The Twilight Zone: In His Image
The 103rd episode of Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone airs on CBS. George Grizzard and Gail Kobe star in the fourth season premiere. Though technically cancelled at the end of its third season, CBS offers Rod Serling the chance to revive the series at midseason to replace – ironically – the hour-long series that took its place on the schedule. This necessitates a brief experiment, for the remainder of the shortened fourth season, in making The Twilight Zone an hour-long show over Serling’s protest.
This series is not yet fully chronicled in the LogBook. You could help change that.

Relay 1
NASA launches the experimental, RCA-built Relay 1 communications satellite. This is the first satellite to relay television signals from the United States to Japan, including the first word of the assassination of President Kennedy in 1963. In 1964, it’s part of the link bringing television coverage of the 1964 Summer Olympics from Tokyo to the U.S., participating in the first multi-satellite broadcast with Syncom 3. This technological first doesn’t come without some problems, however, and Relay 1 ceases to be operational in early 1965, but remains in orbit for decades.
