Description
"An Event I'm Sure You Won't Soon Forget"
Apollo 13 Flown Engraved Spoon Directly from the Personal
Collection of Fred Haise, with Signed Letter of Authenticity. A
6.75" long tablespoon that flew on the perilous flight of Apollo
13. Engraved on the handle is a NASA logo and "Fred W. Haise/ LM-7
LMP." It has been adhered to an 8.5" x 3" wooden base with attached
metal plate that states: "To Mother In Remembrance/ Of An Event I'm
Sure You Won't Soon/ Forget- Flown To Moon On Apollo 13/ April
11-17, 1970." Space food during the Apollo program was a key area
of development that combined nutritional science, food technology,
and practical considerations of eating in microgravity. While LMP
Haise did not make his intended lunar landing, he did return safely
and gifted the spoon to his mother to commemorate the flight. Some
adhesive residue from mounting to base, very fine.
