Probers Seek Cause For Agena Failure
CAPE KENNEDY Fla AP An investigation board probes the multimillion dollar failure of Gemini S Atlas Agena target rocket. Launch crews push ahead hoping to launch astronauts Stafford and Cernan in two or three weeks. The outcome determines Gemini dates and future Atlas boosted space launches. NASA officials vow quick rescheduling to complete data for Apollo moon project. The failure came when one Atlas engine swiveled and caused the vehicle to plunge into the Atlantic about 180 miles southeast of Cape Kennedy near Grand Bahama Island. The flight safety board will review the failure and examine all Atlas rockets scheduled to fly to avoid recurrence.
