Apollo 13: 6. Earth in view
Apollo 13 goes off course. With no computer, the astronauts must rely on their flying skills or risk being marooned in space. Their mission home hangs in the balance.
The Apollo 13 spacecraft goes off course. With no computer to guide them, the astronauts must rely on their flying skills to perform a high-stakes manoeuvre, timed with Commander Jim Lovell鈥檚 wristwatch, to get them back on target. If they fail, they risk being marooned in space. Their spaceflight home hangs in the balance.
