Apollo 7 astronauts Don Eisele, Wally Schirra & Water Cunningham stand by Launch Pad 34 in preparation for their Oct, 1968 spaceflight. The 10 day, 20 hour mission set the stage for Apollo 8’s moon shot 2 months later. A7 saw Schirra become the only astronaut to fly in all 3 of NASA’s major space programs of the ‘60s; Project Mercury, Gemini & Apollo. Backup crew for A7 were Tom Stafford, John Young & Gene Cernan; the trio would go on to pilot Apollo 10. A7 was the first crewed mission since the Jan 1967 Apollo 1 tragedy.

Gemini III final inspection
"Technicians from the McDonnell Aircraft Corporation, which was responsible for producing the Gemini capsule, make final inspections to the Gemini III spacecraft. The photo is taken in the white room, a sterile environment where the spacecraft was prepared for launch, atop the Titan launch vehicle at Pad 19 at the Kennedy Space Center. Gus Grissom and John Young would ride the spacecraft into orbit for the first Gemini mission on a five-hour trip into space on March 23, 1965."
Date: March 23, 1965
