About
Snippet
Let's
hold
it
down.
The
only
engine
we
got
with
enough
power
for
a
direct
abort
is
the
SPS
on
the
service
module.
From
what
Lovell
has
told
us,
that
could
have
been
damaged
in
an
explosion,
so
let's
consider
that
engine
dead.
We
light
that
thing
up,
it
could
blow
the
whole
works.
It's
just
too
risky.
We're
not
going
to
take
that
chance.
About
the
only
thing
the
command
module
is
good
for
is
reentry,
so
that
leaves
us
with
the
LEM,
which
means
free-return
trajectory.
Once
we
get
the
guys
around
the
moon,
we'll
fire
the
LEM
engine,
make
a
long
burn,
pick
up
some
speed,
and
get
them
home
as
quickly
as
we
can.
The replay is still saving.
