“APOLLO 13 RECOVERY--A perilous space mission comes to a smooth ending with a safe splashdown of the Apollo 13 Command Module in the South Pacific, only four miles from the prime recovery ship. The spacecraft, with Astronauts James A. Lovell Jr., John L. Swigert Jr. and Fred W. Haise Jr. aboard, splashed down at 12:07:44 p.m. (CST), April 17, 1970, to conclude safely the problem-plagued flight. The crewmen were transported by helicopter from the immediate recovery area to the USS Iwo Jima, prime recovery vessel.”
