NASA Project Gemini activities and overview of Gemini program and participants at Kennedy Space Center, Florida
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Gemini program activities to prepare for the Apollo moon mission. Footage spanning multiple years in 1960s. Multiple views of the Saturn V launch vehicle (rocket) on launch platform and as it is moved into position at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Helicopter lifting off beside Saturn V with rocket and launch tower in background. Spotlights at night shined onto a Gemini Titan II rocket. Narrator explains purpose of Gemini as precursor to Apollo program. A specially configured USAF C-135 (Boeing 707) aircraft taking off and views inside, as it performs parabolic sweep maneuvers to give astronauts some experience with "weightlessness"and the operation of equipment in such conditions. View of a swimming pool with Gemini astronauts practicing neutral buoyancy with their vehicle and equipment in semi-weightless conditions. Views of Gemini astronauts training in a simulator and undergoing special parachute training. Astronaut survival training including exits from capsule at sea, desert, and jungle training. Gemini astronauts boarding capsule for an orbital mission from Launch Pad 19 at the Kennedy Space Center. Narrator names all the Gemini astronauts: Grissom, Young, McDivitt, White, Cooper, Conrad, Borman, Lovell, Schirra, Stafford, Armstrong, Scott, Cernan, Collins, Gordon, Aldrin. View of NASA Gemini astronauts entering capsule, being seated, secured, and door closed and secured before launch.
Gemini XI launch and technicians in the control room at Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral, Florida
Launch of NASA Gemini XI from Pad 19 at the Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral, Florida. Technicians inside the Mission Control room for launch of Gemini XI. Close-ups of faces and expressions of Mission Control staff during countdown. Engines of the Launch Vehicle: Titan II GLV GT-11 / 62-12566.as ignition starts. The Gemini 11 rocket (Titan II launch vehicle) lifts off. Birds in the vicinity fly off. Citizens, dignitaries and various people in reviewing stand watch launch through binoculars and take pictures as the spacecraft lifts into the air.
NASA Gemini spacecraft practicing docking and maneuvering with Agena vehicle.
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.
Views of Planet Earth taken from NASA Gemini spacecraft
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 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.
