Views of Planet Earth taken from earth orbit. NASA Gemini spacecraft maneuvering and Astronauts working outside them.

Views from NASA Gemini spacecraft maneuvering close to Agena vehicle in space. A dacron tether attaching a Gemini craft to the Agena space vehicle. The tether held taut by the differential gravitational pull on the two space vehicles (Agena being closer to earth). Astronaut Ed White, performing the first extra vehicular activity (space walk) during the Gemini IV mission in June 1965. His overglove is seen floating past him. He performs work in space using special tools. Views of other astronauts having difficulties during subsequent space walks. Astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, pilot of Gemini XII, performs a series of tasks during a space walk test, proving the value of rest breaks, tethers, and handholds to facilitate such work in the weightlessness of space. He removes a hatch, that flies away. He tightens bolts.

German rocket physicist Wernher Von Braun lectures at press conference about space launch vehicles

German rocket physicist Wernher Von Braun gives recorded and broadcast lecture about Space Launch vehicles. He sits at a table containing models, including one of the Juno II space launch vehicle. Speaking in German, he addresses an audience, discussing capabilities of the Juno 2 vehicle and requirements for achieving escape velocity and other facets of space flight. He refers to the Explorer I satellite in his remarks. After Dr. Braun completes his comments, he stands and leaves, revealing a chart illustrating the ideas of his talk. Also seen is a blackboard listing velocities that have already been achieved by rockets and noting the escape velocity needed to achieve earth orbit. These blackboard notes are all written in English. German scientist, Albert Zeiler, is seen momentarily at a seat in front of the blackboard.

Early 1900s American aviation scenes; American flight pioneers speak about their associations with the Wright Brothers

Aviation pioneer, aircraft designer and builder, Glenn L. Martin, at his desk, stands behind a model of the Martin M-130 Clipper flying boat. He reads a 1910 postcard from the family doctor to his mother, warning that her son (Glenn) will kill himself if he persists in his aviation endeavors. Next, one of Martin's earliest employees and collaborators, Donald Douglas, Sr. is seen with his dog. He says his first memory of things in aviation, was seeing the first Wright airplane demonstrated for the Signal Corps in 1908, at Fort Myer. Period film shows the Wright Flyer airplane with twin rear propellers turning. Next view shows Orville Wright along with military officers and officials, standing near the launching tower (from which a propelling weight would drop). Orville Wright is seen climbing aboard the airplane, after the first flight demonstration, as Lieutenant Lahm joins him to be the first military officer to ever fly in an airplane. Next, the weight is seen falling from the launching tower, propelling the airplane along a single track to take off. It is seen flying above spectators at the Fort Myer drill field. View of a U.S. Army balloon in flight overhead. Scene shifts to pioneer Army balloonist, Roy Knabenshue, who was hired by the Wright Company in 1910. He holds a photograph of a balloon, and identifies Walter Brookins, in the photograph. (Brookins was taught to fly by the Wright brothers and became the first instructor for their Exhibition Team.) Knabenshue extols the skills of Brookins as a Wright Company pilot, along with Arch Hoxsey and Ralph Johnson. While Khabenshue is speaking, views of a Wright Flyer in the air at Fort Myer are seen.
