same! moon landing, all of it

A couple seconds after this ended you would see the snow and hear the white noise when the station went off the air.

Lol i remember that view so long ago

No matter the time I watch this it feels like two am.

i was always a night owl as a kid on.. and weekends would stay up late watching movies till the stations signed off with these little bits, sleep a few hours, then up early for Davy & Goliath 😁

HOLY COW!!!! You did not just say, "Davey and Goliath"?? I had a paper route as a kid. My Sunday mornings were spent, making two separate trips, (Sunday's were full of comics and coupons) and coming back home, and watching "Davey and Goliath" , "The Little Rascals", "Popeye and His Friends (including Super Chicken, Tom Slick, and George of the Jungle), and finally, "The Sunday Film Festival, starring Tom Hatten"!!!! GOOD TIMES!!

T-38. The feeling of every pilot!

I truly remember seeing this as the TV signed off.

I miss this 😇😢😇😭😇

I remember the Buffalo stations would play the Canadian National Anthem followed by the American. Kinda nice!

That was a classy gesture.

Gene Simmons beautiful story of him and his mother coming to America and seeing this TV sign-off, brought me here.

I remember seeing this when watching WPTT-22 Pittsburgh sign off in 1978-79.

I remember it very well. My dad was an Air Force pilot. It reminds me of him. Amazing imagery.

Remember it like it was yesterday. Always loved seeing that T-38.

I would watch this every night. Thanks for posting!

And let us not forget the NBC sign off, with the peacock ;) Those where pretty good days.

Beautiful plane👍

Beautiful!

Just a better time

I remember listening to this late at night at the end of local channel broadcasting before cable, streaming, etc. came out, depending on which channel. Sometimes they would play "You'll Never Walk Alone" by The Lettermen or just play the National Anthem

Brings back memories.

I remember seeing that like it was yesterday…

That's old..I remember it.

i WAS a pilot since 17 years old, but could not fly when college times. So i dreamed of going up again, on my bed, after seen this. In Puerto Rico.

The memories this brings back... 🥹 "Put out my hand; and, touched the face...of God."

I always liked the version with the F-104 Starfighter.

The 1960s version featured a Starfigther and the 1980s version featured an F-15 with the poem being read by William Conrad.

Growing up hearing this as tv sign of brings back my childhood

This makes me tear up

I did that! What a nice airplane to fly!

That's because of airmen like me who kept those J-85s in good running order. Live long my brother in arms.❤

I remember President Ronald Reagan using this phrase after the Space Shuttle Challenger tragedy.

POLARIZATION is the key here, and taking full advantage of it is the route to victory. Everything your enemy does is WRONG. What would you think of a TV commercial that praised a competitor's product, do you think that would be a good idea or should those admen be fired? This is the same situation. I have nothing against the monogamous, but upholding their way of life as the exemplar is a clear example of the sort of cultural hegemony we're supposed to be against. It's okay to have feelings for anyone, that's a natural part of the human experience. But you had better make darned sure your primary partner is down with that before you start crossing those kinds of lines. Don't just spring it on them, communication and cooperation are essential for any good relationship.

There is a more recent version with William Conrad. Don't know who does the voiceover here.

Imagine EAS creators using this video instead when the planet is about to explode or the country is being torn off the map.

There was a song version.

This is a much older version of that one fighter jet sign off from the 90s

Is this the original one? I remember it it but it seemed different to me, maybe they had more than one version? Anyway it brings me way back. 👍

And touched the face of GOD... of GOD. Not Trump or Biden, not Democrat or Republican, but GOD. And he's the only one who can help America now. GOD BLESS AMERICA
