Apollo 13 was NASA’s third mission to the moon. Two days in and an explosion caused by a wiring short circuit seriously compromised the life support systems for the three astronauts creating a series of complex and extremely time sensitive problems.
Nasa at this time employed some of the most brilliant engineers, scientists and mathematicians of their day and what they ultimately achieved was a masterpiece of leadership, teamwork, communication innovation and decision making.
However, in the immediate aftermath of the explosion we see them not as brilliant men but like the individual components of a clock floating in zero gravity. They have not trained for this contingency, there is no plan and, momentarily, they have lost sight of their goal.
In the movie we see Flight Director Gene Kranz, portrayed by Ed Harris, step in to try and reassemble his team and harness their expertise. We can’t all be brilliant rocket scientists but we can all be Flight Director Gene Kranz.
