In 1970, NASAs Apollo 13 Mission nearly turned deadly. One womans invention saved lives. Her son became a Hollywood star

Hollywood star Jack Blacks late mother Judith Love Cohen was a heavyweight in her own right.

This was the third attempt to fly to the moon, but it was aborted after the service module oxygen tank got ruptured.
