Apollo 13 was a NASA lunar mission, launched on April 11, 1970, that became a harrowing near-disaster after an oxygen tank exploded on April 13, while en route to the Moon. The explosion crippled the spacecraft, forcing the crew to abandon landing plans and return to Earth in the Lunar Module. The successful, albeit dramatic, return of the crew is often cited as a testament to NASA's crisis management and the ingenuity of its personnel.
