Revell 3705 60th Anniversary Edition Gemini Space Capsule

Revell 3705 60th Anniversary Edition Gemini Space Capsule Model: Project Gemini was the middle stage of the USA space program in our race to the moon. It came between the Mercury and Apollo programs.

Through these three programs, we gained valuable experience necessary to reach the moon. The most notable of these was the EVA or "Space Walk" to see if man could survive in space.

There were a total of 12 Gemini missions between 1964 and 1966. They were all launched aboard the Titan II, which was actually a U.S. Air Force ICBM missile. The Gemini missions provided information on human endurance, the ability to dock with other vehicles and to perfect the re-entry procedure.

All of these were needed to make it to the moon. This kit is the 60th anniversary edition of the Gemini program.
