Recommended reading - Lost Moon: The Perilous Voyage of Apollo 13, by Jim Lovell & Jeffrey Kluger (1994):


Lost Moon: The Perilous Voyage of Apollo 13

By Jim Lovell & Jeffrey Kluger.

Filmed as Apollo 13 (1995), directed by Ron Howard.

Published by Houghton Mifflin.
Published 1994
ISBN-10: 3445323232
ISBN-13: 9783445323231
ASIN: 0395670292

Description:

Out of the seven Apollo expeditions to land on the moon, six of the efforts succeeded outstandingly and one failed. Lost Moon is the story of the failure and the incredible heroism of the three astronauts who brought their crippled vehicle back to earth. This account – written by Jim Lovell, commander of the mission, and his talented coauthor, Jeffrey Kluger – captures the high drama of that unique event and is told in the vernacular of the men in the sky and on the ground who masterminded this triumph of heroism, intellectual brilliance, and raw courage. A thrilling story of a thrilling episode in the history of space exploration.
