Which of the sentences below most correctly and effectively incorporates this source material? (Either APA or MLA style citations are acceptable.)
A)In their 1994 book, Apollo 13, astronaut Jim Lovell and his co-writer Jeffery Kluger write on page 103: “Houston, we’ve had a problem,” Lovell repeated. “We’ve had a main B bus undervolt.”
B)Apollo 13 (1994) describes Lovell’s famous call to Mission Control: “Houston,” he said calmly, “we’ve had a problem” (p. 103). He went on to add, “We’ve had a main B bus undervolt” (p. 103).
C)After the explosion, Lovell (1994) radioed Mission Control to say “Houston, we’ve had a problem.” What a cool response to disaster! (103)
D)Apollo 13 reveals that Lovell’s famously calm radio call to Mission Control, “Houston, we’ve had a problem” (103), is often misquoted, but that doesn’t diminish his cool response to disaster.
