AQ 363 = A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE (Our mission was called "a successful failure", in that we returned safely but never made it to the moon. In the following months it was determined that a damaged coil, built inside the oxygen tank, sparked during our cryo stir and caused the explosion that crippled the Odyssey. It was a minor defect that occurred two years before I was even named the flight's commander. Fred Haise was going back to the moon on Apollo 18, but his mission was cancelled because of budget cuts. He never flew in space again. Nor did Jack Swigert, who left the astronaut corp and was elected to Congress from the state of Colorado. But he died of cancer before he was able to take office. Ken Mattingly orbited the moon as command module pilot of Apollo 16 and flew the space shuttle, having never gotten the measles. Gene Kranz retired as Director of Flight Operations just not long ago. And many other members of Mission Control have gone on to other things, but some are still there. And as for me... the seven extraordinary days of Apollo 13 were my last in space. I watched other men walk on the moon and return safely, all from the confines of Mission Control and our house in Houston. I sometimes catch myself looking up at the moon, remembering the changes of fortune in our long voyage, thinking of the thousands of people who worked to bring the three of us home. I look up at the moon and wonder. When will we be going back? And who will that be?; Apollo 13 Script: Drew's Script-O-Rama; AQ-129 APOLLO 13) = AND WORDS ARE ALL I HAVE (Bee Gees; AQ-124 WORDS) = ARX OF THE CAPITOLINE (AQ-204 TULLIANUM) = BIO-HAZARDOUS PLAGUE = CLASS POLARIZATION = COIN HYPERSTITION = CUTTING AND RUNNING = CROWN CONTRACTORS (see: AQ-326 PETITION OF RIGHT) = DANGEROUS GODDESSES (Serqet, Scorpion Goddess of Magic) = DEVELOPED EXPERIENCE = DISCOUNT PROCEDURE = DIVINE PROPORTION = DON'T BOTHER TO KNOCK (Marilyn Monroe's first bona fide starring role) = ELECTRONEGATIVITY = EROTIC IMMOLATIONS (Derangement of the senses, M Satai) = FIFTH AMH IMPLICATION = GARDEN OF THE VIRGINS = HALF-LIFE 2 MODEL VIEWER = HYPERCOMPUTATION (AQ-246 COMPUTATION) = I AM ONE ONE ONE AND NONE = IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING = LACANIAN TRANSFERENCE = LEARNING FROM JOSEKI = LET'S STAY TOGETHER = MATERIAL CONDITIONS = NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS = OBJECT OF HELIOLATRY = PANDEMONIUM MATRIX = PRINCIPLE IS THE SAME = PROSPER LAMBERTINI (Pope Benedict XIV) = RACE/RELIGION MATRIX = RAZZLE DAZZLE ROSE = REGISTRATION AS DATA = ROMANTIC GENERATION = ROYAL DIADEM OF EGYPT = SEMI-EXIT STRATEGY = SERVANTS OF BABYLON (IKH, 11th Aethyr) = SINGULARITY KINKS = STEP UP TO THE PLATE = SUMERIAN TRADITION = THE BETRAYAL OF IMAGES (René Magritte) = THE CUP OF HUFFLEPUFF = THE END OF EVOLUTION = THE ITALIAN STALLION = THE NEWBURGH ADDRESS = THE START OF THE MAZE = THEY TIRED OF THE WAR (AQ-353 PERMISSION TO WIN) = THIRD PRIMARY CHAKRA (AQ-165 MANIPURA, AQ-95 BELIAL) = TRANSNATIONAL FRAME (Pete Nowakoski, Emory) = TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 2006 12:01 A.M.
