Apollo 13 was a historic manned lunar-landing mission, part of Project Apollo under NASA in the United States. Commander James A. Lovell led the crew, which also consisted of Command Module pilot John L. "Jack" Swigert and Lunar Module pilot Fred W. Haise. The mission launched on April 11, 1970, but it was marred by a devastating explosion just two days later, caused by a fault in one of the oxygen tanks. The explosion severely damaged the Service Module, resulting in a loss of essential oxygen and electrical power. In response to this crisis, the crew expertly used the Lunar Module as a safe haven, or "lifeboat," in space. While the command module systems remained operational, they were deliberately shut down to preserve the vehicle's capability to safely reenter Earth's atmosphere. Despite facing extreme hardships due to severe constraints on power, cabin heat, and potable water, the crew successfully navigated their way back to Earth.
