This is Volume I of III of the Gemini VII voice communications transcript, covering pages 1 to 337 and marked Confidential. It records air-to-ground, ground-to-air and on-board exchanges beginning at lift-off. Early passages cover staging, orbit insertion and stationkeeping with the booster, which the crew reports is venting heavily, and they photograph it. Later passages near 116 hours hold the crew's detailed descriptions of airglow, stars and a sunrise seen from orbit.

# CONFIDENTIAL 45:35:07 CC Gemini VII, Carnarvon. 45:35:10 C Go ahead. 45:35:12 CC Roger. They'll update the computer for you during the GO/NO-GO over the States and that's the one that occurs at 46 hours, 14 minutes. They'll also tell you when they want you to turn the computer to the ON position. 45:35:28 C Okay. Thank you. 45:35:30 CC Roger. 45:35:31 C Jim is all out of his suit and comfortable. 45:35:34 CC Hey, very good! 45:36:14 CC Gemini VII, Carnarvon. We're not getting any data on the Pilot. Medical data. Would you check the plug, please? 45:36:20 C He hasn't got it plugged in yet. We'll have that fixed in a minute. 45:36:23 CC Okay. And we're also getting no indications of the clocks counting here on the ground. Would you check to make sure that the time reference system is on? 45:36:31 C Roger. It's off. 45:36:35 CC Roger. What's the reason for that? 45:36:39 C An inadvertent circuit breaker actuation during removing the suit. 45:36:43 CC All right. Fine. We're showing the clocks counting now. 45:36:49 C I'll need an update, please. 45:36:51 CC Let's see, you should be with 2 hours, 11 minutes, 55 seconds. You'll probably drift, so they can update your ... there. 45:37:00 C No, I mean, can you give me a time hack so I can set my digital elapsed timer?
