A farmer operates a a horse drawn dump rake to gather forage for animals. Beef cattle being herded by cowboys. Farmers harvesting and processing wheat in the field. A yard filled with pigs.
Cars fill the large, open surface parking lot at the Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto, California, a new suburban shopping mall. People in front of the I. Magnin store at the shopping mall. Family in a convertible car arrives and stops in front of the mall. A man with two children looks at department store window where a mannequin displays clothes. Women in front of a suburban shopping center. Shoes and purses displayed in a shop window. Shop signs for smaller stores in an outdoor pedestrian mall layout. A woman sits on a bench at the mall. Another woman walks up to her. People walk in front of stores at the postwar, modern suburban shopping mall. Store signs seen in the clip include I. Magnin, Blum's, Haffner's Clothes, The Emporium, Donnelley’s Hardware Store, Fowler's Barber Shop, Irving Lundborg Company, Joseph Magnin (JM).
Dramatic view from NASA spacecraft looking backwards during launch. Hot glow from booster rocket, which is then seen separating from the launch vehicle, and view of the Earth as a blue sphere becomes visible. View of earth from orbiting spacecraft. Glimpse of NASA Astronauts, Frank Borman, and James Lovell, in Gemini VII. view of desert terrain on earth, below. views of sunsets from space. another glimpse of Frank Borman in spacecraft.
A NASA backup Agena unmanned target vehicle, launched as a docking target for Gemini 9, is orbiting with a shroud still attached. Astronauts call it "the angry alligator." Brief closeup of the vehicle. Views from Gemini IX as it practices maneuvering close to the "angry alligator." Change of sequence shows another Agena target vehicle in orbit above an ocean on earth. A Gemini spacecraft docks to form a compound craft with the Agena, and its astronauts then command the Agena to start its rocket engine. Glow is seen from the rocket engine firing. Beautiful views of the Blue Planet, Earth, from a combined Gemini and Agena vehicle in orbit at 850 miles distance.
Glimpse of astronaut in NASA Gemini spacecraft during orbit. Dramatic views of the Earth from outer space orbit. Eclipse of the sun photographed from Gemini XII. Two Gemini spacecraft (probably Gemini VI and VII) orbiting earth, in formation, close to one another.
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.
