@Otttoz già. ha insegnato alla NASA che in un ambiente pressurizzato con ossgeno puro l'infiammabilità dei materiali aumenta drasticamente. Hanno imparato. E grazie a ciò, per esempio, la riaccensione, al rientro, del computer di andò bene nonostante la grande quantità di condensa che si era formata.

"Failure is not an option!"

Watched "Apollo 13" again.

The reason why I watch this movie again and again is that this movie always reminds me about the leadership.

One of the greatest movies I've ever watched.

Houston, we've had a problem.

Today in 1970, an explosion in an oxygen tank damaged the spacecraft, leaving the crew to circle the Moon and return to Earth without a lunar landing.

I happened to watch classic 90's Space disaster movie while I've been listening through by (the excellent version). It's my 2nd reading though I've seen the film many times. Spotted a few nods to Apollo 13 so far including the phrase "Steely eyed missile man" that I probably wouldn't have otherwise, I'm primed now to look for more!

Sci-Fi 5: Apollo 13 – April 11, 1970
Great historic moments have always inspired Hollywood. Sometimes they get it right, and sometimes there's more fiction than fact. Sci-Fi 5 explains how NASA's "finest hour" inspired retellings of 's mission on big screen and small. sci-fi-5.libsyn.com/apollo-13-

Happy 95th Birthday, Capt. Jim Lovell, American Astronaut. He is the only person who flew to the moon twice, but didn't land on it, as his second flight (and his fourth - and last) mission was which turned into a hair-raising masterpiece of emergency handling after a midcourse oxygen tank explosion. It was only due to his unmatched experience and the ingenious work of mission control that he and his two teammembers returned back to earth alive. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Love

Happy Birthday to Jim Lovell! Fun-Fact of Ron Howard's movie (A13) where Lovell had his cameo as the ship captain shaking hands with Tom Hanks. Howard wanted him as acting Admiral but Lovell insisted on his rank as Navy captain. He denied former higher military ranks in his career without duties. He authored 1994 book Lost moon that became base of the movie. @astrokramkiste

@tazz602 @JackDeeth There are many, MANY dumpster fires in computer UIs. Or, it seems to me, Star Trek hardware design, for that matter.

Which is probably why, in almost every single episode, there's a handful of (launch, not reentry) if not actually level incidents and everyone just accepts this as the way things are supposed to happen in spaceflight.

Working in space entails a fair degree of risk, but having had centuries to perfect the technology...
