WI: Oswald misses the third shot, kills Jackie instead

How would the rest of the 60's play out with a failed assassination attempt on the President that claims the life of the First Lady?

Apollo missions to the Moon would launch from the Jacqueline B. Kennedy space center. Seriously, this is Stephen Baxter Voyage very POD: (wo)man on Mars by 1986 !
 
Which shot was it that hit the Governor? And if he misses JFK with a scope, I imagine he keeps shooting until he gets him or thinks the heat it too high. Guess they would speed away quickly after the first few shots, though.

The 2nd shot was the one that passed through JFK and hit governor Connally. I agree if the 3rd bullet doesn't hit JFK then Oswald will likely fire a 4th shot. I don't think there would be time for any further shots after that though.
 
So we lose both JFK and Jackie? since was not the 2nd shot fatal in itself ? He does not lose his brains but still. at the very least LBJ is president for at least a month or so.

If JFK is healthy to stay president he would win 64 in a landslide. He might get remarried at some point but I feel he dies naturally by the late 1970's early 80's being he was not all that healthy to start with.
