Apollo 13 -...

I was 2 years old when this happened.

Incredible. Wonderful.

Mind-boggling , given the technology of the time.

Thirty Eight years after the mission, I would like to award the Apollo 13 team the freedom of Machine Nation.





My mind still boggles over Apollo 13.

And why not.

Good luck - Young Dan will around in a minute to tell you they filmed it all in an empty dolphin tank in Orlando.

Edo, he may. Just as Iron trains follow Iron tracks.

I wish I was old enough to remember these babies flying.

As I said earlier, my mind boggles.....

No worries - the auld lad told me that he had me up to watch Apollo 17 - given that I was approximately 10 months old - I was probably too involved with working out me arse from me elbow to appreciate the fact that was the last mission to the moon - so far - I hope. I think we'll all be going back there very soon - The chinese are putting the fear of god up the Yanks and Ruskies - I think the next space race is only getting kicked off and now that they know for sure that there is uddles of water up there............

You are not alone in your wonder - I've been watching the Discovery channel recently - Its been brilliant.
