  •  Description :  This is a recording of the air to ground communication from Apollo 13 following the rupture of the number 2 oxygen tank. The communication occurs between the Mission control center in building 30 at the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, Texas (later renamed the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center) and Apollo 13 approximately 321,860 km from Earth. Note that the file name is not an accurate quote because what both Swigert and Lovell said was, "...Houston, we've had a problem..."
