Commander's Day 8, Meal C (Food) Mission: Apollo 13 CM: Odyssey LM: Aquarius   Crew: James A. Lovell Fred W. Haise, Jr. John L. Swigert, Jr. Launch: April 11, 1970   Landing: April 17, 1970   Duration: 5 Days, 22 hours   Comment: "Houston, we've had a problem here." This package, which contains the complete meal "C" for mission commander James Lovell (indicated by the red Velcro tag on each portion) was originally intended for the eighth day of the flight. As the mission was curtailed early, this meal was returned to Earth uneaten. The package is sealed but appears to include cocoa mix, bread and meat cubes, and butterscotch pudding, which is consistent with menus published prior to launch. back to Artifacts © 1999-2008 collectSPACE.com All rights reserved.
