Signed photograph of the damaged Apollo 13 Service Module. Satin-finish photograph of the damaged Apollo 13 Service Module, boldly signed in gold felt tip by NASA's heroic mission controllers Eugene Kranz, "Eugene F. Kranz, 'Flight,'" and Seymour Liebergot, "'Flight... we'd better think about gettin' in the LM.' 4/13/70, Sy Liebergot, Apollo 13 EECOM." In fine condition. The piece measures 8 inches by 10 inches.
Apollo 13, launched on April 11, 1970, experienced a critical failure on April 13 when an oxygen tank exploded, crippling the service module and leading to the iconic phrase, "Houston, we have a problem." The explosion caused a loss of electrical power and a critical drop in oxygen levels, forcing the mission to be aborted. Flight director Eugene Kranz and flight controller Seymour Liebergot were instrumental in helping to troubleshoot the technical issues that arose and played a key role in ensuring the safe return of the crew to Earth.
