Update: My series of questions honoring the 50th anniversary of Apollo 13 is now complete. An index of the questions in the series are as follows:
- Why did NASA collect so much data about electrical phenomena at the Apollo 13 launch site?
When did Jack Swigert realize that he forgot to file his taxes?
Ken Mattingly was also a bachelor, so why did everyone give Jack Swigert a hard time?
Had using the LEM's engines for a lunar abort "never been tried like this?"
Without the accident, would Apollo 13 still have been the farthest crewed mission from the Earth?
Did Apollo 13 "barbecue roll" under the propulsion of the lunar module?
Were more lunar module LiOH cartridges just a spacewalk away?
Who developed the mathematics used to correct the trajectory of Apollo 13?
Why were these Apollo 13 items moved to the lunar module before jettison?
How were the Apollo 13 CM and LM able to undock without the engines of the SM?
- Did Apollo 13 produce any scientific results?
See also apollo-13 for more questions about the mission. I hope you have enjoyed the series and have found the discussion useful.
Original meta question: We are approaching the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 13 mission, also known as "NASA's finest hour". I have a series of questions related to Apollo 13, and was planning on asking 1 or 2 per day during the anniversary dates (April 11 to 17).
Are there any objections to my doing this?
