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.

Standing by. 55:14:53 C Oh, one thing we encountered. We're getting a lot of heat in through the windows, so we took a food container bag and put them in an aluminized food container bag, and we're trying to cut the heat down that could come in through the windows. ## CONFIDENTIAL
