Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A telescopic photograph showing the Apollo 13 spacecraft in trans-lunar trajectory in the distant sky, immediately after the explosion in the service module. Arrows point to the spacecraft, to the oxygen cloud, and to the expended Saturn V third stage. Apollo 13 was tracked at the Manned Spacecraft Center (MSC) using a 16 inch Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope with an IO television camera with an S-20 type IO tube, mounted in place of the eyepiece. The TV camera information is stored first on a data disc and played back on a viewing monitor from which this photograph was taken.
