The spaceflight revolution captivated many in the news media; including then CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite.

During a 1968 visit to Langley, the adventurous Cronkite tried out the Reduced Gravity Walking Simulator - a series of cable-supported slings hanging from the Lunar Landing Research Facility designed to approximate lunar locomotion.

At this ingenious facility, astronauts practiced what it would be like to walk on the moon.
