Great American story of many successes in the face of failure!
Definitely worth a watch – We all know the outcome, but I found myself absorbed in the drama nonetheless. I was only 7 years old when this occurred. Having watched the moon landing live on our old black and white TV a short time before this I am surprised I have no recollection of it as it was happening. I only knew of it later through my childhood love of the space program.At the time of its release Jim Lovell was 96 years old and is the oldest living former astronaut. Sadly, Marilyn Lovell passed away just over one year ago, in August 2023, and Frank Borman died in November of last year.
The unity humanity felt around the whole world during these tense few days is likely never to be felt again! In that regard, Apollo 13 was a great success!
Billions of Stars but just one Earth to return to
I very much enjoy the way these archival documentaries are compiled and edited. It is just as gripping and has the same impact as the film version and nothing is lost by telling the story using archival footage – and it keeps you hooked.Some of the comments made by Jack Swigert when out in the loneliness of space are quite moving. With images of the space all around them filled with billions of stars just gives you a sense of the hopelessness that they very likely felt.
The aspect of this documentary that most appeals is the fact that it stays in the period and does not introduce any talking heads that would break the spell. With the archival footage you are immersed in the time, just as they saw and experienced it, and it is that which makes it compelling. Any modern day comments are thankfully just voice overs which don’t break the spell.
This is a superb documentary and the makers are to be congratulated.
