13 Minutes to the Moon

CHAPTER

Introduction

John Aaron was one of the E-coms responsible for monitoring the command modules, electrical power and life support systems. He helped stretch out what remained of Odyssey's mega power reserves to get the crew through the final couple of hours to splash down. It could be said that John was probably the best flight controller that we ever had. Have a listen to fellow E- coms, Summer Leibagot, and Apollo Flight Director, Jerry Griffin.
