In April 1970, the lunar module Aquarius played an unexpected role in saving the lives of the three astronauts of the Apollo 13 mission (Commander James A. Lovell Jr., CSM pilot John L. Swigert Jr., and LM pilot Fred W. Haise Jr.), after an electrical short circuit caused an oxygen tank in that mission's service module to explode. Aquarius served as a refuge for the astronauts during their return to Earth, while its batteries were used to recharge the vital re-entry batteries of the command module that brought the astronauts through the Earth's atmosphere and to a safe splashdown on April 17, 1970. The LM's descent engine, designed to slow the vehicle during its descent to the moon, was used to accelerate the Apollo 13 spacecraft around the moon and back to Earth. After the accident, the LM's systems, designed to support two astronauts for 45 hours, actually supported three astronauts for 90 hours.
Lillebonne Apollo
2nd century AD
Provenance: near the Gallo-Roman theatre, Lillebonne (Seine-Maritime), France
Gallo-Roman production
Gilded bronze. The areas overlaid with gold leaf applied with the aid of mercury form a grid that is still visible in places, particularly on the thighs
H. 1.94 m
The knee, the right leg and foot, and the left knee and heel are modern.
The statue was discovered on July 24, 1823, and is the largest surviving Gallo-Roman bronze of a divinity. Apollo, the god of medicine and healing, held a lyre in his left hand, a type of composition particularly popular in northern and central-eastern Gaul. The statue was made by a local workshop, and The proportions and balance of the Lillebonne statue, together with the way the hair is arranged, demonstrate the influence of Greek models on the artists of Roman Gaul.
Acquired in 1853
Forget-me-Knot
Confusion reigns in David Tristram’s superb comedy. Is anyone who they say they are?

Forget-Me-Knot, by David Tristram, tells the tale of a man who may or may not be Robert Zeinfeld, found wandering and suffering from amnesia. Detective Inspector Monroe is the man charged with working out who this mystery man is, with the help – or rather hindrance – of Mrs Zeinfeld and his own wife Samantha.
Robert is a confused man, not of his own doing – a bump on the head resulting in amnesia and a night in the cells have attributed to that. Inspector Monroe is also a confused man, but he has nobody to blame but himself.
Robert has been found wandering the streets in his confused state. His Filofax knows who he is – but does anybody else? Monroe is on the case – or seems to think he is. More confusion rains down when Robert’s wife is summoned and doesn’t know what’s going on either; but what she does know is that Robert shouldn’t be anywhere near where he was found and probably with a mistress, whom he definitely shouldn’t be anywhere near. When the mistress turns up, utter confusion is unleashed upon the stage. Is Robert who everybody else says he is? Does he really have amnesia? If he doesn’t then what is he doing with a wife like that in the first place? Is anybody actually who they maintain they are?
Forget-Me-Knot has been described as ‘one of the funniest British farces … with superb laugh-out-loud comedy’. We think you’ll agree!

His hand finally through the bloody ALUS,
He will be unable to protect himself by sea,
Between two rivers he will fear the military hand,
The black and angry one will make him repent of it.
This piece from one of the first-stage engines of Apollo 11's Saturn V rocket was recovered from the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in 2013. The injector plate sprayed liquid oxygen and kerosene into the combustion chamber. The propellants passed through the small holes on the plate. The baffles protruding upward (bent by the force of the first stage crashing into the ocean) helped regulate the flow of hot gases. This was one of the displays at the St. Louis Science Center exhibit.

Project Apollo
Apollo was NASA's third manned space program, landing humans safely on the moon from 1969 to 1972. The Apollo program set several firsts including sending the first humans beyond low earth orbit, the first humans to orbit the moon, and the first humans to land on the moon.

Apollo's vet papers listed Oct. 2000 as his date of birth. We decided that with a name like Apollo, his day should be the 13th!

"KSC, FL -- Fred W. Haise Jr., Apollo 13 LMP, participated in a walk-through of the EVA timeline in the Flight Crew Training Building here today. Haise is deploying the tool carrier used on the lunar surface. Apollo 13, scheduled for launch from Complex 39's Pad A no earlier than April 11, involves a revisit to the lunar surface with the LM to land on the Moon's rugged Fra Maure region."

Hydroforming is the process of shaping aluminium tubing by using pressurised hydraulic fluid, giving the tubing a higher stiffness to weight ratio. By using the T4 Hydroforming construction on select Apollo models they are stronger and stiffer in the stress points of our frames.

A close-up view of one of the rocks brought back to Earth from the Apollo 12 lunar landing mission. The rock is under examination in the Physical-Chemical Test Laboratory in the Lunar Receiving Laboratory (LRL), Building 37, MSC. This rock is one of two breccia found in the contingency collection gathered by astronauts Charles Conrad Jr. and Alan L. Bean during their stay on the lunar surface. The breccia rocks, common in the collection of Apollo 11 lunar samples, have been rare in examinations of the Apollo 12 samples thus far.
