Apollo 13
We watched Apollo 13. It's about these three men. Jim Lovell, Fred Haise, and Jack Swigert. They went into space but on the way to the moon one of their gas tanks went out so there space ship started to fall apart.The people in Houston tried to find a way to help the guys with what they had in the spaceship so they created a compartment to hold the gas tank and let them breathe more oxygen in since the lens was made for two guys not three.After they fix that,one of the guys,Ken, was suppose to go on Apollo 13 but Houston thought he had the measles.Ken sees that they might not make it back to earth so he tells Jim to start or turn off things to make it burn or speed up to get enough time to get back to earth.Jim,Jack,and Fred were up in space for a total of seven days.NASA doesn't tell them they might make it back so they relax on the way back to earth.When they survive and don't get disintegrated with all the heat there families are so happy that they survived.Jim says that Jack Swigert didn't go to space anymore and died right before going to the office for governor.Fred flew but not for everything,he went on Apollo 16.Jim didn't go in space anymore after that accident.They called the trip Successful Failure because they survived but didn't go on the moon.
