Mission Highlights:
Gemini-4
was NASA's 1st Extra Vehicular Activity (EVA) operation. EVA time
36min
All but one primary objectives were achieved. Computer controlled
reentry in the demonstration and evaluation of spacecraft systems
objective was not flown because of inadvertent alteration of computer
memory. All secondary objectives were met except one. The secondary
objective of stationkeeping and rendezvous was only partially
successful because separation and rendezvous was not attempted due to
fuel consumption.
