NBC Network - NBC Nightly News - "Navstar (GPS)" & Ending (1978)

Here's an interesting segment of an edition of NBC Nightly News, anchored by John Chancellor from New York and Jessica Savitch (filling in on this evening for David Brinkley) from Washington, DC. This clip starts off with John introducing a report from Roy Neal about tests being conducted by the U.S. Air Force in Yuma, AZ, for a satellite navigation system called "Navstar" which was a forerunner to the global positioning satellites (GPS) that are in use today to help get us around to where we want or need to go. Col. Donald Henderson, the Navstar program manager, speaks about its applications and their intent. Two different versions of these tests are shown: in the air, and on a person's backpack. Roy notes that eventually 24 such satellites will be put up in space, and utimately this will be put into use by the airline industry in addition to military applications. After the report ends, John and Jessica say their good nights (just wasn't the same as when Brinkley and Chet Huntley closed each edition of what was known from 1956 to 1970 as The Huntley-Brinkley Report). Commercial: Magic Chef microwave oven, with Barbara Nicklaus (incomplete - tape cuts out midway through this ad) This aired on local Chicago TV in September 1978 (on a Friday), between approximately 5:55 and 5:57pm. About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television: The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,600+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at: http://www.fuzzymemories.tv/index.php...
