Apollo 13 successful return, news headlines, London. Footage of news headlines announcing the successful return of the Apollo 13 mission ('They've Made It!'). The headlines are scrolling on electronic display boards in Piccadilly Circus in Central London, UK, part of the worldwide news coverage of the dramatic events during this mission. On 13 April 1970, two days into this lunar mission, an oxygen tank exploded and damaged the spacecraft. The crew of three survived in one of the modules for four days as the spacecraft passed behind the Moon and back towards Earth. The rescue plan devised by mission control worked, and the crew splashed down in the early morning local time in the Pacific Ocean on 17 April 1970 at 18:07 UTC (19:07 BST in London). This footage was filmed on 17 April 1970, after the news of the successful splashdown had been transmitted around the world. | |
