98 – Apollo 13

Jeff tells the incredible true story of Apollo 13, the near-disastrous NASA mission that became one of the greatest survival stories in space exploration history.What was meant to be a routine lunar mission quickly turned into a life-or-death crisis when an onboard explosion crippled the spacecraft. Astronauts Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert were left stranded in space, relying on ingenuity, teamwork, and ground support to make it home alive. Jeff also connects the lessons learned from Apollo 13 to the future of space exploration, including Artemis II, NASA’s upcoming mission aimed at returning humans to the Moon. Visit us on Linktree for the collection of links, Instagram, or email us at [email protected] NASA – Apollo 13 Review Board Report (50 Years Later) https://www.nasa.gov/history/50-years-ago-apollo-13-review-board-report/ Wikipedia – Apollo 13 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_13 YouTube – Apollo 13 overview https://youtu.be/69LDSL-9--g?si=-6O0okO2ecYx9uXp Wikipedia – Katherine Johnson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katherine_Johnson Wikipedia – Fred Haise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Haise Wikipedia – Jim Lovell https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Lovell Wikipedia – Jack Swigert https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Swigert Wikipedia – Ken Mattingly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Mattingly NASA – Apollo 13 Mission Overview https://www.nasa.gov/mission/apollo-13/ Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum – Apollo 13 Story https://airandspace.si.edu/explore/stories/apollo-missions/apollo-13 NASA – Katherine Johnson https://www.nasa.gov/katherine-johnson/
