Gemini V launched #OTD 1965. So what a day to get up close to the very Titan that launched it (ocean recovered), stand in the Gemini white room (!!) & visit LC-19 where it launched from. A HUGE thank you to James W. Draper for making this all happen. A day I will never forget.
Gemini 5 launched 59 years ago today! It launched from historic Launch Complex 19 - ccspacemuseum.org/facilities/lau…. #museums #history #space #artifacts #orlando #centralflorida #Florida #astronaut #nasa #ussf #usaf #spaceforce #FollowRupert #lovefl Cape Canaveral Space Force Museum
