Gemini program aims for space rendezvous and EVA objectives
White will exit the craft on a 2 foot tether and use a spacegun to approach within 20 feet of the booster. The mission targets three Gemini prime objectives: long duration flight, rendezvous, and extra vehicular activity. The first rendezvous attempt and White’s space walk occur near the end of the second orbit, with an outside stay of about 12 minutes to ensure astronauts remain physically fit.
