00:00 Colin: Ok, so things start going wrong and the crew reacts.
00:03 There's that famous quote, right?
00:05 "Houston we've had a problem here."
00:07 Elaina: Slight understatement.
00:08 Donovan: I get that they're reacting well
00:10 but is that enough to call this a success?
00:11 Elaina: You're being kind of hard on them, don't you think?
00:13 Donovan: I just...I'm not convinced yet.
00:15 They did a good job-fine
00:17 but let's save the word success for when you actually accomplish the mission.
00:20 Jalyn: But maybe the mission is changing.
00:22 Donovan: What do you mean?
00:23 Jalyn: Now that things have gone wrong, they have a new mission.
00:25 Colin: Well, if that's true then I think
00:26 the team is handling the new mission really well.
00:29 Here it says, "The first thing the crew did,
00:31 even before discovering the oxygen leak,
00:33 was to try to close the hatch between the CM and the LM.
00:36 They reacted spontaneously, like submarine crews,
00:39 closing the hatches to limit the amount of flooding."
00:41 Elaina: I like that they reacted "spontaneously."
00:43 It's like after all that training
00:44 they were able to be in control when most humans would
00:47 Jalyn: -Shut down? Flip out? Cry?
00:50 Colin: I agree.
00:50 I think these guys are a success.
00:52 Donovan: The way they handled the crisis was successful
00:54 but Apollo 13 did fail in its mission.
00:57 Jalyn: Yeah, which is why the word 'failure' is in there: "successful failure."
