Gemini
In-active Human Rated Capsule Crew Capacity: 2 Diameter: 3.0 m Height: 5.61 m()
April 8, 1964
Human transportation to low Earth orbit.
Flight Life
Between a few hours and multiple days (14 day is the maximum achieved).
Description
The spacecraft was 18 feet 5 inches (5.61 m) long and 10 feet (3.0 m) wide, with a launch weight varying from 7,100 to 8,350 pounds (3,220 to 3,790 kg).
History
The Gemini crew capsule (referred to as the Reentry Module) was essentially an enlarged version of the Mercury capsule. Unlike Mercury, the retrorockets, electrical power, propulsion systems, oxygen, and water were located in a detachable Adapter Module behind the Reentry Module. A major design improvement in Gemini was to locate all internal spacecraft systems in modular components, which could be independently tested and replaced when necessary, without removing or disturbing other already tested components.
