		<description>Main  errors in the movie 

1. Mission timer inside CM stands still, and displaying number (7) in other way, then it in real could (it was standard eight segment LED display, which cannot show diagonal line).

2. SIVB (Last stage of Saturn 4 rocket) is jettisoned in lunar orbit. This way, Apollo 13 astronauts would be dead on their way. In real world, CM and LM was docked shortly after TLI burn, and not near the end of journey.

3. LM legs are extended during descent to lunar surface - crazy. In real, they were extended BEFORE LEM disconnects from CM. 

4. Armstrong sits in right chair in CM. In Apollo capsule, commander sits on center position (CMP on the left, LMP on the right)

5. All three astronauts wearing their space suits all the way to the moon and back. Crazy, really crazy.</description>
