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.

I can't see what's going on. 50:14:37 P Wait a second. One more thing I'd like to get before you - - 50:14:43 C What's that? 50:14:45 P ... drink of water got over my ... 50:14:48 C What do you think I'm going to do? 50:14:50 P I don't know.
