Geocache Description:


Gemini IV was the second manned space flight in NASA's Project Gemini, occurring in June 1965. Astronauts James McDivitt and Edward H. White, II circled the Earth 66 times in four days. The highlight of the mission was the first space walk by an American, during which White floated free outside the spacecraft, tethered to it, for approximately 20 minutes.

The flight also included the first attempt to make a space rendezvous as McDivitt attempted to maneuver his craft close to the Titan II upper stage which launched it into orbit, but this was not successful. The flight was the first American flight to perform many scientific experiments in space, including use of a sextant to investigate the use of celestial navigation for lunar flight in the Apollo program.

My wife and I enjoy walking these nice sidewalks near our neighborhood. This is #5 of the Space Race series. I recommend parking on Veterans Pkwy just north of the Freedom 7 cache.
