Thanks TOL, that’s a good suggestion, I hadn’t taken the time to do it before.

Some video of Gemini 4 training, launch and mission. Looks like Ed white is riding a glorified floor buffer to practice his space walk.

One of the best launch videos ever made. An ultra slow motion video of a Saturn V launch from the platform. Good stuff, whole platform in flames bouncing up and down.

That’s probably what we were really shooting at. The ISS is just a cover story.
