Intrepid Summer Movie Series: Apollo 13

Join the Intrepid Museum for its seventh annual Summer Movie Series. Enjoy FREE feature films on the flight deck, under the stars!

Introduced by Jeffrey Kluger, co-author of the book Apollo 13.

Jeffrey Kluger is editor-at-large of Time magazine and Time.com and the author of nine books. His first book, co-authored with former astronaut Jim Lovell, was Apollo 13, which served as the basis of the 1995 movie. Kluger admits that when he was a boy, Lovell was his favorite astronaut—a fact that compelled him to approach Lovell in 1992 about working on a book together. Early responses to the book were not encouraging. They were told, “Nobody wants to read about three guys who didn’t land on the moon 22 years ago.” As it turned out, many people did.


Bring your lawn chairs, picnic baskets and blankets. Guests are encouraged to bring their own food, snacks and non-alcoholic beverages.

REMINDER: Doors open at 7:30pm, and the program begins at sunset, weather permitting. Space is limited. Admission tickets (free of charge) will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis before the screening. One ticket per person. You must be in line to receive a ticket. All new arrivals must join the back of the line. Tickets will be distributed starting at 6:15pm, and ticket holders will be queued within the Museum complex. Be sure all members of your party are in line by 6:15pm.
