NASA Gemini IV Capsule Space Craft Model

The Gemini IV Capsule marked a significant milestone in space exploration, representing a pivotal moment in NASA's Gemini program. Launched on June 3, 1965, atop a Titan II rocket, this spacecraft carried astronauts James McDivitt and Edward White on a groundbreaking mission.

The mission's highlight was Edward White's historic spacewalk, becoming the first American to perform extravehicular activity (EVA). White's mesmerizing excursion outside the capsule, tethered by an umbilical cord, lasted approximately 23 minutes and provided invaluable insights into human capabilities in space.

The Gemini IV mission lasted four days, orbiting the Earth 66 times before a safe reentry and splashdown in the Pacific Ocean on June 7, 1965. This historic flight contributed immensely to NASA's understanding of conducting spacewalks and paved the way for future endeavors in space exploration.
