Digression-a coincidence of Tom Hanks in the play

Camden 2021-10-20 17:23:03

Tom Hanks plays the role of an astronaut in the play. The TV talk show he participated in is replayed in the news. The host asked him about some thrilling experiences in the past. He mentioned that once he lost all his power while driving a plane, there is a line: I want to be Forced landing at sea

(He originally wanted to make an emergency landing at sea, but later used other methods to successfully land the plane)

But Tom Hanks later played the role of "Captain Sally" and made an emergency landing at sea, haha, coincidence

    1994 was a shining year in film history, and this Apollo 13 was also one of the best works.

    I just watched it when I liked kevin bacon. The film from 1995 is a bit dull and long, but it is so beautiful to see so many uncles' faces when they were young

Apollo 13 quotes

  • John Aaron, EECOM Arthur: Power is everything.

    Gene Kranz: What do you mean?

    John Aaron, EECOM Arthur: Without it, they don't talk to us, they don't correct their trajectory, they don't turn the heat shield around. We gotta turn everything off, now. They're not gonna make it to re-entry.

    Gene Kranz: What do you mean "everything"?

    John Aaron, EECOM Arthur: With everything on, the LEM draws 60 amps. At that rate, in 16 hours, the batteries are dead, not 45. And so is the crew. We gotta get them down to twelve amps.

  • Jim Lovell: Okay, uh, good evening, America, and welcome aboard Apollo 13. I'm Jim Lovell, and we're broadcasting to you tonight from an altitude of almost 200,000 miles away from the... the face of the Earth, and we have a pretty good show in store for you tonight. We are going to show you just what, uh, life is like for the three of us in the vast expanse of outer space.

    Jim Lovell: Okay, one of the first things we'd like to do is provide you with the appropriate background music. So, uh, hit it there, Freddo.

    Fred Haise: [playing Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit in the Sky"] Hello, world!

    Jim Lovell: That, uh, was supposed to be the theme to "2001", in honor of our command module Odyssey, but there seems to have been a last-minute change in the program.
