This video uses data gathered from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft to recreate some of the stunning views of the moon that the Apollo 13 astronauts saw on their perilous journey around the far side in 1970. These [URL=https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13537]visualizations, in 4K resolution[/URL], depict many different views of the lunar surface, starting with earthset and sunrise and concluding with the time Apollo 13 reestablished radio contact with Mission Control. Also depicted is the path of the free return trajectory around the moon, and a continuous view of the moon throughout that path. All views have been sped up for timing purposes — they are not shown in "real-time."
