He has marked an "X" where the explosion occurred along the flight path and added: "Boom! April 13, 1970, 10:08 pm EST, Freddo" with the number 13 underlined to emphasize the coincidental numbering of the flight and date. Additionally SIGNED and INSCRIBED: "JAMES LOVELL, Apollo 13 CDR."

The complex steps of a lunar mission are illustrated from a north polar view. Earth launch, lunar and earth coast phases, lunar orbit insertion, lunar landing - liftoff, the transearth injection, and earth return are all dimensionally illustrated.
