Could two spaceships maneuver precisely enough to rendezvous in outer space and then dock together?
Could American spacemen move and work in the extreme conditions of outer space, away from the protection of a spacecraft?
Project Gemini was planned to answer these questions—questions which had to be answered if Americans were ever to go to the moon.
Continuing the story he began in Americans into Orbit: The Story of Project Mercury, Gene Gurney now tells about the courageous Gemini astronauts and their exciting missions.
