At right is Henry Thompson, deputy director of manned flight support at Goddard.<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>President Richard Nixon learned of the crisis shortly after the explosion, and he met with Goddard Center Director John F. Clark the following day for an update. William C. Schneider, director of NASA\u2019s Skylab program, briefed the president on the status of the rescue mission in Goddard\u2019s Manned Space Flight Network control room, through which communications to and from Apollo 13 passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nation watched for the latest updates from their television sets, transfixed, as the rescue mission unfolded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The crew spent three-and-a-half grueling days in the lunar module. They rationed food and water, which mission designers had only intended to last two men a day and a half, not three men three days. Carbon dioxide reached dangerous levels in the lunar module before the team managed to convert square filters from the command module to fit in the round openings on the lunar module. When the crew shut the instruments off to conserve power, the inside temperature reached an icy 38\u00b0F.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But reorienting the lunar module to a return-to-Earth trajectory from a lunar landing course proved to be one of the most difficult and important obstacles to hurdle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigation and targeting functions were unavailable. Debris from the explosion made it impossible for the crew to navigate by the stars using the on-board sextant. In a nail-biting maneuver, the astronauts improvised by using the limb of Earth, or the horizon where Earth meets the atmosphere, as a reference point. They were then able to perform a controlled fuel burn to shorten the time \u2019til splashdown on Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flight Director Gerald Griffin in Houston later recalled of the alignment maneuver, \u201cSome years later I went back to the log and looked up that mission. My writing was almost illegible, I was so damned nervous. And I remember the exhilaration running through me: My God, that’s the last hurdle – if we can do that, I know we can make it. It was funny because only the people involved knew how important it was to have that platform properly aligned.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-cover \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1353\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?w=2048\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg 4003w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=300,198 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=768,507 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=1024,676 1024w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=1536,1015 1536w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=2048,1353 2048w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=400,264 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=600,396 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=900,594 900w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=1200,793 1200w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/apollo-13-anniv-celebration.jpg?resize=2000,1321 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Then-NASA Administrator Thomas Paine (center), together with staff members from NASA Headquarters and the Manned Spacecraft Center, applaud the successful splashdown of the Apollo 13 mission.

As engineers on the ground hurriedly created workarounds for each challenge that arose, such as the carbon dioxide issue, they could only be communicated to the crew via the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the mission was not able to achieve its scientific goals, NASA\u2019s rescue mission was an agency triumph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith astronauts Lovell, Haise and
