National Geographic issue is one of the television-based simulators.

I've "thumbed" through the whole article without finding any more
mention of it. Reading it is a strain on the eyes, I don't have the
paper copy, it's the entire NatGeo on CDs.

(it is the November 1970 issue, for those with a well-stocked library
nearby. Article is "Behold the computer revolution", by Peter T.
White.)
