I was watching a documentary about this mission and it turns out that center engine shutdown saved the crew's lives. It was vibrating so badly (called pogo) that it would have ripped the whole rocket apart if it kept running much longer. The reason it shut down is the flight computer detected how violently the engine was vibrating and cut it off.

[@gogamarra]

One often unnoticed inaccuracy that Ron Howard could have fixed is that Gene Kranz said the average age of his mission controllers was 27 with many in their first jobs out of college, hardly anybody in their 30s. Gene himself was 36 during Apollo 11 and considered the OLD man, albeit the leader of the pack. It would have been great to portray the Apollo generation as it was in those days. Gene felt that this was an asset, because 20 year olds are to unaware to know what is impossible. I'd hate to think that Howard thought hiring 20 year old actors would have been unbelievable and as a result didn't do it, because that's how it actually was.

This scene never gets old

[@MDE_never_dies]

3:45 “We see your BPC is Clear 13” 4:14 Actual BPC being removed with the LES “Launch Escape System” Edit: BPC Stands for “Boost Protective Cover” and was to protect the Command Module from the hot exhaust gases of the Solid Rocket Abort Engines from the escape tower, as part of the LES. This was here incase it was needed to haul the Command Module away from the main rocket in the event an emergency, and could be used on the ground or in flight (The latter being more dangerous, especially near “ Max-Q” Maximum Dynamic Pressure). This abort could be initiated by the “Abort” Handle as seen in the pre-launch shots of Lovell eying it up. The Abort could also be initiated automatically if a major fault was detected, by the Emergency Detection System or “EDS”, which Lovell reverts to Manual as seen here, meaning he had full control over whether the launch was aborted from there onwards. After the first stage is burned out and the S-II ignited however, the most dangerous part of the launch is considered passed, the spacecraft has cleared most of the atmosphere, passed max Q and is now just burning to pick up speed, thus the LES is jettisoned as it’s just deadweight “Tower Jet!”. The crew now enters Abort Mode-II, even with the LES gone, they can still abort the mission by using the CSM SPS Engine to clear the rocket and then orient themselves for a re-entry and splashdown, thus why Lovell is once again eying up the Abort Handle after the centre engine failed. The Centre Engine failed due to what is called “Pogo-Oscillation” whereby a partial vacuum in the fuel and oxidizer feed lines reached the engine firing chamber causing the engine to “skip”, and basically fire on and off. This caused extremely damaging vibrations for the launch vehicle. The cutoff necessitated the burning of the remaining four engines, which was fine. What is interesting is that it potentially saved their lives. The longer than anticipated launch meant that control changed some of their procedures and moved up the O2 Tank stir well ahead of schedule, during transit to the moon, instead of during it’s orbital phase of The Moon while the crew in the LEM was supposed to be on the Lunar Surface. Had that happened instead, the crew would likely have perished, so in a way the “Unlucky Mission” was actually the lucky mission.

My Great Grandpa knew that the Titanic would sink. He tried to warn people, but nobody listened. That didn't phase him, HE KEPT ON WARNING PEOPLE, until they finally kicked him out of the movie theater

I grew up during all the phases of putting men into space. I was 9 years old when Sputnik was launched. I didn't understand it and it scared the crap out of me. Was just going on watch in the Navy when Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon. I was hoping it would have been one of the original Mercury astronauts. Every one of those guys had a huge set of stones to ride those rockets. The high point of them all was the return of Apollo 13. American ingenuity at its best. The shuttle program was a farcical example of what happens when bean counters try to be engineers. RIP to those explorers who suffered the consequences.

Um dos filmes mais sensacionais que já foram feitos. Um elenco de primeir[issima linha! Ed Harris convence o tempo todo como o Diretor de Voo Gene (esqueci o sobrenome). Acho mesmo que ele foi o eixo central de toda a trama, desde o começo. Tom Hanks, com sua genialidade, certamente mostrou o grande ator que é, fazendo parceria com todos aqueles que permearam seu personagem no filme. Tudo fantástico. A liberdde poética do filme até existiu, ma certamente foi ofuscada pelo brilhantismo dos atores, desde os personagens mais simples, aos mais importantes da trama, todos foram geniais, magistrais! Tenho desde o tempo de VHS e agora, em DVD.Perdi conta de quantas vezes assisti.

i love listening to the "we have liftoff!"

[@GarettRyan-l1v]

A cinematic masterpiece.

[@wilecoyote5757]

I just love it that the surgeon is the only one smoking a cigarette. All pilots especially the commercial type dread flight surgeons that hold power over a pilot’s ability to exercise the privileges of either his or her certificate. I had two flight surgeons who died of pancreatic cancer during my career.

Jim Lovell, the consummate steely-eyed missile man.

おいらが見てきた映画でBEST5に入る名作ですわ(*´▽｀*)　もちろんDVD持ってます　そのあとトムハンクスが監督したFROM THE EARTH TO THE MOONも買いました。家宝ですわ(笑)

Christopher Nolan was taking notes on the zero stock footage approach to filmmaking.

[@gregkrekelberg4632]

At 3:32: That is a cool cameo. That's Jim Lovell the actual commander of Apoolo 13. He also appears later in the movie as the captain of the carrier welcoming the crew onboard.

[@Ryan_Christopher]

That timestamp shows nobody else but the cast.

[@stuartb3609]

[@richardarmstrong6513]

I'd never noticed this before and I've watched this film countless times. Cheers for this.

[@thenorthstars2210]

3:32 The real Apollo 13 Commander Jim Lovell sitting in the far seat away from the camera. This was one of his cameos in the movie.

[@mikealvord55]

Are you sure.He looks pretty young

[@brianfreeman8290]

In my book, probably the greatest film of all time.

One of my favorite scenes on demonstrating my home cinema setup to friends 20 years ago. Nowadays, the special effects seem cheesy. But still, I love miniature effects, brilliant.

[@OuaTiQ_1937]

احببت الاعلان وانا متشوق لرؤية للفيلم كاملا والاستمتاع به ، رائع جدا

[@prestonburton8504]

I don't know why people will say we never made it to the moon. i know they say, all of this was from NASA/Gov but it wasn't - we had armature Ham Radio that tracked each mission - saw the signals cut off on the 'dark side' - witnessed the telemetry that was sent by both craft, and scientific experiments left on the moon! 10s of thousands of separate I witnesses to the greatest achievement of men/women kind ever. I lived this era! When we walked THE MOON

[@oldprankster7606]

I remember the scene later in the movie, when the Astronauts are in the LEM and Lovell (Hanks) is trying to warm up a sick Haise (Bill Paxton, RIP). Apparently upon seeing the movie, Jim Lovell said, "I didn't hug him THAT long!".

[@jamiehale2136]

My family and I drove to California in July 1969... You know , Disneyland, Universal Studios, Knott's Berry Farm, Long Beach, Marineland, Beverly Hillbillies house.... The whole schmeer. My Birthday 🎂 is on July 15th... I turned 6 Armstrong stepped on the Moon on the 20th My Dad had a Polaroid Land camera. He took photos of the tv of man walking on the moon I still have them What a Trip I'll never forget

[@CloudStrife-zk6uv]

James Horner is the biggest loss to the human race. RIP best composer ever.

[@JayToGo]

Isn‘t it just incredible to see three people accelerating to the speed of a bullet? Even the design of the rocket is akin to a bullet. Hardly surprising.

[@fromnorway643]

You mean TEN TIMES the speed of a bullet? And that was just to get into orbit. They were going 13-14 times faster than a bullet when the third stage had done its job and they were on their way to the Moon.

I'll never forget seeing a Armstrong stepping on the moon on TV. I was just 4 years old at the time.

I was about 9. Remember when the first live shot was on TV, it was upside-down. They corrected it pretty quick!
