"Apollo 13" was the third crewed mission planned to land on the Moon as a part of NASA's Apollo program. However, it is most famously known for the critical situation that occurred during the mission. Here's a description:

"Apollo 13" was a spaceflight launched on April 11, 1970, from Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA. The mission was intended to be the third lunar landing mission, with a planned landing in the Fra Mauro highlands. The crew consisted of three astronauts: James A. Lovell Jr. (Command Module Pilot), John L. Swigert Jr. (Command Module Pilot, originally backup for the mission), and Fred W. Haise Jr. (Lunar Module Pilot).
