3 January 1962  - "Gemini" became the official designation of the Mercury Mark II program. 

The name had been suggested by Alex P. Nagy of NASA Headquarters because the twin stars Castor and Pollux in constellation Gemini (the Twins) seemed to him to symbolize the program's two-man crew, its rendezvous mission, and its relation to Mercury. Coincidentally, the astronomical symbol (II) for Gemini, the third constellation of the zodiac, corresponded neatly to the Mark II designation.

Titan I A-3 First Titan

10  x  8  B/W  Glossy NASA Photograph

USAF  No.  PL-59-11448

6 February 1959

The Titan 1 A-3 is seen in the service gantry at Launch Complex 15 at the Cape. The A-3 was the first test launching of the Titan 1 two stage launch vehicle. It was launched with a dummy second stage on 6 February 1959.

The Titan I was built as back-up to the Atlas, using two stages instead of one and a half, and conventional tank construction in lieu of balloon tanks. It was also to have been used for suborbital tests of the X-20A Dynasoar manned space plane. For unknown reasons it was never refurbished for use as space launcher and scrapped after being replaced by the Titan II in the mid-1960's.

Titan 2 Research & Development Flight

10 x 8  Colour Glossy NASA Photograph

NASA No.  PL-63-23768

12 December 1963

The Titan 2 #N-29/61-2752 lifts off from Launch Complex 15 at the Cape and is just about to clear the tower.

In January 1961 the Titan 2 was selected to boost the Dynasoar manned space-plane on suborbital tests, and in July 1961, to orbit the manned Gemini spacecraft. Therefore during development the ICBM had also to be man-rated. This caused some difficulties, as a pogo problem encountered in flight tests was acceptable to the Air Force for a weapon system, but unacceptable to NASA for a manned booster. The problem was solved to NASA's satisfaction, and the Titan went on to a perfect launch record during the Gemini program.

Top Photo: Glenn Ainsworth, experimenter, holds the Passive Dosimeter Unit, and points to where it will be located in the spacecraft. The unit is one of five small packets each containing a standard pocket ionization chamber, gamma-electron sensitive film, glass needles and thermo-luminescent dosimeters which are mounted at various locations in the spacecraft.

Lower Photo: L-R Marion Schneider, Glenn Ainsworth and Joseph Janni are D-8 Experimenters. Schneider holds one of two Tissue Equivalent Ionization Chambers. This chamber can be removed from its bracket by the astronaut who will periodically take measurements at various locations in the spacecraft. The other such chamber is permanently mounted. Janni is holding one of the five Passive Dosimeter Units.
