Acting NASA Administrator Reflects on Legacy of Astronaut Jim Lovell - NASA
The following is a statement from acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy on the passing of famed Apollo astronaut Jim Lovell. He passed away Aug. 7, in Lakewww.nasa.gov
I was a bit older and fully understood the gravity of the situation and had many doubts that they would make it back alive. It was a tremendous relief when they splashed down safely. I still had a fresh memory of Grissom, White and Chaffee.I'm old enough to remember Apollo 13 as it happened in real time.
Part of my faith was being a child of 11 and not having the remotest understanding of the gravity of the situation. Part of it was the infallible reputation NASA had at the time (Yeah, I know....times have changed. But that's the way it was in 1970).
Regardless, I never doubted for one second that they would get back OK.
