Subject: It was a failure.. But a SUCCESSFUL failure!
A VERY techie overview of just what the heck NASA was doing in 1965, in case you were suspicious. My guess is that this was made for government purposes, as the technical speak and the endless overview of satellite after satellite would bore the 1960's housewife very quickly. Although it gets tireing very quickly, it's fascincating to see how.. BUSY NASA was during that time. Nice animation too. The whole thing just reminds me of the (long gone) Disneyland ride called 'Mission To Mars'
