This news segment for Houston’s KPRC-TV captures Luci Baines Johnson Nugent visiting the newly opened AstroWorld amusement park on July 10, 1968. The First Daughter was joined by her husband, Patrick; their young son, Patrick Lyndon; and a handful of Secret Service agents. The footage appears silent and would have been voiced over by the anchorperson during a live broadcast. AstroWorld opened on June 1, 1968, as part of the Astrodomain, a development complex owned by former Houston Mayor Roy Hofheinz. Six Flags bought the park in 1975, operating it until its closure in 2005.
