Astronaut James Lovell is a true spaceflight veteran. James "Jim" Arthur Lovell, Jr., (born March 25, 1928) is a former NASA astronaut and a former captain in the United States Navy, most famous as the commander of the
Apollo 13 mission, which suffered an explosion en route to the Moon but was brought back safely to Earth by the efforts of the crew and mission control. Lovell was also the command module pilot of Apollo 8, the first Apollo mission to enter lunar orbit. Lovell is a recipient of the Congressional Space Medal of Honor and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

He is one of only 24 people to have flown to the Moon, and the only person to have flown to the Moon twice without making a landing. Lovell was also the first American to fly in space four times.

His missions included;
Gemini 7, Gemini 12, Apollo 8 and Apollo 13.
