No Rescue Vehicle Could Save Marooned Astronauts

SPACE CENTER Houston AP Death awaits the Apollo astronauts if they become marooned on the moon for there is no rescue vehicle. Even if another spacecraft were on the Cape Kennedy launch pad it would take four days to reach the moon. Armstrong and Aldrin land with 43 hours of oxygen. If the LM tilts more than 35 degrees they cannot fire their ascent engine to rejoin the command ship. The LM weighs 16 000 pounds and is too heavy to shove. The command ship cannot pick them up and blast off again due to lacking engines and guidance. Even in orbit another craft could not rescue them. The LM holds two men only. Kraft notes redundancy and reliability as Apollo safety pillars.
