When NASA's Apollo 13 mission took off, its goal was to land on the moon. However, before it reached the moon, an onboard oxygen tank exploded, damaging the spacecraft and reducing its power. The astronauts faced a life-threatening situation. NASA quickly developed an emergency plan. The three astronauts climbed into the lunar landing module onboard the spacecraft. Though initially intended to keep two men alive while landing on the moon, the lunar module would now help all three return home. The astronauts rerouted their ship to slingshot around the moon, using the moon's gravity to propel them back to Earth. They survived to land safely back in the ocean.Which organisational structure does this text primarily use?

Solution
The text primarily uses a chronological or sequential organizational structure. It starts by setting the scene with the launch of Apollo 13 and its initial goal. Then, it moves through the events as they occurred in time order: the explosion of the oxygen tank, the damage to the spacecraft, the development of an emergency plan, the astronauts moving to the lunar module, the rerouting of the ship, and finally their safe return to Earth.

The primary objective of Apollo 11 was to complete a national goal set by US President John F Kennedy to land astronauts on the moon and return them safely to earth by the end of the 1960s. Apollo 11 launched from Cape Kennedy on 16th July 1969 carrying three astronauts: Neil Armstrong, Mike Collins and Buzz Aldrin.Four days later Apollo 11’s Lunar Module, which was named ‘Eagle’ by the crew, landed on the surface of the moon in a region called the Sea of Tranquility. Four hours after landing, Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the moon. This first lunar mission lasted a little under 24 hours before the crew began their hazardous return journey back to earth. Apollo 11 eventually splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on 24th July 1969 having accomplished its historic mission.The first moon landing took place on 20th July 1969 following a four day journey to the moonTrueFalse
