Although there were problems on every mission we flew during the apollo program. If you could look at the entire report, it is a book about that thick. It is in the archives so you could get it through freedom of information.

Apollo 13 at the second least number of problems of all the flights. We almost aborted apollo 14 an apollo 16 in response that theyre it will to work around and had them land. That was the natur

Dr. Kathryn sullivan, youve written a book about the hubble and were going to talk a lot about it today. Watching that video all these years later what was it like for you , knowing you are on board . It was one of my favorite moments. You just saw the skill, professionalism and calm of that Exceptional Team on full display. We all sat in the cockpit. We had no role in this at all. It was the guys on the screen but we just sat and listened, not to the commentator but to the technical communications, followed the discussion through. It was just a marvel. I had the Launch Control center get me the audiotape of the technical cont
