On April 13, 1970, the Apollo 13 space capsule experienced an explosion while traveling more than 200,000 miles away from Earth. The explosion damaged several onboard systems, including the life support and power systems. Engineers on the ground, as well as the astronauts in space, were forced to rapidly develop some engineering solutions using only the items that were available on board the capsule. In retrospect, which characteristic of effective team members was most important in bringing the astronauts home safely? Relevant experience Competition Skilled problem-solving Strategic thinking
