Swigert Jr., command module pilot for the Apollo 13 mission, has just suited up in the Kennedy Space Center’s (KSC) Manned Spacecraft Operations Building during the Apollo 13 prelaunch countdown. Minutes later, astronauts Swigert, James A. Lovell Jr. and Fred W. Haise Jr. rode a special transport van over to Pad A, Launch Complex 39, where their spacecraft awaited liftoff. Launch occurred at 2:13 p.m. (EST), April 11, 1970.<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"display-block width-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"margin-0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-cover-wrapper hds-image-carousel-slide margin-bottom-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-cover \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"apollo_13_crew\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 38% 73%; object-position: 38% 73%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg 985w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=240,300 240w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=768,960 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=819,1024 819w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=320,400 320w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=480,600 480w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=720,900 720w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/apollo_13_crew_s70-36485.jpg?resize=960,1200 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Apollo 13 crew members James Lovell, John “Jack” Swigert, and Fred Haise.<\/div><div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"display-block width-full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"margin-0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-cover-wrapper hds-image-carousel-slide margin-bottom-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-cover \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1511\" src=\"https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=1920&h=1511&fit=clip&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 45% 26%; object-position: 45% 26%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=1920&h=1511&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1920w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=300&h=236&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 300w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=768&h=604&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 768w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=1024&h=806&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1024w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=1536&h=1209&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1536w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=400&h=315&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 400w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=600&h=472&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 600w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=900&h=708&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 900w, https:\/\/images-assets.nasa.gov\/image\/7008012\/7008012~large.jpg?w=1200&h=944&fit=crop&crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Apollo 13 astronauts Fred Haise, John Swigert, and James Lovell are pictured during the press conference after their ill-fated mission.
