanna look?
988
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:26,660
FRED: Oh, look at that.
989
01:10:35,030 --> 01:10:38,340
CAPCOM 2: Aquarius, that's 30 seconds
until loss of signal.
990
01:10:42,238 --> 01:10:44,581
FRED: Mare Tranquillitatis.
991
01:10:46,675 --> 01:10:49,087
Neil and Buzz's old neighborhood.
992
01:10:49,945 --> 01:10:52,118
Coming up on Mount Marilyn.
993
01:10:52,281 --> 01:10:54,852
Jim, you gotta take a look at this.
994
01:10:56,452 --> 01:10:57,953
l've seen it.
995
01:11:04,193 --> 01:11:05,967
CAPCOM 2: Aquarius, this is Houston.
996
01:11:06,028 --> 01:11:09,634
JACK: We expect loss of signal
in approximately ten seconds.
997
01:11:10,833 --> 01:11:13,813
So long, Earth. Catch you on the flip side.
998
01:11:20,843 --> 01:11:23,323
JACK: [On TV] When you go
into the shadow of the moon...
999
01:11:23,379 --> 01:11:25,825
and the moon is between you and the sun...
1000
01:11:26,315 --> 01:11:29,955
you see stars that are more brilliant
than anything you've ever seen...
1001
01:11:30,019 --> 01:11:32,089
on the clearest nights here on Earth.
1002
01:11:32,154 --> 01:11:37,103
And then you pass into the lunar sunrise
over the lunar surtace.
1003
01:11:38,327 --> 01:11:42,502
lt must be an awe-inspiring sight.
l can't wait to see it myself.
1004
01:11:42,931 --> 01:11:47,470
The problem now is not so much a question
of adequate oxygen supply...
1005
01:11:47,536 --> 01:11:49,675
but it is the rate of consumption of water...
1006
01:11:49,805 --> 01:11:52,876
which is vitally needed
for the cooling operations...
1007
01:11:52,975 --> 01:11:55,045
to maintain the electronic systems....
1008
01:12:33,716 --> 01:12:35,593
FRED: Look, it's Fra Mauro.
1009
01:12:37,753 --> 01:12:39,926
l can see our landing site.
1010
01:12:43,625 --> 01:12:46,071
JACK: Look at the Tsiolkovsky Crater.
1011
01:12:48,597 --> 01:12:51,509
l can't believe how bright
the ejecta blanket is.
1012
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:54,478
FRED: lt's like snow. lt's beautiful.
1013
01:12:56,638 --> 01:12:59,084
That's Mare lmbrium to the north.
1014
01:14:02,271 --> 01:14:04,148
CAPCOM 2: 13 , this is Houston.
1015
01:14:04,206 --> 01:14:07,983
We're reading your telemetry.
lt's good to see you again.
1016
01:14:08,477 --> 01:14:10,547
Good to see you, too, Houston.
1017
01:14:10,813 --> 01:14:14,783
CAPCOM 2: We are picking you up
at a velocity of 7 ,062 feet per second...
1018
01:14:14,850 --> 01:14:18,525
at a distance from the moon
of 56 nautical miles.
1019
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:21,666
Stand by for your PC + 2 burn data.
1020
01:14:22,691 --> 01:14:26,900
FRED: Got to tell you, l had an itch to take
this baby down, do some prospecting.
1021
01:14:28,330 --> 01:14:30,173
Damn, we were close.
1022
01:14:32,868 --> 01:14:35,507
Gentlemen, what are your intentions?
1023
01:14:39,675 --> 01:14:41,518
l'd like to go home.
1024
01:14:44,179 --> 01:14:46,215
We got a burn coming up.
1025
01:14:46,482 --> 01:14:49,588
We're gonna need a contingency
if we lose comm with Houston.
1026
01:14:50,085 --> 01:14:53,555
Let's get an idea where we stand
on the consumables.
1027
01:14:54,256 --> 01:14:56,531
Jack, get into the Odyssey. . .
1028
01:14:56,592 --> 01:15:00,062
and bag up all the water you can
before it freezes in there.
1029
01:15:02,798 --> 01:15:03,833
Let's go home.
1030
01:15:03,899 --> 01:15:07,437
CAPCOM 2: Aquarius, we got some
PC + 2 burn data for you fellas.
1031
01:15:07,503 --> 01:15:12,509
So you're telling me
you can only give our guys 45 hours?
1032
01:15:13,308 --> 01:15:15,720
That brings them to about there.
1033
01:15:20,415 --> 01:15:21,894
Gentlemen, that's not acceptable.
1034
01:15:21,950 --> 01:15:24,828
ARTHUR: Gene, we've got to talk
about power.
1035
01:15:25,220 --> 01:15:27,597
Guys! Power is everything !
1036
01:15:28,557 --> 01:15:30,832
ARTHUR: Power is everything.
GENE: What do you mean?
1037
01:15:30,926 --> 01:15:34,066
Without it, they don't talk to us,
correct their trajectory. . .
1038
01:15:34,129 --> 01:15:36,165
they don't turn the heat shield around.
1039
01:15:36,265 --> 01:15:40,838
We gotta turn everything off. Now.
They're not gonna make it to re-entry.
1040
01:15:40,936 --> 01:15:44,645
-What do you mean, "everything"?
-lf everything's on, the LEM draws 60 amps.
1041
01:15:44,740 --> 01:15:48,483
At that rate, in 1 6 hours
the batteries are dead, not 45.
1042
01:15:48,944 --> 01:15:51,686
And so is the crew.
We gotta get them down to 1 2 amps.
1043
01:15:51,780 --> 01:15:53,315
ENGlNEER 1 : Twelve amps?
ENGlNEER 2: How many?
1044
01:15:53,415 --> 01:15:55,690
You can't run a vacuum cleaner
on 1 2 amps, John.
1045
01:15:55,784 --> 01:15:59,322
We gotta turn off the radars, cabin heater. . .
1046
01:15:59,421 --> 01:16:01,867
instrument displays,
guidance computer, everything.
1047
01:16:01,924 --> 01:16:04,563
Guidance computer?
What if they need to do another burn?
1048
01:16:04,660 --> 01:16:06,571
They won't know which way they're pointed.
1049
01:16:06,662 --> 01:16:08,869
The more time we talk,
the more juice they waste.
1050
01:16:08,931 --> 01:16:10,671
l've looked at data for the past hour.
1051
01:16:10,732 --> 01:16:13,269
-That's the deal?
-That's the deal.
1052
01:16:17,873 --> 01:16:22,549
Okay, John. The minute we finish the burn,
we'll power down the LEM.
1053
01:16:22,611 --> 01:16:24,021
All right.
1054
01:16:24,713 --> 01:16:29,059
Now, in the meantime, we're gonna have
a frozen command module up there.
1055
01:16:29,217 --> 01:16:32,755
Soon, we'll have to power it up
using nothing but the re-entry batteries.
1056
01:16:32,854 --> 01:16:36,563
-That's never been tried before.
-We've never even simulated it before.
1057
01:16:36,625 --> 01:16:38,866
Well, we're gonna have to figure it out.
1058
01:16:39,227 --> 01:16:42,401
l want people in our simulators
working re-entry scenarios.
1059
01:16:42,464 --> 01:16:45,934
l want you to find every engineer
who designed every switch, circuit. . .
1060
01:16:46,034 --> 01:16:47,535
transistor and light bulb up there.
1061
01:16:47,603 --> 01:16:51,312
Then, talk to the guy in the assembly line
who actually built the thing.
1062
01:16:51,406 --> 01:16:55,115
Find out how to squeeze every amp
out of both of these goddamn machines.
1063
01:16:55,777 --> 01:17:00,487
l want this mark all the way back to Earth
with time to spare.
1064
01:17:01,483 --> 01:17:03,018
We never lost an American in space.
1065
01:17:03,352 --> 01:17:05,661
We're sure as hell not gonna lose one
on my watch.
1066
01:17:05,721 --> 01:17:07,495
Failure is not an option.
1067
01:17:16,965 --> 01:17:19,308
-What?
-Good, you're not dead.
1068
01:17:19,568 --> 01:17:22,241
l've been trying to get in touch with you
for 45 minutes.
1069
01:17:22,337 --> 01:17:23,838
Jesus, what're you doing here?
1070
01:17:23,905 --> 01:17:26,544
l gotta get you in the simulator.
We got a ship to land.
1071
01:17:26,642 --> 01:17:28,849
-What?
-There's been an explosion.
1072
01:17:29,011 --> 01:17:32,549
Oxygen tanks are gone, two fuel cells gone,
command module's shut down.
1073
01:17:33,048 --> 01:17:35,255
-What about the crew?
-Crew's fine so far.
1074
01:17:35,350 --> 01:17:37,489
Trying to keep them alive in the LEM.
1075
01:17:37,552 --> 01:17:40,498
We'll have to shut that down
pretty soon, too.
1076
01:17:40,756 --> 01:17:43,600
We got a lot of people working
the numbers on this one.
1077
01:17:43,692 --> 01:17:46,502
Nobody's too sure
how much power we'll have for re-entry.
1078
01:17:46,561 --> 01:17:49,507
The command module
will be frozen up pretty good by then.
1079
01:17:50,599 --> 01:17:54,103
lf you see this ammeter rise over 20
at any point, power-up is no good.
1080
01:17:54,202 --> 01:17:56,875
lf it spikes, that's sayonara
for the guidance computer.
1081
01:17:56,938 --> 01:17:58,417
Our guys can't re-enter, okay?
1082
01:17:58,507 --> 01:18:00,418
FRANK: How much power
do we have to play with?
1083
01:18:00,509 --> 01:18:02,955
Barely enough to run this
coffee pot for nine hours.
1084
01:18:03,011 --> 01:18:05,514
ARTHUR: Go.
SIM TECH: Ken Mattingly just got here.
1085
01:18:05,614 --> 01:18:07,286
Copy. He's here.
1086
01:18:07,949 --> 01:18:09,985
YOUNG: They've been losing heat
since the accident.
1087
01:18:10,085 --> 01:18:13,156
They'll start getting water condensation
on the control panels.
1088
01:18:13,255 --> 01:18:15,166
Glad you're here.
You know what's going on?
1089
01:18:15,257 --> 01:18:16,758
John's brought me up to speed.
1090
01:18:16,825 --> 01:18:18,998
-What's left in the batteries?
-We don't know.
1091
01:18:19,094 --> 01:18:21,506
We gotta get started
on some shortcuts for power-up.
1092
01:18:21,596 --> 01:18:22,972
You know how short?
1093
01:18:23,031 --> 01:18:26,944
lt's all in the sequencing. lf we can skip
whatever we don't absolutely need. . .
1094
01:18:27,002 --> 01:18:29,607
-turn things on in the right order, maybe--
-l agree.
1095
01:18:29,671 --> 01:18:33,209
-You started on a procedure?
-Engineers have tried, but it's your ship.
1096
01:18:33,308 --> 01:18:35,811
-We gotta get you in there.
-Okay.
1097
01:18:35,977 --> 01:18:38,548
Frank, l need the sim cold and dark.
1098
01:18:38,647 --> 01:18:41,320
Give me the exact conditions
they've got in there now.
1099
01:18:41,383 --> 01:18:44,022
-l need status of every instrument.
-You got it.
1100
01:18:44,119 --> 01:18:47,122
l need a flashlight.
That's not what they have up there.
1101
01:18:47,189 --> 01:18:49,430
KEN: Don't give me anything
they don't have on board.
1102
01:18:49,491 --> 01:18:52,836
YOUNG: Let's get this show on the road.
Put him in space, fellas.
1103
01:18:54,162 --> 01:18:57,973
Okay, Houston, the quad-heater
circuit breakers are open.
1104
01:18:58,033 --> 01:18:59,068
CAPCOM 2: Copy that.
1105
01:18:59,167 --> 01:19:02,113
We'll use the forward omni
when the Earth's in the window. . .
1106
01:19:02,204 --> 01:19:04,809
and we're switching to aft omni
when we see the moon.
1107
01:19:04,906 --> 01:19:06,544
CAPCOM 2: Wo copy that, 1 3.
1108
01:19:06,608 --> 01:19:09,452
Aquarius, we don't want you
to make any more waste dumps.
1109
01:19:09,544 --> 01:19:12,115
The venting may push you off course.
1110
01:19:12,581 --> 01:19:14,788
FRED: Oh, Christ.
JACK: What's up?
1111
01:19:15,383 --> 01:19:19,262
No more waste dumps.
We're just gonna have to store it.
1112
01:19:19,721 --> 01:19:21,996
Jack, we're gonna need
some more urine bags.
1113
01:19:22,891 --> 01:19:26,395
JlM: Okay, Houston,
that leaves us with just the computer. . .
1114
01:19:26,928 --> 01:19:29,169
which l'm shutting down now.
1115
01:19:36,138 --> 01:19:37,139
And that's it.
1116
01:19:38,273 --> 01:19:41,481
We just put Sir lsaac Newton
in the driver's seat.
1117
01:19:46,782 --> 01:19:48,591
ls it a.m. or p.m.?
1118
01:19:49,017 --> 01:19:52,191
A.m. Very, very a.m.
1119
01:19:52,287 --> 01:19:54,824
Haise is running a temperature,
and no one has slept.
1120
01:19:54,923 --> 01:19:58,871
l can't order these guys to go to sleep.
Could you sleep up there?
1121
01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:01,872
FAO: lt's gonna get awful cold
in there for those guys.
1122
01:20:02,798 --> 01:20:06,541
Gene, we have a situation
brewing with the carbon dioxide.
1123
01:20:06,635 --> 01:20:09,012
We got a CO2 filter problem
on the lunar module.
1124
01:20:09,104 --> 01:20:12,642
-Five filters on the LEM.
-Meant for two guys for a day and a half.
1125
01:20:12,707 --> 01:20:15,119
-l told the doc--
-We're up to eight on the gauges.
1126
01:20:15,177 --> 01:20:18,522
Anything over 1 5
and you get impaired judgment, blackouts. . .
1127
01:20:18,613 --> 01:20:20,057
the beginnings of brain asphyxia.
1128
01:20:20,148 --> 01:20:22,059
What about scrubbers
in the command module?
1129
01:20:22,150 --> 01:20:25,654
-They take square cartridges.
-The ones on the LEM are round.
1130
01:20:26,988 --> 01:20:29,058
Tell me this isn't a government operation.
1131
01:20:29,124 --> 01:20:31,968
This just isn't a contingency
we've remotely looked at.
1132
01:20:32,027 --> 01:20:34,234
DR. CHUCK: Those CO2 levels
will be getting toxic.
1133
01:20:34,329 --> 01:20:39,244
l suggest you gentlemen invent a way to put
a square peg in a round hole. Rapidly.
1134
01:20:42,804 --> 01:20:44,715
TED: Okay, people, listen up!
1135
01:20:44,806 --> 01:20:49,584
The people upstairs have handed us
this one, and we gotta come through.
1136
01:20:49,911 --> 01:20:53,620
We gotta find a way to make this. . .
1137
01:20:54,316 --> 01:20:56,591
fit into the hole for this. . .
1138
01:20:56,852 --> 01:20:58,854
using nothing but that.
1139
01:21:00,989 --> 01:21:03,765
TED: Let's get it organized.
TECH 1 : Okay, let's build a filter.
1140
01:21:03,825 --> 01:21:06,328
TED: Better get some coffee going, too.
1141
01:21:07,095 --> 01:21:09,666
REYNOLDS: [On TV] The Halse family
lives in El Lago, Texas.
1142
01:21:09,731 --> 01:21:12,438
His wife, Mary, is from Biloxi, Mississippi.
1143
01:21:12,534 --> 01:21:16,777
When Fred Haise was growing up in Biloxi,
he may have looked ahead to a fine family...
1144
01:21:16,872 --> 01:21:18,282
but he never dreamt of flying.
1145
01:21:18,373 --> 01:21:20,944
l'd never flown
before l went into the service...
1146
01:21:21,042 --> 01:21:24,921
and l only went into the flying business
as a means to getting a commission....
1147
01:21:25,013 --> 01:21:28,460
HENRY: Good morning.
MARlLYN: Henry. Don't you ever sleep?
1148
01:21:28,917 --> 01:21:31,659
l have a request from the news people.
1149
01:21:32,420 --> 01:21:35,958
They're out front here and they want
to put a transmitter up on the lawn.
1150
01:21:37,759 --> 01:21:39,238
Transmitter?
1151
01:21:39,394 --> 01:21:41,999
lt's kind of a tower for a live broadcast.
1152
01:21:47,269 --> 01:21:51,683
l thought they didn't care about the mission.
They didn't even run Jim's show.
1153
01:21:52,807 --> 01:21:55,651
Well, it's more dramatic now.
Suddenly people are--
1154
01:21:55,744 --> 01:21:59,783
lf landing on the moon wasn't dramatic
enough, why should not landing on it be?
1155
01:22:00,482 --> 01:22:04,225
Look, l realize how hard this is, Marilyn. . .
1156
01:22:04,319 --> 01:22:06,230
but the whole world is caught up in it.
1157
01:22:06,321 --> 01:22:09,028
-lt's the biggest story since--
-No, Henry.
1158
01:22:09,491 --> 01:22:13,837
Those people don't put one piece
of equipment on my lawn.
1159
01:22:14,195 --> 01:22:17,699
lf they have a problem with that,
they can take it up with my husband.
1160
01:22:17,766 --> 01:22:19,939
He'll be home on Friday.
1161
01:22:22,971 --> 01:22:24,745
[Melancholy country song playing]
1162
01:23:04,179 --> 01:23:05,658
Hey, Fred.
1163
01:23:06,448 --> 01:23:08,450
lt's too cold in there.
1164
01:23:23,398 --> 01:23:25,537
That's a nice one of Mary.
1165
01:23:29,204 --> 01:23:32,446
-You don't look too good, Freddo.
-l'll survive.
1166
01:23:32,507 --> 01:23:34,850
-There's aspirin in the medical kit.
-l took some.
1167
01:23:34,909 --> 01:23:36,718
Jim, l'm all right.
1168
01:23:42,017 --> 01:23:45,657
lt was an accident, Mary getting pregnant.
1169
01:23:47,188 --> 01:23:50,999
You should have seen the look on my face
when she told me.
1170
01:23:51,893 --> 01:23:54,566
Well, that has a tendency to happen.
1171
01:24:02,270 --> 01:24:04,409
l wonder if it's a boy or a girl.
1172
01:24:06,341 --> 01:24:08,320
You're gonna find out soon enough.
1173
01:24:09,277 --> 01:24:10,448
Sure.
1174
01:24:14,215 --> 01:24:17,457
l never dreamed l'd ever get
to do something like this.
1175
01:24:18,053 --> 01:24:20,294
Come up here on a real mission.
1176
01:24:21,489 --> 01:24:23,901
Most of the guys l graduated
high school with. . .
1177
01:24:23,992 --> 01:24:26,335
never even left home, and here l am.
1178
01:24:26,694 --> 01:24:27,968
Oh, yeah.
1179
01:24:29,164 --> 01:24:30,540
Here you are.
1180
01:24:36,004 --> 01:24:37,983
lt hurts when l urinate.
1181
01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:43,511
-Well, you're not getting enough water.
-l'm drinking my ration the same as you.
1182
01:24:46,848 --> 01:24:49,487
l think old Swigert gave me the clap.
1183
01:24:50,485 --> 01:24:53,329
He's been pissing in my relief tube.
1184
01:24:56,091 --> 01:25:00,095
Well, that will be a hot one
at the debriefing for the flight surgeon.
1185
01:25:00,195 --> 01:25:04,234
That's another first
for America's space program.
1186
01:25:06,568 --> 01:25:11,346
Listen, l've been going over some stuff. . .
1187
01:25:12,273 --> 01:25:16,983
and l'm a little worried about this cold
affecting our battery efficiency.
1188
01:25:17,512 --> 01:25:21,790
We quit heating the glycol to save
water and power, so that's not helping.
1189
01:25:21,850 --> 01:25:23,852
JlM: lt could cost us amp hours
on the back end?
1190
01:25:23,952 --> 01:25:25,158
FRED: That's a possibility.
1191
01:25:25,220 --> 01:25:27,324
JACK: l've been going over
the numbers again.
1192
01:25:27,422 --> 01:25:29,925
Have they called up with a re-entry plan yet?
1193
01:25:29,991 --> 01:25:32,494
-We're coming in too shallow--
-We're working on it.
1194
01:25:32,594 --> 01:25:36,269
l can't remember the ratio to temperature.
We got no references on board.
1195
01:25:36,331 --> 01:25:38,640
Let's see if Houston
can pull up the mil specs--
1196
01:25:38,700 --> 01:25:42,511
Listen, they gave us too much Delta V.
They had us burn too long.
1197
01:25:42,604 --> 01:25:46,142
At this rate we'll skip right out
of the atmosphere, and never get back.
1198
01:25:46,841 --> 01:25:49,787
What are you talking about?
How'd you figure that?
1199
01:25:49,944 --> 01:25:51,320
l can add.
1200
01:25:53,148 --> 01:25:56,788
-Many PhDs are working on this.
-Houston says we're on the money.
1201
01:25:56,851 --> 01:25:59,854
What if they made a mistake
and there was no way to reverse it?
1202
01:25:59,954 --> 01:26:01,228
You think they'd tell us?
1203
01:26:01,289 --> 01:26:04,599
JACK: There's no reason to tell us!
FRED: What do you mean? That's bullshit!
1204
01:26:04,692 --> 01:26:07,138
There's 1 ,000 things
that have to happen in order.
1205
01:26:07,228 --> 01:26:12,109
We are on number eight.
You're talking about number 692.
1206
01:26:12,200 --> 01:26:15,442
ln the meantime, l'm trying to tell you
we're coming in too fast.
1207
01:26:15,537 --> 01:26:18,882
l think they know it, and that's why
we don't have a re-entry plan.
1208
01:26:18,940 --> 01:26:21,147
That's duly noted. Thank you, Jack.
1209
01:26:22,544 --> 01:26:24,455
God damn this piece of shit!
1210
01:26:25,413 --> 01:26:27,552
This piece of shit's gonna get you home.
1211
01:26:27,615 --> 01:26:31,255
That's because that's the only thing
we've got left, Jack!
1212
01:26:32,253 --> 01:26:35,996
-What are you saying, Fred?
-l think you know what l'm saying.
1213
01:26:36,090 --> 01:26:39,161
Now wait a minute.
All l did was stir those tanks.
1214
01:26:39,260 --> 01:26:41,740
What was the gauge reading
before you hit the switch?
1215
01:26:41,796 --> 01:26:45,266
Don't tell me how to fly the CM!
They brought me in to do a job!
1216
01:26:45,333 --> 01:26:48,575
They asked me to stir the damn tanks,
and l stirred the tanks!
1217
01:26:48,636 --> 01:26:51,412
-Stop kicking yourself in the ass.
-This is not my fault!
1218
01:26:51,472 --> 01:26:53,417
No one is saying it is.
1219
01:26:53,741 --> 01:26:57,450
lf l'm in the left-hand seat
when the call comes up, l stir the tanks.
1220
01:26:57,512 --> 01:26:58,581
Well, tell him that.
1221
01:26:58,646 --> 01:27:01,888
l just asked you what the gauge
was reading, and you don't know!
1222
01:27:01,983 --> 01:27:03,826
Look, we're not doing this, gentlemen.
1223
01:27:03,885 --> 01:27:06,661
We're not bouncing off the walls
for ten minutes. . .
1224
01:27:06,721 --> 01:27:09,667
because we'll just end up
with the same problems!
1225
01:27:09,757 --> 01:27:12,362
Try to figure out how to stay alive!
1226
01:27:14,095 --> 01:27:15,403
CAPCOM 2: Aquarius, this is Houston.
1227
01:27:15,463 --> 01:27:18,205
-Are we on VOX?
-No, we're not on VOX.
1228
01:27:18,366 --> 01:27:20,869
Yeah, Houston, this is Aquarius. Go ahead.
1229
01:27:22,003 --> 01:27:25,507
CAPCOM 2: Yeah, Jim, could you check
your CO2 gauge for us?
1230
01:27:28,643 --> 01:27:30,713
JlM: We were just looking at that.
1231
01:27:30,778 --> 01:27:34,748
Our CO2 measurement
has jumped four notches in the last hour.
1232
01:27:34,916 --> 01:27:37,953
That can't be right.
l went over those numbers three times.
1233
01:27:38,052 --> 01:27:41,556
CAPCOM 2: Jim, that sounds about right.
We were expecting that.
1234
01:27:41,789 --> 01:27:45,236
That's very comforting to know, Houston.
What do we do about it?
1235
01:27:45,293 --> 01:27:48,433
CAPCOM 2: Jim, we're working
on a procedure down here for you.

All right, we're standing by
for those procedures.

Christ, l know why my numbers are wrong.
1239
01:27:58,072 --> 01:28:00,484
l only figured it for two people.
1240
01:28:04,345 --> 01:28:06,882

Do you have a flight plan up there?
1252
01:28:39,547 --> 01:28:42,687
Affirmative, Andy. Jack's got one right here.
1253
01:28:42,750 --> 01:28:46,561
Okay, we have an unusual procedure
for you here.
1254
01:28:46,621 --> 01:28:48,566
We need you to rip the cover off.
1255
01:28:48,723 --> 01:28:51,396
He wants you
to rip the cover off the flight plan.
1256

With pleasure.
1257
01:28:53,761 --> 01:28:56,138
CAPCOM 1 : The other materials
you'll need are...
1258
01:28:56,431 --> 01:28:58,308
a lithium hydroxide canister. . . .
1259
01:28:58,399 --> 01:29:01,277
Two lithium hydroxide canisters, l'm sorry. . .
1260
01:29:01,336 --> 01:29:03,611
-a roll of gray tape.
-Duct tape.
1261
01:29:03,671 --> 01:29:07,619
CAPCOM 1 : Duct tape. You need
an LCG bag.... Two LCG bags...
1262
01:29:08,443 --> 01:29:11,981

[Loud indistinct talking]
1264
01:29:17,618 --> 01:29:19,859
What about their level of carbon dioxide?
1265
01:29:19,954 --> 01:29:21,626
lt's climbing.
1266
01:29:22,990 --> 01:29:25,766
You're saying
that they're almost out of breathable air?
1267
01:29:25,827 --> 01:29:30,173
Wait a second. That's not what he said.
He said we're working on it.
1268
01:29:31,065 --> 01:29:33,841
CAPCOM 1 : You want to cut the duct tape
three feet long.
1269
01:29:33,935 --> 01:29:36,108
-Tell him to use his arm.
-Just use your arm.
1270
01:29:36,170 --> 01:29:39,116
CAPCOM 1 : lt's an arm's length.
FRED: Okay, l see what you're getting at.
1271
01:29:39,173 --> 01:29:42,415
Jack, tear that piece of tape
down the middle lengthwise.
1272
01:29:42,477 --> 01:29:44,786
CAPCOM 1 : All right?
FRED: Hold on, Houston.
1273
01:29:46,147 --> 01:29:49,685
While the astronauts appear to have
enough oxygen to keep them alive...
1274
01:29:49,784 --> 01:29:52,992
one thing they have
too much of is carbon dioxide.
1275
01:29:53,087 --> 01:29:54,964
With each breath, the three men expel...
1276
01:29:55,022 --> 01:29:58,093
more of the poisonous gas
into the lunar module cockpit...
1277
01:29:58,159 --> 01:30:01,162
and the scrubbers intended
to keep the atmosphere breathable...
1278
01:30:01,262 --> 01:30:03,435
are quickly becoming saturated.
1279
01:30:05,767 --> 01:30:07,610
Oh, shit, l tore it.
1280
01:30:10,972 --> 01:30:15,352
Houston, what do we do
if we ripped the bag? Can we tape it?
1281
01:30:15,510 --> 01:30:17,489
-They just tore the bag.
-Oh, no.
1282
01:30:17,545 --> 01:30:21,515
-Stand by. What should l tell them to do?
-They should have one more bag left.
1283
01:30:21,616 --> 01:30:24,323
But they've still got a long way to come...
1284
01:30:24,385 --> 01:30:29,334
and are now working on backup facilities,
their emergency facilities.
1285
01:30:29,490 --> 01:30:33,301
The problem is, if anything more
goes wrong, they're in real trouble.
1286
01:31:02,757 --> 01:31:06,636
As most of you are aware,
there is no rescue possible in space flight.
1287
01:31:06,727 --> 01:31:10,834
Any rescue system the space agency
has long since calculated....
1288
01:31:11,165 --> 01:31:14,771
Any rescue system
the space agency calculated....
1289
01:31:19,474 --> 01:31:20,543
One sock.
1290
01:31:20,608 --> 01:31:22,314
CAPCOM 1 : Cnce you have
the sock in place...
1291
01:31:22,410 --> 01:31:24,480
-we're gonna want you...
-Work it in.
1292
01:31:24,579 --> 01:31:27,958
...to bungee the entire filter assembly
to the bulkhead...
1293
01:31:28,015 --> 01:31:30,961
CAPCOM 1 : right above the LEM canister.
JACK: We're getting close to 1 5.
1294
01:31:32,286 --> 01:31:37,030
So how does this flight compare
to other emergency situations you've faced?
1295
01:31:37,792 --> 01:31:40,863
l'll have to say
that this is the most serious situation. . .
1296
01:31:40,962 --> 01:31:43,374
we've ever encountered
in manned space flight.
1297
01:31:43,464 --> 01:31:47,207
FRED: Houston, filter's in place.
JACK: Cabin gas return to egress.
1298
01:31:47,869 --> 01:31:50,178
FRED: Suit circuit relief to close.
1299
01:31:50,338 --> 01:31:53,478
FRED: CO2 canister select to secondary.
JACK: All right.
1300
01:31:55,209 --> 01:31:56,619
Here goes.
1301
01:31:58,045 --> 01:31:59,990
l can hear air moving.
1302
01:32:12,894 --> 01:32:15,135
Just breathe normal, fellas.
1303
01:32:17,098 --> 01:32:19,840
CAPCOM 1 : Aquarius,
please advise on CO2 status.
1304
01:32:20,768 --> 01:32:23,976
Houston, we're taking a look
at those numbers now.
1305
01:32:27,808 --> 01:32:30,788
We're still holding close to 1 5, Houston.
1306
01:32:30,945 --> 01:32:32,981
CAPCOM 1 : Roger that. Standing by.
1307
01:32:43,858 --> 01:32:47,203
Houston, the CO2 level

01:32:48,596 --> 01:32:50,632
and it is still falling.
1309
01:32:55,269 --> 01:32:57,442
That is good to hear, Aquarius.
1310
01:32:57,505 --> 01:33:00,451
And you, sir, are a steely-eyed missile man.

1312
01:33:08,916 --> 01:33:10,087

l don't know that yet, John.
1319
01:33:28,769 --> 01:33:32,478
The sequence was wrong. We just
have to go back and try them one at a time.
1320
01:33:33,708 --> 01:33:35,278
You need a break, Ken?
1321
01:33:35,476 --> 01:33:38,286
lf they don't get one, l don't get one.
1322

get me another one.
1323
01:33:45,052 --> 01:33:48,294
BLANCH: My son's supposed to be on.
ORDERLY: l know, Mrs. Lovell.
1324
01:33:48,389 --> 01:33:49,833
Hi, Blanch.

1328
01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:01,002
l was gonna see Jimmy.
1329
01:34:01,369 --> 01:34:02,404
l know.
1330
01:34:05,039 --> 01:34:07,382
We came to tell you something.
1331
01:34:08,142 --> 01:34:11,748
There's been an accident.
Jimmy's okay, he's all right.
1332
01:34:14,215 --> 01:34:17,218
But he's not gonna get to walk on the moon.
1333
01:34:18,052 --> 01:34:20,054
Well, they said he was.
1334
01:34:20,688 --> 01:34:22,724
l know.
1335
01:34:25,359 --> 01:34:26,838
That was before.
1336
01:34:27,194 --> 01:34:30,504
Now there's been an explosion,
and they're all okay. . .
1337
01:34:30,564 --> 01:34:34,603
they're all right.
But now they're just going to. . .
1338
01:34:36,003 --> 01:34:38,915
try to figure out a way to get them home.
1339
01:34:44,845 --> 01:34:47,257
And it's a little bit dangerous.
1340
01:34:48,716 --> 01:34:50,195
Oh, sweetie.
1341
01:34:54,188 --> 01:34:55,758
Are you scared?

Well, don't you worry, honey.

CAPCOM 2: Jack, you'll be happy to hear
we contacted President Nixon...
1348
01:35:53,581 --> 01:35:57,187
and he's gonna grant you
an extension on your income taxes...
1349
01:35:57,418 --> 01:36:01,161
since you are most decidedly
out of the country.
1350
01:36:03,424 --> 01:36:05,267
Roger that, Houston.
1351
01:36:05,626 --> 01:36:07,571
That's wonderful news.
1352
01:36:07,628 --> 01:36:09,607

from the flight surgeon. . .
1355

that you fellas get some more sleep.
1356

1361
01:36:41,829 --> 01:36:43,706
13, this is Houston.
1362
01:36:44,198 --> 01:36:47,645
Jim, we just had a dropout
on your bio-med sensors.
1363
01:36:48,035 --> 01:36:50,640
l'm not wearing
my bio-med sensors, Houston.
1364
01:37:01,248 --> 01:37:03,523
Okay, Jim. Copy that.
1365
01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:21,703
Now l'm losing all three of them !
1366
01:37:22,369 --> 01:37:25,008
lt's just a little medical mutiny, Doc.
1367
01:37:25,472 --> 01:37:27,781
l'm sure the guys are still with us.
1368
01:37:28,776 --> 01:37:31,222
Let's cut them some slack, okay?
1369
01:37:42,823 --> 01:37:45,769
Gene, it's not the velocity, it's the angle.
1370
01:37:46,327 --> 01:37:50,275
Maybe they're still venting something
and that's throwing off the trajectory. . .
1371
01:37:50,331 --> 01:37:52,140
but we are definitely shallowing again.
1372
01:37:52,233 --> 01:37:55,009
-We are up to a 5.9.
-Damn it.
1373
01:37:55,102 --> 01:37:58,674
At this rate, they nick the atmosphere
and bounce off into space.
1374
01:37:58,772 --> 01:38:00,808
We need another burn to get them back.
1375
01:38:00,875 --> 01:38:03,480
-Another burn.
-Fire the engines, get them on course.
1376
01:38:03,544 --> 01:38:04,579
Copy that.

CAPCOM 2: Aquarius, this is Houston.
1378
01:38:28,402 --> 01:38:29,778

1379
01:38:30,938 --> 01:38:33,714

another course correction for you.

Something about another course correction.
1382
01:38:38,545 --> 01:38:40,684
We copy, Houston.
1383
01:38:41,882 --> 01:38:45,693
Be advised, it's gonna take Freddo and l
a while to power up the computer. . .
1384
01:38:45,753 --> 01:38:49,359
for the alignment platform
if we have to fire the engine.
1385

CAPCOM 2: Negative on that, Jim.
We can't spare power for the computer.
1386
01:38:54,962 --> 01:38:56,600
We gotta do this blind?
1387
01:38:56,697 --> 01:39:00,201
JlM: Houston, without the computer,
what do we use for orientation?
1388
01:39:00,634 --> 01:39:03,512
Come on, we gotta be able
to give these guys something.
1389
01:39:03,604 --> 01:39:04,946
Without the power,
we can't give them a reading.
1390
01:39:06,173 --> 01:39:08,209
Not power. l'm talking about reference.
1391
01:39:08,309 --> 01:39:11,380
GUlDO: No, there's no references.
We have a bunch of debris up there. . . .
1392
01:39:11,478 --> 01:39:14,390
Houston, what's the story with this burn?
1393
01:39:14,682 --> 01:39:17,628
CAPCOM 2: We're trying to hash
something out down here, Aquarius.
1394
01:39:17,885 --> 01:39:19,227
Stand by.
1395
01:39:19,887 --> 01:39:24,494
Look, Houston, all we need to hold attitude
is one fixed point in space.
1396
01:39:25,125 --> 01:39:28,196
JlM: ls that not correct?
CAPCOM 2: Yeah. Roger that, Jim.
1397
01:39:32,800 --> 01:39:34,904
JlM: Well, Houston, we've got one.
1398
01:39:35,569 --> 01:39:38,606
lf we can keep the Earth
in the window, flying manually. . .
1399
01:39:39,106 --> 01:39:41,677
the crosshairs right on its terminator...
1400
01:39:41,775 --> 01:39:45,017
all l have to know is,
how long do we need to burn the engine?
1401
01:39:45,112 --> 01:39:48,092
-The shorter, the better.
-Roger that, Jim.
1402
01:39:48,282 --> 01:39:51,160
Can they fly it manually
and still shut it down on time. . .
1403
01:39:51,251 --> 01:39:52,661
without the computer?
1404
01:39:55,823 --> 01:39:57,666
GENE: l guess that's the best we can do.
1405
01:39:57,758 --> 01:39:59,293
We're out of time.
1406
01:39:59,360 --> 01:40:01,601
ln order to enter the atmosphere safely...
1407
01:40:01,662 --> 01:40:04,972
the crew must aim for a corridor
just two-and-a-half degrees wide.
1408
01:40:05,032 --> 01:40:08,638
lf they're too steep, they'll incinerate
in the steadily thickening air.
1409
01:40:08,702 --> 01:40:11,705
lf they're too shallow,
they'll ricochet off the atmosphere...
1410
01:40:11,805 --> 01:40:13,181
like a rock skipping off a pond.
1411
01:40:13,273 --> 01:40:17,778
The re-entry corridor is, in fact, so narrow
that if this basketball were the Earth...
1412
01:40:17,845 --> 01:40:22,020
and this softball were the moon,
and the two were placed 1 4 feet apart...
1413
01:40:22,216 --> 01:40:26,391
the crew would have to hit a target
no thicker than this piece of paper.
1414
01:40:26,487 --> 01:40:28,967
On your toes. We're doing this one blind.
1415
01:40:29,023 --> 01:40:31,662
Gene, understand
that we've never tried this before:
1416
01:40:31,725 --> 01:40:35,729
burn, cold soak, burn, cold soak,
burn, manual control.
1417
01:40:35,829 --> 01:40:37,740
Look, it will ignite, will it not?
1418
01:40:37,831 --> 01:40:41,403
l just want you to know
the engine's never been tried like this.
1419
01:40:41,502 --> 01:40:43,914
That's all l'm trying to tell you.
1420
01:40:44,004 --> 01:40:48,316
l know what you're trying to do. l guarantee
l won't hold you personally responsible.
1421
01:40:48,375 --> 01:40:51,651
lf it lights, it lights. Let Lovell do the rest.
1422
01:40:52,413 --> 01:40:53,584
Okay.
1423
01:40:53,981 --> 01:40:56,256
ANCHORMAN: They'll burn the engine
and steer manually...
1424
01:40:56,316 --> 01:40:58,921
attempting to keep the Earth in the window.
1425
01:41:06,226 --> 01:41:08,467
Okay, this is gonna take all three of us.
1426
01:41:09,229 --> 01:41:12,972
Freddo, you handle the pitch.
1427
01:41:13,467 --> 01:41:16,038
Put on the translation controllers,
all backwards. . .
1428
01:41:16,136 --> 01:41:19,207
so if the Earth starts drifting down. . .
1429
01:41:19,273 --> 01:41:22,481
you need to thrust aft, not forward.
1430
01:41:22,810 --> 01:41:25,483
l'll do the same on mine
with everything else.
1431
01:41:25,646 --> 01:41:29,059
We're going to burn at 1 0% thrust
for 39 seconds. Jack, you time us.
1432
01:41:29,149 --> 01:41:30,252
Got it.
1433
01:41:30,584 --> 01:41:34,554
JlM: Give us a count of the last 1 0 seconds
up to 39. Let's not miss this.
1434
01:41:38,192 --> 01:41:40,194
You up to this, Freddo?
1435
01:41:42,096 --> 01:41:43,597
l'm with you.
1436
01:41:44,364 --> 01:41:47,504
Standing by for corridor control burn.
1437
01:41:47,568 --> 01:41:50,173
Okay, Jim, you can fire when ready.
1438
01:41:50,404 --> 01:41:52,747
CAPCOM 2: You are go for the manual burn.
1439
01:41:52,840 --> 01:41:56,287
Okay, X-plus button at 1 0 seconds. Mark.
1440
01:41:56,510 --> 01:41:59,252
FRED: Come on, baby. One more burn.
JACK: Nine, eight. . .
1441
01:41:59,446 --> 01:42:01,949
seven, six, five. . .
1442
01:42:02,049 --> 01:42:04,290
-four, three. . .
-Ullage is go.
1443
01:42:04,384 --> 01:42:06,955
JACK: ...two, one, ignition!
1444
01:42:08,889 --> 01:42:10,424
She's burning !
1445
01:42:10,724 --> 01:42:13,500
JACK: Master arm off.
FRED: Okay, here we go.
1446
01:42:13,627 --> 01:42:16,903
JIM: Helium regulator on.
JACK: RCS is go, 1 0% thrust.
1447
01:42:17,598 --> 01:42:21,068
JIM: Bring her around, Freddo.
FRED: l'm trying but it's dragging.
1448
01:42:21,468 --> 01:42:24,175
JACK: Ten seconds.
JIM: Drop it down, Freddo.
1449
01:42:24,271 --> 01:42:26,182
FRED: We're drifting!
JIM: No, hold what you got.
1450
01:42:26,273 --> 01:42:28,514
JIM: l'll roll it. Back off.
FRED: Can't get it stable.
1451
01:42:28,609 --> 01:42:31,089
She's dancing all over the place!
1452
01:42:31,145 --> 01:42:34,023
-Come to the right a little bit.
-Fifteen seconds.
1453
01:42:34,148 --> 01:42:36,321
FRED: She's drifting. l'm losing attitude.
1454
01:42:36,416 --> 01:42:38,987
JIM: Hold it right there.
That's it. No, Freddo, back!
1455
01:42:39,086 --> 01:42:41,327
FRED: Shit! l'm losing it!
JIM: Bring the Earth up.
1456
01:42:41,421 --> 01:42:43,764
Thrust forward, Fred. Come on.
1457
01:42:44,391 --> 01:42:47,235
FRED: Shit, l lost it! Where is it?
1458
01:42:47,294 --> 01:42:49,330
JIM: 7:00. Helium regulator's closed.
1459
01:42:49,997 --> 01:42:52,136
Bring it down, Freddo. Just nose it down.
1460
01:42:52,232 --> 01:42:53,972
-Okay, l got it!
-Thirty seconds.
1461
01:42:54,067 --> 01:42:56,103
JIM: Little farther. Ease your touch!
1462
01:42:57,404 --> 01:43:00,282
Damn it, that's mine. That's me. Around.
1463
01:43:02,242 --> 01:43:05,313
FRED: A little more. Come on, baby.
JlM: That's it. Hold it.
1464
01:43:05,379 --> 01:43:08,416
JlM: Back! That's it! Hold it! Steady.
JACK: . . .eight, nine!
1465
01:43:08,515 --> 01:43:09,857
Shutdown !
1466
01:43:20,727 --> 01:43:22,729
Houston, we have shutdown.
1467
01:43:22,829 --> 01:43:25,468
CAPCOM 2: That's close enough, Jim.
Good work.
1468
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:30,148
l knew it! How about that LEM!
How about it?
1469
01:43:31,972 --> 01:43:34,452
-Guess you can keep your job.
-You betcha.
1470
01:43:34,508 --> 01:43:38,456
CAPCOM 2: 13 , stand by. We're evaluating
our power usage on that burn.
1471
01:43:40,314 --> 01:43:42,657
Let's hope we don't have to do that again.
1472
01:43:56,563 --> 01:44:00,806
Gentlemen, you've given our guys
enough to survive till re-entry.
1473
01:44:02,102 --> 01:44:03,478
Well done.
1474
01:44:06,907 --> 01:44:10,252
Now we gotta get them in,
so tell me about the power-up procedures.
1475
01:44:10,310 --> 01:44:12,790
Here's the order of what l want to do.
1476
01:44:12,846 --> 01:44:16,691
l want to power up guidance,
ECS, communications. . .
1477
01:44:17,517 --> 01:44:21,624
warm up the pyros for the parachutes
and the command module thrusters.
1478
01:44:21,855 --> 01:44:24,597
The thrusters will put you
over budget on amps.
1479
01:44:24,758 --> 01:44:28,762
They've been sitting at 200 below
for four days. They gotta be heated.
1480
01:44:28,829 --> 01:44:30,831
Fine. Then trade off the parachutes.
1481
01:44:31,265 --> 01:44:35,178
-lf the chutes don't open, what's the point?
-You're telling me what you need.
1482
01:44:35,269 --> 01:44:39,046
l'm telling you what we have to work with.
l'm not making this stuff up.
1483
01:44:39,139 --> 01:44:41,209
They're going to need all these systems.
1484
01:44:41,308 --> 01:44:44,812
We do not have the power, Ken.
We just don't have it.
1485
01:44:48,482 --> 01:44:52,225
l'll reorganize the sequencing again
and find more power.
1486
01:44:52,719 --> 01:44:55,699
Let's start from scratch. Clear the board.
1487
01:44:58,992 --> 01:45:01,369
l don't know where the hell we'll find it.
1488
01:45:02,229 --> 01:45:05,767
Apollo 13 commander Jim Lovell
has more time in space...
1489
01:45:05,866 --> 01:45:08,744
almost 24 days already,
than any other man...
1490
01:45:08,802 --> 01:45:11,441
and l asked him recently
if he ever was scared.
1491
01:45:11,538 --> 01:45:14,712
JIM: [On TV] l've had an engine flame out
a few times in an aircraft...
1492
01:45:14,775 --> 01:45:19,690
and was curious as to whether it was going
to light up again, things of that nature...
1493
01:45:19,746 --> 01:45:21,850
but they seem to work out.
1494
01:45:22,549 --> 01:45:23,755
BERGMAN: ls there an instance...
1495
01:45:23,817 --> 01:45:27,059
in an airplane emergency
when you can recall fear?
1496
01:45:28,422 --> 01:45:31,300
JIM: Well, l remember this one time...
1497
01:45:31,391 --> 01:45:35,202
in a Banshee at night in combat conditions,
so the carrier has no lights.
1498
01:45:35,262 --> 01:45:37,901
lt wes the Shangri-la.
We were in the Sea of Japan.
1499
01:45:37,964 --> 01:45:41,604
My radar had jammed,
and my homing signal was gone...
1500
01:45:41,702 --> 01:45:45,081
because somebody in Japan
was using the same frequency...
1501
01:45:45,472 --> 01:45:48,714
and so it was leading me away
from where l was supposed to be.
1502
01:45:49,142 --> 01:45:54,057
l'm looking down at a big, black ocean,
so l flip on my map light.
1503
01:45:54,481 --> 01:45:58,156
Then, suddenly, zap! Everything shorts out
right there in my cockpit.
1504
01:45:58,251 --> 01:46:02,529
All my instruments and lights are gone,
l can't even tell what my altitude is.
1505
01:46:03,323 --> 01:46:07,896
l know l'm running out of fuel,
so l'm thinking about ditching in the ocean.
1506
01:46:08,462 --> 01:46:11,568
l look down there,
and then in the darkness...
1507
01:46:11,665 --> 01:46:14,304
there's this green trail.
1508
01:46:14,468 --> 01:46:18,882
lt's like a long carpet that's just laid
out beneath me. lt was the algae!
1509
01:46:20,040 --> 01:46:24,079
lt was that phosphorescent stuff that gets
churned up in the wake of a big ship.
1510
01:46:24,177 --> 01:46:26,418
lt was just leading me home.
1511
01:46:26,713 --> 01:46:29,819
And if my cockpit lights
hadn't shorted out...
1512
01:46:29,883 --> 01:46:32,192
there's no way
l'd have ever been able to see that.
1513
01:46:32,252 --> 01:46:34,823
So, you never know...
1514
01:46:34,921 --> 01:46:38,368
what events are going to transpire
to get you home.
1515
01:46:43,163 --> 01:46:47,076
BERGMAN: Spacecraft commander
Jim Lovell, no stranger to emergency is he.
1516
01:46:58,245 --> 01:47:00,952
-How's it going, Fred?
-l'm okay.
1517
01:47:01,314 --> 01:47:02,758
[Loud banging]
1518
01:47:03,350 --> 01:47:05,090
What the hell was that?
1519
01:47:05,986 --> 01:47:08,295
Let's hope it was just the burst disk.
1520
01:47:08,355 --> 01:47:12,428
JlM: Can you confirm a burst helium disk?
CAPCOM 1 : Wo confirm that.
1521
01:47:12,592 --> 01:47:16,267
Houston, is that going to affect
our entry angle at all?
1522
01:47:16,830 --> 01:47:20,106
CAPCOM 1 : Negative. Your entry angle
is holding at 6.24, Aquarius.
1523
01:47:20,834 --> 01:47:22,210
JlM: Houston. . .
1524
01:47:24,204 --> 01:47:28,311
we sure could use
the re-entry procedure up here.
1525
01:47:29,209 --> 01:47:31,279
When can we expect that?
1526
01:47:33,647 --> 01:47:35,990
That's coming real soon, Aquarius.
1527
01:47:36,049 --> 01:47:37,653
Houston, we. . . .
1528
01:47:38,618 --> 01:47:41,724
We just can't throw this together
at the last minute.
1529
01:47:41,855 --> 01:47:44,232
So, here's what you're gonna do.
1530
01:47:44,524 --> 01:47:48,199
You're gonna get the procedure up to us,
whatever it is. . .
1531
01:47:48,395 --> 01:47:52,536
and we're gonna go over it step by step,
so there's no foul-ups.
1532
01:47:53,633 --> 01:47:56,477
l don't have to tell you
we're all a little tired up here.
1533
01:47:56,570 --> 01:47:59,346
The world's getting awfully big
in the window.
1534
01:47:59,639 --> 01:48:02,051
-Jim, this is Deke.
-lt's Deke.
1535
01:48:02,476 --> 01:48:04,751
They don't know how to do it.
1536
01:48:05,278 --> 01:48:06,882
Maybe Jack's right.
1537
01:48:08,448 --> 01:48:10,325
Hello, Deke. What's the story?
1538
01:48:10,417 --> 01:48:14,387
We're gonna get that procedure to you
as soon as we possibly can.
1539
01:48:14,488 --> 01:48:16,865
Ken Mattingly's in the simulator right now.
1540
01:48:18,191 --> 01:48:20,034
Ken's working on it?
1541
01:48:23,763 --> 01:48:27,335
Look, l know this sequence works, John.
1542
01:48:27,467 --> 01:48:30,209
lt looks good.
We're just over budget on the amperage.
1543
01:48:30,303 --> 01:48:32,646
KEN: By how much?
ARTHUR: Three or four amps.
1544
01:48:32,706 --> 01:48:34,845
God damn it, John ! ls it three or four?
1545
01:48:35,008 --> 01:48:36,487
-Four.
-Four!
1546
01:48:38,144 --> 01:48:39,714
Four more amps.
1547
01:48:50,390 --> 01:48:53,200
They have some power left
in the LEM batteries, right?
1548
01:48:53,326 --> 01:48:54,497
ARTHUR: Yeah.
1549
01:48:55,795 --> 01:48:59,834
We have an umbilical that provides power
from the command module to the LEM.
1550
01:48:59,900 --> 01:49:03,472
-lt's backup for the LEM power supply.
-l'm listening.
1551
01:49:03,904 --> 01:49:08,546
So reverse it. Reverse the flow
and see if we can draw these four amps. . .
1552
01:49:08,608 --> 01:49:11,486
from the LEM before we cut it loose.
Why can't we do that?
1553
01:49:13,046 --> 01:49:16,652
-We don't have a procedure for that?
-You'll lose a lot in the transfer.
1554
01:49:16,750 --> 01:49:20,220
Yeah. But all we're talking about here
is four amps.
1555
01:49:21,421 --> 01:49:24,094
l want whatever you guys got
on these power procedures.
1556
01:49:24,157 --> 01:49:27,103
-Gene, they're already--
-Not all, just part.
1557
01:49:27,160 --> 01:49:30,106
-We've got to give them something.
-They're working on it.
1558
01:49:30,163 --> 01:49:32,267
-l'll get an estimate.
-God damn it!
1559
01:49:32,332 --> 01:49:36,575
l don't want another estimate!
l want the procedures now!
1560
01:49:49,015 --> 01:49:50,425
lMU is up.
1561
01:49:51,685 --> 01:49:54,324
KEN: How am l reading?
ARTHUR: Fine, so far.
1562
01:49:54,521 --> 01:49:57,126
KEN: Say again.
ARTHUR: You're under the limit. Keep going.
1563
01:49:58,124 --> 01:50:00,263
Okay. Floodlights to fixed.
1564
01:50:02,162 --> 01:50:04,699
KEN: Okay, l'm bringing up the guidance.
1565
01:50:07,434 --> 01:50:08,810
Here we go.
1566
01:50:10,337 --> 01:50:12,043
KEN: CMC Attitude lMU .
1567
01:50:13,206 --> 01:50:14,650
CMC source.
1568
01:50:15,542 --> 01:50:18,648
CMC mode, auto,
and we're on the computer.
1569
01:50:29,723 --> 01:50:32,328
KEN: Go ahead.
ARTHUR: ls your computer on now?
1570
01:50:33,059 --> 01:50:34,868
KEN: Up and running.
1571
01:50:35,695 --> 01:50:37,174
How do we look?
1572
01:50:46,673 --> 01:50:48,743
l think we got it, buddy.
1573
01:50:58,885 --> 01:51:02,491
Arthur, my notes are clear
on that last sequence, right?
1574
01:51:02,722 --> 01:51:05,828
ARTHUR: Excuse me, gentlemen.
KEN: l was getting a little blurry there.
1575
01:51:09,095 --> 01:51:11,131
GENE: Here's Ken. Here's John.
1576
01:51:11,998 --> 01:51:14,102
lt's good to see you, Ken.
1577
01:51:14,501 --> 01:51:15,775
This is the sequence.
1578
01:51:15,835 --> 01:51:19,077
GENE: Was it tried on the hardware yet?
ARTHUR: We didn't have time.
1579
01:51:20,106 --> 01:51:22,449
Aquarius, Houston. Do you read?
1580
01:51:23,443 --> 01:51:25,445
Yeah, we read you, Ken.
1581
01:51:27,514 --> 01:51:30,119
Are the flowers blooming in Houston?
1582
01:51:30,183 --> 01:51:33,994
That's a negative, Jim.
l don't have the measles.
1583
01:51:38,658 --> 01:51:40,762
Jim, is Jack in there with you?
1584
01:51:41,161 --> 01:51:44,039
Yeah, stand by one.
We gotta get him on comm.
1585
01:51:44,130 --> 01:51:47,042
JACKlE: Put those on the table.
JANE: Damn it. Thanks, Jackie.
1586
01:51:47,133 --> 01:51:49,476
l think it would really help if you could. . .
1587
01:51:49,536 --> 01:51:53,950
just distract her
when the heavy predictions come in.
1588
01:51:54,974 --> 01:51:57,113
-We'll give it a shot.
-Thanks.
1589
01:51:59,279 --> 01:52:02,885
Blanch, these nice, young men
are gonna watch television with you.
1590
01:52:02,949 --> 01:52:06,624
-This is Neil Armstrong, and this is Buzz.
-Nice to meet you.
1591
01:52:06,720 --> 01:52:10,793
-Hi.
-Are you boys in the space program, too?
1592
01:52:12,525 --> 01:52:16,131
Okay, Jack, give me a read-back
on that last procedure.
1593
01:52:16,429 --> 01:52:17,964
Stand by, Ken.
1594
01:52:21,735 --> 01:52:25,978
Ken, l'm having trouble
reading my own writing.
1595
01:52:26,072 --> 01:52:29,382
l guess l was
a little more tired than l thought.
1596
01:52:34,414 --> 01:52:37,053
Don't worry, Jack. l'll talk you through it.
1597
01:52:39,819 --> 01:52:42,629
Find the main bus breakers on panel 1 1 .
1598
01:52:45,158 --> 01:52:47,001
Yeah, main bus breakers. Got it.
1599
01:52:47,227 --> 01:52:48,728
KEN: Close main bus B.
1600
01:52:56,903 --> 01:53:00,680
Ken, there's an awful lot of condensation
on these panels.
1601
01:53:01,007 --> 01:53:03,714
What's the word
on these things shorting out?
1602
01:53:08,047 --> 01:53:10,925
We'll just take that one at a time, Jack.
1603
01:53:13,386 --> 01:53:17,026
lt's like trying to drive a toaster
through a car wash.
1604
01:53:24,597 --> 01:53:26,508
JACK: Main bus B is closed.
1605
01:53:26,566 --> 01:53:29,171
KEN: 13 , we're coming up on entry interface.
1606
01:53:29,235 --> 01:53:32,875
FlDO: Flight, we're still shallowing up a bit
in the re-entry corridor.
1607
01:53:32,939 --> 01:53:35,112
lt's almost like they're underweight.
1608
01:53:35,241 --> 01:53:38,551
-Now how could they be underweight?
-We didn't land on the moon.
1609
01:53:40,280 --> 01:53:42,225
-Rocks?
-That's affirm.
1610
01:53:43,216 --> 01:53:44,660
KEN: One more thing, Jim.
1611
01:53:44,717 --> 01:53:47,697
While Jack's working on the power-up,
we want you and Freddo...
1612
01:53:47,754 --> 01:53:50,257
to transfer some ballast
over to the command module.
1613
01:53:50,356 --> 01:53:52,233
Say again, Houston. Ballast?
1614
01:53:52,859 --> 01:53:55,737
That's affirm. We got to get the weight right.
1615
01:53:55,795 --> 01:53:59,435
We were expecting you to be toting
a couple hundred pounds of moon rocks.
1616
01:53:59,532 --> 01:54:00,874
Right, Houston.
1617
01:54:01,267 --> 01:54:03,440
KEN: Now , Jack.
JACK: Yeah, go ahead, Ken.
1618
01:54:03,536 --> 01:54:05,811
KEN: Okay, now, panel five.
1619
01:54:06,472 --> 01:54:11,284
Circuit breaker caution
and warning main B closed.
1620
01:54:11,611 --> 01:54:13,317
Main B closed.
1621
01:54:13,413 --> 01:54:14,755
[Alarm sounding]
1622
01:54:14,814 --> 01:54:16,520
JACK: Master alarm off.
1623
01:54:16,716 --> 01:54:20,823
Okay, Jack, on panel seven,
b-mag number two, power to warm-up.
1624
01:54:21,054 --> 01:54:23,659
B-mag number two,
power to warm-up. Done.
1625
01:54:23,990 --> 01:54:26,402
KEN: Sequential logic one and two on.
1626
01:54:26,693 --> 01:54:29,571
JACK: Sequential logic, two on.
1627
01:54:29,863 --> 01:54:32,240
KEN: CMRCS pressure, on.
1628
01:54:32,799 --> 01:54:34,573
JACK: CMRCS pressurization.
1629
01:54:34,667 --> 01:54:38,171
ANCHORMAN: As her husband prepares
to jettison his lunar module lifeboat. . .
1630
01:54:38,238 --> 01:54:41,082
Marilyn Lovell waits
with her children, her neighbors. . .
1631
01:54:41,174 --> 01:54:45,645
and, we are told, Apollo 1 1 astronauts
Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
1632
01:54:46,012 --> 01:54:48,822
Only the Lovells' eldest son,
Jay, is absent. . .
1633
01:54:48,915 --> 01:54:51,088
as he holds vigil with his classmates. . .
1634
01:54:51,184 --> 01:54:54,358
at the St. John's Military Academy
in Wisconsin.
1635
01:54:54,520 --> 01:54:57,227
ANCHORMAN: [On TV] ABC News
science editor Jules Bergman.
1636
01:54:57,423 --> 01:55:01,166
With a crippled command module,
and surviving by using the LEM's systems...
1637
01:55:01,327 --> 01:55:03,272
there can be no easy maneuver.
1638
01:55:03,329 --> 01:55:06,605
Their LEM lifeboat is doing things
and working longer...
1639
01:55:06,666 --> 01:55:08,236
than it was ever intended to.
1640
01:55:08,301 --> 01:55:10,747
lt's a race against time until splashdown....
1641
01:55:11,004 --> 01:55:13,780
KEN: Wo're ready fo see
if the computer will accept...
1642
01:55:13,840 --> 01:55:16,149
uplink of the re-entry data now.
1643
01:55:17,477 --> 01:55:18,785
Okay, the lMU is up.
1644
01:55:18,845 --> 01:55:21,587
JACK: We got our eight-balls back.
KEN: Copy that.
1645
01:55:21,648 --> 01:55:26,358
Okay, Ken, uplink telemetry,
command module to accept, right?
1646
01:55:26,953 --> 01:55:29,490
That's affirm. Go ahead and try it.
1647
01:55:50,209 --> 01:55:51,949
JACK: Uplink completed.
1648
01:55:57,550 --> 01:56:00,223
-That's more like it.
-Okay, let's go.
1649
01:56:00,320 --> 01:56:02,561
Take a look at your amps. How we doing?
1650
01:56:05,525 --> 01:56:07,436
We got her back up, Ken.
1651
01:56:07,894 --> 01:56:09,896
Boy, l wish you were here to see it.
1652
01:56:09,963 --> 01:56:11,635
l'll bet you do.
1653
01:56:14,867 --> 01:56:16,539
Way to go, Jack.
1654
01:56:21,607 --> 01:56:23,711
RETRO: Flight, this is RETRO .
GENE: Go, RETRC.
1655
01:56:24,043 --> 01:56:26,546
Flight, we have a typhoon warning. . .
1656
01:56:26,646 --> 01:56:29,752
-on the edge of the prime recovery zone.
-Say again, RETRO .
1657
01:56:29,816 --> 01:56:32,125
We're looking at a typhoon warning...
1658
01:56:32,185 --> 01:56:33,994
on the edge of the prime recovery area.
1659
01:56:34,053 --> 01:56:36,726
This is just a warning. lt could miss them.
1660
01:56:36,789 --> 01:56:38,962
Only if their luck changes.
1661
01:56:39,158 --> 01:56:41,661
Jim, we're ready for SM jettison !
1662
01:56:42,462 --> 01:56:44,601
All right, Jack, on three!
1663
01:56:45,898 --> 01:56:47,809
One, two. . . .
1664
01:56:48,568 --> 01:56:51,275
JlM: Upward thrust.
JACK: We're loose!
1665
01:56:52,105 --> 01:56:53,777
Reverse thrust!
1666
01:56:54,040 --> 01:56:56,349
JACK: We have service module jettison.
1667
01:56:56,409 --> 01:56:59,116
JIM: Okay, Houston, service module is free.
1668
01:56:59,479 --> 01:57:01,652
We'll take a look at what we have here.
1669
01:57:01,848 --> 01:57:03,224
KEN: Copy that.
1670
01:57:07,387 --> 01:57:09,332
There it is. l see it!
1671
01:57:12,992 --> 01:57:16,234
JlM: Houston, we're getting our first look
at the service module now.
1672
01:57:16,329 --> 01:57:19,071
One whole side of the spacecraft is missing.
1673
01:57:20,500 --> 01:57:24,345
Right by the high gain antenna
a whole panel is blown out...
1674
01:57:24,871 --> 01:57:27,578
right up to our heat shield.
1675
01:57:29,042 --> 01:57:30,885
Copy that, Aquarius.
1676
01:57:30,943 --> 01:57:34,447
lt looked like it got the engine bell, too.
Can you see that?
1677
01:57:38,351 --> 01:57:40,524
Oh, man, that's incredible.
1678
01:57:43,890 --> 01:57:45,130
The heat shield.
1679
01:57:45,224 --> 01:57:49,866
ANCHORMAN: The heat will build up to as
much as 3,000 or 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
1680
01:57:51,197 --> 01:57:53,199
On a lunar re-entry flight, the heat....
1681
01:57:53,266 --> 01:57:54,745
ARMSTRONG: So, Blanch?
1682
01:57:56,636 --> 01:57:59,412
Did Jim make Eagle Scout or not?
1683
01:57:59,572 --> 01:58:01,312
-Yes, he did.
-He did.
1684
01:58:01,374 --> 01:58:03,581
ANCHORMAN: lf the heat shield
is even slightly cracked...
1685
01:58:03,643 --> 01:58:06,316
the extreme cold could've split it wide open.
1686
01:58:06,612 --> 01:58:09,786
Worst of all, if the pyrotechnics
that control the parachutes...
1687
01:58:09,849 --> 01:58:12,625
have been damaged,
the chutes may not open at all...
1688
01:58:12,718 --> 01:58:16,563
causing the spacecraft to hit the water
not at a gentle 20 miles per hour...
1689
01:58:16,823 --> 01:58:18,734
but at a suicidal 300.
1690
01:58:19,158 --> 01:58:21,069
CRONKlTE: [On TV] Perbaps never
in human history...
1691
01:58:21,160 --> 01:58:24,664
has the entire world been united
by such a global drama.
1692
01:58:24,797 --> 01:58:27,402
ln New York City,
thousands of people have gathered...
1693
01:58:27,500 --> 01:58:30,173
to watch updates of the mission
in Times Square.
1694
01:58:30,236 --> 01:58:33,216
Many countries offered help
and the State Department said...
1695
01:58:33,306 --> 01:58:35,251
it would ask for it if it were needed.
1696
01:58:35,341 --> 01:58:38,651
The House and Senate passed resolutions
calling on the people...
1697
01:58:38,711 --> 01:58:40,815
to pray tonight for the astronauts.
1698
01:58:40,913 --> 01:58:42,517
ln Rome, Pope Paul led...
1699
01:58:42,915 --> 01:58:46,692
50,000 people in prayers
for the safe return of the astronauts.
1700
01:58:46,919 --> 01:58:49,661
ln Jerusalem, prayers at the Wailing Wall....
1701
01:58:55,495 --> 01:58:58,407
lt's about time to bail out of this ship.
1702
01:59:05,738 --> 01:59:07,080
You okay?
1703
01:59:08,808 --> 01:59:10,309
l'm freezing.
1704
01:59:12,812 --> 01:59:15,451
Can you hold out just a little longer?
1705
01:59:15,882 --> 01:59:18,123
-Long as l have to.
-Come on.
1706
01:59:19,051 --> 01:59:22,464
lt won't be long. Just a little while longer.
1707
01:59:25,057 --> 01:59:29,835
Just a little while longer. We're gonna hit
that water in the South Pacific.
1708
01:59:30,663 --> 01:59:32,472
Open up that hatch.
1709
01:59:33,733 --> 01:59:36,611
-lt's 80 degrees out there.
-80 degrees.
1710
01:59:39,505 --> 01:59:42,918
-You are a mess.
-Yeah.
1711
01:59:44,944 --> 01:59:47,651
KEN: Odyssey, Houston.
How we doing, guys?
1712
01:59:47,747 --> 01:59:49,988
We're closing in on lunar module jettison.
1713
01:59:50,082 --> 01:59:52,289
As you know, that is time critical.
1714
01:59:52,351 --> 01:59:54,956
You should be moving
into the command module.
1715
01:59:55,021 --> 01:59:56,659
Let's get that hatch buttoned up...
1716
01:59:56,756 --> 01:59:59,532
and when you get a chance,
let us know how you're doing.
1717
01:59:59,759 --> 02:00:01,169
JlM: Roger that.
1718
02:00:04,297 --> 02:00:06,640
Let me give you a hand there, Freddo.
1719
02:00:41,801 --> 02:00:44,213
JACK: We're coming up on LEM jettison.
1720
02:00:44,537 --> 02:00:47,313
GENE: ls everyone strapped in, Ken?
We're getting real close.
1721
02:00:47,373 --> 02:00:51,685
Copy that, Flight. 13, Houston.
We're coming up on LEM jettison.
1722
02:00:52,178 --> 02:00:53,520
Stand by.
1723
02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:56,916
Have you got everybody in the Odyssey?
1724
02:00:57,016 --> 02:01:00,326
Yeah, Ken, l'm gonna check
those pyro batteries one more time here.
1725
02:01:01,821 --> 02:01:06,133
The pyro batts look good. l don't think
we have to tie the other batteries.
1726
02:01:18,671 --> 02:01:21,083
Sorry, Jack, this is an old habit.
1727
02:01:21,140 --> 02:01:24,450
l'm kind of used to the pilot's seat.
She's yours to fly.
1728
02:01:29,815 --> 02:01:33,285
KEN: Odyssey, l want to double check
some re-entry procedures...
1729
02:01:33,352 --> 02:01:37,265
right after we jettison the LEM,
which is coming up in 30 seconds.
1730
02:01:38,157 --> 02:01:39,658
What is that?
1731
02:01:41,193 --> 02:01:42,797
JACK: l was getting a little punchy. . .
1732
02:01:42,862 --> 02:01:46,605
and l didn't want to cut the LEM loose
with you guys still in it.
1733
02:01:47,833 --> 02:01:49,710
That's good thinking.
1734
02:01:51,771 --> 02:01:53,511
Stand by, Houston.
1735
02:01:56,175 --> 02:01:58,518
We have lunar module jettison.
1736
02:02:06,385 --> 02:02:08,455
She sure was a good ship.
1737
02:02:09,889 --> 02:02:13,097
JACK: Farewell, Aquarius, and we thank you.
1738
02:02:23,703 --> 02:02:25,739
lt's almost time, honey.
1739
02:02:29,208 --> 02:02:31,312
RECOVER CREWMAN: Flight 966406.
1740
02:02:51,964 --> 02:02:53,499
Let me put it this way.
1741
02:02:53,566 --> 02:02:56,410
The trajectory may be off.
Their thrusters may be frozen.
1742
02:02:56,469 --> 02:02:58,642
Their guidance system
might be malfunctioning.
1743
02:02:58,738 --> 02:03:00,478
Their heat shield could be cracked.
1744
02:03:00,573 --> 02:03:03,576
And their parachutes
might be three blocks of ice.
1745
02:03:03,676 --> 02:03:05,712
Clearly, we have
some obstacles to overcome.
1746
02:03:05,811 --> 02:03:08,882
But now l'm asking you,
when will we know?
1747
02:03:09,949 --> 02:03:14,659
Blackout lasts for three minutes.
lf they're not back in four, we'll know.
1748
02:03:15,855 --> 02:03:19,700
Velocity now reading 34,802 feet per second.
1749
02:03:19,825 --> 02:03:23,033
-Range to go 2,625 nautical miles.
-Copy that.
1750
02:03:23,763 --> 02:03:28,575
Okay, Ken, we are aligned for re-entry. Jim,
we need that computer re-entry program.
1751
02:03:28,667 --> 02:03:31,545
-Fred, how are the batteries looking?
-Okay.
1752
02:03:32,405 --> 02:03:35,545
FRED: Batt A looks good.
KEN: Re-entry interface in one minute...
1753
02:03:35,608 --> 02:03:39,248
-Batt B, no volts, the amps are okay.
-...and 30 seconds.
1754
02:03:40,379 --> 02:03:41,721
FRED: Batt C . . . .
1755
02:03:42,748 --> 02:03:44,784
No volts, only two amps.
1756
02:03:46,018 --> 02:03:48,589
lt may die before the main chutes open.
1757
02:03:48,888 --> 02:03:51,800
Roger. Let's tie all the batteries
onto main A and main B.
1758
02:03:51,891 --> 02:03:55,429
They're still shallowing a bit up there.
Do you want to tell them?
1759
02:03:56,195 --> 02:03:58,971
GENE: ls there anything we can do about it?
RETRO: Not now, Flight.
1760
02:03:59,064 --> 02:04:01,703
-Then they don't need to know, do they?
-Copy that.
1761
02:04:01,801 --> 02:04:05,373
HENRY: RETRO says the typhoon
is still a presence in the splashdown area?
1762
02:04:05,471 --> 02:04:08,349
We got the parachute situation. . .
1763
02:04:08,441 --> 02:04:10,944
heat shield, angle of trajectory,
and a typhoon.
1764
02:04:11,010 --> 02:04:14,855
-There are so many variables, l'm at a loss--
-l know what the problems are.
1765
02:04:15,014 --> 02:04:18,017
This could be the worst disaster
NASA has experienced.
1766
02:04:18,117 --> 02:04:22,724
With all due respect, sir,
l believe this is going to be our finest hour.
1767
02:04:35,668 --> 02:04:38,307
Expect entry interface in 45 seconds.
1768
02:04:39,205 --> 02:04:41,344
And on my mark, your velocity. . .
1769
02:04:41,407 --> 02:04:44,649
will be 35,245 feet per second.
1770
02:04:46,145 --> 02:04:49,057
Mark 35 seconds to entry intertace.
1771
02:04:51,851 --> 02:04:53,330
Gentlemen. . .
1772
02:04:55,921 --> 02:04:58,663
it's been a privilege flying with you.
1773
02:05:40,699 --> 02:05:44,146
-Flight, we have loss of radio contact.
-Roger that.
1774
02:05:44,203 --> 02:05:46,706
Expect to regain signal in three minutes.
1775
02:05:50,376 --> 02:05:52,185
lt all depends on the heat shield.
1776
02:06:25,477 --> 02:06:28,116
BERGMAN: Back fo the lwo Jima
and our live cameras there.
1777
02:06:28,547 --> 02:06:31,926
The Navy recovery and rescue helicopters
already airborne...
1778
02:06:31,984 --> 02:06:34,828
circling, waiting for first radar contact.
1779
02:06:34,920 --> 02:06:37,627
ANCHORMAN: Three minutes until time
of drogue deployment.
1780
02:06:38,791 --> 02:06:42,136
Standing by for any reports of acquisition.
1781
02:06:47,166 --> 02:06:50,272
One minute and 30 seconds
to end of blackout.
1782
02:06:55,574 --> 02:06:58,179
CRONKITE: No re-entering ship
has ever taken longer...
1783
02:06:58,277 --> 02:07:01,189
than three minutes to emerge from blackout.
1784
02:07:01,246 --> 02:07:04,659
This is the critical moment.
Will the heat shield hold?
1785
02:07:05,084 --> 02:07:09,032
Will the command module survive
the intense heat of re-entry?
1786
02:07:09,355 --> 02:07:12,028
lf it doesn't, there'll only be silence.
1787
02:07:12,157 --> 02:07:15,228
-Mommy, you're squishing me.
-Sorry, sweetie.
1788
02:07:15,761 --> 02:07:16,864
lt's okay.
1789
02:07:33,212 --> 02:07:35,385
Okay, Flight, that's three minutes.
1790
02:07:35,447 --> 02:07:38,723
-We are standing by for acquisition.
-Copy that.
1791
02:07:40,386 --> 02:07:42,889
KEN: Odyssey, Houston. Do you read me?
1792
02:07:45,824 --> 02:07:48,065
CRONKITE: Expected time of reacquisition...
1793
02:07:48,127 --> 02:07:51,665
the time when the astronauts
were expected to come out of blackout...
1794
02:07:52,097 --> 02:07:54,770
has come and gone.
1795
02:07:55,834 --> 02:07:59,406
About all any of us can do now
is just listen and hope.
1796
02:07:59,471 --> 02:08:02,315
We're about to learn whether
or not that heat shield...
1797
02:08:02,374 --> 02:08:05,650
which was damaged
by the explosion three days ago...
1798
02:08:05,878 --> 02:08:08,654
has withstood the inferno of re-entry.
1799
02:08:12,751 --> 02:08:15,697
KEN: Odyssey, this is Houston.
Do you read me?
1800
02:08:21,927 --> 02:08:24,532
lNCO: Three minutes, 30 seconds.
Standing by.
1801
02:08:25,164 --> 02:08:27,507
KEN: Odyssey, Houston. Do you read?
1802
02:08:35,374 --> 02:08:38,252
KEN: Odyssey, this is Houston.
Do you read me?
1803
02:08:42,548 --> 02:08:45,187
That's four minutes. Standing by.
1804
02:09:07,372 --> 02:09:09,579
KEN: Odyssey, Houston. Do you read?
1805
02:09:18,016 --> 02:09:20,428
JIM: Hello, Houston, this is Odyssey.
1806
02:09:20,552 --> 02:09:22,395
lt's good to see you again.
1807
02:09:46,145 --> 02:09:48,488
Odyssey, Houston. Welcome home.
1808
02:09:48,814 --> 02:09:50,759
We're glad to see you.
1809
02:09:51,383 --> 02:09:53,487
-Good job, Ken.
-Thank you.
1810
02:10:38,163 --> 02:10:39,664
They made it!
1811
02:11:22,608 --> 02:11:25,782
Houston, we're at stable one.
The ship is secure.
1812
02:11:26,578 --> 02:11:28,921
This is Apollo 13 signing off.
1813
02:11:29,248 --> 02:11:30,590
Good job.
1814
02:12:09,988 --> 02:12:11,694
[Loud applause and cheering]
1815
02:12:22,434 --> 02:12:25,073
JlM: [Voiceover] Our mission
was called a successful failure...
1816
02:12:25,170 --> 02:12:28,412
in that we returned safely,
but never made it to the moon.
1817
02:12:28,907 --> 02:12:31,216
ln the following months it was determined...
1818
02:12:31,276 --> 02:12:34,347
that a damaged coil
built inside the oxygen tank...
1819
02:12:34,546 --> 02:12:39,153
sparked during our cryo stir and caused
the explosion that crippled the Odyssey.
1820
02:12:39,551 --> 02:12:41,894
lt was a minor defect
that occurred two years...
1821
02:12:41,987 --> 02:12:44,399
before l was even named
the flight's commander.
1822
02:12:44,957 --> 02:12:48,370
Fred Haise was going back
fo the moon on Apollo 1 8. . .
1823
02:12:48,427 --> 02:12:50,770
but his mission was cancelled
due to budget cuts.
1824
02:12:50,862 --> 02:12:52,864
He never flew in space again.
1825
02:12:53,198 --> 02:12:55,974
Nor did Jack Swigert,
who left the Astronaut Corps...
1826
02:12:56,068 --> 02:12:59,139
and was elected to Congress
from the state of Colorado.
1827
02:12:59,304 --> 02:13:02,216
But he died of cancer
before he was able to take office.
1828
02:13:03,675 --> 02:13:07,554
Ken Mattingly orbited the moon
as command module pilot of Apollo 16 . . .
1829
02:13:07,646 --> 02:13:11,457
and flew the Space Shuttle,
having never gotten the measles.
1830
02:13:12,117 --> 02:13:16,565
Gene Kranz retired as Director
of Flight Operations just not long ago.
1831
02:13:16,855 --> 02:13:20,029
Many members of Mission Control
have gone on to other things...
1832
02:13:20,125 --> 02:13:22,195
but some are still there.
1833
02:13:23,028 --> 02:13:24,507
And as for me...
1834
02:13:24,863 --> 02:13:29,004
the seven extraordinary days of Apollo 13
were my last in space.
1835
02:13:30,002 --> 02:13:34,006
l watched other men walk on the moon
and return safely...
1836
02:13:34,473 --> 02:13:38,716
all from the confines of Mission Control
and our house in Houston.
1837
02:13:39,845 --> 02:13:42,552
l sometimes catch myself
looking up at the moon...
1838
02:13:42,647 --> 02:13:46,094
remembering the changes
of fortune in our long voyage...
1839
02:13:46,351 --> 02:13:50,424
thinking of the thousands of people
who worked to bring the three of us home.
1840
02:13:51,623 --> 02:13:54,228
l look up at the moon and wonder...
1841
02:13:54,893 --> 02:13:56,599
when will we be going back...
1842
02:13:57,462 --> 02:13:58,565
and who will that be?
