One of these passenger ferries, the Wahine, was lost in a storm as it entered Wellington Harbour on 10 April 1968, with the loss of 51 passengers and crew.

Launch of Apollo 1 was planned for February 21, 1967, when the crew entered the spacecraft on January 27, mounted atop its Saturn IB booster on Launch Pad 34 at Cape Kennedy, for a " plugs-out " test of the spacecraft, which included a rehearsal of the launch countdown procedure.

More recently, in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation, the crew is sometimes seen playing five-card stud, often an officer's game hosted by Commander William Riker and usually entered by Data ( as part of his efforts to become more human ), Worf, Geordi LaForge, Dr Beverley Crusher, Deanna Troi and occasionally by other crewmembers.

* On 22 January 2002, the crew of Icelandair Flight 315, a Boeing 757-200 registered TF-FIO with 75 passengers on board, unintentionally entered a series of extreme manoeuvres during a go-around from a low altitude following an unstabilised approach into Oslo Airport, Gardermoen.

At 12: 52pm, the Su-27 aircraft – flown by two experienced pilots – entered a rolling maneuver with a downward trajectory at low altitude ; having rolled upright once more the aircraft was still descending rapidly and the left wing dropped shortly before the aircraft hit the ground, at which point the crew initiated ejection.

According to these theories, sea water would have entered the ship's hold, reacting with the cargo to release toxic gases, which then caused the crew to succumb to asphyxia and / or poisoning.

The Portuguese historian João de Barros ( 1496 – 1570 ) wrote that when a violent storm arose as Albuquerque's fleet entered the vast waters between Sri Lanka and Aceh, a ship commanded by Simão Martinho was sunk, but his entire crew was rescued by Fernão and taken aboard his ship.

The docking was not successful and the crew returned to Earth without having entered the station.

Following a six month transition period during which researchers entered the facility through airlock doors and conducted research and system engineering improvements, a second closure with a crew of seven people was conducted March 1994 – September 1994.

When the correct password is entered, the virus shuts down and the crew is given access to the hidden data that the pod brings, revealing why the Earthlings are harvesting their own species.

Of its several compartments, three were pressurized ( 100 m³ total ), and two could be entered by the crew.

The Oxford crew entered a final appeal to the umpire which was quickly rejected and Cambridge were confirmed as official winners by 4 1 / 4 lengths.

Luckily, Captain Jonathan Archer and the crew of the Enterprise were sent back in time by Daniels to before the Na ' kuhl entered the conduit in New York City, and, with the help of Silik ( the leader of the Suliban Cabal ), destroyed the conduit.

The first Britains to discover and enter Port Phillip, were the crew of the Lady Nelson, commanded by John Murray, which entered the bay on 15 February 1802.

On 7 September, after the Soyuz 31 crew had left, the Soyuz 29 crew entered the Soyuz 31 craft and undocked from the Salyut 6 station.

" Eventually it entered a flat spin, and a crash " looked inevitable ", but luck saved the test crew.

Seconds later, a flight attendant entered the cockpit and advised the flight crew of a fire in the passenger cabin.

Musgrave entered the United States Marine Corps in 1953, served as an aviation electrician and instrument technician, and as an aircraft crew chief while completing duty assignments in Korea, Japan and Hawaii, and aboard the carrier USS Wasp in the Far East.

Of the four, only one,, entered into combat in the way that was intended, with full crew and under steam.

Lee of New Jersey and G. Lee of Boston entered the Diamonds, Shoe-wae-cae-mette BC of Monroe, Michigan, a crew of French Canadian watermen, entered the Stewards ’ and Columbia College entered the Stewards ’ and Visitors ’.

A seventh landing mission, the 1970 Apollo 13 flight, failed in transit to the Moon when an oxygen tank explosion disabled the command spacecraft's propulsion and life support, forcing the crew to use the Lunar Module as a " lifeboat " for these functions to return to Earth safely.

After reaching orbit, the crew spent time adapting themselves to the zero-gravity environment and preparing the spacecraft for Trans Lunar Injection, the burn of the third stage rocket that would propel them to the Moon.

Six minutes after the successful burn of the S-IVB, the Command / Service Module, containing the crew, separated from the rocket and traveled for before turning around and retrieving the Lunar Module from inside the expended rocket stage.

Following transposition and docking, the crew noticed the exterior surface of the Lunar Module was giving off particles from a spot where the LM's skin appeared torn or shredded ; at one point, Charlie Duke estimated they were seeing about five to ten particles per second.

Following the LM inspection, the crew reviewed checklists and procedures for the following days in anticipation of their arrival and the Lunar Orbit Insertion burn.

In early planning for the Apollo Program, it had been assumed that two Saturn V launch vehicles would be used for each lunar mission: one for sending the crew aboard a Lunar Surface Module ( LSM ) to lunar orbit, landing, and returning, and a second for sending an LSM-Truck ( LSM-T ) with all of the equipment, supplies, and transport vehicle for use by the crew while on the surface.

The office initially proposed a number of projects for direct scientific study, including an extended-stay lunar mission which required two Saturn V launchers, a " lunar truck " based on the Lunar Module ( LEM ), a large manned solar telescope using an LEM as its crew quarters, and small space stations using a variety of LEM or CSM-based hardware.

EM-2 is 10-14 day mission planned to place a crew of four into Lunar orbit.

The organisation is mission center for several key current missions ( Kepler Mission, the Lunar CRater Observation and Sensing Satellite ( LCROSS ) mission, Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy ( SOFIA )) and a major contributor to the '" new exploration focus '" as a participant in the Orion crew exploration vehicle and Ares I crew launch vehicle projects.

At the time in January 1969, it was not certain this would be the lunar landing crew, depending on the success of Apollo 9 and Apollo 10 testing the Lunar Module.

Initially, Conrad was assigned to command the back-up crew for the first flight of the Saturn V and complete Apollo spacecraft, including the Lunar Module ( LM ) into low Earth orbit, which was initially scheduled as Apollo 8.

His ability as a Command Module Pilot was put to the test when initial attempts to dock with the Lunar Module failed, and the problems were overcome only by Roosa's skill and careful coordination of the crew and ground controllers.

After completing their Lunar Sortie operations, the crew enters the Altair and fires the ascent stage engine to lift off from the surface, using the descent stage as a launchpad ( and as a platform for future base construction ).

But as the Apollo 7 crew practiced rendezvous with the S-IVB / SLA containing a dummy docking target, concerns surfaced about the possibility of collision between the spacecraft and the SLA panels during docking and extraction of the Lunar Module in a lunar mission.

Scientists at UTIAS calculated the amount of pressure needed to separate the Lunar Module from the Command / Service Module without damaging the hatch, allowing the crew to survive the re-entry to Earth.

He was in the likely crew rotation position to serve as Lunar Module Pilot for Apollo 19 before this mission was canceled by NASA in 1970.

Together with spacecraft Commander Schirra and Lunar Module Pilot Cunningham, Eisele participated in maneuvers that enabled the crew to perform exercises in transposition and docking and lunar orbit rendezvous with their Saturn IB launch vehicle.

In December, they were replaced as backups with the crew of a cancelled second mission and were promoted to prime crew of a new second mission flying both the Command / Service Module and the Lunar Module.

After the Apollo 1 fire, plans resumed for McDivitt's crew to fly the Lunar Module mission, which would have been Apollo 8 in December 1968.

A second Saturn V would carry a three-man crew and a modified CSM and Apollo Lunar Module ( LM ) to the Moon.

As the crew began their preparations, they left the Lunar Sphere of Influence at 238 hours, 14 minutes, 51 seconds GET, at which point the gravitational pull of the Earth was stronger than that of the Moon.
