On its mission to the Moon, Apollo 13 encountered a near-fatal situation. The crew (in the space ship) first let the ground-control team (in Houston) know about the problem when they radioed this message.
The time was 21:08 on the 13th of April, 1970. The three crew members were 200,000 miles away from Earth.
