A YouTube for possible use

I suggest "Apollo 13: What Went Wrong" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCObwsXbSeU be included in "Popular culture..." or "External links". It has a lot of highly detailed and well-explained technical detail. FrankSier (talk) 16:53, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

YouTube has much good material on Apollo 13. I've been impressed by the press conferences. Wehwalt (talk) 17:13, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
