Product Description
Book Description
A commemorative edition on the thirtieth anniversary of the perilous moon mission launched on April 11, 1970. "A thrilling story of . . . disaster and incredible heroism" (James A. Michener), APOLLO 13 recounts the hair-raising journey of Captain Lovell and his crew - a near- disaster the nation would never forget and a rescue that has been called NASA's finest hour. On the thirtieth anniversary of the mission, the authors add a new foreword and new photos to their 1994 bestseller (previously published as Lost Moon) and reflect on America's waxing and waning love affair with space exploration since the 1970s.
Synopsis
The story of the American moon shot that almost ended in a fatal catastrophe, told by the flight's commander, offers a chronicle of courage, heroism, and adventure.
