Gemini Men Extend Space Walk Record to 7 Hours 52 Minutes
Gordon set a record with a seven hour fifty two minute space walk while Conrad remained tethered. The pair tested a satellite tether concept to fly in formation with an Agena, exploring fuel free maneuvering for future rescue or repair missions. The test showed the line would jerk under tension and momentum, complicating stable flight. Gordon later described the Earth as beautiful, while Conrad handled a star sighting with a smudged window.
