April 17: Apollo 13 Returns Safely

Edit

Apollo 13 was a 1970 NASA Moon mission that turned into a survival crisis after an oxygen tank explosion. The crew, aided by Mission Control, used the Lunar Module as a lifeboat and improvised fixes to return safely. Though the Moon landing was canceled, the mission became a landmark example of problem-solving under pressure.
