The teacher wheeled a big old B&W TV into my 3rd grade classroom so we could see the reentry and splashdown of Apollo 13.
Damn, the cheering when we saw the parachutes.
I know the stakes and risks a lot more now. Nerve wracking.

Cameras and chase plans more advanced now then in the early 70s.
So we get to see the capsule free-falling, waiting for the parachutes to deploy.
That was nerve-wracking.
