Agreed. Great Gemini images.Ed, as a thought, maybe in the future you can post training images (if they exist) of crew combinations that did not work out, like Shepard and Stafford, Grissom and Borman, Schirra and Young. For Apollo: Borman, Anders and Collins; Armstrong, Aldrin and Lovell; and Young, Duke, and Swigert. |

Good suggestion, although the catch is: "if they exist". |

Those Gemini launch towers rotating down to launch the rocket are one of my first memories of the U.S. manned space program. Thanks Ed. |
