Held in Thrall. The flight of Apollo 10 was an elaborate preparation for a manned landing on the moon, now scheduled for July 20, but it was also vastly more than that. This close approach to a planet's familiar satellite was, in a more remote sense, a step toward the planets themselves. Through the first color telecast from space and massive coverage by TV, radio and the press, a worldwide audience vicariously shared the astronauts' excitement and exuberance, the tension and terror, the close-up views of the stark and rugged moonscape.
