Inspirational 1976 video......

Very interesting video, a lot of details I hadn't seen before, particularly the material properties, even the leg casings are soft/flexible!

I may never get to flying this mission but one thing Orbiter has inspired me to do is save everything... The addons, the Wiki pages, the PDF files, the videos... All of it... What I'm finding, like when I'm researching old missions is stuff isn't there... Especially the NASA pages... Getting dead links, page not found 404, search time out's... Just sayin grab it while it's there... ***

This is very good advice in general. I archive newspaper articles for the same reason. The idea that the Internet is "forever" is a myth.
