Documentary about the Gemini IX mission, entirely based on historical narration, mission audio and footage. The full mission is covered, showing training, launch, Agena rendezvous, EVA, recovery and results. Gemini 9A (Gemini IX-A) was a 1966 crewed spaceflight in NASA's Gemini program. Thomas P. Stafford and Eugene Cernan were the prime crew. The mission was renamed Gemini 9A after the original May 17 launch was scrubbed when the mission's Agena Target Vehicle was destroyed after a launch failure. The mission was flown June 3–6, 1966, after launch of the backup Augmented Target Docking Adaptor (ATDA). Stafford and Cernan rendezvoused with the ATDA, but were unable to dock with it because the nose fairing had failed to eject from the docking target due to a launch preparation error. Cernan performed a two-hour extravehicular activity, during which it was planned for him to demonstrate free flight in a self-contained rocket pack, the USAF Astronaut Maneuvering Unit. He was unable to accomplish this due to stress, fatigue, and overheating _______________________________________________________ CHAPTERS 00:00 Mission Objectives 02:00 Gemini IX Crew 03:43 Training 07:10 Mission Details 09:49 Preflight Press Conference 12:03 1st Launch Attempt 15:29 ATV Liftoff and Failure 18:00 2nd Launch Attempt 19:18 ATDA Liftoff 20:32 3rd Launch Attempt 21:58 Gemini-Titan 9A Launch 23:21 Orbital Maneuvers 24:30 ATDA Rendezvous 26:44 Further Maneuvers and Rendezvous 33:23 Two-hour EVA 41:31 Reentry 44:23 Recovery 50:57 Mission Results ______________________________________________________ The footage was AI upscaled (Topaz AI) on some segments, besides the usual color correction. Ambient audio was recreated based on historical elements. Sequences are shown in proper mission context as much as possible. Historical narration (from mission commentary, NASA documentaries and progress reports, and NBC TV broadcast sourced from LM5 ) is used in an attempt to capture the feeling of the times. Language and attitudes should be seen in that context. Research, cleanup, editing, and processing by Retro Space HD. ======================================== A special thanks to the channel supporters ( ): Andrew Hamburg Andy Ball Asbjørn Bathypterois Bill Hurley Darcy Barrett David Graves Drew Granston Ellie Burack Elpacholag Francis Bernier Francisco Forero Gary Smith Gio Pagliari Glenn W.
