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.

TEXAS 91:02:24 CC Gemini VII, Gemini VII, Houston CAP COM. 91:02:29 C This is VII, Houston. Loud and clear. 91:02:32 CC Roger. Good morning VII. Are you set up for the crew status report? 91:02:37 C Good morning Houston. We're set up for the crew status report. 91:02:44 CC Roger. Stand by. 91:02:50 CC We have a good temperature. Start on the blood pressure and stand by for the Surgeon. 91:02:58 C Blood pressure coming down. 91:03:11 CC Cuff is full-scale. 91:04:12 CC Gemini VII, we have a valid blood pressure. You can start your exercise. 91:04:17 C Exercise, now. 91:04:20 CC Jim, while Frank is exercising, I'd like to talk with you one second about this food and water report before we get to it. Apparently, I gave you a wrong idea yesterday when we talked about it, and you were giving us details of how much water you had with each meal and that's not what we had in mind. What I'd like for you to do is to just take your M-7 log, the way you have it in your logbook, and just start and read the time and the water in ounces that would appear across from the time that you ate a particular meal package. We have a valid blood pressure, Gemini VII. ## CONFIDENTIAL
