Description
S65-57962 (25 Oct. 1965) --- The Gemini-6 prime crew arrives at Pad 19 during the Gemini-6 countdown. Leading up the ramp is astronaut Walter M. Schirra Jr., command pilot, followed by astronaut Thomas P. Stafford, pilot. Moments later they entered the spacecraft in the white room atop the Titan launch vehicle. Since the Agena, intended as a rendezvous target vehicle in the Gemini-6 mission, failed to achieve orbit, the Oct. 25 launch was scrubbed.
