December 1, 1995 - Legendary Apollo 13 Astronaut Jim Lovell at DePauw University (Montage)

"Why am I here today?," asked former astronaut and retired business executive James A. Lovell Jr. during a Timothy and Sharon Ubben Lecture at DePauw University. "Because of teamwork both with the crew and the people on the ground," added Lovell, who has received a good deal of attention since Tom Hanks portrayed him in the hit movie Apollo 13. He called the Apollo 13 mission "a great study in crisis management."

Lovell discussed "Apollo 13: A Successful Failure" in an 11 a.m. address in the Performing Arts Center, Kresge Auditorium.
