Two very enthusiastic thumbs up! I love this movie. So much so that I had to go out and buy the Special Edition with commentary by Ron Howard and commentary by Jim and Marilyn Lovell. I am a space nut!

I'd love to see that! Maybe I can rent it one of these days!

This happened in 1971, not 1976. Apollo 13 was the third mission to the moon. What was really amazing is that they even got home at all. All launches happened in Florida with Houston as the main control center for all spaceflight after 1966 I believe. One of the reasons that the Houston facility is called the LB Johnson Space Center is because he was an enthustaic supporter of the space program. If you are interested I definately recommend buying or renting "From Earth to the Moon" which was Tom Hank's attempt to show the entire Apollo program. If you can sit and watch it for several nights its wonderful. Just takes a little dedication.

Thanks, Stephen. I have no idea where I got "1976." I did a search, and it was really in 1970. I've been wanting to see "From Earth to the Moon," but I just haven't taken the time. I will. 
Thanks for posting!
