Apollo 13, what if the SMs tank had exploded after the LM had been onthe surface
Obviously the crew had no way to get home. Would apollo continued to
possibly recover the astronauts bodies? was there any way to even get the bodies home? Were there any plans for such a sad event? Or one where the LM crew gets stranded on the surface? leaving the CM pilot to come home alone? yeah i know its a gruesome topic but do wonder if there were any plans for such outcomes? would the 13 SM defect had been found with a crew stuck in orbit? |

Bluntly, people would have died and no, it's highly unlikely NASA could have or would have done anything. Were there any plans for such a sad event? Or one where the LM crew gets stranded on the surface? leaving the CM pilot to come home alone? Yes there were plans. Including this: http://watergate.info/1969/07/20/an-...on-speech.html But as I know this is been discussed here before, I can only question your sudden morbid interest. yeah i know its a gruesome topic but do wonder if there were any plans for such outcomes? would the 13 SM defect had been found with a crew stuck in orbit? I'm not even sure what this question means. -- Greg D. Moore http://greenmountainsoftware.wordpress.com/ CEO QuiCR: Quick, Crowdsourced Responses. http://www.quicr.net |

Moore * * * * * * * * *http://greenmountainsoftware.wordpress.com/ CEO QuiCR: Quick, Crowdsourced Responses.http://www.quicr.net My question wasnt the already discussed being stuck on the moon, trying everything, saying goodbye and cutting the radio link at the last moment. my question is would / could bodies be recovered either stuck on moon or stuck in moons orbit. would the apollo program have ended? would a CM remain in orbit long enough to get another vehicle to the moon? given the mascons? and even if they did get another CM to the moon could two CMs, one a likely dead hulk be docked together to get the dead crew home some way? logistically it would be hard to get the dead crew back........ could a CM be sent to the moon with just one crew member a pilot to recover the dead crew..... I started wondering about this awhile ago after watching a show about apollo, as far as I remember the long term after such a loss has never been discused. and without the crews photos of the SM could nasa have figured out what went wrong? I am certinally glad none of this bad stuff occured |

Moore The photos 13s astronauts took right before re entry helped discover the cause of the explosion.... would a stranded crew be ordered to undock to look at their SM, given they were going to die, and the in flight camera may not have had the resolution to show what occured. photos obviouslywouldnt get bach unless the crew got back, and in this did other tanks have the same defect? over voltage on underrated components |

Apparently the CMs smelled bad enough after splash down with *live* crew on board. It doesn't bear thinking about. |
