Apollo 13
Jim Lovell, Jeffrey Kluger
In April 1970, during the Apollo 13 mission to the moon, an oxygen tank explosion on board the spacecraft left three astronauts—Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise—stranded in space. Originally published as 'Lost Moon,' this is the definitive account of that mission, detailing the harrowing struggle of the crew and the ground-based mission control team as they worked against time and impossible odds to bring the crippled spacecraft safely back to Earth. It is a story of incredible courage, technical ingenuity, and the triumph of the human spirit in the face of near-certain disaster.
