Project Gemini
Project Gemini was the second human spaceflight program by the American agency NASA.[1] It started after Project Mercury, and was used to prepare for the Moon Landings during the Apollo program. It happened between 1964 and 1966. It achieved several notable achievements, including the first time two spacecraft met up in space,[2] and the first linking of two separate spacecraft[3] in space. It also carried out the first American space walk.[4]
It used two rockets to launch things into space, those being the Atlas Agena rocket and the Titan II rocket.
