The Apollo missions had become so routine and perfect that the Apollo 13 mission generated little interest from the press - until a routine maintenance procedure caused an oxygen tank to explode, leaving the three astronauts trapped in a crippled capsule that might not ever make it back to earth. This movie describes the struggle of the astronauts and the Mission Control technicians in Houston to improvise a new set of procedures to safely return the astronauts back to earth as one crisis after another arises.
