Comments

Very well done presentations. Thanks for your hard work.
Even if Atlas/Agena 9 went into orbit, the Gemini 9 launch may have been scrubbed anyway due to problems closing the command module's hatches!
The first part of this clip appears to be from a short "progress report" that CBS may have broadcast that morning between programs, but without Walter Cronkite's intros/outros.
