Why Nobody Watched Apollo 13's Live Broadcast

April 11th, 1970 is about to celebrate its 53rd anniversary soon. I remember the difficulty of living through the stress of just not knowing the outcome while everything transpired as well as the exhilaration of getting them back safely.


Tough times and the elation of a successful return took a while to sink in. The next day we all looked at each other and said, "Are you SURE they all made it back safely?"


"Lessons learned are like bridges burned - we only need cross them but once.


Is the knowledge gained worth the price of the pain - Are the spoils worth the cost of the hunt?"
