They don't get to the moon, but get return to earth safely. The guy who had to stay behind didn't have the measles as suspected. However, had he gone with them on the mission it is unlikely they would have survived, as he worked in the simulators to figure out a way to save them.
Factual error: When Lovell's daughter is complaining that the Beatles have broken up, she slams the album Let It Be into her rack. The scene takes place on the day of the initial explosion aboard Apollo 13, April 13 1970 - immediately prior to the Lovell family attending the screening of a television broadcast from the spacecraft. Let It Be was not released as an album until May 9th, 1970. In April Ringo was still recording drum tracks, not even possible for an advance copy to get out.
Question: Did the interior of the Apollo 13 spacecraft really become cold, and frosty as shown in the movie?
Answer:From what I have read, according to the real astronauts, it was not as cold in the capsule as was depicted in the film. The movie exaggerated that for dramatic effect.
