About this ebook
During the 1960s, humans were finally able to explore the universe beyond Earth. But at what cost? Many people lost their lives in a race to go where humans had never gone before. Find out what happened when an explosion on a spacecraft left three U.S. astronauts stranded in space 200,000 miles (321,869 kilometers) from Earth. With a limited supply of food, water, and oxygen, would they make it back to Earth alive?

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book is not really appropriate for an adult reader. But it still gets the facts out, and has plenty of excellent photographs (some taken from the Apollo 13 movie, but appropriately captioned).
