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 which would burn up on reentry.

2024年1月4日 · Project Gemini Technical Diagrams. This series of diagrams should be especially interesting and useful for modelers and other space enthusiasts who want to see "blueprints" of the Project Gemini spacecraft. Special thanks to Kipp Teague and Chris Gamble, who have scanned the images.

The Gemini spacecraft was designed for guided reentries from orbit to permit spacecraft landing at pre-selected, prepared sites. This capability was provided through the use of the inertial guidance system to develop steering commands for proper orientation of the aerodynamic lift vector arising from an offset center of gravity position.

The Gemini re-entry capsule, smaller and lighter than that of Apollo, would allow direct launch of a mission to the moon using a single rocket. Alternatively, rendezvous and docking of components launched by two small rockets (Titan 3C's or Saturn IB's) would eliminate the need for development of the Saturn V.

2017年10月29日 · The Gemini B was the military version of the Gemini spacecraft, adapted for use on the MOL (Manned Orbiting Laboratory) program. The general cockpit layout was similar, but many instruments were changed.

2023年1月14日 · The prototype Gemini-B, which was launched on a suborbital trajectory, was the refurbished Gemini-2 capsule, making it the first reused spacecraft. It was launched with the MOL-Heatshield Qualification Test on a Titan-3C launch vehicle.
