Lady Elaine Prepares to Fly to Jupiter

Mister Rogers arrives with a collection of maps that will be shared later by Astronaut Al Worden. Mr. Worden arrives with more to share. Among other items used on his space flight, Mr. Worden shows a variety of space food and explains that the food is prepared by adding water. They add hot water to one package of food to make a helping of spaghetti and cold water to another for a serving of orange drink. After they enjoy the space food, Mr. Worden uses the maps to talk about the back side of the moon that is never seen from Earth. Mr. McFeely arrives to take Mr. Worden to the airport.

In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, King Friday presents a gift to Astronaut Worden — a model of the solar system. At the furthest point on the model is a small image of King Friday to represent the Neighborhood of Make-Believe — an invitation to Astronaut Worden to return often. Everyone gathered at the castle expresses their admiration for Astronaut Worden by singing I’m Proud of You. Lady Elaine Fairchilde arrives with a flag that reads F.F.J. — Flying For Jupiter. She explains that the astronauts can “take care of that little moon business” while she plans to fly to Jupiter.

Back at the house, Mister Rogers shows a picture of George Allen who once taught him to fly a small airplane. He shows a film of Mr. Allen teaching others to fly a similar plane.
