or the Saturn 5 rocket.
:08:05
This is the actual launch vehicle
that will be taking Alan Shepard...

:08:08
and his crew on the first leg
of the Apollo 13 mission.

:08:12
When are you
going up again, Jim?

:08:15
I'm slated to be the commander
of Apollo 14 sometime late next year.

:08:20
If there is an Apollo 14.
:08:22
Jim, people in my state have been
asking why we're continuing...

:08:28
to fund this program now that we've
beaten the Russians to the moon.

:08:31
Imagine if Christopher Columbus
had come back from the new world...

:08:35
and no one returned
in his footsteps.

:08:37
Attention, all personnel.
Clear level three.

:08:41
Are there any other questions?
:08:44
How do you go
to the bathroom in space?

:08:46
Well, I tell you,
it's a highly technical process...

:08:49
of cranking down the window and
looking for a gas station, which, uh'-'-

:08:53
Oh, there's Deke Slayton.
:08:56
Deke, you might be able
to answer this lady's question.

:08:59
Deke is one of the original Mercury
seven astronauts, ladies and gentlemen.

:09:03
Now he's our boss. He hands out
the astronauts' flight assignments...

:09:06
so naturally we kick back
part of our salaries to Deke.

:09:09
'- How much this month?
'- Can I have a minute?
Something's come up.

:09:13
Sure, you b'-'- Uh, Henry?
:09:16
Hey!
:09:21
'- Anybody home?
'- I'm not being a cheerleader, Mom!

:09:25
You don't understand!
I worked so hard on this!

:09:27
Maybe I don't understand...
:09:29
but you are not wearing that
out in this neighborhood.

:09:32
She's not even wearing a bra!
You can see everything!

:09:34
Shut up!
:09:36
'- Everybody. Marilyn, trick or treat.
'- Jim.

:09:38
You know that Easter vacation trip
we had planned for Acapulco?

:09:42
Uh'-oh.
:09:43
I was thinkin' there might be
a slight change in destination.

:09:46
Really?
:09:49
Maybe, say... the moon.
:09:54
AI Shepard's ear infection
has flared up...

:09:57
and we've all been bumped up
to the prime crew of Apollo 13.
