Lost Moon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lost Moon: The Perilous Voyage of Apollo 13 (1994), later re-named Apollo 13, is a book written by Jim Lovell and Jeffrey Kluger. It is about the failed Apollo 13 moon landing mission, of which Lovell was the commander. The 1995 Ron Howard movie Apollo 13 is based on the book.
The Apollo 13 mission was planned to perform the third manned moon landing, and became famous for the astronauts' unlikely return to earth after the spacecraft suffered crippling damage in an explosion while en route to the moon.
