Apollo 13 “A Successful Failure”. Today, we will learn about another mission which attempted to make it to the moon, but didn’t. Although this mission was not as successful, it is still as interesting as Apollo 11, and the astronauts on the Apollo 13 mission were equally as incredible. If you get a chance to watch the movie “Apollo 13”, it does a great job of showing this inspirational story.
