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.
