My View on Apollo 13

Many years later, I re-watched this film and still felt good. But besides being good-looking, I still have some rational thinking, write it down, and self-motivate.

1. Before doing anything, there will be some signs, good and bad. If you are too conceited or want to succeed too much, you will turn a blind eye to these signs, reduce your vigilance, and lose the opportunity to analyze the signs and pre-process.

2. Mutual trust between teams is very important. If you don't trust your teammate, then shut him out before you start, but once you become a teammate, you must trust 100%.

3. When there is an emergency, you must calm down and don't panic. Once you get out of your position, you will be ruined. Quickly sort out the clues from the inexhaustibles, judge various possibilities, and take the largest possibility as the starting point. But this does not mean that it is necessary to proceed according to a possibility, to constantly observe new changes in the processing process, and adjust the processing plan and focus according to the changes in the situation.

4. Sometimes it takes a lot of courage to give up the pursuit of a set goal, because there are too many eyes on your success or failure, there are too many reasons for you to prove your ability, but remember that reason should be the first. Temporary giving up does not mean permanent loss. "Stop rest and start again" may generate greater energy. I remember that the scientist with glasses, a small man and a bald head decisively advised the astronauts to close the battery and oxygen valve and end the mission to the moon. He was cautious and weighed again and again. He took too much responsibility because He knew that only in this way could the astronauts have hope of surviving.

5. Any success comes with risks. When risks come, don't be nervous, don't back down, solve problems methodically, and turn disadvantages into advantages. 6. Remember to never give up life. Remember to be grateful for life when you are alive.

7. At any time, anyone can become a substitute, but the substitute needs to be more self-respectful, because once selected, it means that without you, the task may not be completed.

8. A big task is a large-scale operation, and all individuals should actively participate, but all individuals should abandon personal heroism, remember to do their own links, do a good job with other links, and don't try to become the dominant one.

9. The most touching sentence was what the handsome and cool commander said: we are not losing the crew. This is a true team leader. It is not enough to be courageous and intent. The important thing is to have love in your heart, and the love and determination of "one cannot be less".

    The main melody is a good film, but whether the soundtrack can converge, it is already very dominant, and the music is still like that~~

    The overwhelming performance of major powers in leading fields has triggered the Matthew effect of stronger ones getting stronger. It is worth thinking about by our people.

Apollo 13 quotes

  • Gene Kranz: Gentlemen, at this moment, I want you all to forget the flight plan. From this moment on, we are improvising a new mission: How do we get our people home?

    [Goes to the chalkboard, draws a big circle representing Earth, another smaller circle representing the moon, then draws a line from the Earth to just short of the moon]

    Gene Kranz: They are here. Do we turn them around, straight back, direct abort?

    [NASA controllers instantly start arguing]

    Jerry Bostick - FIDO White: No, sir! No, sir! We get them on a free-return trajectory. It's the option with the fewest question marks for safety.

    Gene Kranz: I agree with Jerry. We use the moon's gravity, slingshot them around.

    R.E.T.R.O. White: No, the LEM will not support three guys for that amount of time. I mean, we've got to do a direct abort. We do an about-face, we bring the guys right home, right now.

    Booster White: Get them back soon, absolutely.

    Jerry Bostick - FIDO White: Look, we don't even know if the Odyssey's engine's even working. If there's been serious damage to this spacecraft...

    GUIDO White: They blow up and they die!

    R.E.T.R.O. White: That is not the argument! We're talking about time!

    [Controllers argue again]

    Gene Kranz: Okay, hold it. Let's hold it down. The only engine we got with enough power for a direct abort is the SPS on the service module. From what Lovell has told us, that could have been damaged in an explosion, so let's consider that engine dead. We light that thing up, it could blow the whole works. It's just too risky. We're not going to take that chance. About the only thing the command module is good for is reentry, so that leaves us with the LEM, which means free-return trajectory. Once we get the guys around the moon, we'll fire the LEM engine, make a long burn, pick up some speed, and get them home as quickly as we can.

  • John Young: [waking Ken Mattingly up] Good, you're not dead. I've been trying to get in touch with you for 45 minutes.
