Gemini 6 Mission Set For October 25 From Houston
Gemini 6 with Walter M. Schirra and Thomas P. Stafford will attempt a rendezvous with another satellite on October 25 as space agency officials push ahead with two more Gemini flights this year despite Gemini 5 issues. Gemini 7 is planned for December, while future flights aim to perfect docking for Apollo moon missions and test manned orbital capabilities ahead of 1969 lunar landings.
